JUDGE WADE MUST COME TO
COURT OR PAY FINE

Judge Edward Wade, who seemed
to think that because he was elected
by the people to see that the law was
enforced he was not liable to its pro-
visions himself, is going to pay $40
fine assessed against him or get in
bad. That was the declaration of
Judge Harry Moran in the speeders'
court today.
Judge Moran seemed peeved be-
cause neither Judge Wade nor his at
torney, Jas Wilkerson, had appeared
in court today to make a motion for
a new trial that he had asked for.
"Iu give Judge Wade until Mon
day to make this new trial motion.
After that he'll have to pay the fine 1
set against him or deal with me, =
declared Judge Moran today.

CORONER HEARS FROM WOMEN
WHO WERE ON DEATH RIDE

Three new angles cropped up to-
day in the mystery that followed the
death of Maud Marchant near the
House That Jack Built" on the
north shore when an uto@occupied
by wild party of joy riders turned
over.
Detective Sergeant Geo. Scrivener
reported to Coroner Hoffman that
there were four women in the party
when Miss Marchant was killed.
Coroner Hoffman heard that Miss
Mabel Hemming, chum of the dead
girl, was spirited away so she could
not appear to testify. Hoffman
threatened prosecution if this were
true.
States Atty Hoyne announced he
would send an investigator to the in
quest this afternoon to see if there is
any possibility of grand jury action
in the case. He said he would go to
the bottom of the mystery. No
names or regulations will be spared
in showing up the truth.

And one. when sprung outward, still

Prompt ACTION DEMANDED

Now that the questioned legality or
the votes cast in several precincts IN
county in the June prl'
nnaries has been taken to the courts
by General Lilly, who contests the
nomination Of Judge Robinson. 1t is i'm
perative that there should be an I'M
mediate adjudication Of these conten-
tons. II; General Lilly is sincere in
/ his declarations he will use every ct
fort personally, as we'll as urge his le-
ssi Representatives. to have the court
expedite . any inquiry that Is to be
made In these cases, or others. He Is
entitled to fair hearing OF any CON-
plants he may have with regard to
any Of the alleged irregularities he
has cited.
- Il a disposition Is shown. however,
I to 1oiter in the courts, 10 erade
prompt settlement OF the technical
questions involved. then it will be as
{ sumed that the proceedings have not
&been honestly taken. and that the pro-
I longationtof the contest mas been IN
dertaken through Interior motives.
There is only one way 70 escape such
8 conclusion, and it is hoped that II
may: be pursued faithfully and earnest
" so as 10 make an end Of this strife
(which, if continued. will not only serve
to keep alive discord but will greatly
+ imperil the unity OF the Republican
party necessary for a successful issue
at the November election.
Itais not conceivable that General
Lily and his friends have any de-
sire or intention to promote any such
zperil by their present action. but they
must see that such will be the effect
/ sif they do not do all in their power
to hasten a final decision.

and prepare ourselves for conserva-
ton. Left to>itself our prosperity. Will
not continue. Most Of the foreign
countries will be thoroughly protected
by tariff provisions and We should be
protected by reasonable and sufficient
laws" Who is going 10 do that? Ger
tainly not the Democratic party,
which has just recommitted itself to
the principles OF the Underwood bill.
The only hope Of the country lies IN
the Republican party. whose policies
now stand, as they have ever stood,
for American interests first, and never
for that benevolence 70 the foreign
manufacturer and producer as Is con-
centrated in the Democratic tariff poll
Giles, present and past.
In the name of the commonest COM
mon sense, the most ordinary concep-
ton of the situation, why Is 1t that
the Democrats will insist on clinging
to their frayed out free trade traditions,
when all the foreign countries arc
adopting the protective policy. How
can they keep on in their confusion,
when such an eminent disciple Of free
trade as Premier Hughes Of Australia
refuses to be butted longer by the
economic goat, and declares his con-
version to protection. In a statement
made a short time ago he said:
I certainly approach the matter with
out bias against what Is called Free
Trade. When fiscalism WAS a live quc::-
ton In Australia l was a Free Trader
of Free Traders. The Wealth of Ma
lions" was by Bible: Adam Smith was
my prophet. Hut il was always dlscon,
certing TO me to see how blind the world
has been TO the great virtues of Free
Trade Tried by This standard. 1t would
appear that Britain was the only coun-
try in the world that was in step!
But il it were a question or FREQ
Trade only effecting our pockets. the fis-
cal question might fairly be left TO set
tie itself. But it reaches down into the
very roots Of our lives. You cannot gro
coed upon the assumption that the eco
monte policy OF nation has M relation
to It's national welfare. The relations
mate and complex. This fact is funda-
mental: to Ignore It Is not only TO In
vite but insure national destruction. For
a time the trade of nation that treats
trade as though il had no connection
with national safety may make great
strides, as did ours, but thcrn comes a
day of reckoning TO such nations. AS 1t
has come to u.s.

LOYALTY DAY-JULY Is

IS The mass meeting which endorsed
the suggestion of Loyalty Day dent
onstration in most enthusiastic man
ner, was a large outpouring OF the
citizenship OF Wheeling and represen'
tive in the highest degree. One Of the
purposes OF tiny meeting WAS the selec-
zion OF a date for The demonstration.
which was fixed for Saturday. July Is.
The affair was put in the hands Of
competent committee that will make
all arrangements for carrying ont the
idea of the projectors OF a public pro
fession OF the undiluted loyalty and
patriotism of the Wheeling community.
It is in one sense 10 be an informal
affair, in that no individual. organiza-
ton or society is 10 stand on the cere-
mony Of an Invitation but is expected
to participate in the parade. 10 respond
to the call as they would were the
country in imminent danger. Besides

people insthe Wheeling district, from
Steubenrille' to Bellaire on the Ohio
side and from Wellsburg 20 Mounds
vile on the West Virginia side of the
river. AS we have material interests
In common there is all the greater
reason why our patriotic Impulses
should have q common expression Of
devotion to country and a pledge to
the highest order OF, citizenship.
1t matters little that the menace OF
war with Mexico has subsidized and that

THE RESULT OF INDEC1SION

II is emnentlv a fair proposition
that the national government should
make provision for the dependent fam
lilies OF the enlisted guardSmen VINO
have suddenly been called 10 defend
the nation. At present the Senate and
House is deadlocked as 10 the extern
sion OF this relief. But this situation
could have been avoided if the admin
istration had been alive to the condi-
tons that now obtain and had the
country in such a state OF pre-
paration that the present hurried call
would not have included men with de-
pendent families. II the present adj
n,inistration had done its duty when
the lessons Of the great European war
had made that duty so plain. this coun-
try would have had for two years
system. OF universal service by which
all the yonug men of the nation would
al least have had some physical train
ing. and there would have been al
ready in existence a body OF unmar'
ried men liable to the first call for
duty. There would have been no such
story of preparedness as this coun-
try has known for the last three
months.
And it certainly was not for lack or
warning that the administration has
been so behindhand in its duties, as
we all know. The leading officers OF
the army and navy have been urglve
on the President, for two years. the,
danger Of unpreparedness But it was
not until a great public sentiment WAS
awakened when neither President nor
Congress dared any longer to Ignore,
that any action whatever was taken;
and. when action did come, it was so
'tardy and so unwise that each sue
ceeding day shows its pitiful made
Guacy. Congress in enacting the law
which practically forces this country
TO call upon men TO leave dependent
families 10 save the little army in
Mexico. passed that law in the face
of the protest Of the intelligent senti-
ment of the whole country.
