1t is reported that certain candi'
dates for senator are spending much
money in maintaining a force OF
workers, or lobbyists or hcelers at
the capital; paying the bills at prom,
inent hotels and probably other ex'
penses as well. OF course the publta
can easily figure out that the candi'
dates who are doing this arc the ones
who can afford 10 spend large sums
of money in this way. DO the people
of the state, and especially the Re-
publicans, desire the election of a
senator whose character, ability and
merit do not command the respect
ana support Of the Legislature, but who
must depend upon the power of q
paid lobby TO win their battle? The
people are closely Watching the pro-
ceedings at Charleston and the mem
bers OF the legislature may as well
understand that fact. The conferences
held in the private rooms OF the Ruff.
ner and the Kanawha are not SO pri'
vate as might be imagined. The
secrets discussed there will come out
in the work of the legislature and the
people will understand. The general
public is not SO verdant as it used
10 be and the press is not so timid
as it was some time ago. Wheeling

$500 more, making $3.50 as the cash re-
