Chicago, Sept. 6.-'No horses in the
world excel The range horses Of our west
ern states for military purposes, and
think that the trip just finished by my
cowboy friends here proves my asser-
tion," said DR.. William A. Bruett, spe-
cial commissioner Of the bureau Of ami
NAL industry Of the department Of agri-
culture, today. He had arrived home
with two young men. William and Bert
Gabriel.
These young men," continued Mr..
Bruett, have just demonstrated that
the bronchos and range horses OF our
plains can cover a distance OF 2.4G0 miles
in ninety days and subsist on grass and
water along the route without grain. and
more important still. from a military
point OF view, without being snod. can
say without fear of contradiction that
no other horses in the world could have
made the trip under these conditions.
The route, beginning at Sheridan. Wyo-
ming, and ending al Galena, Illinois, COW
cred all kinds Of country, turf, sand.
rock. clay and mud. When they entered
the last 100 miles Of the journey the
horses were in as good condition in ev-
cry way as when they started.
One OF the important features Of the
range horse is small. hard hoofs, which
will stand the wear OF paved streets or
rough country. He is more intelligent,
ambitious, tractable and enduring than
those grown by breeders and farmers in
the middle and eastern states In 1898
only 600 horses were sold in Chicago for
export. This year the number will ex-
coed 5000. The French army has taken
great many. We believe that the per-
formance OF the two horses which just
came from Wyoming will influence the
German and English army agents and
exporters for domestic purposes TO try
our western horses"

MIG DEMoCR ,TIo GAIN.
Republican Majority In Congressional
District Reduced From 900 to
S1o

CHICAGO. Nov. 24.-The Demo-
Gratis made big gains to-day in spe-
cial election held in the Sixth con-
gressional district TO elect a candi-
date to succeed Edward d. Cooke,
deceased. The Republicans carried
the district at the last election by
over 5000, and confidently claimed
the election of their candidate ia HE
present fight by majority OF 1900,
but they barely pulled their man
through with only $40 votes mere
than those of the Democratic nomi-
nee. The vote was: Henry S. Bou-
tell, Republican, 10, 204: Vincent H.
Perkins, Democrat, 0.36i; Landgreen,
Populist, 22s: David, Prohibitionist,
1870. The vote in 1896, was: Cooke,
Republican, %, 1913; Martin, Demo-
crat, 10, IA; Mason, Prohibitionist,
269; Zeisler. Populist, 537.
As can be seen from these figures,
the vote to-day was very light. The

GOT FOOLED ONCE MORE.
A Number OF Persons Caught on the
Stove Racket,

During the past summer certain
company sent agents through this
county to sell ranges and cooking
STOVES. The agent was successful in
getting out quite number, aud in
many cases rather pushed the deal on
the buyer, and wherever a purchaser
could not pay, or wanted time, he
was told that he could have all the
time he wanted, no matter If it was
one five or twelve years, but the
agent took notes and they were made
to read as due and payable on the
first day of November, 1897. The
buyer rested easy with the under
standing that he could have his time
10 pay. But this week the collecting
agent got here and he has been max
ing himself heard. He is not only
making himself heard but he is col
lecting all these notes call for, and
there is no mercy being shown. He
tells the signer of the note that he
wants the money and that he means
to get it at once. No time is given,
and If not paid he threatens suit.
The notes are for 500, and the pay
ment of them is greatly discommod-
ing many who are not at this time
prepared TO pay later. As often as
we give notice in these columns to be-
ware of the slick article it seems that
such warning is not needed, but the
side of the stranger is accepted as full
assurance of good faith, Any person
can come to Fairmont and get goods
equal, and in many cases better than
it is possible to buy from these travel
ing agents. Besides, you know that
the home merchant that you deal
with is a responsible man, and can
not afford in any instance or event,
to not be fair and square with every
| individual who deals with him, and
whatever the merchant tells you, he
will make good
The lesson here taught is one of a
hundred wherein the buyer is lead to
believe that he is getting an article
at half the price he could get it from
! his home merchant, when in fact he
pays far more than his home merchant
asks. Let it be the last time you are
fooled in this way, and when you
want to buy anything, consult your
neighbor and friend always-the
home merchant. --Fairmont Free

In the announcement OF the grant

pear to be anything out of the ordi-

was the final chapter in very roman

the burning OF the old Court House,
March g.. 1869. Many OF the older
people well remember that Heron

Gregg was confined in the jail on the

Thanksgiving bay.

OF late years Thanksgiving Day
means no more to many of us than a
family reunion around board lit
orally groaning under its load of roast
turkey, mince pie and other appro-
pirate, If slightly indigestible dain-
ties. But very different was its
Significance in 1921, when GOV. Brad
ford, of the Plymouth Colony, ordered
that a day be set apart for prayer
and thanksgiving to God for the first
harvest of the Pilgrims. As years
went by this harvest of festival was
observed by other New England
colonies, and during the Revolution
airy War was introduced into several
of the Middle states. In 1863 it was
made National holiday. Since this
date the President has issued an an
nual proclamation appointing the
last Thursday in November as
Thanksgiving Day.
Traditions tell us that the Pilgrims,
having no cattle or domestic fowls
to kill, shot the wild turkeys that
were plentiful in the forest and
served them at the feast that graced
their first harvest home. Hence the
origin of the custom that makes the
turkey the piece de resistance of the
Thanksgiving dinner. McCall's Mag

4 BAD COMMUNITY.
,rime Rampant in Doddrige County.

Many of the inhabitants Of the set.
Element known as Robson Fork in
the eastern portion Of the county,
seem to be in a state of revolt. Crime
and pickering and strife are rampant.
In one school sub-district, known as
the Cascara school, two school houses
and two other buildings in which
school was being taught have been
burned to the ground, all of which is
believed to be the work OF an incen-
diary fiend, for whom 800 reward
has been offered by the patrons Of
the school.
A lady teacher in another school
has been indicted for c0habiting with
a married man in the same neigh
borhood, and also, a damage suit is
pending in the same matter and their
transfer of property has been swift in
the extreme.
A notary has been indicted on a
charge of forgery, which was clearly
proven to bea plain case Of spitcwork.
The case was tried in our court here

-aE EASTMAN CASE
viii Come Up FOR Trial In Tucker
County Next Monday.

PARSONS, w. Va, November a3.-
The Circuit Court met here to-day.
As was expected, nothing was done
ia the case Of State VS.. Robt. East
ham, charged with the murder of
Thompson. Counsel for both sides
are here, and there will be about
fifteen attorneys In the case. They
are now arranging the preliminary
details.
The crime of which Eastman Is
charged was committed ON a railroad
train, and was the most sensational
in the history of Tucker county, part
ly on account Of the prominence Of
the parties. The dead man was
leading Republican politician, and
Eastman has been equally conspicuous
on the other side of the politica |
fence. Public opinion is divided,
and as there have been made sensa-
tional developments since the arrest
of Eastman, some trouble Is anticl-
pated in finding a jury.
