been seen about town once or twice before

THE WORLD would like to sec a
spirit Of Improvement abroad in Mar
tinsburg. We have grown little since
the war, II Is true, but It was a neces-
sary growth. AS the population
increased new houses and schools and
extention Of city limits were a neces-
sity. Outside Of this Martinsburg is
the same II was thirty years ago.
Next week we want to see good
democratic men elected to the city
eouncil-men who will not only be
councilmen but hrely councilmen.
THE WORLD believes in progress, it is
IN enemy Of stagnation. In its early
days Martinsburg was called the town
Of "sweet idlenessr-we don't want to
deserve that hattering appellation at
this day. The conditions Of life all
over the world are growing harder
every year. No man can afford to
stand still while the march Of progress
sweeps by him and onward we
want little Of that march right here
in Martinsburg, in the administration
Of our city affaiis
First and foremost we want that
town clock. We want to see the city
market improved. We want the public
square made an attractive place in
stead Of the barren waste it is at pres
emit We want new sidewalks made
where they are needed We want
but this is a want that Uncle Sam
must attend tov-free mail delivery.
We want public library, attractive
rooms and good reading for the sake
Of the youth Of the city. One and all
Of these wants will take time and
patient labor for their accomplishment
but mono of them are beyond the
range Of possibility, THE WORLD win
do all in its power to further any one
Of them or anything else conducive
