The Call Of The Hour.

Amid the wreck of matter and the
crash of worlds. :" while the earth
shudders beneath the tread of contend
ing armies where millions of men in a
death grapple are trying each to des-
troy the other; while bitter animosities
are being engendered which will might
ly effect for evil every child born in all
of Europe during this fearful period,
making it true in the future as an old
historian said of Rome, that the hu-
man harvest was bad, !" we, as nation
and as individuals should be profoundly
grateful that we are free from the en-.
tangling alliances that have brought
about this disastrous situation abroad.
In no way responsible for it, duty to
ourselves and duty to the. rest of the
world demands that we make the most
of the opportunity.
Every effort made to advance our
own trade, to build up our own indus
tries. and to increase our financial and
commercial power, is strengthening
of the forces Of civilization. and we
would be recreant to our duty if we did
not, to the utmost of our ability, utilize
the opportunity.
We may well set before the world
the example of nation inspired by
patriotism higher than that which. fin6s
its chief expression in death and de-
struction; patriotism which finds its
highest expression in creative work to
utilize God given advantages and to
create prosperity instead of poverty, /
to bring life instead of death.
This is the call of the hour to the
people of this country Manufacturers

Fair Play to Japan.

It must be admitted that for
Japan to jump on Germany when
she has her hands full at home
.doesn' t exactly look like cricket"
And yet, won't her action COM
pare favorably with the Kaiser's
bounding of poor little SerVia;
of his gross violation of gallant
little Belgium's neutrality-sac-
red1y ~ guaranteed by him; Of
his =barbarous hold-up Of Brus-
sells for 'indemnity?".
Chickens generally come to
roost, land when the kaiser
without any proper interest in
the question-by his attitude de-
priyed Japan of the fruits of vic
tory of her war with China, he
was unconsciously preparing to
reap the whirlwind.
Germany's tenure of her Chi
nese territory under a ninety
nine YEARS. lease" is the acme of
hypocrisy anyhow. In view of
her contempt for all moral obli-
cations she has no standing be-
fore the Court of Nations to
which international litig an S
must come with clean hands to
command respect.
And how must Pagan Japan
regard Christian CD Germany
and her missionaries, in view of
the crime against civilization now
being perpetuated?

The Apple Market Outlook.

With the best apple crop
both in size and qnality-in sight
in the history of the industry in
this section, growers are face to
face with conditions which are
far from reassuring, mainly ow-
ing to the probable export COM
plcations as a result of the war.
1t is true that the total per-
centage of the crop of the United
States exported, is not large in.
comparison with the domestic
consumption, but the comparison
does not hold as to the crop of
this immediate section. A re1a-
lively large volume goes to the
United Kingdom and Europe.
It would seem that shipments
to Germany would be impractical
BILE for some time to come, and
while the Atlantic may be
clear for cargoes destined for
other European ports, yet the
high freight and insurance rates
likely to prevail, no less than the
impairment OF the purchasing
capacity of the countries now at
war, would force us to both seek
new export outlets to S o t h
America in particular and to
stimulate home consumption as
never before.
Moderate prices early in the
season are not a bad thing for
the grower in the long run, as if
retail prices of apples in compar-
ison with other fruits, are low,
consumers get in the habit Of
using the King of Fruits and
continue to buy even at enhanced
prices until we'll into the Spring.
At this juncture, if early ex-
portation-is feasible, good share
of the crop can doubtless be NOV
ed that way to the best possible
advantage.
Then, with careful grading
and attention to the pack and
storage, a fairly steady and re-
munerative domestic market may
be found by those who realize
the importance of quality rather
than quantity and are not afraid
of the size of their cull-pile.

Mr.. Robert Shirley.

THE old order changeth, !" and
with the change depart those who
have made the country what it is
by integrity, industry and fidelity
to duty. y
Jefferson, in the death of Mr..
Robert Shirley loses one of its
Oldest and most loyal sons and
one who tvpifed its citizenship.
For close to century he had
lived in the community in which
he peacefully passed away 1ast
week. During his long life he
had been a patron of the Free
Press, as had his forbears, and
his loyal and friendly encourage
ment of its aims and inspirations
will be missed.
In all relations towards his fell
low man he had been tried in the
balance and not found wanting,
and the force of his high charac-
ter will be felt long after even
those af his blood who worthily
uphold the family traditions, have
too, passed away,
May he rest in peace.

Extols His Wealth.

One of the arguments that George
M. Bowers, Republican nominee for
Congress, advanced to the delegates
why they should nominate him for Con-
gress was that he owned seven farms,
was director in EVERY bank in Ber-
kelley county, stakeholder in the mills
and stone quarries located in Berkeley
county and he was large stakeholder
in orchards, one of which alone would
produce $4,000 barrels of apples this
year. He submitted no evidence of his
qualifications to fill the Office of Con-
gresham; he made no announcement
of the class of legislation he would adj
vocate and vote for if elected He was
evidently laboring under the impression
that all that was required of the can
didate was to convince the delegates
that he was a near Rockefeller.
Under the old Republican regime in
in this State that was all the creden-
tials candidate had to submit when
ask ing for a Republican nomination.
1t was for this reason that the corrupt
practice actwas enacted into law. Is
it possible that Mr.. Bowers is no
aware of this law !? Does Mr. Bowers
think he can buy his way into Congress?
We would be sorry to think that he had
such an idea. But why did he extol
his wealth to those delegates. who had
the power to nominate ! To say the
least it was strange procedure in cleo
pioneering. Preston County Rough

Queer Fable About Cotton.

to make its principal center in Lam

quaint and wonderful fable Of the

Washington Letter.
from Geo. w. summets.)

Washington, August Is. For several
days within the past week interest in
West Virginia affairs has been trans
ferred from Washington to Richmond.
the capitol of the old Southern Confed-
eracy, and present location of the Fed
eral Reserve Bank with which almost
allof West Virginia will be associated.
While Congress has been doing little
of special interest to West Virginians,
the final hearing in the Virginia debt
suit has been on in Richmond. Charles
E. LittlefelG. special master of the
Supreme Court of the United States,
has heard the testimony of West Vir-
ginia regarding the claims which it has
made for credits on the amount set
aside by the court as West Virginia s
part of the old State debt. For nearly
two months West Virginia has had
about dozen accountants going over
the books and the result of their inves-
LEGATIONS had been presented as testi-
mony before the MASTER. in support of
West Virginia's contention that the
amount of the debt, for which West
Virginia has been found to be LIABLE
shoul5,be reduced by at least SIS, 600. 900
because of assets owned by Virginia at
the time of the separation of the
States, for which West Virginia has
received no credit. Master Littlefeld
announced that he would take testi-
mony and make report.
The campaign of 1914 will soon open
in West Virginia. The nominations
are all made and the candidates are
known. Democratic, Republican and
Prog ressives are getting in shape for
the fray, and from now till the Bird day
of November the State is expected to
be battle-ground for the three politi-
cal parties. Theodore Roosevelt, the
founder of the Progressive party, has
promised to make speaking campaign
in West Virginia in behalf of the Pro-
gressive candidates there. Plans Of
campaign for the Democrats have not
been made, or at least has not been an
noupced, further than that Congress
man Nicely has again selected his part
ner, Henry Lively, of Fairmont, for.
chairman of his Congressional Commit
tee, while Congressman Brown has
been authorized to select the chairman
of the Second District Democratic Com.
mittee, but has not done so yet. It is
expected that all the machinery viii
soon be started for the campaign and
that it will be kept up vigorously till
election day.
Roth Democrats from West Virginia
in the House of Representatives have
been remaining steadily in attendance
uoon the House The situation brought
about by the European war situation,
is such that it is considered impossible
for Congress to adjourn. Many mem
bers of the House have left for their
homes to get into their campaigns, but
Congressman Nicely and Brown have
remained here, and expect to remain SO
long as Congress remains. and that,
probably means that they will not be
able to make much of a campaign this
fall,
The search for West VIrginians who
have been in travelling in Europe is be-
ing continued by the State Department.

A good many persons from the State
have been abroad and many of them
have not been heard from since the
war started The State Department
is trying to locate all Americans for
