The Child Alone.

They say the night has fallen chill,
But know naught Of mist or rain,
Only of two small hands that still
Beat on the darkness all in vain.
They say the wind blows high and wild
Down the long valleys to the sea,
But can only hear the child,
Who weeps in darkness, wanting me.
Beyond the footballs in the street,
Above the voices Of the bay,
hear the sound of little feet,
Two little stumbling feet astray.
Oh, loud the autumn wind makes moan,
The desSiate wind about my door,
And little child goes all alone
Who never was alone before.

A Statement OF Council.
Editor of the Oil Review:

Editor of the Oil Review:
Permit me to present few facts
showing the exact standing of the
town of Sistersville at the present
time. These figures are taken from
the books of Sistersville and the
same information is open to any
taxpayer or citizen of the town.
The total indebtedness OF the town,
including bonds, is $z7,95o.53. The
assets of the town, including S.
15o. 90 now in the sinking fund is
$621o. 79, leaving the net debt OF
the town $2174o.74.
For further enlightenment of the
public we will submit few items
showing how some of the good citi-
zens of the town managed to get
their hands into the public treasury.
Chas. and Joseph Thistle for a piece
of land for right of way for what
is now Burt street $3.50 oo,J.B. Nc
Coy right ofway same street, $4,000
besides exempting both of the above
named parties from paving and
curbing taxation on Burt street.
Lawyers fees in the condemnation
procee dings in obtaining right Of
way Of this street, $325. This be-
came necessary when all communi-
cation with the depot was shut off.
Another item which helped to de-
plete the treasury and pile up So
called debt was Gillespie, Thistle,
Brenneman, ct al, lawyer fees and
expenses, s., 200, in defending suits
against bond issue of $4,000 voted
by the people for the purpose of
building a new city building, NOV
ing water works, etc. The present

for public improvements as follows:
Catharine street sewer. .."$1 ,ooS. 10

a better heart to work for the city S
