the action of George Fred Williams in
boiling the Democratic party to become
Bull Moose and support Col. Roose-
welt means that the influence and pow
er of the Hearst newspapers will be
used to further the third term ambi-
ton of the Bull Moose candidate
Ever since William Randolph Hearst
endeavored to exert a commanding in.
iluence in Democratic national politics.
George Fred Williams has been his lead
ing Massachusetts, confidant and sup.
porter.
Where Hearst led, Williams followed.
Hearst supported Speaker Champ Clark
for the Democratic presidential nom
nation and fought Woodrow Wilson's
claim to that honor with yehemence.
Williams did likewise in this state.
Williams ran as Clark man for dele
gate-at large in this state, but met de-
feat by an overwhelming vote. INDIE
tered by this, however, Williams went
TO Baltimore. and as the leading lieu
tenant OF Hearst worked hard to ae-
complish the nomination of Speaker
Clark.
When William Jennings Bryan helped
bring about the defeat of Clark and the
nomination OF Woodrow Wilson, Hearst
broke with Bryan. bitterly attacking
him at that time and. has continued to
do so ever since in his newspapers and
magazines.
Williams, known as the original Bryan
man in Massachusetts, followed Hearst's
lead and bitterly scored Bryan on the
floor of the convention.
After the nomination of Wilson,
Hearst, deeply chagrined and resentful,
sailed for Europe. Williams. in the
same state Of mind, did likewise and

FOUR IMPORTANT MEASURES.

Here are four important measures
that ought TO have the prompt and IA
vorable consideration of the West Vir.
ginia Legislature about TO assemble
In extra and regular session:
First-A production tax on natural
gas.
Second-A workman's compensation
act
Third-A law limiting the employ
ment OF armed guards by individuals
and corporations
Fourth-A county salaries law
In stating these measures The Intel.
ligencer has not attempted TO state
them in the order OF their relative i'm
portance. To some men one will ap-
pear more important and more press
Ing than another. but all Of them have
direct bearing upon the happiness.
prosperity and welfare OF a large mum
Der OF people OF West Virginia. Prob
ably the tax upon natural gas would
result in more direct benefit to the
people at large than any other posi-
BILE measure. The passage OF the pro-
hibitory amendment and the necessity
OF making some preparation 10 meet
the exigencies that will arise from the
Virginia debt case will require extra
revenue provisions. Every year from
si5.0OO.OO TO $50. O0O. OO0 worth OF nat
ural gas is produced in this state.
Most OF 1t Is pumped out OF the state.
and IL pays little or no revenue 10 the
State. II is a product distinctly com
munistic in its character. The man
who drills a well and secures natural
gas can tell by no possible means
whether the natural gas he obtains
originated on property that belonged
TO him or property that belonged to
some other man or TO the public at
large. II may be any mans property
or no mans property. Al Of the or.
binary laws OF private ownership fail
when applied TO natural gas. and the
privilege Of producing same and carry
ing IL out Of the State Is distinctly "a
privilege that ought to be taxed by
the State and made 20 pay very
large revenue.
In favor Of each Of the measures
outlined above 1t is possible 90 pre-.
sent strong, IL not absolutely c0ucIu-
sive arguments. The county salaries
law. viewed as revenue measure.
will save to the people OF West Vir
ginia from $3.50. 900 20 goo. ono Der
year. The workman's compensation
act and the mine guard law ar, meas
ures Of common justice 10 the work
ing man OF this State. and will make
for the efficiency OF industry aud for
the preservation Of Industrial peace.
All OF these measures viii come Do.
fore the Legislature o. is possibly
too much 10 expect that all of them
Will be enacted into law. but good citi-
zens may vel. exercise their Influence
