GREAT is the dude and devious
are his wavs. His latest fad is to
wear his waistcoat with the bottom
button left unbuttoned. Why or
wherefore he cannot tell you; he on

consider himself caught in an awful
scrape if he should be seen with that
button buttoned.

SOME things are very much better
put of until to morrow. Among
them are the reprimand you mean to
deliver. the defiance you mean to ex-
press, the resignation you mean to
hand in to a heartless employer Put
off doing these things and you will
probably discover that you don't
have to do them

CHRISTMAS giyers should remem-
Der that Christmas packages are sub
ject to different regulation than those
which govern the transmission of
letters. The lack of sufficient post
age stamps will doom every one not
fully prepaid package to the limbo
of the dead letter office. Even if I'LL
timately rescued, Christmas will have
passed, and the presents become
"baek numbers"

THE proposition to bond the town
of Fairmont for $4,000, for the pur
pose of raising funds to construct
sewerage system, went. But it went
wrong. The people turned the scheme
upside down and killed it. The prev
ious report that all the people in the
state who are eonstitutionally OPP
posed to bonds had settled in Nor
gantown to make progress here a
hollow moekery was wrong, it seems.

The ballot, containing the two
tickets that will be voted for at the
municipal election Jan. 3, is a legal
publication in this week ISSUE For
some reason which is not public in
formation, and probably it is not
material, the ticket of the gentle
men whose slogan is reduced tax

Mr.. Nye's name not being there as a
candidate for Recorder. However,
this does not prevent his many
friends from voting for him, and all
such votes will be counted.

The postal note issue was discon-
tinued by the government some time
ago and the fact mentioned in the
papers, yet many people still apply
for them at the postoffice and seem
surprised when told there are none
to be had now. They never were
much account for transmitting mon
ey as they were handy, but little
safer thun to send the money, as
anyone could get them cashed. The
fee for money orders for small
amounts has been reduced, so that
they only cost the same as postal
notes, three cents for any amount up
to $3.50, and this way is absolutely
safe and the Government guaran-
tees its delivery to the proper per-
son.

A MAN asked the New DOMINION
Monday if the county was or was
not bound to pay the court house
bonds. He was told that there are
no court house bonds. But he said he
saw in this paper last week that there
is still court house indebtedness.
after providing for certain orders to
be paid next May, of $4,000. So he
did, and just so is the condition. Those
orders, however, are not bonds. The
people must decide the question by
vote when bonds are issued. The
people not having authorized the is
suing of bonds to build court house
of course such bonds were not is
sued. 1t was further explained to
this gentleman that the county court
can make a levy for any legitimate
expense which it may estimate as
necessary for the fiscal year sue
ceeding the session at which such
levy is made. There are court house
orders. To pay certain number of
them annually is providing for le-
gitimate expense.
