Der that we spoke and voted in the re-

less but Rome more. Now we are again

The celebrated election case in
Lewis county has been decided in
favor of Lightburn the Republican
contestant. He is declared elected
by very small majority and as the
result is not at all satisfactory the
matter will be carried to the higher
court. The case has been in the
courts now for several months, and
some very interesting developments
are being made.
AFTER a careful survey of the sit
uation it has been decided by the
Fairmont people not to contest their
recent municipal election but all the
same all is not as calm and serene
as might be imagined by surface in
dications. While there seems to be
good and substantial grounds for a
kick, yet the result of it would not
change the result of the election even
if every point was carried by the
contestants.
The defeated Republican candidate
for Mayor of Charleston set up a howl
of fraud after the municipal election
1t was mutually agreed to have a re-
count in one certain precinct and If
frauds were discovered in that to con-
tinue the contest. The recount was
had and the frauds discovered but the
contest was abandoned. This is not
very strange when it is known that
the shoe was on the other foot. The
democrats gained 20 votes in the pre-
cinct. Not being hoggish the Repub-
lican thereupon quit the fight and his |
opponent was sworn in.
A WIFE will insist that her hus-
band shall not go out of the house
these cold, raw days without two I'M
dershirts, a liver pad and Il muller
on, in addition to his regular clothes
Yet as soon as he is safely down
town she will rush out of the kitch-
en- bare headed and bare armed to
hang up clothes so as to get ahead
of the woman next door, or she will
tramp down town or from house to
house to work up some society or
church enterprise with nothing on
her head but little sauce pan of
hat and shoes not thicker than a
newspaper
If the ordinary resident of Morgan
town don't take tour of the suburbs
every few weeks he will be surprised
when he does go at the extent to
which the town has grown and is ex-
tending. 1t is almost beyond belief
and to3the average inhabitant mat
ter of great satisfaction to see our
town advance so rapidly. The begin
ming of the locks and dams will add |
another impetus to us and it is not
too muchto say that the next ten or Is |
years will see this town a city which |
can justly claim high rank in point of |
size among the other state towns. At |
the present rate of growth fifteen |
years will see a city of from fifteen to
twenty thousand here. Watch and |
see.
