given an enthusiastic demonstration.
In the course Of a lengthy speech
which was one Of the best he has yet
made IL the campaign he replied di
rectly to attacks made on him by his
opponents In a speech at Hinton yes
terday.
Among other things he said II no
tice that Mr.. Cornwell, in his Hinton
speech yesterday, accuses Sme Of bad
faith toward the friends OF governor
Hatfield and those Of General Lilly
This indiactes that he is playing both
ends and tn emiddle. He began on
this small line Of craftsmanship in the
very first speech he made. Ny rec

West Virginia, for which my party
stands is the real issue and It must
not be personality, as the party is
the candidate"

CHARLESTON. w. Va, Sept. 90
John J. Cornwell, in his frantic at
tempts to get $4,000 Republican
votes. has Numbered into the same
old story that the people of West vir-
ginia are paying three times as much
In salaries for their state officers as
thcy did when Democrats controlled
the state. But he is careful to say
nothing about what went into the
pockets of certain Democrats in the
way of fees in those old days, which,
had he at any time attempted to ex-
plain away, would have only invited
disaster. Unfortunately for Corn
well. the State Of West Virginia pub
!ishes now under Republican admin
istration, a complete audit Of its
financial affairs every year.
The comparison between the dis
tribution Of taxation for the fiscal
year ending June 80, 1916, and that
In 1897, the last year the Democrats
had control Of the financial affairs of
the state, is possibly the strongest
recommendation for every nominee
on the Republican ticket this year,
from Governor down. because the fig
uIes show that corporations escaped
taxation almost entirely under Demo
cratic rule, while the plain people
bore the whole burden Of tine states
government, when the small property
holders paid not only their part OF
the state taxes, but also paid most OF
the taxes Of those whom, Cornwell
rays, are now paying many times the
sum they did under the Democratic
regime.
The total amount paid for sala.
ries Of state officers In 1916, is S25.-
400, and it Is true that in 1897 this
amount was only marked up as
$500. or about one-third as much.
But the keI mel IN the nut which Mr.,
Cornwell prefers not to pick out of
the shell is this: The Democrats had
fee system which was enrichinz
them, while these fees did not show
