az ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, August lS.-The
third veto message of President Taft
will be sent to the House of Repre-
sentatives this afternoon. The meas
ure that today will fall under, the
executive ban is the Farmers Free
List bill. The other measures
that have met with the presidential
dlsapproval are the Arizona and New
Mexico statehood bill and the Wool
Tariff Revision bill. ...... ...-
The president sent to the house
late yesterday his message vetoing
the wool tariff bill When Demo
cratic leader Underwood announced
after the reading Of the veto that he
would call it up in the house to-
day for passage over the presidents
veto, the Democrats cheered. While
there is sufficient majority in the
house to pass the measure in that
body over the veto, the prospect in
the senate Is different. .... :
In his veto, President Taft char
acterized the wool tariff revision bill
as the blend of an avowed tariff for
revenue and anti-protection measure
with professed protection bill. He
declared the measure was not in har-
mony with the platform On which he
was elected and opposed any tariff
disturbance until the report of the
TariT Board was available.

Cen. ELLIOTT DENIES
FAKE FROM WASNCT TON;
NOT FOR la Toilette
Adjutant General is
a Regular and Not
Insurgent

In Washington dispatch to the
Wheeling Intelligencer of yesterday
it was stated that the La Follette
forces would endeavor to make a
showing in West Virginia for the
Illinois senator for the presidential
nomination, and Adjutant General
Charles D. Elliott was credited with
the leadership Of the so-called La
Toilette movement. 1t was stated
that General Elliott, upon frequent
visits to Washington recently, had
closely hob-nobbed with La Fol-
lette,s close friends and supporters.
The friends of the General here i'll
Charleston were absolutely certain
that there was no. truth in the state
ment, but to make assurance doubly
sure the General, who is now at
Camp Perry, Ohio, in charge Of the
West Virginia rifle team at the in
terDational shoot, was wired last
night, and in reply to which he to-
day sends the following by long dis
lance:
'The statement from Washington
contained III the Intelligencer is alb
sclutely false. have not the honor
even Of Senator La Follette's ac-
ruaintanco and have not been in
communication with him either di-
rcctly or indirectly. l have not been
in Washington in many weeks. -.....
Il am CevotiDg my entire time to
the West Vlr&inia rue team here at
Camp Perry, and believe me, we are
making them watch US. In the en-
listed mems match our team was
fou"sh and We are sc ing to be away
up the list when the tig matches be-
gin September 2%d." .--.
Local politicians declared, upon
reading the 'ntelligence1 article from
Washington, that Gen. Elliott would
be one OF the last to kick over the
regular Republican traces. Just
upon what the Intelligencer's cor
respondent based his declarations is
not known, but surely not upon any
action CT the Generals looking to
the furtherance Of La Toilette
movement in West Virginia. This
state IS unchangeably for President
Taft for denomination as matters
now stand, and unless an almost
| miraculous change should be brought
about between this date and the
holding CT the national convention
West Virginia will vote solidty foi
the President for another term.

JACKSON COUNTY MAN
OUT FOR NOMINATIONS
BY DISTRICT PRIMARIES
Hon. Elmer L. Stone
For Giving Every
Voter Chance .
THE NEWS OF
THE CAPITOL

Prominent among the recent visi-
tors at the capital was Hon. Elmer
l.. Stone, OF Ripley, successful at
torney of Jackson county and one
of the strong Republicans of that
rock-ribbed county. Attorney Store
will be candidate next year for the
Republican nomination for Circuit
Judge in his judicial circuit and he
has the qualifications to make a sue
cessful jurist. ;
During his visit here, Attorney
Stone was asked for statement
with reference to the best method Of
making nominations for the next
campaign. He replied:
Il have always been in favor Of
giving every Republican a direct OPP
portunity of saying who shall be
placed upon his ticket to be voted for
by him. note that the demand for
this right is growing stronger all over
the State all the time, and / think
it is just demand which should
be given to every voter. Why should
not every man who is expected to sup
port the ticket at the polls, be given
free and open chance to say who
shall be placed upon. that ticket?
Delegate convention, as they have
been heretofore held by both the
great political parties OF this State,
have become very unsatisfactory to
the masses and they are demanding
that by some proper primary election
they be permitted to have voice in
the nomination of all candidates, both
State, district and county. :.
81 believe that the best interest OF
the party will be subserved if the
Delegates to the Republican State
Convention of 1912, be selected by
Magisterial District Primary Elec-
tions, making the District unit,
so that in every section of every
County in the State every Republican
will have the opportunity Of saying
by his vote who the Delegates elected
shall support in the convention L
believe that an immense majority of
the Republican party is in favor Of a
primary election which will give ev-
cry member of the party a direct
voice in making the ticket to be sup
ported by him at the polls in 1912.
SO far as l am individually concerned,
as a Candidate for the nomination
for Judge of the judicial Circuit "'in
which | live, / am willing and anx-
ious that every EcD"J,: ocn shall say
at primary election by his direct
vote who shall be his Candidate for
that office, and when he shall have
thus spoken, will be perfectly salts
fed with the result. If this voice
is given to every Republican voter By
a proper primary election, I have not
the slightest doubt that the grand old
party will, in 1912, achieve at the
polls one Of the greatest victories she
has ever won in this State"
