doned had the Underwood bills have
been passed, showing that the pro-
teetive tariff not only maintains in
dustries but creates new ones.
Rates of the Underwood tariff bills
were cited by the speaker to show
that were they in vogue they
would practically kill the trade OF
the Clarksburg tin plate mills
as well as other mills in
the country. throwing out OF
employment 5000 workers in this
district alone, or putting them on
half wages. substituting the
statement he read a letter to that
effect from E. T. Weir. president ii
the Phillips Sheet and Tin Plate Com
pany, Mr.. Weir stated that the Under
wood bill would, in particular, de-
stroy growing trade of the com
pany on the Pacific coast and that in
such event the Clarksburg mill
would first suffc7 as This mill is at
present chiefly engaged in supplying
this trade. The speaker offered fig
ures to prove that foreign manufac-
turers could lay down tin plate at
New Orleans and san Francisco, IN

1t could be made in Pittsburg.

the tax laws. DR.. Hatfield reviewed
the benefits that had been derived to
the people from the operation OF
these laws and contrasted them with
conditions that had existed under
Democratic regime. He also effec-
lively answered Mr.. Thompson's
charge that Republicans had been
extravagant. .Asa
Taking up the questions that had
been asked him by the Democratic
machine press, DR.. Hatfield ade-
quately and emphatlcally answeaSi
each one of and further propounded
questions concerning Democratic re-
lations with corporate and special
interests in each case for the Dem
ocratic press to answer and dared
that corrupt and purchased medium
to answer them. One per-
tincnt question was the pur-
chase of two United States
senatorships and the smoth-
ering of a bribery investigation. An
other was the Democratic attempt
to pass the notorious French dis
Reimbursement bills.
One question that caused great
amusement was care you in favor
of returning Clarence W. Watson to-
the United States Senate and if so,
why?"
DR.. Hatfield discussed his plat
form in detail and was followed by
Abe Lilly, who made a severe ar
raignment of the Watson domina-
ton of the Democratic party in the
state. lt e.

ANOTHER LID NAILED
Watson Headquarters False
hood about Money for Sol
diers is Exploded.
FL'UNRIES' EFFORTS
To Hide the Label of Corrup-
tion and Bribery Of Wat
son Candidates Fail.

Republican State Chairman Lakin
issued the following today:
Because the state has borrowed
one hundred thousand dollars with
which to meet the expenses of main
tanning troops in the Paint creek
strike zone, when it has nearly one
million and half dollars in the
treasury, the managers OF the Wat
sdn-C Chiffon MacCorkle bossed head
quarters use that as basis to manu-
facture lot of lies in an effort to
mislead the people by arousing un-
warranted suspicion. 1t is true the
state has borrowed that sum of mon
ey, and 1t is true that the state has
over million dollars in its treasury.
If the state had ten,twenty or fifty
millions of dollars to its credit. yet
1T would be compelled to borrow one
hundred thousand to pay what it owes
its soldiers for their brave service.
1t would either have to do this, or
the governor would have to call the
legislature in special and extraordi-
nary session to make an appropriation
for this purpose The states money
can only be used as the legislature
appropriates it, and in extraordinary
cases like the debt incurred for main
tanning law and order in the Paint
creek region, there is very wise
statute which provides that the state
can borrow the money until the next
regular legislative session is held.
This prevents the necessity of calling
legislature in special session, which
would add to the states expenses
unnecessarily
1.-THE story sent out from the Wat
son headquarters built on this per-
fectly legal, proper and entirely ex-
pedient transaction, is malicious
and premeditated falsehood the pur-
pose of which is to confuse the pub
lie, impose upon the ignorant and the
credulous, and foment d sentiment
that the officials of our state govern
ment are dishonest. The books are
open at Charleston, have always been
and always will be, as long as the Re-
publican party is in power. That
party was the original open the
book" party in West Virginia and
when they first got a chance to I'M
seal them upon the induction of Gov
ernor Atkinson into office the flrst
fish caught in their dragnet was the
last Democratic secretary of state that
the state had. This attack upon the
Republican administration is merely
the latest frenzied effort to keep the
people from looking behind the label
that the Democratic candidates wear,
and to make them forget the unsur-
passed frauds which characterized
the last legislature, when, there was
"a saturnalia OF debachery" accord
ing to the authority of that highly
esteemed Democratic editor and lead
err Albert Sidney Johnson. Retribu-
ton, swift and unrelenting, is on the
trail Of the sangsters. which accounts
for their campaign OF falsehoods and
misI representations. Let the voters OF
West Virginia beware

Reaulus a Roman Hero.

Regulus is counted as one Of the
great heroes Of the old Roman empire.
He was in command of an army that
made an unsuccessful attempt to cap
ture Carthage in Africa. The Car
thaginians killed many of the Romans
and took the rest prisoners. Among
the captives was Regulus, the COM
mander.
Now it happened that the Romans
held several Carthaginians in captivity
as well, SO the leaders in Carthage Of
fered to give Regulus his freedom If
Rome would free their generals. The
Romans were willing. but Regulus, the
one for whom the trade was being
made. counseled otherwise. He adj
vised his people to hold fast to the
Carthaginians and let Carthage do its
worst to him, because the Carthagin-
ian captives Rome held, Regulus said,
were worth more than he was. He
died brave mans death.

foreigners in the city at the present

Mr.. Westcott is bitter against the

as the worst steal ever perpetrated in

Another thing that these heart

that men and women look at the
subject of love making from differ

her element in it, A man feels like
a fool when he is doing it. 1t is
for that reason that men hate long
engagements. They are in hurry

Quit Counting Heart Throbs.

Doubtless all of this is cold COM
fort to the women who pine for
some audible expression of their
husbands affection. The best adj
vice that one can give them is to
use a little common sense in the
matter, to believe that as long as a
man works for a woman he is Civ
ing the best possible proof of his
devotion to her, and that a hus-
band who loves his wife feels no
more need to go about proclaiming
the fact than an honest man does
to cry out in the streets his virtue.
Besides which love is not the
whole of life, and the less women
live in their emotions the happier
they are If women would stop
taking the temperature of their
husbands affections and counting
their own heart throbs the world
would be a cheerier place in which
