THE Taft people in West Virginia find
themselves in very serious quandary,
and unless new electors are chosen there
will be no opportunity for anyone TO vote
for the President. AT the State conven-
ton, held before the presidential conven-
ton, the Roosevelt supporters were in
full power, and naturally they nominated
electors who favored Roosevelt. Under
ordinary circumstances these electors
would vote for the Republican nominee,
but now that there is third ticket with
Roosevelt at its head they will vote for
their original choice. The only way in
which new set OF electors can be set up
is to circulate petitions to add them to the
ticket. There is not much comfort in
the situation for the President and his
friends.

WITH his accustomed narowness and
obstinacy, President Taft has vetoed the
excellent bill passed by both houses OF
Congress revising the most infamous of
all tariff schedules-Schedule X, relating
to wool and wooden goods. Although
this is considered tc be the most unjust
and indefensible OF the many rotten pro-
visions of the Payne-Aldrich bill, the
President shuts his eyes and with blind
partisan zeal forbids its correction. He
says that he will stand by his pledges to
maintain protective duties and declares
that he will not sign any bill that fails to
recognize the recommendations of the
Tariff Board-a body that has long since
been discredited. The Presidents rea-
sons are absolutely puerile, and his veto
shows how entirely he is dominated by
the trusts.
Mr.. Taft means to veto also the bills
providing for reduction in the tariff on
cotton goods and steel products--a mis-
use of power that is little short 81 erimi-

THE Republicans of this district held
their judicial convention at Berkeley
Springs last Saturday and nominated
Hon. Tracy L. Jeffords, of Harper's Fer
ry, for Judge OF this circuit.
We don't know what our Republican
friends would do without Mr.. Jeffods.
He is always ready to offer himself on
the political altar, and no matter whether
the office be great or humble-legislative,
executive or iudicial-he is willing to be
the goat. We do not recall any campaign
OF recent years in which he has not been
candidate for something or other, and
though he has never yet come anywhere
near having look-in, here he comes up
smiling and cheerful again. We cannot
but admire such amiable persistence, and
we almost feel like voting for him.

THE House of Representatives on
Tuesday passed the wool bill over Pres
ident Taft's veto by two-thirdS major
ity, some twenty Republicans voting with
the Democrats. This shows what regard
Congressman have for the President and
his veto logic. Unfortunately Tor the
people, there is little hope for similar
action in the Senate.

Senatorial Committee Dodges the
Real Issue.

Washington, March 27-The
special committee of eight Senators
which has been investigating the
election of Senator Lorimer indicat
ed today by a test vote that it stands
5 to 3 in his favor
The majority of the committee has
adopted the contention by Senator
Lorimers counsel. that the Senate
having passed upon the senator's
case once and declared his election
valid, cannot try him again on the
same charge. Such a resolution will
be reported by the majority of the
committee
A motion today to close the com
mittees vote upon its report tomor-
row was defeated, to 8. This was
taken as a forecast OF how the com
mittee stands on the case.
Though from today's voting it an
pears that a majority of the inyesti
eating committee favor Mr.. Lorimer
the personnel of the Senate has SC
changed since the first investigation
that the outcome if the case comes
to a vote is conjectural.

defeat him by methods which he
characterized as Infamous. Part OF
Col Roosevelt's speech was devoted
to big business" He opposed "our
present policy of chaos and gave his
own ideas of the methods which
should be pursued to insure strict
regulation of large corporations.
Chicago gave the former president
lively welcome Crowds cheered
him at the station when he arrived
and whenever he appeared during
the nine hours OF his stay there. The
auditorium was large enough only TO
hold a part of those who sought ad-
mission. Though two other meetings
were held, many persons who wishe
to hear Col. Roosevelt We're unable to
do so. Two hours before the Audi
forum was opened a crowd had gath
cred at the doors. A line of persons
four abreast was formed and grew
steadily until it extended for two
blocks in each direction. When Col
Roosevelt entered the building the
people rose with a cheer For two
minutes the cheering continued and
during his speech he was frequently
interrupted by applause. During his
brief stay in Chicago Col. Roosevelt
found time to meet the leaders OF
the Roosevelt movement in Illinois
and several hundred political work
ers in Chicago

A STRAW VOTE ROW
Counter Claims Relative to One At
Brattleboro

A dispatch dated at Brattleboro
and printed today in the Rutland
Herald and Boston Globe is as fol-
lows
"The ingenious device by which
the straw vote is being worked to
the apparent advantage of the Roose-
welt campaign has just been disclosed
in this county There has been go
ing on about the state more or less
of the straw vote business and the
innocent looking postcard asking the
recipient to indicate on the attached
card his choice for president has put
in its appearance here. 1t purports
to be sent out by the Deerfeld Valley
Times newspaper at Wilmington.
It's origin however, has been traced
to the Office of a Brattleboro lawyer
who is undertaking to manage the
Roosevelt campaign here. The mail
ing is done from his Office and the
card bears the post mark Brattle
boro,' instead of Wilmington.
"The card asks the recipient to in
dictate his choice by mark on the
attached card and return, but tells
him that he need not Sign his name
unless he wishes"
1.-TWO cards are often sent to the
same man so he can have two votes
if he chooses. SO far as can be
learned this lawyer has been careful
to mail them to Roosevelt men or to
democrats. The instance has not
yet appeared where anybody but a
known Roosevelt supporter or a dem
ocrat has received a card 1t is ex-
pected that the result of this canvass
will show an overwhelming majority
for Roosevelt for the reason that the
other people don't get a chance to
vote. One Roosevelt enthusiast was
busy today going about with the
cards and trying to get men to sign
them. The bunch OF replies from
these efforts will Of course all be fol
Roosevelt choice"
The Roosevelt bureau at Brattle
boro makes prompt denial OF the
truth of the statements in the above
dispatch. f, w. Gibson, for that
bureau, states that every attempt has
been made TO have the vote a fail
test He says that the list to which
I the ballots were sent was made on
by a supporter of Taft and was pre-
pared not only without reference {
their preference, but without an,
knowledge thereof.
