THE LEGISLATURE.

When the counties salaries bill was
taken up by the Senate there was a
scramble to increase the already gener-
Gus salaries, and about $4,000 increase
over the original bill was made. Inc
House refuses TO concur in this eXtfav-
agance and the hill may die.
The bill amending the Charles Town
corporation charter was passed in tile
Senate.
The Public Service Commission bill. d
measure scandalously partisan and with
many doubtful provisions, passed both
houses.
Both houses passed the bill providing
for the establishment of normal training
departments in high schools.
The Gregory lioel bill, which was
plainly intended TO muzzle the news
papers of the State, and which would have
made newspaper comments colorless,
was defeated in the Senate yesterday
after a hard fight.
The Governor sent special message
TO the Legislature, recommending the
imposition OF a corporation income tax OF
one-half of one per cent on net incomes,
and a land tax on all holdings in excess
OF five thousand acres. He also Sug-
gested as addition i sources OF revenue,
but does not insist upon II, tax on the
privilege OF mining and selling coal.
petroleum and natural gas, and a license
tax on all things mined or manufactured
within the State for the purpose OF sale.

THE congressional committee that has
been investigating charges against Judge
Dayton in West Virginia the past week
has put in full time, having conducted
hearings in ParkerSburg and Wheeling.
and great many curious facts have been
brought out. 1t is apparent that good
deal of the opposition to Judge Dayton is
the result OF personal prejudice and an
tagonism-on the part OF labor leaders
whom he has restrained with severity,
politicians with whom he has had differ
ences, and lawyers who have been ag-
grieved in his court. One regrettable
thing is the uncovering OF dead mems
bones. The late Judge Jackson's faults
have been made public and scandals in
his private life have been dragged out.
Few persons will approve OF calumniating
the dead in order to make point against
the living.
The hearings are to be continued in
Washington, and former President Roose-
welt will be called to give his testimony
in regard to the appointment of Judge
Dayton as Judge Jackson's successor.

A SERIOUS condition OF affairs has been
brought about by the announcement by
Germany that she will declare all the wa
tiers surrounding Great Britain as war
zone, in which ships will sail at their peril.
Germany means to destroy all English
ships possible, whether war We sells or
peaceful merchantmen, and frankly admits
that her dreaded submarines are liable 10
make mistakes ard sink vessels of neutral
countries. The United States sent note
TO Germany protesting against her in
tention to thus interfere with ships of
peaceful nations on the high seas. and
Germany has replied, virtually telling our
government TO mind its own business.
The President will not permit our ships
TO be destroyed without cause, and there
is danger that the United States may be
involved in the war.

THE President is TO be commended Tor
one thing: When he believes thata thing
is wholly right he doesn't agree to any
compromise that will make it just halt
right. If he can't get the proper sort OF
shipping bill he will not agree TO any.

THERE seems 10 be no chance whatever
that the Legislature will place aprOduction
tax upon oil, coal and gas as producer
OF revenue. The big and influential cor
porationS that control these commodities
are powerful enough TO control the Situa-
ton, and though probably nine-tenthS OF
the legislators are at heart in favor Of this
just and fair method OF raising revenue,
they are controlled by the party bosses
who fear to offend the corporations. The
wealthy companies thus being successful
in evading their share OF the increase,
the burden will fall upon ordinary people,
who never rise above the point OF grum-
bling and who with blind partisan preju-
dice will kiss the hand that SmiteS them
and at the next election vote fol- the very
gang that Expresses them.

LET us hope that the Legislature will
not pass the full-crew law for which a
certain class OF railroad employees are
clamoring. 1t is an injustice to the rail-
roads and would impose burden upon
them which would eventually find lis

1T is evident that whatever other legiS-

bound TO be an increase in taxation to
meet the expenses OF the many additional

GOVERNOR HATFIELD seems 10 have
deep-seated grievance against the news
papers OF the State, and expresses very
bitter sentiments toward them. Wethink
that the Governor errs in making his con-
demnation so sweeping. The Register is
one OF a number OF newspapers that has
not uttered one word OF unfriendly criti-
ciSm since he has been in the Governors
chair-on the contrary, we have COM
mended him on many occasions. 1t may
be that some papers have been unfair to-
ward him, but there are many that have
shown him entire respect and considera-
ton.

THE cause OF woman suffrage has made
great gains the past week or two. The
New Jersey Legislature has passed a bill
providing tor vote OF the people on the
question mex, September, and in MasSa-
chusettS the measure providing for a
vote on a suffrage amendment next fall
has also been passed by the Legislature.
Measures providing for suffrage are now
being considered by the legislatures Of
Delaware and Indiana. TIE Iowa Senate
has passed bill providing for suffrage,
and it is expected TO get through the
House. The women are just bound TO
come into their own.
