.Iahuence of Great Truths.

An exchange uses this laEg4I&e
concerning a public man. whom u
commends:
4'GIe has an understanding Of
fundamental principles and is there
fore qualified to distinguish between
measures which will and those
which will not destroy the evils
against which they are aimed" That
is fairly and truthfully said, declares
the Ohio State Journal. The great
majority of people are not So They
make I'D their minds from mere in
clients and from standpofnts that
give no outlook, and thus thSZ injure
the country and community. Sucn
people have no idea there are such
things as fund amental principles.
They Judge all duty. from trifting cir
cumstances that affect themselves
only. Great, generous ideas do not
control. Impudent sophistry 50
easily catures the public attention.
The fact Is that argument is SO
much abused that 1t hurts more than
it benefits There have been men
who bought up an opponent and
Thought they won; but this is no
worse than winning on a false ana
lbaseIess argument. So prevalent IS
the situation that many people hold
to the idea that truth IS the hnaI
conclusion Of controversy, and there
is something in it, If we do not care
for the cost of the conflict. But the
conclusion does not involve all that
Is Important, for the effect of a false
and selfish argument on the man
who makes it is always disastrous.
and tho man hurts himself and his
cause who wins by anything less
than "a great truth.

Good Advice.

The subioined advice from the ed
itoriaI columns of the Parkersburg
Sentinel should be Of interest to
Clarksburgers who are watching loca!
bulletin boards and reading local
newspapers 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 it is furn-
ishfng war news in its various edi-
tons and on bulletin boards from
that enterprising newsgathering 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 is 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 doubtfuHy.

LOCAL COAL
Is to Be Used by the Ann Arbor
Railroad as Result of Mr..
An1os'S Visit There.

G. 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,
which has been almost exclusively
used by his railroad. He Will recon-
mend that the railway company use
West Virginia coal hereafter Mr..
Amos states that the twenty-five cent
additional tonnage charge for trans
portatiop 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 a short while until this differ
entail is removed.

members would have the patience to
read long extracts on the floor to
get them published, and those who
did attempt 1t 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, 1t is true, but, as an,
exchange points out, it is hard to
root up. these ingro wn abuses and II

ing wedge. than. to delay action any
longer by proposing change too
sweeping.

What could You expect?

Under the Wilson-Bryan admins

of yesterday, and see If this is not so
