Republicans Swoop on ClafIin Failur,

hcpuDllCdHS oNVOp OH NlhAlu EdlluIts
 Washington, June 25-The failure
 of the great importing firm of Claflin
 was a staggering blow to Democratic leaders of the administration in con- gross. It was hailed by the opposi. tion as an answer to President Will sons statement that the present busi-
 ness depression was only "psychologi- cal,' not actual and that the Dem ocratic legislation enacted and to be
 enacted would prove beneficial to legitimate business.
 The Missouri delegation of the house sent the president a signed pledge to stick in session all summer if neces-
 sary to pass the legislation he asks. This pledge was signed by Speaker Clark, it having been presented him by committee of Missouri members, Fucker, Alexander and Russell. The president officially commended the Missourians for their ungrudging sup port of his program.
 Politicians of the house saw ill the
 move of the Missourians who led in this move desire to place the speaker and Underwood, the Democratic lead
 CT, at odds, the latter insisting strong ly that congres should adjourn with out other legislature tending to agitate
 business men. Neither the speaker
 nor Mr. Underwood will talk about
 business conditions or what should be
 done by congress in connection with
 such conditions.

 to Pass Trust Laws.

Washington, June 25.-President Wilson in an address to the Virginia Editorial association today declared that he would not turn aside from his antitrust program and that the trust legislation must and would be passed at this session of congress.
 The president expressed the belief that business revival is near and holds that with the passage of the trust bills an immediate business boom will follow. He declared that ques- tion mark has been troubling business for the last ten years, and that the uncertainty should be ended.
 Following the administration ef- forts to demonstrate that business conditions are sound. statement was issued from Secretary McAdoo's office today, declaring that the country is generally prosperous.
 Business is 'spotty' in some places" says the statement, particularly ill those industries and supply houses which depend largely on railroad or ders, but there are signs of decided improvement even in this field"
 No comment was made at depart ment on the failure of the H. B. Clafin company of New York, which carried down with it more than a score of department stores in various sections of the country.
 Comptroller Williams, however, stated that while a number of banks held the paper of the Clafli,l concern, none of them would be seriously af- fected by the failure.

a Good step.


The Telegram regards with great
favor and hopefulness the fact that
the committee on printing of the ma
tional Senate has recommended
bill, that would make a good begin
ming toward the abolition of mo-
torious and disgraceful series OF
abuses. The proposed measure
would limit the use of the ranking
privilege to congressman and those
properly entitled to it and stop the
practice that has grown up under
which millions Of ranked envelopes
have been furnished to outside COM
mittees, organizations and associa-
tions interested in pushing some
propaganda or campaign that IS none
of the governments business.
In the same way the COMPRESSION

thing in the Record as Well as stop
the abuse of the ranking privilege.
1t would go even further and limit
pubIication in the Record to to

floor or articles or addresses actu-
ally read in the House or Senate.

aaHe has an understanding Of

the situation that many people hold
to the idea that TRUTH IS the maj

LOCAL COAL
Is to Be Used by the Ann Arbor
Railroad as Result of Mr..
Amos's Visit There.

c. F. Amos, of Toledo, o., fuel in
spector for the Ann Arbor Railroad
Company, is visiting the coal fields in
this section with view of inspecting
coal for railway use, and he states
that he finds local coal superior in
several respects to Ohio, No. 8, coal,
used by his railroad He win recon-
mend that the railway company use
West Virginia coal hereafter. Mr.
Amos states that the twenty-five cent
additional tonnage charge for trans
portation from this section to the west
should be removed as that would be
beneficial to not only the West Vir-
ginia coal operators but also to the
Great Northern railroad. The matter
has been taken up with the proper
organization and he believes it will
be only short while until this differ
entail Is removed.

Good ADVICE.

The subjoined advice from the ed
itorial columns OF the Parkerspurg
Sentinel should be of interest TO
CIarksburgers who are watching Ioca!
bulletin boards and reading local
uswspapers for the latest develop
ments of the Mexican war situation
It should be borne In mind that the
Daily Telegram is a member OF the
Associated Press and that 1t is furn-
ishing war news in it's various edi-
lions and on bulletin boards from
that enterprfsing newsgathertng asso-
citation. Says the Sentinel:
Here is some advice to go by In
reading war news. If the dispatch
or bulletin is from the Associated
Press and gives the information as
fact, you can depend upon its being
q fact. If the information ts based
on rumor or report the Associated
Press will so state, or If 1t is based on
somebody's or some newspapers say
so the Associated Press will state
what person or what paper says SO.
The Associated Press is the only
news organization on which such q
degree of reliability can be placed.
Bulletins and rumors that do not
bear the Associated Press label
should be regarded doubtfully.

members would have the patience to
read long extracts on the floor to
get them published, and those who
did attempt it would expose them
selves publicly as wasting the time
of Congress and invite objection
and protest.
This is a step in the right direc-
ton and the Telegram believes it is
seconded by many in urging that
the bill be passed 1t does not go
far enough, it Is true, but, as an
exchange points out, 1t IS hard to
root up these ingrown. abuses and It
is probably better to gain an enter
ing wedge than to delay action any
longer by proposing a change too
sweeping.

the Republicans made immense

have had to pass judgment on the
free-trade tariff of 1913. In a
little more than four months they
have found ample reason to re-

turn to the support of protection.

ism is to be inferred from the re-
suit of the special election of
February II in the Second Dis
trict of Iowa to fill the vccancy
caused by the death of Congress-
man Pepper. The district was
conceded to be strongly Demo-
cratic; so strongly Democratic
that in the election of 1912 the
Republicans did not put up can

whose election was practically

elected by a plurality of nearly

for Congress this year received
more than 5000 votes less than
