faster going to first than any man in

Bert Shottou Of the st. Louis Browns
is Il streak going to first. He pulls
the average infeld in ten feet when he
is at bat. This is necessary because
on an ordinary bounder the infelder
cannot complete the mechanics of his
play-the fielding and throwing Of the
ball-fast enough to intercept Shotton
at first when playing back.
Robertson, it seems, is faster than
Shotton. \ race between the two on
the bunt and run to first would be en-
tertaining.
It would seem that one day set aside
each season that all the players might
compete i'll running. throwing. batting,
etc. would be Il profitable thing, as
certainly it would be edifying. The
records of the mechanical part of the
game are poorly kept and seldom al
luded to. y baseball field day would
be more interesting than a track meet.

PLAUSIBLE BUT WONT DO.

THERE is a new hand at The bellows in the factory
! where the Democratic press agents perform their
arduous labors. The new man is smooth. None
of the rough stuff for him. He knows that the overlords
who are putting up the money expect; nay, require, that
the personal abuse Of Governor Hatfield be continued,
but at the same time he knows that such methods garner
no votes, and he has tried the sympathy racket upon the
10000 Republicans who voted against Hatfield" which
is the approved Democratic way Of saying the Republicans
that voted for Lilly at the primary election.
1t is a plausible move and if there was any real soreness
in the Republican party over the result Of the primary cleo
ton it might be good for a lot Of votes for the Democratic
ticket and against the gentlemen who are running as Re-
pubicans. But after all the primary campaign was a fam
lily affair. Pretty nearly all the members Of the Republic
can party had ideas about whom they would like to vote
for at the general election. but that is no sign that those
who did not get what they wanted would now prefer to
vote for Democrats.
In a presidential year and at a lime like the present
practically every Republican feels that it is his duty to
support the whole ticket even if it is not exactly to his lik-
ing. The national organization is looking to the Republi-
cans of this state to help them get the country out of the
hands of the inefficient Democrats and put it in a position
where it will be able to hold its own in the keen CONNER
cial war which is bound 10 follow the war now going on
in Europe. This is no time to pout over the outcome of a
primary fight and the Republicans Of West Virginia know
it. In spite of the sympathy and the allurements extended
by the Democratic organization, they are going to make
good in the eyes of the Republicans of the entire nation
by doing their duty.
When it is all over if there is any soiled party linen to
launder or any grudges to settle they will attend 10 it at
the FIRST occasion when it can be done without b%ene6tting
the common enemy.

a CHARGE TO KEEP.

A CCORDING to an announcement of the Republican,
n Publicity Association the national organization Of
the Republican party is depending upon West Vn-
sinia to elect a Republican United States senator and a
solid Republican delegation to the lower house. This is
part Of the grand plan to redeem the country from Demo-
cratic misrule. and like old Jofre upon whose devoted
head the destiny Of France rested. the party chiefs expect
fpe men in this sector to do their whole duty. Anything less
nan that will not do.
Naturally the expectation cannot be fulfilled unless the
West Virginia organization right down to The last COM
miteeman in the smallest district sets out to elect the entire
Republican ticket. In order to be successful at all there
must be a grand push; a concerted effort all along the line.
If that kind of tactics are adhered to the result will be
certain and victory comparatively easy.
In making the announcement of what is expected from
this state in 1916 the Republican Publicity Association
quoted from the World Almanac some highly significant
election statistics for the congressional elections Of two
years ago. According to these the total Republican vote
in the state exceeded the total Democratic vote by about
1900. The exact figures are, Republican, l07,7S3;
Democratic. l06,3l7. In that election there were 1886
votes cast for Progressive candidates. The best claim so
far made by Democratic statisticians with regard to the
Progressive vote is that Wilson will get 30 per cent of it.
On that basis they manage to figure a victory for their
candidate in the nation, but it spells ruin in the State Of
West Virginia.

From the Pittsburgh Gazette!Times.
The war is having the effect of turn.
ing all nations more distinctly toward
the doctrine Of protection, which has
been a prominent tenet of the Repub.
lican party since its organization.
There was a time when Great Britain
was the worlds banker, collecting toll
from all nations for the use Of her cap.
ital. She was chief among mercantile
marine carriers and collected freight
from all shippers. In a sense she be-
came the worlds warehouseman for
certain commodities produced in vari.
GUS parts of the globe by enterprises
owned or controlled by English capt.
tai. She was the great financial mar.
ket for international securities. She
was banker, broker and all.round mid.
dleman in world traffic, taking COM.
missions coming and going. Natural.
ly. she was a free trader. Under chang.
ed conditions, she is just as naturally
embracing the principle of protection.
Dreams have been entertained that
the United States would some day

conditions it would not be safe to sur

protection. Great Britain has found
that her position is NJ. impr enable.
She has found that under certain con-

MISTAKEN ECONOMY.

THE way in which the Board Of Affairs handled a
request of citizens for a light on Hill Crest sheds a
lotSof light upon the way the members of the board
rerebratc, even if there is small prospect that the rays of
ri ylamps will soon be shed upon that dark spot
Citizens who made the request for lights explained that
drunken auto parties and other Objectionable people take
advantage of the existing darkness to c~ongregate on the
bill. But the Board demuned because the. number Of
lights that would be required would cost more than the
taxpayer Of Hill Crest pay. One report of the meeting
says that one light at that point would cost as much in one
year as The entire amount of taxes paid in.
That way Of looking at this matter may appeal to the
City Commissioners as emnently wise and businessIke, but
il scarcely does credit to the intelligence and public spirit
Of lie taxpayers Of the city.
As his newspaper sees it the proper illumination of Hill
Crest Is a matter Of public morals in which the entire city
