THE RIGHT TRAIL

Senator Culberson in his bill to
regulate campaign expenditures is on
the right trail The only way to make
Corrupt Practices act really eTee-
tive is to limit the amounts that may
be expended in aid of an election as
well as to define the purposes for
which money may be used. BY the
Pennsylvania law it is permitted to
expend money in the dissemination
of information" without limit, anG
this enables a candidate or political
committee to open n Jackpot for any
purpose, from hiring hall to buying
newspaper or a telegraph company
Under the English law every person
who makes an outlay for a candidate
of which the latter knew or could
have known, is regarded as his cleo
ton agent or committee, and II the to-
tai of all expenditures exceeds tho
legal maximum the candidate viii be
held guilty of corrupt influences and
practices.
The CulbersCn bill would entirely
forbid contributions by corporations
and limit the amount that may be
contributed by any single person t.
$4,000 Mccormick and Perkins hav,
probably exceeded this limit many
times. The bill would mark step in
the right direction.

SOLDIER BOYS ARE
POPULAR WITH MINERS

The following letter from an officer
OF Co. f.. w. v. National Guard, which
left this city Saturday evening for the
Paint Greek district to aid in quelling
the Disturbances of the striking min
ers in that section Of Fayette county,
will be read with special interest by
the people of Martinsburg and vicin-
ity. 1t may be stated in this connec-
ton that the company left with 33 Off
GERS and men, and with the seven men
who left here Monday evening the
company will have 40 of the 40 men
enrolled in active service.
Lieut. Frank Whitmore says:
Wacoma, W. Va, August 6.
Editor The World:
Company F arrived at Paint Creek
Junction at 100 Sunday afternoon and
received a hearty welcome from the
soldiers and striking miners encamp-
ed there. Without detraining they
were Immediately sent to their sta
ton at Wacoma, four miles above the
mouth of the creek, and the scene OF
the battle on Thursday last between
the strikers asd mine guards in which
one guard was killed and strike
breaker wounded.
There was then nor has been since
the arrival of the company no signs
of trouble. The town is entirely de-
serted except for about dozen fam
lilies of mine officials and strike
breakers. Everyone seems glad to see
us except the mine guards. These
same guards are the cause of all the
trouble In this section and which was
caused by the methods used by them
in ejecting the strikers from the COM
pany houses.
The boys of Co. F are comfortably
quartered in camp cheerful and are
happy and contented. The only event
in our quiet life is the fact that Cap
tain Viewer is raising mustache that
looks like foggy morning.
At the present time it is impossible
to say how long the trouble will last
as it is reported that the miners on
Cation and Loop creeks will go out. II
that occurs it will be some time before
the strike trouble is settled.
The militia are very popular and
there is no danger of any trouble to
them.

THE UPPERMosT ISSUE

The proper exercise of the taxing
power by either Federal State or To-
cal authorities is solely for the pur-
pose of getting money needed for pub
lie purposes in the promotion of the
general welfare. To take money from
one man and give 1t to another for his
private use, under the nreteXt Of rails
ing public revenue. Is o rank and III
defensible abuse of power, The favor
itism is none the less scandalous
when millions of taxpayers are made
to pay tribute for the purpose of en-
ricLing hundreds. Yet this abuse of
the taxing power is the actual basis
Of the doctrine Of protection" Hav-
ing once obtained undue preferences
in the making of tariff rates. nothing
is easier or seemingly more ready of
proof than 10 show that an abandon
ment of The protective rates would cn
barass the beneficiaries of the system.
Herein lies the fundamental weak
ness of President Taft's plea in jIs
tificatlon OF the tariff policy Of his
party and his administration. Whilst
partially admitting the abuses that
have grown up UEder the fostering
hand Of party fayoritism, he deplores
the decisive ending of these abuses
through the adoption OF strictly rev
enue basis of taxation. He forgcts
tho travail Of the millions in pity for
the cry of complaining cormorahts.
He wont hamper corrective action at
the hands Of Congress by appointing
an inconclusiVe termediary Tariff
Board TO postpoe the day of delivery
from seated evil.
The tariff is the uppern.ost issue be
tween parties II cannot be sidetraek-
ed by either OF the factions which d.
vide the Republican party. II is un.
fortunate for the country that any
plea in avoidance should be put forth
for delaying eXpedients in reaching a
final test of the popular will.
