Probe to Re Thorough.

What a difference between the
Democratic and Republican ways OF
doing things! Two years ago brib-
cry charges we're rampant in the
senatorial elections. One aspirant
openly declared that II the senator
ships were to be auctioned, he stood
ready to buy, Members of the leg
stature charged bribery and de-
nounced the corrupt methods and
practices used. Investigations we're
clamored for by members of the
Democratic party but these clam
ors fell on deaf ears. The Demo
cratic leaders would do nothing
The senatorial candidates who were
finally elected never. insisted on an
investigation. To the contrary they
relied on their henchmen to see that
there was none, and when the
matter finally reached the United
States Senate, they had a disreput-
able member of the legislature to de-
clare himself self-confessed liar
in order to delude the United States
Senate.
How different the course of the
present legislature, in which there
is a Democratic minority! A COM
mittee of investigation has been APP
pointed and the grand jury is al
work. In addition the governor
elect of the state has issued state
meat .replete with assurance tina;
the investigation will be thorough

Better Babies.

In the March Woman's Home
Companion will appear the first
complete report of great campaign
that is springlng up with astonish-
ing virility-a campaign for 'EBetter
Babies" A year or two ago a wo-
man in Iowa, Mrs. Mary T. Watts,
conceived the idea that in her state
the principal enthusiasm among the
people was for better cattle, better
corn and better hogs. AT the county
and state fairs there were OCCASION
al, .babyAshows,n hut the whole pur-
pose was to pick out and reward
babies for their beauty and attract
iyeness rather than for their health
and development In other words.
the baby was simply sideshow for
entertainment, and !, not taken ser
iously, while in every other exhibit
science ruled. and the object was to
cultivate knowledge of the best ways
to produce better products.
Mrs. Watts saw that Iowa was neg
lecting her most valuable crop
her crop of babies. With the Co
operation of physician, DR.. NJ. v.
CLARK, she organized real baby
contest. The object was to award
prizes to those children who made
the best physical showing. DR..
CLARK prepared scorecards, the prin-
cipal items of which we're adapted
from the cards used in judgiSE
cattle and animals OF various kinds.
These cards formed the basis cf.'a
scientific Inquiry calculated to re-
veal the physical and mental effic-
iency of the child examined.l
The sresiiits of~thAs first contest
imete hppsllag They showed that
tIowa had better corn and cattle than
babies, and awakened public senti-
tfnent to a Vide Study of all. those
matters tfats concern the care oil

SO on. one child who had received
low marking in the first contest

the mother had carried out the sug-
gestions as to the chf1d's diet and
care, which she never would have
heard of had it not been for the
aroused state Of the public mind.
This year thirty-five states have
already arranged to hold scientific
baby shows in connection with live
stock shows and state fairs. Wo-
mems clubs, newspapers and physi-
clans are awake, and one of the
most important world movements
has begun.

Democratic gratitude is evidently
an unknown quantity in West yir-
ginia as evidenced by the treatment
given col John T. McGraw, of Graf
ton. Col. McGraw made personal
sacrifices for his party, when
Clarence w. Watson was giving aid
to the Republican party. Col. Nc
Graw spent many years OF his life
leading what was lost cause all
those years, and when victory did
perch on the democratic banner,
Col. McGraw was relegated, But
that was not enough. HIS humil!a-
tion was not regarded complete and
the Democratic membership of the
present legislature is adding to it.
So far in the contest for the United
States, senatorship, not a single vote
has been cast for the party's one
great leader through its adversities
and defeats. Indeed, the mighty

Colonel Edwards carefully neg
lects to refer to those he bribed as
Progressiyes and yet all but one of
them We're voting for him all the
time. 1t is reasonable to suppose
that if they knew him as a Pro-
gressiye they regarded themselves
Progressives, else they would not
have voted for him. Can it be that
Edwards was brlblng them several
days before the system that he was
responsible for caught them? His
words imply as much and he con-
victs himself as one who gave brides

were ensnared. Colonel Edwards
