Commission from West Virginia
Shocked But Will Try to Have

WASHINGTON, ID. C., Mar. o
West Virginia's debt commission IS

shock of V;rginia's dlgnfhed but EN-
phatic refusal to consider its propo-

If anything, else can be done before
the supreme court again takes up
the case April 1i3.
The Virginians left last night for
home, after positively decl' ng to con
slider any matters not specified by the
supreme court in its request for the
/ two states to get together amicaoly
and after declaring that the propo-

brace the subjects specified by the
court but entirely different matters.
The West Virginia commission was

is understood will sometime TO-DAY
issue a public statement as to its po-

which the attorneys for West Vir-
ginia do not agree. Part of them are
said to believe the court will reopen
the case; others say it is an even
chance as to whether it will or not;
some believe it will not do so. Those
who hope the court will permit West
Virginia to present it's newly discov-

On the morning Of the day when
the Underwood bill went into effect,
John Wanamahar, proprietor Of two
of the largest department stores in

postmaster general, but good bust

"The president OF the United States

caused his party to redeem its prom

as good citizens the new condition
without criticism and give it a fair

FEAR is THE CAUSE.

Governor Cole Bleasa Of South
Carolina has issued a call for a
special session of the legislature.
He does not state what he will do,
but between the lines one reads that
he intends TO suspend for six months
all the laws for debt collecting in
that state. in other words, the
banker and the merchant cannot
collect a debt the farmer owes
and the out-ofstate people cannot col
left from the lankers and the mer-
chants. The lawyer says such a law
cannot be enacted, fut the legisla-
turc, which has right to pass a
law, ought to have right to sus-
pend the operation of the law. The
suspension of all debt collecting ma
chinery Of a state would bring about
a condition We are not accustomed
to, and the results would be hard to
calculate. A general moratorium has
been discussed in congress, and il
the situation should become very
acute, legislation of that kind may
be rcsOrted to.
It seems, however, that such
emergency legislation is not demand
ed. Everything the farmer has for
sale is selling at fair price eS-
ccpt cotton, and the farmer has
raised cotton for less than he is
receiving for it now If the holding
plans can be matured, cotton VIII

thing to do and emergencies are help.
ful sometime to remind all humanity
that they are all akin and that no
man can be Independent of other
men Fear resulting in a STAN.

A news item announces that
President Wilson has ordered the
withdrawal of the American army
Of occupation at Vera Cruz. The
dove of peace is now lowering over
cur sister republic. The tyrant Huer-
ia has been driven from the land.
Constitutional government is being es-
tablished The wisdom Of President
Wilson has been demonstrated and
his watchful waiting policy has been
y!ndicated. How fortunate are the
people of the United States in having
such a president How fortunate thev
are that they are not governed by
the strenuous Teddy. If the people
Of Oklahoma are pleased with these
conditions; if they prefer peace TO
war; if they prefer prosperity to
anarchy, they should vote for those
who are upholding the policies of
Wilson. They should vote for the
democratic candidate for congress
and they should vote for Judge r. i.
Williams and the entire state demo,

whom President Wilson is depending
upon for support.
