President Also Voices DeIusion
That That Animal is Not An
Enemy to Business.
EITHER Bio OR LlTTLE.
Gives the Laugh to the "Great'
Platform Contentious of
Apostle "BiIly" Bryan.


WASHINGTON, July s.-Declaring
that 1t would be unfair to regard the
Democratic party as the enemy Of big
or little business, President "
today gave out statement In support
Of Paul Warburg. Of New York, and
Thomas Jones. Of Chicago. his nomt-
nees for the federal reserve board.
The presidents statement in part fol-
lows:
'lt would be particularly unfair to
the Democratic party az Senate
in particular to regard 1t as the enemy
of business, big or little. am sure
that it does not regard a man as an
object Of suspicion merely because he
has been connected with great bust
ness enterprises. It knows that the
business Of the country has been
chiefly promoted In recent years by
enterprises organized on great scale
and that the vast majority Of the men
connected with what we have come to
calf big business are honest, incorrupt
ible and patriotic. The country may
be certain that 1t is clear to members
Of the Senate as It is clear to all
thoughtful men that those who have
tried to make big business what it
ought to be are the men to be encour-
aged and honored whenever they re-
spond without reserve to the call Of
public Service" s7s
The president said he earnestly
hoped Mr.. Marburg would reconsider
his decision not to accept the nomina-
ton and that he was urging him to do
so. He expressed confidence that DR..
Jones would be confirmed.

Secretary Dudderar Shows the
Benefits and Why Support
Should Be Given.

g. w. Dudderar. secretary Of the
board OF trade, Wednesday issued
the following letter to the people Of
the community on "a Business Prop
osition:"
Are you a member Of the board Of
trade? Il not. we hope you may
join. But whether a member or
not. come to the meeting Friday
evening. July 10, and hear what the
organization is doing. AS. stated
before. this Is not a matter of senti-
ment, we believe It Is business
proposition. Let's see. In the seven
months. under Its present manage
ment, the expenses Of the board have
been less than $4,000. Among other
things we have located two indus
tries, one small, one large, which
will give work in the aggregate to
over 500 employees and pay out an
nually in wages about $500, 900. This
Is not paper computation but as
sure as any well expressed estab-
lished business proposition could be.
Further, within another two weeks
we have almost positive assurance Of
the locations Of two more enterprises,
one small. one large. which will en-
ploy over 800 men with an annual
payroll Of over 100000. II your
board Of trade had accomplished abb
solutely nothing less than to locate
these plants, the dividends to the
business interests of Clarksburg from
a 100000 annual payroll will be
many times as great as the cost OF
getting these Industries.
II all the men in this town who
have a business interest or a profess
sional interest in 1t were to unite for
some specific purpose, unanimously
agree on some definite line Of action,
and go out and work unitedly and
determinedly for its accomplishment
no one would need slate and PEN
oil to determine the answer.
II every man in this town believes
in himself and in Clarksburg's or
ganization that stands for the towns
development belonged to 1t with his
whole heart, and not in a perfume
tory criticizing way-can you imag-
inc anything undertaken for Clarks-
burg that wouldn't go through?
It isn't for lack Of something to
do that the board Of trade doesn't do
more. Its for lask of necessary

RESENT
Alleged Reflection upon Dance
Hall Does Young Lady Who
Forgets to Sign Name.

A young lady has mailed to the
Telegram for publication a letter in
which she asks to make known her
personal resentment toward the com
mittee that recently spoke OF the dance
hall at Elk park as though It were
immoral. She feels that It should
certainly be taken UP as 1t is a re-
fection not only to her but also to a
number of other innocent young la
dies and their friends who found It to
be perhaps the cleanest and most re-
spectacle spot on the grounds. In
the opinion Of the author Of the letter
the committee owes something Of an
apology to the manager OF the dance
hall as his dances have the highest
reputation and his orchestra is one Of
the best in the state.
Owing to the fact that the young
lady neglected to sign her name to the
letter, the Telegram cannot publish
it. II she will make known her iden-
tity, not necessarily for the purpose
OF publication, the Telegram will glad
ly give her contribution space in these
columns,

DAYTON'S CASE WILL
BE UP ON DEMURRER
To An Indictment as 1t Were
before the House Judi
ciary Committee.
tseEelAL Id rME r.LloRAMl

WASHINGTON, D. c., July g.
When the Dayton case comes up be-
fore the House committee on the ju-
dietary tomorrow morning, It Is un-
derstood that the method Of pro-
cedure will be very much in the ma
ture OF demurrer to an indictment.
The committee will consider the
case on the facts presented by both
sides, either as whole, or by appoint
ing subcommittee to do 1t. The
facts the committee has consist OF the
charges filed against Judge Dayton,
the Neely resolution asking for his
impeachment, and affidavits In sup
port Of these charges; the original
and supplemental answers Of Judge
Dayton, the answer Of Arthur Dayton,
and numerous iaffidavits In support of
the Dayton side ofthe case.
It Is on all Of this that the commit
tee will base It's report to the House
whether or not there are sufficient
grounds in the case to warrant i'm
peachment proceedings being insti-
tuted by the House.
There will be no attorneys, no wit
nesses at this time, It is understood
to be the wishes of Chairman Flood of
the committee, and the public session
OF the committee will be Just long
enough to permit Representative
Neely to present affidavits IN support
OF the formal. charges. signed by
Messrs. Belcher and Montgomery,
which are already on file before the
committee. Then the committee will
consider what report It will make on
the Neely resolution providing for the
impeachment OF Judge Dayton In the
light Of the charges, denials and affi-
davits It has before It.
