We again call attention of the
authorities to the noisy crowd of
white and negro boys that assemble
in the court house yard evory Sun
day, and keep decent people out OF
the grounds by their noisy, profane
and disorderly conduct. They also
climb up into the trees and swing
on the limbs, and if it is not stopped
the trees will all soon be shorn of
their beauty. We intend to ham
mer away at this until an end is put
to such behavior in our public
grounds. 1t is the only park we
have, and people should be allowed
to enjoy its shade and grass without
annoyance from anyone.

With the next issue the REGISTER
commences its thirty-second year,
under our proprietorship. We feel
proud of the record the paper has
made in all the years gone by, and
prOuder still that it has retained
the confidence of the people during
all this time as a reliable Journal,
devoted to the peoples interest
During the coming year, if our pat
ronage will justify the outlay, we
intend to enlarge and otherwise
improve the paper, without increas-
ing the price of subscription, which
wi!l'remain at one dollar a year, if
paid strictly in advance. We ask
our friends to assist US increasing
the circulation of the REGISTER.
Some of the star route mail con-
tractors who for years have been
growing rich of the labor of sub
contractors are coming to grief.
Their OILY means of securing profit
was by swindling the sub-contrac-
tor. The profit when there is any
should go to the man who does the
work. When people learn to refuse
these jobs unless paid for at their
real value, the star reuters will be
out of employment. Nearly all the
routes in this vicinity are sub let
and we do not know of single one
on which the man who does the
work gets over half pay for his
labor.
Every cent we spend with our
own merchants and manufacturers,
must benefit US all directly or indi-
rectIy. The people of the county
ougbt to have pride enough in their
county towns TO spend all their mo-
ney and do all their trading with
them. And some of our enterpri-
sing business men should 90 into
the Wholesale business. A good
wholesale grocery would do much
to draw the trade of the Kanawha
Valley to this place.
