Now look over the memorial
Liberal territorial laws and lib
eral franchise are asked. The
Hawaiians who accept the situa
ton as it is, and the Portuguese
request the same thing. The hope
is expressed that the American
laws may be extended to Hawaii
as soon as possible. This is in
keeping with the annexation
spirit. 1t is what Americans have
reason to expect from a country
seeking absorption in the Amer
lean Union. The only organiza-
ton that has spoken against this
policy is the Chamber of Com
merce and it is found that this
body is not unanimous on the
subject. The question of the
is practically
the only diversion made from the
beaten track of memorials. This

A splendid Location for such plant.
Morgantown is to have shoe fac

terested in the project do not fall
through. There is every indication
that they will not and another in
dustry will be added to those of
which we are so proud now and
which add so much to the growth of
our town. Should everything work
out as it is hoped the new factory
will very shortly be under way and
before the middle of summer will be
turning out shoes.
Those who are most interested in
the new venture are Charles Wade,
of Frostburg, Charles Newall, of
Pittsburg, and Will Wilmington, of
Morgantown 1t is probable that a
joint stock company will be organ
lied and great many people will be
allowed to take stock IN the concern
although this plan may not be fol-
lowed.
The factory will employ about 25
men to start on and if the business
warrants it, IL will be gradually in
creased to as many as may be need
ed Medium grade shoes will be
manufactured and the promoters
think that there will be no trouble
in finding a market for all their
product. There is not another fac
tory of the kind in the state and the
work can be done as well and as
cheaply here as any town in the
country. Freights can be obtained
from here as low as from any Other
place and the territory which can be
reached from here will take a great
many shoes.
The b. and |. company will give
the plant a free site and they proba-
bly, viii soon begin the erection of
their plant. The plant will not cost
very much and the machinery is not
very expensive and the promoters
feel like trying it for while under
the circumstances. Mr.. Wade is
now in the east investigating the
matter and if he thinks that it will
prove a success the plant will be
started. Work may begin by the
lst of April. 1t will be located On
Beechurst.

II will be just Lovely

Nobody knows, who has not seen
it, what transformation paved
streets make in a town.
1t can hardly be explained, but it
gives it an entirely dsfierent ap-
pearance. The observer who sees
the change for the first time is apt
to think that he has made a mistake
and got into the wrong town.
When all the bumps are leveled
down, the grades all made harmo-
Mons, and a perfectly even and
smooth surface presents itself to the
eye, it gives the impression of rad
ical change. as if the buildings had
all been improved and everything
else had undergone reyolution-it
is so neat and city like.
A few years ago the town of
Moundsville had the ugliest streets
in this State. 1t looked like big
town that had been deserted. Then
a boom suddenly struck it and they
paved their streets. The visitor
who had known Moundsville before
the paving, was dumbfounded when
he saw it afterward. He would hard
ly be convinced that the whole town
had not been suddenly rebuilt by
magic.
From the raggedest looking town
in the state it became one of the
prettiest.
Now when these mortar beds of
ours, which we call streets, are har-
moniously graded and given an even
surface of brick, not only the streets
will be improved, but every build
ing will be enhanced 25 per cent in
appearance, and the whole town will
take on an appearance that will as
tonish everybody who sees it
Yes, we have the best town in the
state now, but when we get the
streets paved oh, MY
One week from to-day we will all
go the polls and pave her
We will!
And when the voters have done
their part of the paving we want the
Town Council to get double-quick
move on.
We do!

John G. Barrackman, OF Clay dis
trict has assigned. He was q deputy
sheriff under S. W. Hare and is very
well known in the county. He is a
very popular man and his friends are
very sorry to learn of his misfortune.
The assets are, after preferred cred

what the liabilities are. Frank Cox
and A. Garrison are named as as
signess and trustees. The assign
ment was made Saturday.
1t has been known for some time
that he was in shaky condition. The
cause for the failure was too much
leniency in collection and too great
looseness in business all round. He
was too good to people who owed him
money. Among the assets assigned
are several thousands of dollars of
taxes in his district. These viii be
collected as the legislature extended
the time in which this can be done.
With these taxes collected the assets
will be about So, 500 or 50, 600 and the
liabilities are about 81, 900.
The Bank of the Monongahela VAL
ley is the heaviest creditor, but this
amount, 5,720, is secured by deed
of trust on his property made at the
time the money was borrowed. This
makes the bank preferred creditor,
and secures them for every cent they

ON WHEELS.
The Chainless Bicycle Isn't Such a
Winner, and the scorcher Is Being
Eliminated.

The opening of the bicycle season
furnishes no evidence of any decline
in the popular pastime which many
have seen fit to characterize as the
wheeling craze" On the contrary,
there are signs that the wheel has
permanently established its status as
vehicle of utility as well as an
eyangel of good health and sobriety.
1t is very evident at least that the
predictions of those who have MAIN
tanned that the popularity of the
wheel is evanescent and that the
wheeling pastime possesses no ele-
ments of permanency are not to be
fulfilled this year. Reports from the
factories indicate that the output for
the year will be larger than ever, and
an inspection of the '9S models dis
closes the attainment of a mechani-
cal perfection that is equaled no.
where in the world in the field of
bicycle construction.
The experiment of the chainless
bicycle, which will be tried for the
first time, will be watched with a
great deal of interest. There is no
concealment of the fact that practical
wheelmen do not look with much ia
vor upon the chainless wheel. The
bicycle appears to be device for
which the sprocket chain is peculiarly
adopted. The gearing of chainless
wheel possesses high degree Of rig
idity, with a chain has ductility, or
tensile strength, which is an essen
tial in such vehicle as the bicycle.
The '9S bicycles also show a pleas
ing disregard for the demands of the
scorcher and the racer. Special wheels
are made, it is true, for this class of
wheelmen, but the regular '9S pattern
is model of sensible and durable con-
struction. Strength is not sacrificed
for lightness and speed. Safety is the
prime requisite. In short, bicycle
construction has reached that point
where the only wheel it pays to man.
ufacture nowsdays is well-built,
common sense vehicle, adapted to the
permanent everyday uses of man.

TROUBLE AHEAD.
People who use the Durbannah
Bridge Don't want it torn
down.

Until there is some way for them to get
across arranged for--im0unt Of traY.
ell oyer the Structure Under estimated
"A Count made for five hours shows
how great ii is and Inconvenience that
will be cansed unless there is some
way fixed for the traffic People don't
want TO go very far around Court
will have trouble some Of them say II
the way is not fixed. An injunction
is talked of to restrain the Destruc-
tion of the Bridge.
The people who use the Durham
nah bridge which is being torn
down are considerably excited over
the matter. They think that the
structure should not be torn down
without some way being fixed for
them to cross the creek. The bridge
will have to be down for considera-
BILE length Of time and they want to
see some way fixed for them to get
across while it is down before it is
torn down.
The month of April is usually a
very wet one and the water will in
terfere with the work to very great
degree if the month keeps up its u.s.
ual record for rain. So that it is the
worst time in the year to have the
bridge torn down and the work will
take longer if begun at this time
than any other. They want it to
begin at once however so that the
new bridge can be in place at the
earliest possible moment. But they
want to hay some way made for
them to get across while the work is
being done They don't think that
they should be put to the inconven-
fence that they will necessarily be
put to if no way is fixed.
The people who are making the
kick say the county court and those
who are having the work done do
not realize the amount of travel that
goes over the bridge. A man made
count of what went over from sew
en- o'clock until twelve thirty and
the total is a very large one. There
were fourteen four horse teams,
one three horse, twenty eight two
horse and ninety one horse teams,
making total of 206 horses to
cross. These were accompanied by
one hundred and thirty mine drivers
and during the same time 3S1 foot
passengers crossed the bridge. This
gives a total Of people using it of
5l5. Taking this as a basis it shown
that not less than a thousand people
cross the bridge every day and they
are accompanied by nearly 800
horses Some provision sho uld be
made to accommodate this vast
amount of traffic. A pontoon bridge
as has been suggested would be a
go d idea. 1t is cheap and would
answer every purpose. But no mat
ter what means are used something
should be done. The interests of
the people demand it.
