Suggesting that the Chesapeake and
Ohio Railroad Company turn over TO the
Public Service Commission OF West Viz
ginia the entire amount collected in ex-
cess of the two cent passenger fare law
for several years, the money TO be dis
bursed by the State commission as
means OF ending litigation arising over
the law, Governor Hatfield has issued
statement criticSing the long-drawn- out
DELAYS to adjust matters in the courts.
Since June, 1909, the railroad, which had
been granted an Injunction, collected
three cents instead OF two cents a mile,
but issued coupons for the additional
cent. The validity OF the two cent law
was recently upheld by the Supreme
Court of the United States and holders OF
coupons demanded reimbursement. The
railroad, however, has asked for an in
junction against suits by coupon holders,
desiring that they be made prove their
title. Governor Hatfield takes the view
that the railroad is not entitled to any
part of the excess charges. He favorS
making the Public Service Commission
receiver for the fund and allow that body
to redeem coupons presented. In case
there is balance because OF destroyed
coupons he would leave it 10 the LegiS-
lature to dispose OF the amount,
WE heartily commend this suggestion
of Governor Hatfield. The Chesapeake
& Ohio Railroad Company evaded the
law for four years, and now dishonesty
seeks TO evade its obligations. 1t ought
to be brought to book

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases put

local treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh TO be con-
stitutional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarh

THE Senate tariff bill reported from the
finance committee last week is believed
to be more satisfactory measure. even,
than the Underwood bill passed by the
House. II proposes an average reduc-
ton of 27.6 per cent under the Payne
Aldrich tariff law, and is APP under the
rates of the Underwood bill. In opening
the debate for the Democrats on the tariff
bill Senator Simmons, Of the finance
committee, enumerated the farm products
the measure would place on the free list,
such as wheat, flour, cattle, sheep, swine,
sugar, wool, eggs and potatoes and said ::
every man, whatever his occupation,
will be the beneficiary in some direction
to greater or less degree OF this general
system of reductions. In this respect the
farmer has been shown special consider
alton. Practically everything he buys
has been put on the free list or the duties
have been greatly reduced. For his
special benefit cotton bagging and ties,
and the materials out of which sacks for
grain, wool, fertilizer, etc., are made,
WIG lOl lcH(lilS dHu udlluS pun pOSSS, anu
similar articles of farm consumption have
been put upon the free list. For his
special benefit plows, shovels, hoes,
rakes. mowers, reapers, planters and
agricultural implements of every kind
and description have been put upon the
free list. He will be in large degree
the beneficiary OF free listing building
materials Of various kinds, materials used
in the construction of roads, text books
for schools, etc.. boots and shoes, low
grade blankets, harness, saddles and sad
dlery, wagons, carts, sewing machines
and other like products. He will share
general benefits from the reduction of
duty on sugar and its ultimate abolition,
and finally he will share benefits OF the
heavy reductions this bill makes on wear
ing apparel of every description, crock
cry, hardware, household and kitchen
furnishings and utensils"
Senator Simmons showed the predom-
inant idea of the Democratic tariff bill
when he declared that il was bill in the
interest of the consumer as well as the
manufacturer.

THAT eminent Standpatter, Senator
Cummins, in denouncing the Democratic
tariff bill, declared himself opposed to the
principle OF tariff for revenue, and said
he would never vote for measure that
imposed duties on articles Of general use
simply to put money into the treasury OF
the United States.
We submit that this is better than the
the Republican policy OF tariff exaction,
the object of which is to put money into
the treasury of greedy manufacturers.
This is what Senator Cummins has been
standing for, 10, these many years.
