Hatfield and Hooper
Are Very Much Alike
Roosevelt Denounces Tennesseean for
Doing What West Virginia Re-
pubIicans Have Done.

Governor Hooper. OF Tennessee, is
situated identically the same as are
DR.. H. D. Hatfield and the other nom
inees on the Republican state ticket
in West Virginia. He Is running for
office on a Taft ticket and standing
on a reactionary platform, exactly as
the Republican nominees in West
Virginia are standing lie has pro-
claimed his allegiance to Taft, as the
West Virginia Republican candidates
have done, and like them is asking
for the support Of the Progressives.
Theodore Roosevelt has expressed
himself as to Governor Hooper IN
language that applies as well to Dr
Hatfield and his associates on the
Republican ticket in West Virginia
and this is what he said:
Il speak against Mr.. Hooper be
cause he has condoned theft OF the
nomination. Are you going to vote
for a man who winks at as miserable
theft as that OF the base pickpocket
who steals your purse? Governor
Hooper is condoning that theft

we walked in, and when we got IL
there / suppose there were seventy
five or hundred people, colored and

of the Republican nominees for mem
bar of the legislature from Nc
Doweli county and was on the ticket
for which DR.. Hatfield was working
on the day of the primary election
when Hatfield was nominated for
Governor and Harmon was nomin-
ated for the House of Delegates.
AS to DIR. Hatfield's part in the
elections of two years ago in Nc
Dowell county, the same committee
of the House of Representatives re-
ported TO Congress in the same case
as follows:
THE testimony shows that the
president of the county court, one DR..
H. D. Hatfield, who is also president
OF the Senate of West Virginia, re-
fused to appoint challengers for the
Democratic party at the various vot-
ing precincts of Mcdowell county, al
thought the law of West Virginia
seems clear that the county chair
men of the two leading political par
ties shall dominates and the county
court shall appoint challengers of
election The testimony shows that
lUlS Sdllle III. I1dll4clu W do vel y
active in the actual conduct of the
election in Mcdowell county, and
the refusal to appoint Democratic
challengers raises strong presump-
ton that the conduct of the election
was to be neither fair nor honest.
1.-The circumstances are all strong
as showing a deliberate intention to
commit fraud in the interest OF the
contestee.'
list OF RECORDS
GIVEN FOR VERlFlCATION.
If there be any who doubt the as
sertions made in this article, it may
be said that every statement con
tanned in it is true and was verified
by the writer in a personal visit to
Mcdowell county and by direct state
ments of competent witnesses. The
granting of license to. Harper in the
name of J. D. Harper can be verified
by reference to Minute Book No. 8
of the Mcdowell county court, at diff
ferent pages covering the license
terms of court for several years. The
ownership of the property on which
| the saloon is conducted can be verl
| fled in the land books for the pres
ent year in the office of the county
clerk at WEIGH.

dietment, trial, conviction in botf

rested him, and the man and woman
on the inside, and after we were in
there a few minutes, Arthur
Cheatham asked me what | was go.
ing to do with him. and | told him
was going to put him in Jail. He
said that he wanted to send for the
old man, and | asked him who he
had reference to, and said what do
you want with him, and he said 4
want him to take charge here to-
night and | told him that | would
take charge myself, but in few min
utes, some, | have forgotten which
one OF the boys told me that Cal
houn wanted TO get into the wine
room, and | told Inn to open the door
and let him in, and he came in and
| asked him what business he had
there, and he said what business
have you here disturbing my place
of business? And ] said what, do
you own this place of business, and
waved my hand about so, over the
room. He said I have an interest
in this business, ! get rake-off, and
] own this building, for ! made the
last payment on it today. ] asked
him some other questions, and it
seems he thought | was questioning
him too closely, and he said he would
not talk any more then, facts will
come out later. A few minutes after
we went out nto the hall, and he said
he wanted to talk to me, | believe,
| went out on the porch, and he says,
i | am a friend to you and your brother
this thing is going to ruin me-
would like to fix this up in some way
is there anything | can do. ! said,
| cannot see any way it can be fixed
up; said I am doing my duty as
an officer. He said | help to elect
the officers of this county. ! said,
Calhoun if you have anything to say
say it now, as | am in hurry, and
he did not say anything and ! turned
and left him."
/ Further testimony as to the char
acter of the place run by Calhoun al
the time of his arrest is given by
Budd Aliff on pages AZ and AZ of the
printed record (page AZ of the type
written record) On these pages
while being cross examined, Mr.. Alifi
was questioned and replied as fol
lows:
/ 20. / Were you member Of that
club?
/ "a No, sir.
20. 2 What were you doing III
there?
"A. To get some liquor
20. 8 Each time to get liquor?
"a. Yes. sir.

that, Mr. Aliff?
"A. 1t seemed to be place where
they sold whiskey and beer.

A Striking Comparison
Effect of the Tariff on the High Cost
of Living Shown at Cities Along
the international Line.

The difference in the cost OF lying
in Detroit and just across the river
in Windsor, Canada. supplies us with
a striking definition of the real mean
ing of excessive tariff rates. Prices
of foodstuffs, wearing apparel ana
rents average from twenty to twenty
five per cent more in Detroit than in
Windsor. And between the two cities
there are but 1851 feet of water
and the Aldrich-Payne tariff bill.
The Detroit man ia protected, the
Windsor man pays fifteen dollars for
a suit OF clothes that the Detroit man
will find it difficult to duplicate IN
quality for twenty-five dollars. What
the Windsor man is escaping in this
instance is the Aldrich-Payne tax OF
forty-fosr cents a pound on good all
wool clothes, and the additional tax
of sixty per cent on the value OF the
goods. Huntington Advertiser.
