Faster Cantata.

The choir of the Central Presby-
terrain church will render at the
morning service tomorrow very
beautiful Easter cantata, Death
and Life" by Shelley. While short,
lasting but scant twenty-five mia
utes, it is one of the most beauti-
full works ever written on the theme
OF the resurrection. The solo parts
are especially beautiful and effect
i've. The work opens with the scene
at the cross, the rabble reviling the
Saviour. Then when darkness COW
ers the earth and graves are opened.

FIGHT ON FREE TOLLS.

The New York World put the free

the whole matter. The Intelligencer
congratulates President Wilson on
the stand he has taken and only
hopes he will stand still long enough
TO make his opposition TO the offend

The contest for elimination of the
exemption of coastwise trade vessels
from toll has started in the Senate.
Senator Bristow. OF Kansas. sought
the opportunity TO hold up the Presi.

and in this he was right. but he was
all wrong in defending the free tolls

pointed out in this paper before. that

As BAD AS WAR.

The comparison OF the statistics OF

cidents IL interesting. and shows an
appalling preponderance OF fatalities

cording to the figures OF the Inter
state Commerce Commission for the
year ending June 30. 1912. the num-
Der OF passengers killed by the rail-
roads OF the country through train
accidents was 139. The number OF

killed IN the streets OF New York
alone for the year 1913 amounted to
the astounding total OF 302. largely
in excess OF the number Of persons
killed in railway train accidents In
the entire country. and but 10 less
than the total deaths from all rail-
way accidents.
This Is certainly remarkable dis

pennsylvania DEMOCRATS
QUARREL.

A family quarrel is brewing within
the Democratic party OF Pennsylvania.
which threatens to involve the officers
of the National Democratic Commit
tee. The Hon. A. Mitchell Palmer, a
very jaunty sort OF person. and num-
bered among the "old guard" OF
original Wilson men. is the National
Committeeman for Pennsylvania. In
fixing up a slate not long ago Presi-
dent Wilson stepped in and anointed
Palmer for the United States Senator
ship and Vance c. Mccormick for the
governorship. In spite OF these ad-
ministratlon endorsements Michael J.
Ryan. OF Philadelphia. had the temer-
ity TO announce his candidacy as op-
posed to Mccormick. Mr.. Palmer
was aggrieved at this assurance on
Ryan's part. and promptly accused
the Philadelphia OF not supporting
the party in 1912. therefore he could
not expect to have the support OF the
loyal Pennsylvania Democrats Mr.

Opinions of the

The Exposition.

There appears TO be a general
Awakening In West Virginia TO the
importance OF having a proper state
representation at the Panama Pa
citic international Exposition, which
viii lbe opened In San Francisco in
February. 1915.
West Nirginia's status in relation
TO this question was fully set forth
In the Herald Dispatch on last Thurs
day, and since that time other az
gressive West Virginia newspapers
have taken up the subject and have
spoken vigorously In favor OF repre-
sentation.
Expressions from leading business
men OF Huntington indicate a soil
, darity OF sentiment In favor of a
State Building, and fitting exhibit
tion of West Virginia products.
The business interests OF West
Virginia will be sadly disappointed II
the plans of the Legislators who pro-
Nided for West Virginia building
through negation on the part OF the
authorities.
IL Is true that perplexing financial
problems confront the State Admin
istration. but these problems must be
met BY a comprehensive readjust-
ment OF our revenue system. The
mere detection of the $4,000 ap-
propriated for exposition purposes will
not mend matters. nor relieve the
necessity for complete readjustment
including the discovery of new
sources of revenue
The exposition OF 1915 will be by
far the greatest expositional world
event. West Virginians want their
state TO have reasonable representa-
ton. West Virginias. by the hun
dred, will visit the exposition II
would be a sad blow TO the state
pride of these West Virginians and
to the thousands left at home. to say
nothing of what loss of opportunity
for exploitation would cost West

tation consist OF a vacant lot fenced
