MOST EFFECTIVE LABOR LAW IN THE WORLD
The most effective labor legislation ever placed on the statute
books is the protective tariff law. exemplifying the cardinal principle
of the Republican faith.
The most defective labor legislation ever enacted is the tariff-t'or
revenue-onlv law, whicll has twice been put on the statute books in
over fifty years by the democratic party, exemplifying its economic
policy.
Under the Republican protective tariff the American wage earner
has enjoyed the highest remuneration of his class in the world.
Under the two limited periods when the Democratic revenue
tariff obtained the American wage earner worked at the lowest wage
he ever received, and most of them received no wage at all because
there was no work.
Under a Republican protective tariff the country prospered, the
people were contented, the National Treasury had a surplus after
paying all expenses of government and meeting all appropriations of
Congress.
Under the institution of the Democratic free trad"1 law labor was
afflicted, the Treasury was emptied, and the people were taxed to:
provide for the expenses of government. j
Under the Democratic tariff the mills and factories were closed,
and unemployed labor shivered in the luvad line. There were noj
wages because there was no work.
This happened after the passage of the Wilsou-Cornian bill inj
18!.)o. Those days of disaster and distress were duplicated when the
Underwood-Simmons bill was enacted in lflo. Both periods are
history: they are not the subjects of theoretical speculation.
The only thing that has saved the country from greater industrial'
prostration and labor from more intolerable suffering was the inter-1
veution of the Kuropeau war. which raised a temporary protective;
barrier, acting as a Republican protective tariff law would have!
operated.
What prosperity we have now is really due to the principle of;
v the protective tariff, as Europe stopped selliug us goods and began J
^ to purchase enormous supplies. But behind all this lies the ghost of!
? want, poverty and distress, which will ris" again when the phantom
protection of war vanishes and the Underwood-Simmons bill resumes
* again unrestricted operation.
^ hat i> labor going to do to prevent the recurrence of the dark
days before the war" -lust one thing. V oi ? for the re-establishment'
f of the protective tariff by casting their ballots for Charles Kvnns
; Hughes for President, and the Republican candidates for Congress
and Senate.
Labor now knows, or ought to know, through dear bought
. experience, that the Republican party has given it the only effective'
labor law. and that the Democratic party has forced upon it the onlv!
defective labor law. It is an easy choice.

? From Judge Kobinsvn's address at
Sutton.
3lN unchallenged kecord
Neither the Democratic candidate
for governor nor the Democratic press
has harped on anything else in i his
campaign but petty non-essentials, es
chewing all reference to the vital is
sues before the people. They have ab
solutely refused to have anything to j
say against ihe sreat constructive !
say against the great constructive j
Virginia. They haw offered nothing !
to promote the further progress of the j
State or the welfare of the people, j
They are negative in everything. The
progressive and serviceable legislation
that the Republicans have placed on
the statute books is at stake, if the
Democrats should obtain control of
the State they wouid destroy where
the Republicans have buiided. The in- j
terests back of the Cornwell candi-!
dacy an- dedicated to that object. j
What :.? T his legislation which rhe !
Republic:- r..- ar" fighting to preserve?]
Let us attain ^numerate the principal'
features that the people may see woatj
they are in danger of losing if the Wat- j
son interests get control of the gov- !
ernment. The Republican party of I
?West Virginia has abolished the [.er-|
nicious fee system in State offices i
which has sav?>d the state ?780,0'X'; j
abolished of all r>es in all county of-1
fices. saving the counties of th* state!
more than a quarter of a million dol- !
lars a year: provided for county depos- !
itories. which now pay interest on all j
county funds, while before this bwj
was passed the interest went into 'h>* (
pockets of rhe Sheriff, reformed 'hel
tax laws and put on the tax rolls al- i
most $400.000, Ow of corporate proper- 1
ty which had before eluded taxation 1
almost entirely.
It passed the uniform acrminttaz I
law, so that accounts in all counties!
are now on a uniform system: abol
ished a large number of cumbersome |
boards and condensed the work in
the State Board of Control, which nas
! introduced economy to state institu
tions; passed the hydro-electric law,
j which provides for the development of
| water power under state regulation,
giving safety to the people and a re
turn to the state treasury for valuable
water privileges: gave the laboring
classes rhe Workingmen's Compensa
jrion Law. which prevents cosily iitiga
I tion following accidents and deaths in
| industrial development and providen
jfcelp for dependents; gave the farmer
I the pure seed law; gave the house
wives the weights and measures act,
so that no person can cheat and es
cape liability to punishment; and the
Republican party is the party wnich
has given the people Hie Public Utli-!
jities Commission, lias more than
[trebled the number and service of the
various state institutions, and more

This is the unchallengeable record
of achievements that the Democratic
party does not dare attack.
Candidate Cornwell .says that it costs!
40 per ccnt to administer the Work- 1

????* it takes only 5 p>?r cent, the cheap

THE HUGHES ALLIANCE
The National Hughes Alliance has
been organized in almost every State
in the union, and is doing good worii
in promoting the election of a man to j
the Presldeucv 'hat meets the needs
of the hour in every respect. It is
working along nou-partisan lines in
that It invites Into its communion
every voter who believes in the ef
fective preparedness of this nation
against either military or trade in
vasion. We cannot be secure against!
the one if we falter in the other. If j
we do not protect our industries we j
cannot protect ourselves against I
| armed attack.
The young men of the country are
j vitally interested in this feature of
j i lie ca:npaigu, because all their hopes
lie in future fulfillment; their inter
I ests depend on what the future has
! in store. Charles Evans Hughes i
stands for a vigorous government and j
those stable policies which will com
mand the respect of foreign nations;
which will afford protection to Ameri
can citizens at home as well as abroad,
'["he Democratic administration has!
I shamefully neglected tbe one duty and \
llias made no adecpiate protection for j
our home interests when the war shad j
cease.
Such a cause as Mr. Hughes repre- j
seats should enlist every young man j
| in the country under its banner. He]
has been tried, and we know what he
will do. He is dependable under ali
j circumstances. One can stand by him
1 without being compelled continually
I to hop from post to pillar. The Wheel
ins Hughes Alliance invites the mem
bership of all forward looking young j
! men who are inspired by the pat riotic
need of the times. Joint with it now
: and help elect a dependable man to
the Presidency.
What does Charles Evans Hughes j
stand for He stands where Lincoln,
stood in 1S63. "that government of the |
people, by the people, and for the people, I
shall not perish from the earth."
WHAT HUGHES WILL DO j
Charles Evans Hughes has answered j
openly and freely all the questions pro
pounded to him by hired hecklers of
; the Democratic campaign managers,
| who had hoped to embarrass him. Th> j
j other candidate observes a smug sl
j lence or. all questions, when he does
j no: by adroit phrasing; evade tlieiu.
| The favorite Democratic apology for
I Wilson lias been "what would you have
done." Mr. Hughes has been emphatic !
I in declaring that when he becomes!
| President, he will appoint a man as
Secretary of State who will back up '
what the President says and not tell
the Austrian Government that we ate
j bluffing.
.Mr. Hughes will not reward traitors
to the nation with high office. He will
not and would not sign a sundry civil
I bill that makes a law for one class and i
j exempts another class from its opera
I tion. .Mr. Hughes will not attempt to
dictate who shall be the head of Mexi
co; nor will he attempt to dictate who
shall run for office in that or other
nations.
Mr. Hughes will never send the Unit
ed States fleet into a foreign port and
demand a saluto for the flag and then
order the fleet to come home without
that salute; and he wouldn't call that
bloody campaign "peace."
Mr. Hughes will never send the Unit
to fight for the honor of the nation or
the protection of American Jives.
Mr. Hughes will not appoint two so
cialists into his cabinet, nor will he
endorse other socialists for office even
if they should succeed in winning a
nomination from his party.
Mr. Hughes will not surrender the
principle of arbitration to force from
any labor leaders; he will never stand
for a hold-up by any body of men,
either capitalists or workers.
Mr. Hughes, when President, will
| never subordinate duty for expediency.
The Democratic effort to placate thci
German vote Is one of the most oon
j temptible pieces of hyprocrip.v the art- 1
1 ministration has bcon guilty of. Who's
disloyal, now?
THE "JOLLY ROGERS"
The conspiracy of the "Jolly Itog
ors" in an effort, to embarrass Judge
Robinson, accrediting him with brok
en pledges he never made, has fallen
flat. It was simply a scheme to fur
ther the fortunes of the special in
terests, which have always been ar
rayed in opposition to the progressive
and constructive legislative program
of the Republican party.
The men who were behind this con
spiracy are enough to disclose its pur
pose. They are Democrats ami near
Democrats. Vinson is a former Hem- j
ocrat, but now fully allied with his '
former political affiliations. Marcum J
is an ex-Demorrat. (Irani Hall is "ox- ,

ant's Demurrer.
.ludge A. (.!. Dayton did not call a]
spade an agricultural implpment from i
the federal bench yesterday whpn he
vent his feelings relative in rocklos-s
driving of automobiles through t ii e
streets, lie declared with oonsider
able emphasis ihat safely of the indiv-,
idual while walking in the streets com
mands 'he respect of other traffic;
that life was the most sacred of all ;
things on earth. The judge furihtr,
said; "II is an unlawful offense to
striko a man unless una voidable, and ;
life i.- more valuable than anything j
else and the government directs tint. :
I he courts follow out this idea. Auto- '
mobilists should bear in mind that
they should watch out for pedestrians
and noi run them down. When a per-!
sun is walking in the streets automo- ,
bilists and operators of any vehicle j
should bear in mind that they are ??n- 1
titled lo the privilege of walking in;
t he. public thoroughfares without be-.'
ing assaulted. Automohilists should ,
also bear in mind that, taking corners '
at speed limit is very dangerous and'
should they run any one down they -
should be held responsible. Under no J
circumstances should they run down ;
an individual unless it is absolutely j
unavoidable."
The Judge delivered the above ulti-l
matum for a case of alleged assault by '
an auto. He was prompted to make j
the declaration in denying a demurrer!
of tho attorneys for Liggett and Mjvrs
Tobacco company, who was sued for
$15,000 personal damage a few months
ago by W. S. Freed of Moundsville,
who alleges that he was struck atl
