expensive, and then pay il back to
them in wages" The doctrine of
the Democratic party has always
been, on the other hand. that "the
aim OF government must first be to
make the masses prosperous, and that
the interests will then prosper as a
natural consequence; that the people
must first be taken care of, and then
the interests will be able to look out
for themselves; that the only right
government is that which robs no
one, but protects ALL
Partner of the Interests.
A partnership of fifty years stand
| ing cannot easily be broken The
Republican party has for fifty years
maintained partnership with the in
| terests, depends upon them for sup
port and maintenance, and cannot
break with them without going to
pieces. 1t is not free TO choose.
Those within its ranks who revolt
inevitably create new party-start
a new party tradition. They fling
out and virtually join the Democrats.
who are free from entangling alli-
ances The sympathies and conf
dences of the Democratic party are
with the masses of the people; its
wish is to choose policies which will
be inthe interest OF all. and is free to
do so.
| The policy of the Republican party
has made the power of the trusts
what it is. The tariff has become.
not means of protection, but a
means of patronage. The tariff leg
islation of recent years has been de-
lsigned. not to effect a general and
healthy economic development and a
fair extension and equalization of the
opportunities of the people. but to Sc
cure profits to particular classes and
combinations of producers.
Having created trusts, the domi-
nant party has tried to regulate
them; but it's regulation has threat
| ened to transfer the actual control
| Of business to the Government itself
and may in the long run only cement
the partnership and corrupt the Gov
eminent; only make it the more ne
| cessary that the interests should
maintain the party and control the

What Democrats Stand For.
The Democratic party believes in
such a revision of the tariff as will
take out of it every feature of pat
ronage and special favor; as will base
It entirely on the need of revenue for
the Government and the wisest adj
justment OF the taxation involved tc
the interests of the people. 1t be
lieves, moreover, not in such "regula
ton" of the trusts as will put bust
ness in the hands of the Government
but in such laws as will punish indi

hind the trusts-for every breech OIL
public policy, for every act hostile tt
the common interests and to fair com
petition and free opportunity fol

Says They Can't
Stand-Pat Paper Explains Why the
Progressives Have Nominated
No County Tickets in West
Virginia.

The BluefieId Telegraph, itepubli-
can paper which has been consistent
" for the stand-pat candidates of
that party, taunts the Progressives
with not being able to place local
tickets in the field or name local
candidates in West Virginia. It says
at was the original intention to
have a full set of candidates in every
county, but like their illustrious lead
er. many of these chosen to be cap
tains of counties had by irregularity
in party matters forfeited influence
and were unable to carry out the pro
gram. Many of the strongest sup
porters of Roosevelt have watched
the facts and noted the past and are
not pleased at the prospect"

amendment of the Sherman anti

however, Joker" in the bill which
permitted the large corporations in
the country to enter into agreements
which would have legalized some of
their illegal operations and have prac-
tically destroyed the sherman anti
trust law. Bills to that end were in
troduced in the House of Represen-
tetives and in the Senate.
| Hearings were held on the House
bill before the House Committee on
the Judiciary and on March %, 1908,
year before Mr. Roosevelt retired
from the White House, Seth Low
OF New York, testified to the exact
authorship of the bill as follows:

III OlltT WOTuS, WQen IHeO0Ore
Roosevelt made up his mind to amend
the Sherman antitrust law in 1908.
he asked Il. III. Gary, chairman of the
; board of directors of the Steel Trust,
and its attorneys, Stetson and Nor
awetz to tell him how. Because of
) their support and because of the pro-
visions they proposed in it Congress
} refused to let the proposed bill get
out of committee.
; Today Mr.. Roosevelt favors the Gary.
; Perkins bill supplementing the Sher-
man antitrust law, which bill, If en-
acted into law, would revise the gov.
eminent to fit the trusts instead of
revising the Trusts to fit the Govern
ment. In other words, the same old
combination is at work to Offset Presi-
dent Taft's insistence upon an i'm
partial enforcement of the Sherman
antitrust law-under which neither
the Steel Trust nor the Harvester
Trust shall receive favors-together
with such supplementary legislation
as may be necessary to enable the
Government to hold its advantage for
, all time, once the courts have decid.
ed against any Trust

the vote was 1892, or nearly four
thousand greater than the total Re-
publican vote in the last general cleo

save Cabell and Kanawha, the vote
in the primary was greater than the

Forty Per Cent of Vote Cast.
The total vote for the entire state
for the Republican candidate for gov
ernor in 1908 was 130,S07. The
total vote in the primary was less
than sixty thousand, or but little
more than forty per cent of the tQta
Republican vote of three and hall
years ago. In 1908, the six counties
mentioned cast but twenty-three pei
cent of the total Republican vote. III
the primary the same counties cas-
nearly sixty per cent OF the tota
vote.
There is a reason. In McDowel
and Mingo, where the vote last weel
was heaviest, the corruption OF the
ballot has been practiced in elections
of the past, and there is every rea
son to believe that similar practice.
