Here IL an editorial from The
Wayne Ncacs whose editor. Hon.
w. l.. Mansfield, was momber Of
the last Legislature and knows
what ne is talking about:
The people OF West Virginia
should not lose sight OF the i'm
portant fact thut the late Repub-
lican Legislature repealed tho law
imposing a tax on the sale Of cigar.
cites. They should also bear i'm
mind that this tax was repealed to
carry out pledge made by The
leaders Of the Republican party to
the tobacco trust, IA a considera-
ton for a large contribution TO
the Republican campaign fund to
corrupt the ballot in this State at
the last election. Furthermore the
repeal of this tax was secured by
misrepresentation 1t was stated
on the floor at the time the bill
was being considered, that it only
sought TO make the law conform
/ w ~ lhbt htCioiOu VI VIC COul 10
which had declared the exciting
law unconstitutional. This was a
baldfaced misrepresentation. No
such decision had been rendered.
The Federal courts had ouly inval-
ldated the law in so far us it af-
feeted the taxing of Gig ,rett Is
brought into the state in the orig
incl package aud sold. In order
to secure contribution to its COR
ruption fund, the Republican lead l.
ers repealed one Of the best laws
on our statue books. Not only
is the State deprived of considera-
bic taxes by it's repeal, but all the
restriction is removed from one Of
the most pernicous articles that
| could be put on the market.

BIG CANE OF BASE BALI.
The kingWOOd Club Redeems Itself
aud Beats Oakland Badly.

Last Saturday our boys played
great game Of ball over at Oakland
and covered themselves with glory.
The boys were in good shape that
day and could have beaten any az
greg,tiou in this section. Oakland
had tried to load mp for US aud had
some star players, among them a
pitcher from John Hopkins Uni
vcrsi,y Of Baltimore, with a John
Hopkins suit on, but it made no
difference, and our boys batted the
ball anywhere they pleased and
knocked it clear ous in the woods
several times, and Grant Bower
and Will ShalTer both made home
runs OF hard hitting, and Shaifer
went TO third on another big lick,
and could have made home run,
only the ball struck a tree aud
stopped it from going out IN the
country OH a vacation.
The game was called about three
o'clock, with Kingwood at the bat,
and W. j.. CIapp and O. j. Rtth
burn as umpires. Our boys started
off by scoring four runs in first
inning, three IN second and two in
third, then six in the fourth and
and three in the fifth. BY this

land, they quit trying to score and
went cut the next two times with.
out an effort. In the eighth they
scored a couple of times, because
they couldn't help it, and then
swore of entirely and went out
purposely IN the last inning.

FIDDLING AWAYTIMEAND NONE

There was quite an interesting
law suit before Justice Flynn here
last Saturday, in which a historical
old violin played prominent part.
1t used to belong to Gen. Geo. w.
Fairfax and had been in the family
for hundred years, it is said, and
came from Germany. 1t had the
letters ''Hopf" on it, evidently the
makers name. After Gen. Fair.
fax's death it was sold at his sale
for n trihe, and was bid in by Wal
ter linn, son of Mike linn, Of
near Reedsvllle. Some time since
he took it to Jesse Burke, who
lives out on Three Fork, to get 1T
fixed, and Ellis Mitchell, an old
bachelor who lives with George w.
linn, was there and saw it and
recognized it, and claimed that
Gen. Fairfax gave him the fiddle,
and wanted it. Burke was sick in
bed and his wife refused to give it
up, but Mitchell grabbed it and got
away with it. When Znn heard
about it he came here and sued for
the recovery Of the instrument.
Constable q. w. Fawcett was sent
after it, but failed to find it, as it
was hid over at old Johnny Sny-
der's. The Justice then gave judg.
meat for $50 and costs and issued
an execution on Mitchell's riding
horse, and was going to sell it,
when he sent the fiddle into Court
by Geo. w. Zlnn and agreed to pay
all the costs. Znn identified the
violin and is very proud to get it
back, and says he would not take a
hundred dollars for it. Brown g.
Hyde were his attorneys.
