lawyer but has spent most of his life
in politics.
His political career almost from the
time he became a lawyer has been
checkered one and indicates unstable
ness. 1t is so full of inconsistencies
that he might justly be termed the great
est political acrobat in the State.
In his earlier years, when the Sixth
District seemed hopelessly Republican,
David ]. Lewis appeared upon the plat.
form as staunch Republican. advocat-
inglhigh protection among the miners
Of Allegany county. He got no sub
stantial recognitionIfrom his party there
the Republican party.
He next became a Populist and we
find him managing and controlling a
Populist convention in Cumberland and
writing its platform, drastic as it was.
When the Populists died out as party
Mr.. Lewis took another jump and be-
came a Democrat, or at least Joined
that party and his political ambition
was gratified for a time. He was sent
to the State Senate and to Congress as
a Democrat. He is now a FREE
TRADE DEMOCRAT and has so an.
nounced himself. He was among those
Democrats who advocated a reduction
of the tariff on wool and subsequently
voted that way. In an interview early
IN the late session of Congress he said
he wanted to see the entire duty taken
off of wool.
1t is we'll known that Mr. Lewis has
original ideas upon subjects of great
public interest but they are more or
less regarded as not orthodox. His
political somersauIts have been amaz-
ing and show rather conclusively that
he is unstable and lacking in profound
political thought on conviction.
One can agree or disagree with Mr..
Wagaman' policies and convictions on
public questions, but no one who knows
him can question the absolute consis-
tency of his policies and the sincerity
and intelligence of his purpose should
he elected. In their respective careers,
Mr.. Wagaman certainly has the most
to be commended.

COMPETITION OF WORKMEN.

In a speech which he made in the west
last week Woodrow Wilson, Democratic
nominee for president of the United
States, through trying to persuade
American workman that it was to their
interest to have the tariff reduced, told
them that there were places in Europe
where the wages of workmen were only
one-third the wages paid to Americans
engaged in similar trades in this country.
Mr.. Wilson would have the American
workmen believe that his condition
would be improved if our tariffs should
be lowered or removed, so that the pro-
ducts of labor employed at only one
third of the American wage would have
easy or free access to the markets of the
United States.
Does any American workmen believe
that it is for his good to be brought into
competition with workmen who receive
only one-third the sum that is paid to
him?
Mr.. Wilson, who hopes to be elected
president by the votes of workmen
promises thatif he is elected and Dem
ocratic Congress with him their first act
will be to establish such competition.
Mr.. Wilson proposes to widen the
market for labor by destroying the pro-
lection which is now given to the Ameri-
can workman, so that the products of
cheaper labor may compete with his.
He would widen it by making it neces-
sary for American workmen to spread
themselves over the country in search
of jobs. The platform of the Demo-
cratic party upon which Wilson stands
says: I'VE favor the immediate down
ward revision Of the high and in many
cases prohibitive tariff duties. THE
Federal government under the con-
stitution has no right or power to
impose or collect duties except for
revenue"
Wilson and the Democratic party are
hostile to protection and promise i'm
mediate downward revision so that
American workmen will at once be
brought into competition with men who
work for one-third less than they do.
Is there any nourishment for the Ameri-
can workman in such policy? Will it
buy food for his family? Will it buy
clothes? Will it provide coal for the
winter? Will ii pay rent? These are
questions for American workmen to
consider carefully between now and
November 5, when they will answer
with their votes.

A COMPARISON OF CANDIDATES.

The respective merits of Mr. Charles
D. Wagaman and Mr.. David j. Lewis
as candidates for Congress, both from
a personal and political point of view,
are of great interest to the public. The
people of the county are not Indifferent
to the qualifications and merit of can
didate for this important office and
their conclusions in the matter will
have to do with the results on election
day.
The personal reputation ofMr. Waga-
man and the career and conduct that
have so established it among his fellow
citizens need not be dwelt upon here.
1t is recognized and favorably COM
mented upon everywhere in the district.
His professional ability as one of the
very best lawyers in the State, is
equally recognized and acknowledged,
so that this need not be enlarged upon.
His political record is of equal impor-
tance to the people.
After the admission to the bar he
was elected States Attorney for Wash
inpton county on the Republican ticket.
He has held no other office but has
given his services to his party all
through the intervening years wherever
and whenever called upon, and has al
ways consistently advocated the prlnci-
pie of protection and sound finance.
There can be no question as to his posi-
ton on these two fundamental prin-
ciples.
He regards them as the essentials in
our governmental policy. Time and
again the electorate Of Western Mary
land by overwhelming majorities has
endorsed and sustained this policy and
today the sentiment of protection is
stronger than ever with the people.
Therefore there can be no question of
the fact that Mr.. Wagaman represents
and can be trusted to support in Con-
gress the legislation desired by vast
majority of his constituents.
Mr.. Lewis personal character and
reputation is creditable. He also is a

THE SHOOTING OF ROOSEVELT

The American people rejoice that
Theodore Roosevelt was spared from
the assassin. Papers found upon the as
sailant would indicate that the man IS of
unsound mind. None other, indeed,
could be guilty Of so heinous a crime.
That his attempt was not successful IS
reason for universal qualification; for
grief would have been worldwide had a
bullet brought to so tragic close the
brilliant career of Theodore Roosevelt.
The assassin has no place in the Ameri-
can commonwealth. Neither statute
nor sentiment sanction the adjustment
Of a grievance with the pistol. The
murderer receives short shrift, and the
man whose disordered intellect impels
him to attempt the life of an individual
engaged in work of public service, in
the belief that he is promoting some
common good, can expect no mercy from
the law or outraged public opinion.
The assassination of President Nc
Kinley is still fresh in the public mind;
and no less bitter would have been the
nations grief and no less keen the sense
of loss had Roosevelt similarly followed
the man who was once his chief. AS it
is, Roosevelt luck still holds good, and
the people sincerely congratulate him
on his fortunate escape while eXecrating
the hand that was raised against him.

A Head-On Collision.

There was head-on collision on the
Western Maryland at Henry, W. Va,
on Saturday morning between train No.
$50 and an east bound extra. From
what can be learned in regard to the
collision the switch on the Henry pass
ing siding had been left open by mis-
take and when SO reached this point the
engine 407 took the siding and dashed
into engine All of the extra, damaging
the locomotive considerably and injuring
a couple of the train crew. All traffic
was DELAYED for several hours. Pass
enger trains Nos. l and 2 had to trans
fer passengers. Vogel's private car of
minstrels, who were booked for the
Piedmont Opera House, did not arrive
until late in the evening.

CHARLES J GOLDEN.

This untimely death brought a shock
to a wider community and a sorrow to
greater number of friends than is usually
the case from one so young in wears:
nor does it frequently occur that so
much brightness and promise are so
suddenly eclipsed in the cloud of a NOR
tai calamity.
He was born Of an honorable lineage
in Anacostia, D. c., October 10th. 1889.
two months before the death of his
father; and while he was yet child,
the mother followed the father to the
tomb, leaving the infant son an orphan
in the custody of a maternal grand
mother. In early boyhood, Charlie
was adopted and brought up as a son
and brother in the family of Charles NJ.
Miller, then of Swanton, Garrett coun-
tY, MARYLAND. Here those native and
nobler elements so literally worked by
the Creators hand into the clay of his
being ripened into fruition as the
thoughts deepened and the vision
widened.
Before reaching the age of sixteen
years he received the rite of confirma-
ton in the Protestant Episcopal church
at Oakland, Maryland, and died a COM
municant of that church. At the ter
mlnation of two years in college, he
stepped forth upon his own resources.
buOyant of heart and CHEEKY in spirit,
into the open arena of the battle of life.
Bravely in that battle, on a bright
autumn morning, October the 10th,
1912, his 23rd birthday, near Fleming
ton Junction, New Jersey, leaving a
crew which was under his direction as
if to board a running freight he failed
to hear the admonishing call of the
General Superintendent, caught hand
hook of the passing train, and lifted
himself high enough to be struck by
bridge-the end was too quick for him
to experience pain. But, if IN the whirl
and violence of that tragic moment, the
Lord was his shepherd, then he could
lack nothing. In that beautiful city of
the silent, Congressional cemetery at
Washington, banked under a profusion
of flowers of luXuriant growth and the
richest bloom, he was laid to rest.
When some man bearing the burden
of age far down the hillslope of long
journey, in the scar and yellow leaf of
life, full of honors and his mission ended,
bows under the rod and passes from
view, even in grief we see nature full
filling her laws; but when a youth, per-
feet in health and strong in hope in the
morning Of life, swept as the petal of
a rose from the stem in blightlng
blast, from our poor human view it
seems hard and that he has lost much
that should have been his. But:
Leaves have their time to fail.
And flowers 70 wither at the North winds

And stars to set-but all,
Thou hast all reasons for thine own, 0
