IF there exist any arguments outside of
Garford Trucks themselves. that should
convince the business man of the Gar
ford. supremacy for heavy hauling, we
believe they are the headline above and
the facts that follow
II you ever had the desire to elevate
your trucking system to paying basis
If you ever felt the strain of The Horse

Although the Garford has had steady
and consistent growth for a number of
years it is significant that within the last
year. it has taken rank as The Dominant
Motor Truck for heavy service.
The sales of the r & L Company,
Eastern Garford distributors the last six
months were $i,300000 Over one and
a quarter million dollars. mind you. in six
months, in one district. Their sales for
March alone totalled $3z2,742.50. 6oqo
of all these sales were repeat orders from
big firms who had proved the Garford's
efficiency.

No other truck has forged ahead so
rapidly, SO consistently as the Garford.
MerH--dont lose sight Of that word. 1t is
good synonym for "Gdrtord" Big firms
that bought one Garford on trial, in the
hope that it might live up to its looks and
prove better investment than previous
experiences with other trucks soon came
back for more Garfords- placed additional
orders. What better testimonial could any
body aska
The judgment Of big business is $3.50

claim, that the faculty for judging relative
values accurately. is one reason why big
business is big businessl

Democratic Simplicity.

1t may be shock to some. and to
more 1t may be a disar pointment. but
there seems to be every reason to be-
lieve that President Wilson will usher
in an administration marked by Jeffer-
sonian simplicity. Without in the least
ref, citing on the administrations that
have preceded it, some persons are
frank enough to say that with high
thinking and simple living in the White
House, with fewer funkies and less
gold lace in evidence, there will be a
closer adherence to the spirit of the
Constitution and more wholesome ex-
ample to a nation which seems to have
become lit rally drunken on prosperity
The spirit of republican institutions
should not suffer under this new regime.
The prosperity of the country should not
even halt, but possibly the expectations
Of the democratic leaders thatthat pros
perity shall be more evenly and cquita
bly, distributed will be realized. The
great commercial interests of the land
do not seem to be greatly worried over
what Congress will do. The leaders in
the House and the Senate have shown
ability and self-restraint, 1t is I'M
doubtediy best for the country to give
its hearty support to the new admins
tration and SO enable it to begin its
work under favorable auspices.

Trying To Pack The Bench.

II anything were lacking to put the
stamp of ultimate discredit upon Presi-
dent Taft's administration, It is his ef
fort at the close of his term to pack the
Federal judiciary with representatives
Cor life) of the policies for which he
and his Administration have just been
emrhatically condemned by the people
of the country. it's an attempt on
his part to perpetuate on the bench the
undemocratic policies that have been
thrust out of Congress and elected from
the White House. Plutocracy does mt
quit when it is licked" said Tom L.
johnson after he had been Mayor of
Cleveland year The accuracy of
that observation dozen years ago in
one American city is being demonstrat
ed through President Taft today in the
nation at 'arge. TO add to the efront-
cry Of this performance, the refusal of
the Senate to confirm Mr.. Taft's
eleycnth-hour bench-packing appointees
is denounced by his sprrounders who
know exactly what they want, as
done to save patronage for the incom-
ing Administration We hope the mo-
tives are higher: there is reason enough
for higher motives Be that as it may,
however, why is saving patronage for
an incoming Administration any worse
than Selling patronage by an outgoing

The Legislature.

Owing to the recent graft revelations,
the emergency arising from the state
of civil war prevailing in the Kahswha
coal fields and the congestion of bills
on the calendars and before committees,
little progress has been made by the
Legislature during the past week. The
bills putting the Prohibition Amend
ment into effect will probably pass.
The Primary Bill viii most likely fail
or be SO emssculated as to be worse
than useless. Apparently the State
will not be fedistricted. Next week
we hope to be able to.report the enact
ment Of some constructive progl essive
legislation. but we are net sanguine
The situation is chaotic.

About Patronage.

Talking apout cffice-seekers. the de-

Of Congress are tasting fully the joys,
such as they are, of the yieters with
good jobs to give away. It has its fun
ny side, but the pathetic side will also
be in evidence. And long before the
places are all filled, weary members Of
Congress will be signing for primaries
to decide who in Fairview and Lonely,

uty forest ranger; or else they will be
advocating the extension of the CLASH

The naked fact remains how
ever that, justly or not,
West Virginia has become a
synonym for political depravity
and her Capitol is advertised to
the world as cesspool of legis-
lative debauchery.
The remedy lies in the election
of United States Senators and all
other public servants by direct
vote of the people.
If the State Wide Primary Bill
is not butchered by the machine
leaders it will go far to redeem
the State from her disgrace.
With anarchy prevailing in her
coal fields and her Legislature
under the ban of bribery, West
Virginians may we'll hang their
heads in shame and pray for the
dawning of a better day.

Bnt eight working days of the
present session of the Legislature
remains
This means that large num-
Der of meritorious measures will
inevitably die on the calendar.
The reason for this congestion
is of course the delay in organ
iziug the State Senate; but no
blame can rightfully be placed
On the Democratic members for
the existing situation.
If the Republicans had done
at first what they eventually did
-concede the Presidency of the
Senate to a Democrat-the 1egis-
lative machinery would have
ground out many good bills
which will now meyer see the
light of day.
Then too the gray wolves
can be counted on, as usual, to
strang1e any bills that are often
Sive to their bosses.
1t may not be an unmixed evil
however.
There is entirefytoo much I'M
necessary legislation and too lit
tile consideration of the few vi
tally important measures that
the people demand and actually
need.

He Kept The Faith.

We regret to note the suspen-
sion from publication-tempor-
arlly we trust-of the Tygart,s
Valley News.
In making the announcement,
Editor George S. Leake says,
We feel now that those who
claimed to be in sympathy with
us. did not and have not given
us the support and sympathy
needed and deserved"
A common experience, Brother
Leake! Had you been on the
side of the corrupt interests you
fought SO uncompromlsing1y last
Fall, or been willing by discreet
but craven silence to tacitly
acquiesce in their deviltreis,
there would haye been no lack
of patronage and support.
But the uneo guida times
have sensitive pocket nerve,
and don't allow their professions
to conflict with their business
interests.
About all one gets out of es-
pousing the right is the approval
of ones own conscience. In
Newspaper work, Virtue usually
is its own reward.
If you want to stand IN, :"
either wear the collar, or pur-
sue a policy of servile silence.
Both plans work well from a
financial standpoint.

There is little probability of the pas,
sage by the present Congress of the
War claims bill The house passed a
bill appropriating about $3.50, 600 for
West Virginia claimants. The Senate
struck out nearly all the items in the
bill. The House refused to accept the
amendment and aconference was asked
in regard to the bill. Congressman
James Mann, leader of the Republi
cans, IN the House, objected to the
conference and there is little likelihood
that there will be conference. I'm
less there is one there will be no posi-
bility of the bill passing. Senator Wat
son had the data prepared to back up
his several amendments by which he
intended TO reinstate in the bill nearly
all of the House provisions which were
stricken out by the Senate. fThis would
