PRoGRESslVEs MAD
AT DR.. HATFIELD
Many Desert Him and viii Support
Thompson, Democrat, For
Governor.

Grafton, w Va. Sept, 16-Hundreds
of letters have been received at DEM
ocratic State headquarters at Parkers-
burg from Progressive Republicans
stating they will vote for William r.
Thompson, the Democratic nominee
for Governor, because of the attitude
DR. II. d, Hatfield, the Republican nom
inee, has assumed toward Roosevelt.
Hatfield was at the Chicago conven-
ton and now a ardent Roosevelt man
but has turned TOT aft.
Word has been received ut West Viz
ginia Democratic headquarters that
the Republican county committee of
Calhoun county has removed from
the ticket Beeman Wright, the Repub-
lican nominee for House of Delegates,
and substituted S. f. Fleming. The rca-
son given is that Mr.. Wright was sup
porting for county Office candidate
who was not on the Republican tick
ct. Should this policy be followed
throughout the State, it probably
would remove candidates by the whole
sale from the Republican tickets.
Among the local candidates Oh the Re
publican tickets in various counties
are numerous persons who are openly
advocating the election of Roosevelt.

OF revenue TO him. In addition he con-
tributed $1,000 to the Democratic Ma
tional committee
There can be no better way to prove
loyalty. patriotism and sincerity than
this No man can impugu the motive
of Mr., Bryan in making this sacrifice.
1t is an evidence of his devotion to
the cause. of his determination to do
everything in his power to bring about
the election OF Wilson and Marshall
In addition it is said Mr. Bryan de-
chned to consider an offer of recon-
pense for his services. His expenses
are being paid out of his own pocket.
No stronger proof of his earnestness
of purpose can be offered than this
sejf-sacrifice on the part OF Mr.. Bryan.

FIRST DAYS
VERY SURPRISING
The Worlds Straw Vote at the In.
Wood Fair Shows Democrats
Far in the Lead

At the Inwood fair this week The
World is taking a straw vote for the
purpose Of ascertaining the sentiment
of the voters who visit the fair. The
first Gay of the fair far exceeded ex-
pectations, as q small crowd was ex-
pected and not large vote was look
ed for. Those who were present took
advantage Of the opportunity to ex-
press their preferences of the presi-
Dental and gubernatorial candidates,
and the vote was somewhat surpris-
ing.
In all, there were fifty-seven votes
cast and Governor Wilson and Hon
VIM. r. Thompson simply ran away
from all contenders, and when the
votes were counted last night it was
discovered hat they were far ahead
The World desires it ind erstood that
everybody is invited to participate in
this straw vote regardless of politics.
Everybody will be welcomed at the
booth, and will be furnished with bal
lots. The voting is conducted secret
~, and no one is permitted to know
how another votes. The World urges
all who attend the fair to visit the
booth and cast vote, as this will
prove a great aid to those who are in
terested in the approaching election
to get a correct idea of the situation
The result of yesterdays voting is
as follows:

was President Mr. Roosevelt got so far
along on the way the Democrats We're

sisted that the voters had a right to

The largest contributions are three
Of $4,000 each tlJo OF $4,000 each, three
Of $500 each, one of $1,000. sixteen Of
$1,000 each, and so on down 10 800
and $50, and so many for much small
er sums, down to ten cents, that the
committee viii need million dollars
or more from now on, and it ought to
get IT, This publication ought to help
/, to get contributions, because It
shows clearly enough that no one is
getting a mortgage on the party no
one is laying the party under great OBJ
legations to him. Several Of the per
sons who have contributed from 800
to $1,000 are abuadantly able to give
very much more, and we hope they
will do it, We have no objections TO
large contributions, and Democrats
who are worth five to ten millions
ought to give more than 500 or $1,000.
There is no danger in large contribu-
tons that are not given in secret No
party VIII legisiate in the interest Of
a man or class OF men whose poiiti-
cal contributions are made openly.

This count shows that Wilson, in
the ballots cas-, had a clear majority
of 40 over all candidates. OF the num-
Der who indicated a preference for
Wilson 276 voted for Taft four years
ago, 1852 voted for Bryan, 81 for Debs,
and ia did not state for whom they
voted. OF the 576 who indicated a
preference for Roosevelt 416 had vet
ed for Taft and 1O3 for Bryan. Thus
Wilson gained practically "a votes
from the Republicans for every one
that he lost to Roosevelt. Another sig
nificant fact in connection with the
straw vote is that the large majority
of those who expressed a preference
Tor Debs voted for Taft four years
ago.

THE POLICY.

Secretary Joseph L. Davis. western
manager Of The Democratic National
committee, has announced Of the pol
icy of the committee in regard to
campaign contributions. Mr.. Davis
said:
The Democratic National commit
tee has placed no limit on the size of
the individual inscriptions to its
campaign fund and will not do so, 1t
is the character and motive OF the
subscriber and not the size of the con
Uibution that viii determine its ac-
ceptability There are an unlimited
number of patriotic and disinterested
people in this country devoted to the
cause OF clean government from whom
subscriptions in any amount will be
gladly received The Democratic fight
is for the recovery of the government
in the interest of the people and in
order to effect that recovery, we shall
not limit the number of the coutu-
butors nor the size OF the contribu-
tons when they emanate from the
proper source and are inspired by the
proper motive

In every month from Mr.. Cleveland
election till after the panic there were
more persons employed than in the
corresponding month year before
The Commercial and Financial Chron-
icle of November II, 1898, said
We have been able to compile a
statement embracing eleven of the
corporations fall River cotton mills,)
and it will be seen therefore that the
net earnings for the past year have
been $1,524349, against $1,1S5,167 in
1892. =. The ratio of earnings to cap
ital was in 1898 over II ga per cent,
whereas in the previous year it reach
ed but Is IL per cent; in 1891 it was
only per cent. Thirty-siX estab-
lishments with an aggregate capital of
$21,15S000 returned to shareholders
S1,7O3,310 in 1893, or an average of 1856
per cent against slap, or 1852 per
cent in 1892"
VIII any man face these figures and
repeat that the threat OF a Democratic
tariff caused commercial explosion?
Mr.. Justice says the Wilson tariff
was al ldilult do q lCN CluC plphuNVl'
The revenue from customs for the last
year of the Mckinley tariff and for
each year of the Wilson tariff was as
follows
1884 Mckinley ,........ $l31,S1S,53O
1S95-Wilson ......,,... 152,15S,617
1S96-Wilson ,......,... 160,O21,731
1S97-Wilson ........... 176,554126
The Wilson tariff was a failure as a
revenue producer, was it? Why, it
never produced so little as in the last
year of the Mckinley tariff, and in
three years it produced Sass 100000,
while in the three preceding years the
Mckinley tariff produced $512 900 900.
The Wilson tariff produced an average
OF $S,0OO,00O less than the Mckinley
tariff.
That fact alone, contrasted with the
amounts of bonds issued between 1893
and 1896 is conclusive evidence that
the bonds were not issued on account
of the insufficient revenue. The silver
purchase law enacted by the Republi-
can party had caused seventy or eigh-
ty millions OF gold to be withdrawn
from the Treasury and had put into
circulation a vast amount of Treasury
notes which must be kept redeemable
in gold, if the existing money unit
were to be preserved The Harrison
Administration borrowed few mil
lions of gold in order to keep the gold
reserve above $100,0O0000 until it
