Democratic Opportunity.

Last week tbs Gommoner printed
this sentence. ''fbe dealeerats who,
as a result Of the congressional and
senatorial elections, are entering official
life should learn early that the secret
Of success in public. life is to have no
secrets from the public, =
In control Of both houses of congress
as well as the White House, the deHas
cratic party will have great opportu-
nifty. " lille democrats have gone to
defeat repeatedly they may obtain salts
faction from the investigation of the
record their party has made, In the
first place the democratic party ia the
only political organization that ever
reformed itself. in 1896 the rank and
file of the party rose ia protest against
the policies of the democratic national
administration and put the party in line
with the progressive thought of the
day. 1t is also gratifying to remember
that although The party has not been
in power it has forced the republican
admlnistra ton to adopt some Of its re-
forms and it has provid, d inspiration to
men of all parties who would work for
the pubic good In short, it is the only
political party which, even in defeat,
has been able TO force it's victorious OPP
ponent to adopt some of its leading re-
forms. The income tax and the elect,
ion of senators by the people are demo
cratic measures They are practically
accomplished under republican admins
trations and won through the persistent
championship of those measures by the
party which claims Thomas Jefferson
as its leader.
Now the democratic party is about
to enter upon the aministration of the
national government. The new presi-
dent has the confidence of men of all
parties and he is recognized as the
leader of progressive thought. The
Commoner wishes for the Wilson admin
istration the highest sort of success. F"

Democratic Simplicity.

The new regime at Washing
ton promises to be one of plain
living and high thinking,
While upholding the dignity
of their high Offices, the Presi-
dent, and his Cabinet have al
ready shown their intention to
return to Democratic conditions
and to abstain from apeing the
expensive social customs of mon
archichal governments.
Moreover they are demonstrate
ing capacity for real hard work
and dispatch of business, which
doubtless will be sufficient hint
to their subordinates of what is
expected of them in the public
service.
Already the wheels of the new
government administration are
turning as smoothly as if no
change of party control had 90

ment will be in thu hands Of the party

Woman Suffrage In The
Senate.

A body that will pass joyousty a con,
stitutional amendment providing for
the initiative and referendum with all
their frills, and then turn around and
deny the people chance co vote on
woman's suffrage, passes understaRds
ing. Such is the record of the West
Virginia senate. The Sentinel fails to
find one good reason why the woman's
suffrage amendment should not have
been submitted If the voters are
qualified to pass on the establishment
of state printing plants and the creation
of lieutenant governors and other burn
ing questions of like import. they are
certainly entitled to consider pro-
position affecting directly the legal and
moral rights of half of the adult popu-
lation. While it is true, the present
constitution, by its two,thirds vote pro-
vision, eontemplates that the members
of the legislature shall exercise some
degree of discretion-in the submission
of amendments, the question of
woman's suffrage is one of such long
standing and SO thoroughly familiar to
the electorate; that it il eminently
proper for them to pass upon it regard
less of the personal views of the legis-
lato-s. In arguing against the pro-
position, 5some of the senators are
quoted as saying that while woman's
suffrage might be success in western
states, conditions are different in West
Virginia. We do not know exactly
what they mean by this, whether West
Virginia women have notso much sense
as Western women, or whether West
Virginia men are such superior beings
that they do not need feminine assist
ance in running their government. as
do their western cousins, or whether
West Virginia women are 10 refined and
tenderIy nurtured that vulgar thing
like ballot would not appeal to them
as it does TO the commonar WesterneFg

BIZ WALTER A. CLARK.


The outside world has never had and
never will possess proper conception
of the peculiar relations that existed
between ''marster1 and ''mistess" and
those who called them such in the old
days, The tender kindness that lay in
the hearts of master and slave, mistress
and maid, NANNY and child, and that
threwsits grace and glamour oyer old
time Southern life, is lost chord whose
melody win never ring again in earth
or sea or sky. Looking back to those
old days-to Mary, my oId-time nurse
whose gentle care so blessed my tender
years; Mary beside whose coffined form
stood within the chancel Of the little
church where she had been so long a
worshiper and tried to pay an earnest
tribute to her long and blameless life;
and to all the faithful hearts and hands
that made heaven lie about US in our
infancy"-a tribute comes from my old
time heart:
Die DeuuS DcuOdtIt Ills WOiAhI VI Coz .
With feeble step and slow,
But in her heart there throbs and shines
The light of long ago;
Of days when on her dear old face
There played an angel smile,
AS in her blessed arms she held
And crooned to sleep her chile,
The color of lowly race
Shone with its ebon glow,
And yet the old black mammy's soul
Was white as driven snow
Her toll. worn hands were kind and true
Through all her bonded years
To mistess and her little ones
In gladness and in tears.
And through war IS wearyipg sgony
Her heart was free from guile,
And loyal to the bitter end
To mistess and her chile,
Her ranks ere waning year by year
On Southern hill and plain;
And when the last black MANN VS. gone
She'll never come again,
Yet somewhere on the radiant hills,
Beyond earth's woe and vile,
Her dear old arms will fold again
Cd mistess apd, her chile.
God bless her till her weary feet
Shall touch the shining shore;
God keep her mud the cherubim,
At rest for eyermorel-=From the

Tariff Relief and Extrava-
CANT Appropriations.

You can't eat your cake and
have it.
You can't squander the Gov
eminent revenues and yet reduce
the tariff on the necessities OF
life, which incidentally means to
curtail the Government receipts,
in the process.
It is therefore not an unmixed
evil that the River and Harbor bill
failed to get through" last
week, as it will probably have to
submit to we'll deserved prun-
ing at the hands of the new
Congress.
True, it contained many merl-
torious and necessary items, such
as the deepening of the Ohio and
other waterways, and for in
creasing harbor facilities to care
for our expanding foreign trade.
But it also contains many ap-
preparations to which might be
compared ones for the dredging
of Bullskin Run, or the fortifi-
cation of Rafting Springs. or
like absurdities.-Graft, pure and
simple!
The same objections have APP
piled to the Public Building Bill.
Would the average citizen rather
Gee free S11Uar on his hrea kfaSt
table, and his children wearing
better and cheaper clothes as a
result of tariff revision, or to
have the inefable pleasure Of
gazing at an imposing, but use
less triumph of architecture; a
silent monument to a vicious
system? He can t do both.

Making Good Under Diff
cuIties.

Hon. VIM. G. Brown, accom-
panied by his daughter, left for
Florida on Tuesday, where he
will take a we'll merited fort
nights rest, preparatory to the
hard work of the Extra Session
of Congress which will convene
April 1st.
Meanwhile his Office will be
open as usual, and in charge of
his faithful and most efficient
Secretary, Mr.. Foster Zeigler.
Congressman Brown has had
the sympathy of all who have
known of the troubles which
have so grievously beset him
during the past few months.
The death, of his mother fol-
lowing so closely on the loss of
his wife but few months before,
was stunning blow to him, just
as he was recuperating from a
severe attack of ptomaine poison
ing which threatened to result
fatally.
In attending his mothers fun
eral at King wood, Mr.. Brown
caught severe cold, which
qnickly developed into double
pneumonia from which he is now
conya1escing.
DESPITE his mental and bodily
suffering, Junior" has never
faltered in his duty to his con-
stituents-often being at work
when he should have been in bed
faithful to his trust feseH at the
hazard of his life.
Courage of such a type com.
pels the admiration of friend and
foe alike.

may soon be himself again. auc

The New Freedom.

Messrs. Doubleday, Page Go, New
York City Gentlemen: / have Just
read an advance proof Of President
elect Wilson'S book The New Freedom,
and hasten to commend it. Anything
coming from one just entering upon the
responsible duties Of the presidency
would be worth reading, and the fact
that the incoming executive deals with
great problems of interest to the whole
public, gives additional weight to his
utterances And it is only fair to add
that the value of the volume is still
farther EXCHANGED by the style of the
author-clear-cut, forcible, and abound
ing in apt Illustrations
Those who would calculate with ac-
curacy the course of the ship
of state under the pilot who takes
his place at the wheel on March 4th, can
find in 1.-THE New Freedom chart of
the seas to be traversed during the next
four years. Progressives will welcome
the book as renewed evidence of the
authors conservation to the great task
of popularizing the government and
putting the people in the control of the
instrumentalities of that government.
Those who have, from lack of inform
alton viewed with alarm the changes
that are taking place, will be instruct-
ed, and, to large extent, relieved of
their fears by the definitions given and
the distinctions drawn by Governor
Wilson.
You are rendering real service by
offering this book to the public at this
time, and | feel that am contributing
also, to the extent that this letter may
draw attention to the book and secure
reading of it. Very truly yours,
