and deliver speech Informing a
waiting world OF the blessings that
were sure TO follow the momentous
|act. There was no coinage of
phrases, such as Constitution Of
Feaces or the Common Connect of
the people.
\ am Inclined to IKE the smash
ing Of old precedents by Lincol.I
more than those by sir. Wilson. Pres.
ident Wilson and his party have
smashed the Republican precedent OF
prosperity.
"a year ago. before ne had taken
mp the full responsibilities Of the
presidency, Mr.: Wilson was gagea
jim building a gallows6 higher than
Haman's for; the trusts, but in the
latest message from the White House
we find that the Egallows have been,
Transformed into asmaypole and the,
trusts are invited TO. join the presi-,
dent in a May day dance to celebrate,
the new constitution Of peace. The
new diplomacy that was to convert
our battleships into international So
cial centers has brought only refusal
from the great nations Of Europe to
participate in the Panama Expos,.
ton. the nations Of the East are irri-.
tated, South America suspicious, and
Mexico in anarchy. ii
THE great menace oftoday is not
the trnsts-howeyer. desirable IT may
be to have wise legislation to regus
late them-so much as non employ
n,ent. We must have domestic de-.
preston and foreign Irritation, and
there must be some cause. To my
mind it is the reversal of old and
tried policies. Experiments with the
Democratic policy:have not been. sue:
cessful. They have been repeatedly
tried, but only to%react on our aus
llnestic tranquility,'x .i. ;se:.;ss. 4
Mr. Cannon referred to .factional
differences in the Republican party
and. suggested that there were no diff
Iferences between Republicans and
Progressives on the subject Of pro-
lection. Y Z; y
You remember! Moses said that
the Lord had led Israel out Of the
desert and made him to ride on the
high places of 5'the earth. that he
might eat Of theincrease of the nelas,
suck honey from the rocks and oil
from the flinty rocks; had given him
butter Of kline and milk of goats, and
fat ofslambs, and TO drinkSthe pure
blood Of the grape. But Jeshurun
waxed fat and kicked; he grew thicls
with fat, ana then rorsook God WHO
made him and lightly esteemed tho
rock Of his salvation. The children
Of Israel took UP strange new gods
whom their fathers feared not, and.
God hid his face from them. y
Without irreverence, I think
Moses gave the followers OF Lincoln;

This is what pretty and prom

This age oflabor-saying devices
has witnessed great advances,

Wise women nowadays plan
their work with the skillfof eff

free use of the many modern in

One Of the greatest modern la

West yirginian.
1t is the short cut to accurate

Alcohol has been terribly lied
about Its enemies charge to it's
use most OF the crime and poverty,
the disease and death OF the world.
In fact. its share in these Is small.
Very little of the real crime OF the
world Is due 10 drink. Every one
can call 10 mind notorious cases OF
murder Almost none OF these have
been caused by drink. Probably
sex feelings and sex relations have
been responsible for more murders
than any other one cause.
Next. murder comes from hatred
and from love OF gain. These have
no relation TO drink. True. here
and there. one who commits muir.
der may brace himself with whisky
OF with coffee. but these are In no
way responsible for the act.
Neither has liquor any substan-
tial connection with poverty. The
main cause Of poverty Is monopoly.
not the saloon Responsibility for
poverty rests on the Standard Oil.
United States Steel. Coal Trust. the
people who have taken the earth,
issued stocks and bonds upon the
earth and shut out the opportuni.
