ANOTHER CHANGE.
The New Postoffice Building
Will be Four Stories.

1t was at first proposed to make it only
three, but the extra room was needed
and up she went another story-Firsi
two stories will be Of stone and the
others of Pressed Brick, Making 1t a
very handsome building-It will be
thirty Feet wide and deep enough to
meet the demands that the future
may have in store for it-Mails taken
in frem the rear and all other trouble
saving deyises will be used. New
Building will have the postofIice i'm il
until the end Of time.
There has been another change in
the new postoffice building. 1t has
been decided to make it four stories
instead of three as was at first pro-
posed. 1t will be the first four story
building in town and will start the
erection Of buildings OF that height
here.
The front will be of stone for two
stories, and after that it will be of
brick, probably of cream color, making
very handsome front--decidely the
finest in town. After the installation
of Uncle Sans Office in this building
it will be certain to stay there for a
long term OF years, and perhaps for
all time. The building will be made
thirty feet wide and it will be ex-
tended to the rear so far that no mat
ter how much space may be needed
they will have it already provided for,
and will use it for the office. 1t will
be in splendid location and there
can be no objection to it on that score.
The weather has delayed operations
on it considerably but it will be ready
on time, unless there are great
many more delays than are at present
expected, and the mails will be dis
tributed from this point after the
first of next July.
The building has not yet been let
TO the contractor but that will be
done before very long. The excava-
ton is very nearly done and If the
rain will hold off for little while
Col. Gilmore will have it all right and
ready for work on the nine foot base
ment.
The mails will be taken into the
building from the rear and that is
the reason there has such an excavation
been made from the rear of the lot
and clear around to Peasants street.
BY this means there will be no trou-
bic in getting the mails in and out of
the office and no bother either to the
patrons of the Office or from them in
handling the mail sacks.
Everything will be up to date in
every particular about the new build
ing and it will be one that the town
can well be proud Of

While he was shooting the old gentle

most, he reappeared with shot gun
and shot at his son, the load taking
effect in the right arm, and the men,

the indications are that the young
man will recover. The Shoots are
farmers and live mile from the
town. The father is so and the son

WANT THE CONVENTION.

Fairmont according to the Expositor
would like to entertain the Republic
cans of this District when they meet.
The Republican congressional con-
vention for this district will most
likely be held some time in June
That matter will be decided at a
meeting of the congressional COM
mittee, of which Hon. Thomas E.
Davis, Of Grafton, is chairman, and
which he will call together in short
time The committee will also fix
the place for holding the convention
and it is to be hoped that the re-
publicans here will present the adj
vantages of Fairmont as a central
point easily reached by the dele
gates from all over the district. The
last convention was held at Morgan
town. and it surely is Fairmont's
turn to capture some of the events
which bring great crowds together
1t is not n bit too early to begin the
agitation if the event is to be secur-
ed for the capital of the district, and
it would be right and appropriate and
convenient to more people if the con
vention were held in this town.

MORONI POULTER.
Chairman Democratic County com.
The above letters were called out by
an article appearing in last evening S
Standard, which charged Superintend-
ent Hall with Offering to sell the norni-
nation to Charles Wright for money
consideration. and suggesting that Mr.
Wilson had re- eived his nomination and
endorsements by such methods. 1t will
be remembered that Superintendent
Hall, in compliance with request
from State Superintendent Park adj
dressed a circular letter to all trustees
of the county, asking them TO call pri-
maries for a citizens convention. to
name the candidate for county super
intendent. This was done. and Mr..
Wilson was the nominee of that con-
vention. He was subsequently endors-
ed by the Republican convention and
county Democratic committee. There
upon the people seemed TO forget all
about it, and but for the stirring up
of the matter, the vote on Monday
would have ben very light.
The polls tomorrow will be open only
four hours, hence a surprise would
have been easy and might have been
successful, had Mr.. Wilson's friends
but taken immediate steps to get out
full vote.
The Standard article was presumably
a criticism of Superintendent Hall, but
MIR. Wilson was implicated.

and that he received no consideration
for the amount of the note.
