2 What is the use OF Col.s John. t,
McGfaw's entering the United States
senatorial race which he says he
will dog
The Grafton statesman need labor
under no delusion. He knows. that
the Democratic state machinery is
under the absolute control of Sena-
tors Clarence w. Watson and Will
liam E. Chiffon, the latter of whom
has been a bitter party enemy of Nc
Graw for years. He knows that Wat
son is getting control of the county
machineries, too. The senatorial
machinery is also his as evidenced
at several senatorial conventions,
where Watson men have been nomi-
mated for the state senate Clarence
w. Watson is in the saddle in the
Democratic party of West Virginia
and no man need undertake to deny
this self-evident fact. Heis the big
boss in the party now and as such
he gets his selections through the
conventions, dictates the platform
and policies and names the various
party officials.
There Is but one way to dethrone
Senator Watson politically and that
Is to elect Republican legislature.
The candidacy of Col McGraw will
not down Watson, nor will the can
didacy OF any other Democrat it
matters not how high or able he be.
Watson, has a grasp on the Demo-
cratic party and 1t can only De re
moved by sending Republicans to
the legislature instead of Democrats.
Senator watson's miraculously
rapid enforcement asI the real
Democratic boss in this state is wett
described by the Wheeling 1ntelli-
gehcer as follows, in which 1t is
brought out that his position as a
party dictator is far more command
ing now than when he started out to
be elected United States senator:
Commenting upon The nomination
of C. w Watson for the State Senate
from Randolph county in opposition
to the choice of the large majority
of Randolph county Democrats, the
Tygart Valley News, Democratic,
says:
at seems rather strange that the
leading Republican in town knew
who was going to be the nominee
at the recent senatorial convention

The people Of cIarksburg IN par
tieuiar have good reason TO be-
thankful that a stronE minded, con-
scientious man Of the Republican
faith is at this time sitting In the
presidential chair. There happens
to be no wooden industry at present
IN this city, but the farmers Of this

member the disastrous times back
in the nineties when they got only
fifteen or eighteen cents a pound for
Il e
I There Is equal, probably a greater,
cause for thanks on the part of local
people that President Taft has We
toed the Democratic metals schedule
and they should hope that the fed
eral senate will stand between the
action of the Democratic House of
representatives in passing the sched-
ule over the presidents veto and the
inevitable disaster that would result
to the steel. iron and tin industries.
should the bill be put in operation.
The people of Clarksburg have had
a close hand touch Of the operation
of protective tariff so far as the
tin plate industry is concerned. They
see as Ms result the steady employ
ment of more than thousand work
men at excellent wages at a large tin
plate plant in an eastern suburb and
they feel the prosperous effects OF
that industry in the circulation OF
between $4,000 and 100000 in
cash every month in the usual chan
neis Of local trade.
President Taft pointed out In his
message yetoing the metals sched-
uIes that the measure would AFFECT
not only the iron and steel industries
but fifty-nine allied industries. He
also reminded Congress that the bill
provided for "a reduction of fifteen
per cent as compared with the VIII
son-Gorman bill of the second cleve-
land administration, which bill, by
the way, closed industries of iron
and steel mills throughout the
country and threw thousands of
workingmen out of employment. 1t
8, indeed, fortunate that any repe-
titlon OF that calamity should be
avoided now by President Taft and
the example OF what would IN
doubtedly happen should woodrow
Wilson and a Democratic congress
sional majority be. elected this fall
Should leave upon local people a
deep and lasting impression.

De Laval Cream Separators excel
other separators not only in thorough
ness of separation, sanitary cleanli-
ness, ease of running and durability
but as we'll in their great simplicity.
There is nothing about the opera
ton, cleaning, adjustment or repair of
which requires expert knowledge or
special tools
Nor are there any parts of which
adjustmen, is cQ:.untly necessary to
maintain good running or to conform
to varying conditions in the everyday
use of cream separator.
There is no need to fit and adjust
parts to get them together right. They
are so made that they cannot help go
together right. All bearings and BUSH
ings are easy to replace. There are
no complicated springs, eys, ball bear
ings or other fittings, that only an
expert can properly adjust.
A person who has never touched a
separator before can, if need be, un-
assemble modern De Laval machine
down to the last part within a few
minutes and then reassemble it again
as quickly. This is something which
cannot be done outside a shop with
any other separator.
The only way to properly understand
and appreciate De Laval superiority to
other separators is to look over, and
better still to try, 1912 De Laval
machine. Every De Laval agent is
glad to afford prospective buyers the
opportunity to see and try De Laval
Separator.
