Whipped His Teacher at Last.

About 16 years ago a man named
Burchinal taught school in Redstone
township, near Brownsville, and for
a trifling offense severely whipped
Thomas Rodaback, then about 10
years of age. Burchinal was prose-
cuted and paid the costs and fine.
Young Rodaback vowed that, when
he grew to be man he would lick
that teacher. A few days ago a man
travelling through that section knock
ed at door and was hidden by Mrs.
Rhodaback to come IN. Thomas
Rhodaback, now a powerful man,
was sitting in the house, and, recog-
nizing his old teacher, he sprang at
him, kicked him out of the house
and gave him the long ago promised
thrashing. He paid the fine and costs

The Last Legislature nade a ~
vanced step towards securing Tor the
State well equipped ard armed
militia. The bill Il not perfect but
IL is better than was generally sup
posed would be enacted, and the pas
sage is entirely due to the untiring
aud mastery efforts Of Major j. c.
Gluck. delegate from Richie county.
The new law provides for the com
pIete enrolment of the militia Of the
State by the assessors in each coun-
ty, and infiicts heavy penalties for
any neglect Of duty. 1t provides
for two enrollments of volunteer mi
tia, to be known as the West Vir-
GINA National Guards, to consist of
not more than ten companies each,
which are to be armed and uniform
ed by the State, and each company
is to be provided with an armory at
the expense Of the State. 1t pro-
vides for stated company drills and
for State encampment of six sue
cessive days at place selected by
the Commandeyin chief, the ex-
penses Of which are to be paid by the
State. The election Of officers of the
National Guards is the same as at
present. The Governor appoints a
General, who selects his staff. We
think the law is lacking in one re-
spect, namely, it makes no disposi-
ton of the two regiments that are
now regularly enlisted into the State
service. Whether it is intended to
have the regiments continue in the
service or disband them, is not clear.
The law upon the whole is good one,
and will greatly increase the military
spirit in the Stakeholder.

The above is the portrait of Mr..
Joe r. Miller, who is identified with
the basin SIS interests of Morgan
town to no little extent. He has
lately passed the 2Sth milestone Of
his life, and for SO young man his
success in the cigar and tobacco bus
mess has been noteworthy; indeed
we might add remarkable. His
genuine worth as citizen has made
him popular with all classes and he
has ingratiated himself into the best
society of our place.
Mr.. Miller came to this place
three years ago from Washington,
Pa, and at once engaged in the man.
ufacture of cigars, connected with
his establishment running retail
cigar, tobacco, snuff, cigarette, smok-
ers supplies, DC, store. His start
here was modest one, as he at that
time made his own cigars and only
employed an apprentice. From this
small beginning it only will take a
glance into his place of business at
the Morris store room, corner Main
and Walnut streets, to see how his
business has grown. He was dis
couraged slightly when opening at
that corner, as it had long been noted
as place where prosperity kept as
far as possible from.
Gratifying to Mr.. Miller is the
fact that he has made the place one
of the best patronized in town and
his business booms and booms. Old
residents guessed that in three
months after starting be would pack
up and leave, and thought that no
money was to be made in that bust
ness in this town, but he has been
here for over three years and en-
ploys IL hands to manufacture his
different brands Of cigars, which he
ships in large consignments every
day and does flourishing retail
business besides, and is at the front
and happy over his abundant sue
cess in business. For the year 1889
he proposes to manufacture over L.
100000 cigars. We rejoice over
Soaps" success, wish it to conttn-
ue and hope that for all time he will
remain with us as an illustrious ex-
ample of what thrift, energy and in
dustry can do.

A second corps of engineers was

up the West Fork river yesterday
morning, This is surveying the

having commenced on the east side

across the West Fork river at Vel
low Rock ford, about two miles and

Hustlers.

The number of true bills of indict-
ment brought in against parties COM
hitting misdemeanors in this county
at the last session of the circuit
court was in excess of those of any
court ever held here. A prosecuting
attorney of Monongalia county never
was known to have as many indict-
ments against offenders sustained.
Does not such condition of affairs
speak well for the young firm of Cox
d Baker who prosecuted the parties
and brought about this great num-
Der of offenders to trial before the
court? 1t certainly does, and in
most glowing terms. AS efficient
prosecutors all will bear witness that
their equals have not yet been in Office
and it is with a feeling of pride that
we point to them as young men who
have endeared themselves in the
hearts of all law loving citizens.
Cox q Baker are the right men in
the right place.

what win the Harvest Bet

For many days the average Nor
gantowner has been revolving in his
mind the uncertain question as te
whether or not the County Court will
grant license to liquor dealers to sell
their wares in this county. There
has been quite decided temperance
move made by who are oppos
ed to the liquor traffic, and on Mon
day the MEMBERS ofthe w. G. L. u
appeared before the court and present
ed a petition signed by $50 Of our cit
liens protesting against granting IL
cense
Those favoring the court giving
legal right to persons selling liquor
are not SO publicly demonstrative
but have been doing some quiet
work that may prove very effective.
It's a great fight, such as was never
before known here, and much specu-
lation is INDUCED in as to the re-
suit
However, the court will not ballot
on the matter until this (Wednes-
day J afternoon, and tonight we will
all know whether or not licensed Ii
quor places will be in vogue for the
the next year. A. W. Brown, Presi-
dent of the court, is against license
tooth and toe nail, E. w. Brand is in
favor of license, and the whole mat
ter now hinges on M. c. Courtney,
who has not as yet vouched an opin-
ion on the matter. The ballot takes
place this afternoon and the way
Courtney votes settles the whole
business.

THE AGRICULTURAL INTERESTS


To the Editor of the New DoMISrsS.
Among the public men of the
State taking an interest in its ma
terial development and prosperity
none have manifested more earnest
desire to advance the success of the
Agricultural Experiment Station
than Senator c. j. Faulkner. The
Station has recently received for its
library several valuable publica-
tions from him, and several private
letters written by him to prominent
citizens of the State have been shown
to the Director, indicating his deter
mination to contribute as largely as
possible to the agricultural interests
of the State by urging such meas
ures in the U. S. Senate as promise
to assist in our advancement.
He has placed the Experiment
Station under obligations to him for
his kindness, and we trust that the
farmers of the State will recognize
in him one Of their staunch friends.
