One of the Democratic members of
the city council was not sure whether
he wanted the Sixth street bridge
construction delayed and SO he did
not vote either way. The other two
Democratic members of the council
voted to delay the same. 1t seems
they are trying their utmost to play
politics in their official position. but
they can not hide that fact. When
progressive men find something wrong
with construction work. they set about
to change the error and do not sit
around like little boys and wait until
they have ascertained who made the
error. To do that is to delay the
work and rational men know that the
fixing Of responsibility is not neces-
sary before the work is changed and
finished.

Tired of Ways, Not Him.

The Washington Post dissents from
Col. Roosevelts recent statement that
The people are tired of me-" 1t takes
the position that they are tired OF his
ways but love him just as they did
Iof old. The Post editorial as follows
is worthy OF Roosevelt's consideration
and 1t contains wholesome advice for
Bone others as we'll:
THE people are tired of me- wrote
Col. Roosevelt recently, in moment
of depression And the next day an
audience of 5000 persons gathered to
hear him speak, while 5000 more
made up an overflow meeting.
We knew it all the time! The col
onel did not fool us bit when he said
The people are tired Of me-" They
are not tired of the colonel. They like
him as well as ever, and they will
never waver in their admiration for
him.
What the people are tired of is the
hard times that reformers impose up
on them. They want progress, but
they don't want to have their pros
perity wrecked in order to get It.
They don't think such progress is
progress at all.
u When Col. Roosevelt was at the
helm no man was better a worker
for the prosperity Of the American
people. He could have anything he
wapted-all the progress and reform
he craved SO long as the people pros
pered.
Since Col. Roosevelt left Office the
people have not been quite SO flourish
ing. The colonel offered them prog
ress and reform instead of prosperity.
That's about all there is to it. Other
reformers, real and bogus, adopted
the reform cry until the country was
belabored from one end to the other
with new political Inventions, pana-
ceas, experiments, and theories, with
out single loaf Of bread or dollar
bill in the whole outfit. The work
ingman. whose family is only day or
two removed from hunger, cannot see
any merit in any reform or any pro-
gress that shuts down the mill and
throws him out Of his job If you
blame him, put yourself in his place
and see whether you would hesitate
long in choosing between prosperity
and reform.
If Col. Roosevelt will only devote
his specified talent and his nation
wide influence to a program of pros
perity., he will not have any excuse
for getting the blues and signing, "the
people are tired of me-"

Some of the Parkersburg

Some of the Parkersburg news
papers are clamoring for an ordinance
to stop petty gambling in billiard halls
by growing boys. The mooted com
mission form of government has evil
IDENTIFY overlooked this form of gamb-
ling. Clarksburg has no fad form of
government but it's code has been such
that there never was any general
complaint against the form OF gamb-
ling mentioned herein and it has never
existed to such an extent as to de-
mand official action The kickers can
say all they please about Clarksburg
but it is good place, in which to
live, nevertheless, and from the moral
viewpoint, while not as good as it
could be, it stands high in compari-
son to some other cities of the state.

| The charm of the place where
