perlor court, and attracted much ia
vorable attention by his judicial abili-
ty. In. 1908 Poindexter was elected as
representative from the state Of
Washington to the Sixty-first Congress.
He soon became known as an able, pro-
gressive Republican In the senate, to
which he was elevated in 1910, he was
staunch advocate of measures favor
ing the control and restriction of big
corporations, especially of the rail-
roads He sought the conservation of
all natural resources Of the country,
including water power, coal and oil
lands. Before the war he stood strong
ly for preparedness, and later he Wig
orously supported all measures of the
administration for the protection of
American rights. He advocated throw
ing the whole power of the nation into
the successful prosecution of the war
Mr.. Poindexter believes that Bolshe-
vism and all other movements destruc-
tive of representative government and
national spirit should be strongly tax
en- in hand and that leaders in at
tempts to overthrow our institutions
should be severely punished He is
opposed to any scheme for creating a
hybrid government of the world where
by Europe and Asia, in his opinion,
would inevitably dominate this country
and control its policies.

Idle Half the Time

When the railroad brotherhoods
say they can't live on present high
wages someone ought to ask them
why they don't even up the differ
ence between the cost of living and
wages by working more and loafng
less.
The railroad mans troubles is
not low wages, neither is it the
high cost Of living, but rather is it
a matter of trying to live high
while working less hours than any
other class of labor. Their present
wage is higher by far than the av-
erage thruout the country.
For it is recalled that in their
last national convention the engi-
neers limited the mileage any engi.
neer would be permitted to run
during month of a, 800 for engi-
neers on passenger trains and $500
on freight trains. after which, al
tho this would mean working only
about half the time, they must
stop and loaf during the remainder
of the month. This is the crux oi
of the situation and explainslwhy
they are not earning more-be-
cause they refuse to work like
other people.

CAPTURE THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION IN 1920?

1.-THE political center OF gravity in
the nation has shifted q to the
states that lie between the Mississippi
River and the Pacific Coast. New
York Times editorial
This opinion is typical of an idea
which is rapidly spreading throughout
the country. There is feeling that
"the West is in the saddle for the
presidential nomination in 1920"
The fact that the West decided the
last presidential election has made it
a potent factor in future calculations.
Moreover. the politicians know that in
case the woman suffrage constitutional
amendment does not become operative
in time for the next national election
there are, nevertheless, 16 states west
of the Mississippi which have already
given their women the franchise, add
ing an increment of some six million
votes, which might easily turn the cleo
ton one way or the other. Hence, the
Republican leaders of the East as well
as of the West are seriously consider
ing whether it would not be good poll
tics to take a western candidate.
1t is significant that three of the
most generally talked about presiden-
tial possibilities for 1920 come from
the Far West They are United States
Senators Poindexter, Borah and John
son.
The first mentioned, about whom
considerable discussion Is now center
ing, is from the state of Washington.
Though a native of Tennessee and
graduate of ! Virginia university,
Poindexter chose the Pacific North
west as his field for life work, opening
law practice in Walla Walla, Wash,
in 1891. Later he was judge of the su-

and without the sanction and support
of this great power candidates for
state or judicial offices could not be
elected Johnson, first as counsel for
interests opposing the railroad corpo-
ration and later as governor, waged
bitter and unremitting warfare against
railroad domination. His final victory
was potent factor in his election to
the senate In 1915. johnson is Re
publican, but generally regarded as
one of the radical type. He has, like
Poindexter, strongly opposed the
League of Nations.
Senator William e. Borah of Idaho
does not differ greatly in the degree OF
his achievements from the two other
westerners. Born in Wayne county,
ILL.,, BOrah was educated in the COM
mon schools of that state and at Kan
sas State University He was admit
ted to the bar in 1890 and devoted his
time to legal practice until his election
to the senate in 1907. Borah is one Of
the most active figures in the United
States senate. His efforts largely have
been directed toward the proper de-
velopment of the great natural re-
sources of the country, especially Of
the West. He Is known as progress
sive Republican, fearless in fighting
for what he believes to be right and,
like the others included In this presi-
Dental group, has opposed from the
start the League Of Nations covenant.
From the Atlantic to the Pacific
Coast is long jump for national poll
ties to take. However, all precedents,
both in business and politics, seem to
be vanishing in these days of remark
able readjustments, and the old theory
that a Presidential candidate must
necessarily come from east of the Mis-
sissippi is no longer tenable.

Entire Village of Wood.

The Russian village is built prin-

or with straw and stones. For this
reason there are so many fires that,
according to statistics, one-fifth of all
the peasant cottages burn down every
year, or putting 1t in another way,
every house burns down after five
years. This seems improbable, but it
is reliable information.

Much sorrow was expressed in our
community the first of last week whep
Esther May Snyder, wife of ]. McCai.
ry Snyder and daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. William J. Knott, died at mid
night Sunday, December 10Th, at the
home OF her parents Linden Spring
Farm, south of Shepherdstown. She
passed away just one week after the
death Of her infant daughter. She had
been i'll for a couple of weeks with the
prevailing influenza and complications
that followed it, and though all that
medical skill and devoted attention
could suggest was done, death could
not be stayed and she yielded to the
inevitable decree. Mrs. Snyder, who
was "a years old; was the elder daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Knott, ard was born
and reared in this community. where
she was highly regarded by all who
knew her. She graduated from Sher-
herd College in the class OF 1915, and
on December 10, 1917, was married TO
Mr.. Snyder. Although life appeared to
be full of promise to her and happiness
in large measure seemed her portion,
she was not destined to remain In this
world, and year and ten days after her
marriage she was called to heaven. In
her death the community loses good
Christian woman, and the husband and
parents a loved wife and daughter.
They have the deepest sympathy Of
their friends in the bereavement that
has come to them. The funeral SER
vice was held at her late home on
Tuesday, conducted by Rev. James H
Haley and Rev. John c. Siler, and the
body was laid to rest in Elmwood Gene
