PRIMARIES ron rosroFFIoEs

The discussion going on among some
of the state papers regarding federal
primaries for pestmasters Is somewhat
Interesting and very amusing TO a dis
interested observer.
Nothing was heard of a federal pri-
mary in this state until Wilson was
nominated Then number of she pa
oers and politicians which had fought
him suddenly tumbled TO the fact that
a primary for postmasters would be
3ust the thing. Coupled with Wilson's
nomination by the democrats of the
country was the nomination by an
Overwhelming majority Of claude
T!EngIe by the democrats of the state.
1t naturally occurred to Claude's op-
ponents that under the well recognized
system of appointing postmasters on
the recommendation of congressman,
that a progressive like Claude would
have considerable influence with the
administration, and federal primaries
might keep some of LEng1e's friends,
and wilson's friends, for they worked
together during the campaign, out of
office
The scheme is too unfair and foolish
TO receive the support of even all the
anti Wilson and anti-L Engle papers
and some denounced it for the fraud II
Is.
Its the Stars opinion that if com
Snunities were made up entirely of in
teuigent and non-partisan people, that
federal primary would be just the
thing. AS we are now constituted
there would be nothing but partisan
politics, and. in many places race
politics, in it. Republican communl-
ties, of course, would nominate republi-
Ia mi fns
democrats In many southern com
rnanities, negroes would nominate ne
aroes, for the darkey who asks at the
general delivery window for his mai
twice a day, and receives letter twice
a year would have as much weight il
a federal primary as the leading either
who has to rent a drawer. In all com
anunities where there vas large for
eign population of uneducated work
dngmen, the evil would be as great, o
greater, for the average Hun or Italian
recently arrived from Europe, can
vote with the intelligence of the south
ern darkey, who whatever his othe
faiIings lacks no devot on to his coun
try.
The system of appointing postmas
tiers on the recommendation of con
uressmen is the most fair and con
yenient vet devised. The average con
gresham is well enough acquainte
with the citizens of his district t
make fairly good recommendations A
for the president, he simply hash
time to attend to such comparative
small matters.
As for the primary-take Ocala Il
Instance. About half a dozen demo
Gratis want the office. There would
no way of keeping republicans fro
voting; they might center their vot'
ION a republican, and coiored repuI
lican at that, and nominate him
course, the nomination would be disr
garded; so why go into anything tn
cant be consistently carried out?
The present system of making fe
era1 appointments will probably la
until they are taken out of politics a
together and made by merit. Wh'
that time comes, they will be like al
other business promotion-go TO t
men Of longest service and greatest e
5iciency-and the public will be bett
served

And Democrats Familiar with
the Situation Admit
That Fact.


MI. CLARE, Sept. 1s,-That the
mere poss.biity Of the election Of
Woodrow Wilson 20 the presidency,
and the carrying en-: OF the Demo-
cratic promises 70 destroy the Pro
tectfve tarin has already had de-
pressing affect on the coal industry
is the belief now generally shared BY
operators throughout the Fairmont
region and the fact that this belief
Is held By Democrats vel as Re-
pubHcans makes It all The more sig
nifcent.
Views on the subject Of tariff re-
duetIon and its chests on the coal
Industry were recently given cut
here by Francis E. Lucas Of Phil
adeIphia. who is Interested N a local
mine and what he says deserves more
than passing consideration.
Although a Democrat, Mr.. Lucas
used no hesiancy in saying that any
change in the tarfn would prove a
menace to the business in which he
and many Others were engaged, and
he made plain his belief that such
! ACTON Is CONeEAOE WifSOu purposes
would prove to be nothing short OF
a calamity.
The tariff question should not be
a poIst.cd! one, said Mr.. Lucas
sThay the present tariR schedules are
responsible for the marvellous pros
perity OF the last ten years none
can doubt, and TO turn prosperity
INTO adversely and long business
stagnatfon. just for the sake OF a
change, VIII, in my Judgment prove
be an experiment long TO be re-
GREETED by all classes OF citizens, and
especially the wage workers on whom
the greatest burden viii fall
Mr. Lucas compared the Demo-
cratic attitude to business to that of
the prohibitionists toward the liquor
Interests. Tine only difference, he
said. was that the prohibitonists
intend to destroy the liquor business
and say so. while the low tariff adj
vocates purpose to destroy all bust
ness. burt deny that to be their real
motive.
Mr.. Lucas stated that their was a
decided change OF sentiment in Penn

ATLANTIC CITY, s.. J., Sept IL
politics and mining troubles have
so absorbed public attention in West

to realize that a neighborIy emer-
gency has arisen within the last two

time in the state. FOLLOWING a

ture last word of reminder to the

situation which has been overshad-
owed by other events. The COM
plete wfpfng out OF tn business ma
chinery of the town ana the absO-
lutte need of cooperation so that the
town may take care OF itself during
the winter which will soon arrive
have not been revealed to the state
bupne bodies and public omciais.
There may be a misapprehen-I
sion in one direction. The American
Red cross sent modest $500 for
emergency relief. but the Red Cross
can not furnish the funds needed to
put the people on their feet. The
Red cross can only distribute wisely
what West virginia gives it to use
wheeling and Cleveland Associated
Charities have loaned two trained
workers when they were not needed
I at home, but those workers can do
nothing further unless West Vfr-
GINA gives &hem, something to work
with. The two have made the very
necessary preparations to spend with
special wisdom whatever is to be
spent, but so far they have practical
ly nothing to spend beyond keeping
the folks from hunger and naked
ness for the time being. By the
time this interview is read in West
Virginia the two workers in Collier
must be Tremendously embarrassed
by not being aEee to do the things
which they believe should be done
by the good neighbors of the stricken
town. But it is not the spirit that
is lacking. it is the lack of under
lstanding of the needs"

STAY TO THE
LAST DITCH
HE THIS MORNING DENIED THAT
ANY ONE HAD BEEN GIVEN AU-
THORITY TO WITHDRAW HIS
NAME FROM THE CONVENTION.

Washington, June 2O.-It was flat
ly announced today by President Taft
that he had not authorized any one
to withdraw his name as a candidate
FOR denomination at any time, should
Roosevelt be eliminated.
At the same time the White House
informed the United Press that the
president has been assured that SEN
ator Crane or any one else has not
made such a statement.
When the rumor that Crane had
been authorized to withdraw Taft
from the race came to the White
House, 1t was rushed to the presi-
dents desk. President Taft instantly
dropped all business to get Senator
Crane on the long distance telephone
After the telephone conversation II
was given out that Crane had person
ally assured Taft that he had made
no such statement.
For the, first time since the con-
vention Mr. Taft today denied him
self to newspaper reporters.

WANT man
ON TICKET
WITH TAFT
VICE.PRESDENTIAL TIMBER is
PLENTIFUL AND SOME WOULD
LIKE SECOND PLACE ON ANY
OLD TICKET WITH ANY OLD
CANDIDATE.
UNITED rnnss InAsnn wInE.l


Chicago, June 20.-There are only
thre bona fide vice-presidential booms
on in Chicago today, based on the
assumption that President Taft is to
be renominated by the convention.
They are those of James Sherman,
of Utica, N. Y, the incumbent, who
has the backing of the New York del
egation, headed by William Barnes,
Jr, John wanamaker, the Philadel-
phia merchant, who rushed from Eu-
rope to get here to second the nom
lnation of Taft, and Governor Mead,
OF Vermont.
The latter candidate declares he is
willing to run on any ticket, no mat
ter who is selected as its head. He
insists that he is a progressive enough
for the progressives, and also that
he is old enough in the political game
to come in the support of the Eastern
conservatives.
The Taft men would also start
booms for Senator Cummlns, of Iowa;
Borah, of Idaho, or Hadley, of Mis-
souri,, but up to the present the states
men insist there can and will be moth
ing doing.
Cummins men say It is the top Of
the ladder for him or nothing.
Hadley will not discuss the vice
presidency, and Borah has on several
occasions asserted that, under no
conditions, would he accept nomin-
alton for the vice-presidency. In the
field of available vice-presidential
candidates with Roosevelt, Governor
Johnson leads today, because of his
fight for the colonel, his western To-
cation and strong progressive follow
ing.
Governor McGovern has strong
backing for a place with Roosevelt,
but, 1t Is said, could not receive SOLD
support from Wisconsin.
other vice-presldential candidates
receiving mention with Roosevelt,
were Governor Glasscock, of West
Virginia: former Senator Beveridge,
of Indiana; Judge Lindsey, of Colo
rado; Governor Charles Osborn, Of
Michigan; Senator Miles Poindexter,
of Washington; Governor Deneen, of
Illinois, and Governor Aldrich, of Ne
braska.

was very much grieved because Port

the way we trimmed his pet, "rhe We

first time this season that they had

Meier & Frank we're coming down

strongest lineup possible, as the home
fans wanted OF see us get trimmed,
