straw vote to ascertain whether a
majority of the Democracy in Pleas

"a coupon ballot was printed in the
paper to facilitate the voting. With

narrows the Democratic hope OF
presidential victory down to few
states and it holds out but little, Il
any, hope Of its party's carrying
them. 1t makes the frank admission
as follows in reference to the West
and ITS words are especially signti-
cant owing to the fact that the
Democratic newspapers in this state
less yersed, as to political conditions
nationally than the Gazette are try
ling to hold out the idea that Repub.

There is sound sense in the. fol-
lowing review by the Blueaeld Tele-
graph:
In his columbus, o., speech Pres.
ident Taft said that it was not within
the province OF political parties to
create heaven on earth and it wal
not for him tn make any such prom.
Uses for the Republican party.
The ideaiists set forth beautiful
pictures and then unfairly make con-
trasts with actual conditions. They
paint the pictures, but they fall
down when they undertake to put
their theories into practice or to in
struct others how to do so.
The Republicans, he said, had been
progressive enough to adopt all the
Legislation that progress demanded.
He felt that the Republican party
had done reasonably and fairly we'll
in Its administration OF the govern
ment in the last four years. The
president firmly believes that the
Republican party will be successful
and he bases his belief on the intel
Iligenee and discrimination of the
American people.
With the people who are content
to have good government without
the turmoil, who accord credit for
duty we'll done, who favor stability
and order. President Taft stands
we'll.
He says he can not promise to
reform the world in a day, and he
shows his sincerity Of purpose by so
stating. de would not secure the
support of the people by making big
promises that he had no hope or
idea OF keeping, but simply ana
plainly tells the people that he and
his party are ready to put into OPP
GRAFTON all the necessary legislation
that is progressive.

clares that the olive branch is being

That olive branch is creased with
the ambition Of one of the Demo.

present position. There seems to be
"a fear, however, on the part of the
Democratic state machine that the

nate candidates for the legislature.

Immediately following a visit
of Senator Watson to Wheeling the

with an editorial condemning straw

attached to the coincidence, but We
can not help remembering that only
Ia few weeks ago the Register was

The foregoing scheme to, obyiate
useless straw voting on fed
eral senatorial candidates and
the idea of condemnlhg straw
votes in general are hereby
commended to the Clarksburg Elk
ponent for future reference. "A year
or so ago the Exponent was in the
straw vote ballng business for few
weeks, hut, to use slang express
sion, it became "all balled up" in
the occupation and 1t has been in
shame and disgrace in regard to it
ever since.
AS the time draws near when the
demand shall be Forthcoming from
the Democratic rank and ale for u

series Of editorials denouncing the
.rightful wickedness and lese majesty
of straw votes. Then, 1T could have
a meeting of its gang, pass a resolu-
ton Of alarm and send out circular
letters notifying Democrats not to
have anything to do with straw
votes HERD or elsewhere "for the
good OF the party" The situation
being thus clarified and the field
cleared for proper action, the Elk
ponent could set up its baling ma

to the federal senate
OF course there may be other
schemes under consideration in the
Exponent office but those here men
toned seem to be great deal better
than the one used last year.

Against the Passage Of the.
Webb Bill BY the Fed
eral Congress-.

ID J 4. b. s /
CHICAGO. Feb. s.The National
wholesale Liquor Dealers Associa-
ton, through its president Thomas
G. Dennehy has Issued formal protest
against the passage by Congress Of
the Webb bill which is intended to
.divest Intoxicating liquors OF their
interstate commerce character in GER
tain cases, The bill was drafted by a
committee composed Of representa-
tives Of the National W. G. T! U. and
the ,Antt7saloon League and others
interested,
The bin, which is now in the hands
Of the judiciary Committee Of Con-
gress, would prevent the shipment OF
any alcoholic liquors from one state
into another when such shipment is
intended to be used in any manner
in violation Of any prohibition law
Of the state into which It is shipped.
1t also provides that all contracts
based upon such shipments shall be
null and void and that no suit or ac-
ton shall be maintained in any court
upon such contracts or for the en-
forcement or protection ofany rights
growing out Of the contracts.
Mr.. Dennehy's protest issued by the
National Wholesale Druggfsts' Ar
sociationy which sees in the Webb bill
an attempt to prevent the necessary
use OF alcohol in pharmaceutical
preparations, perfumerN medicines
and fIavoring extracts The Drug
gists' Association claims that the
passage Of the bill would prevent the
use by 10000 retail drug stores of
alcohol as an extractive agent and in
filling doctors' prescriptions.
President Dennehy, Of the Liquor
Dealers Association, takes exception,
among other features of the bill, to
the tact that shipment of liquors into
"dry" territory can be held up not
upon showing Of facts, but upon a
presumption of intent" "a resident
dealer in any ether city," he says,
might purchase from a distiller in
Kentucky and order shipped to a
warehouse III another state a carload
Of whisky which could be held up in
definitely by the United States gov
eminent upon a warrant sworn out
by any one Who IL willing to alege
that it was the intent Of the owner
of the whisky to sell portion Of ii
in dry terfitcfyy.l Thus the owner
Of the carload of whisky, upon which
the United States internal revenue
tax of $1.1O per gallon has been paid,
would be deprived OF its value while
IL was held in litigation and would be
obliged to attend a sitting of the
United States court and clear himself
Of the alleged intent to sell any por-
ton Of the goods in dry territory.
m addition the Contract for the pur-
chase of this whisky would be null
and void" E 20 ne"
