five men who are big enough to be
President" he says. 1T is possible
for only one of them to be nominal

stand for something and who are
giant figures known the country over
and choose for the vice-Presidential
nomination one who is practically
unknown or who is of only Vice
Presidential size? He would add no
strength to the ticket. In my judg-
ment, the man who is second on the
final ballot for the. Presidency should
be. the nominee for Vce-President

A Machine Affair.

Tuesdays Republican primary was
strictly the Republican Machines af-
fair. The Machine peope turned out
en- masse, and the anti-Machine peo-
pie certainly large majority Of
them stayed at home. The result
was that DR.. Hatfield, the Machines
choice, won by an overwhelming
vote, very large proportion Of
which came from the Norfolk and
Western counties, otherwise known
as the BLACK Belt where Doctor
Hatfield has long been able to whis-
tie up any number of votes upon the
shortest possible notice. 1t will be
different when the November cleo
ton comes off. Doctor Hatfield s
defeat at the hands of the Demo
cratic candidate, Is almost foregone
conclusion. The people Of West
Virginia are determined that the
discredited Republican Machine shall
not resume business at the old stand
in the State House at Charleston

that you got them by patronage,

1t is predicted that Congress may
remain in session until late in Au-
gust, or even early in September.
The general belief is that President
Taft will veto two big appropriation
bflls-the legislative, executive and
judicial budger, on account of the
abolishment of the Commerce court
by the House and Senate, and the
army bill, because of the rider dis
placing General Wood, Chief of Staff.
This, 1t is expected, Will force a
deadlock between the executive and
Legislative branches. A movement
has been started in anticipation of
this situation, to continue over into
July the existing appropriations for
the fiscal year ending June 49,
1t swill cause great grief among
the Departments, for it, interfefes
with their system of bookkeeping
All books in the various branches
are supposed to be balaneedsby July
LIST, and Congress always tries to
pass the appropriations before that
date on that account. When 1t hap
pens that Congress fails to execute
the necessary legislation, all plans
in the Departments smiscary. and
much greater work in accounting is
entailed. There seems to beene help
for It this year. however, in view OF
the present outlook.
