The local football enthusiasts are
trying to get up football team to
go to Wheeling to play the team at
that place on Thanksgiving. They
are now in correspondence with the
manager of that team who is Mr..
John Wallace relative to game
there. The Wheeling people think
that our request for two hundred

of so per cent of the gate money is
two high and they have made an offer
which is very much below that fig
ure. The game may not be ar
ranged in consequence of the fail

approximate forty and the team will
be given the hardest kind of work to
get them into the best of shape for

more games on the schedule and sew

full OF confidence that they will have
a good team during the rest of the

ONLY ONE ROUTE.
Rural Delivery Will be Started
with One Carrier Only.
Route on. This Side of the River is
Abandoned-Not Enough People to
Make it Go-R0ute ON the West Side
Laid Of-Carrier Appointed but
Name Not yet Announced.

Aaiu Vu-NAIIktE ADpOkHteU Uut
Name Not yet Announced.
The matter of rural delivery has
been apparently hanging fire for some
time but while there has been Moth
ing on the surface there has been
some thing going on all the time
The matter has been receiving atten-
tion from the department and before
very long it will be established here.
Mr.. Smith has been unavoidably
detained by press of business elsewhere
but the thing has been looked after
from this end of the line and proba-
bly, as great progress as possible has
been made.
The determination has been made
to have only one carrier. 1t was at
first thought that two would be put
on but the route proposed on this side
Of the river could not afford enough
people to make it go. The rules
require that at least one hundred
families be served by the carriers.
There was not over eighty to be found
on any route that could be laid off on
this side. This of course knocked it
out.
The carrier for the West Side has
been appointed but the name has not
yet been announced for fear of some
hitch occurring. However it is not
probable that any will take place.
The service may be expected to be
started before very long.
The route on the West Side will in
clude free delivery to the people liv-
ing just over the river and the carrier
will collect the mail on his return in
the afternoon. The people of Belle
view will get advantages that the
town people on this side will not have
until the first of April when we get
free delivery from the postoffice in
town. The route goes out the Fair
mont pike to Barker's and then down
towards Flickersville and back by
way Of the river road to town making
about eighteen miles in the circuit.
This will be covered once day by the
carrier.

IMPORTANT EVENTS.
Grand Lodges of the A. f. Il A. M.
1. o. o. F. Of West Virginia Meet
Soon. Nov. Is.

The events occur this week, that
are of more than passing interest to
those concerned One of the annu-
al meetings of the grand lodge OF
West Virginia, a. F. & A. NJ, at
Martinsburg on the 10Th; the other
is the annual convention of the
grand lodge of the /. o.. O. F. at
Huntington on the same day.
The meeting of Masons will be at
tended by hundreds of the fraternity
from all quarters of West Virginia.
In speaking of the event, a promi-
nent Mason, stated yesterday that
an interesting feature to Masons
would be the exhibition of the his
torical apron presented to. George
Washington by Gen. Lafayette and
worn by the father of his country
when he officiated at the laying of
the corner stone of the national cap
itol. The apron which is preserved
in a glass protected case has been
secured by the West Virginia grand
lodge for it's coming meeting. The
relic has not been seen by many of
the West Virginia Masons and no
doubt it will attract close interest.
The meeting of the grand lodge at
Huntington will be the occasion of
an immense gathering of the order
from this State. The third city will
be enfete in honor Of its visitors.
The citizens of Huntington are busy
arranging for the big assemblage of
of the three-link fraternity.

Desparad0es Enter His Home at Cheat
Haven And Demand Money ut The
Point OF pistol-Thought They
Would Get The Money For the Coal
Recently Sold by Mr.. Conn-Thieves
Still at Large.
Southern Fayette county for the
past few weeks has been suffering
from an epidemic of crime. Numer-
Gus and bold robberies have been
taking place in that section. Nor
ris Cross Roads, Cans and other
small points have been visited by the
thieves who have apparently become
more and more bold under the inn
munitv that they have been enjoy
ing. The latest outbreak is the
worst of the lot. A special from
Morris Cross Roads has the follow
ing to say about most daring rob
berry at Cheat Haven on Saturday
night:
Several desperate characters broke
into the residence of Mr. and Mrs.
Isaac p. Conn, at Cheat Haven on
Saturday night. The inmates were
surprised before they could make
any resistance.
The robbers with drawn revolvers
held up the members of the house
hold and demanded money Mr..
Conn was asked for the money that
he had recently received from the
sale of his coal lands and which was
supposed to have been in the house.
He informed them that he had
nothing as the money was not there
it not having been paid over vet.
The robbers then bound him and
his wife together with young man
who was staying with them to the
bed and the house was searched by
the robbers.
The search revealed the hiding
places of about 5000 in money and
notes and some ewelrv. This was
taken by the thieves who then LETT
the premises leaving their victims
bound and gagged and almost
frightened to death
No arrests have as yet been made
and the thieves are still at large.
Urgent efforts will be made by the
officers to run them down or reign Of
terror in this part of Fayette will
ensue.
Hon. S. Stentz, county auditor,
was given quite asurprise on Thurs
day evening by the Humbert brass
band and the Springhill martial
band on account of his victory in
the election. Mr.. and Mrs. Stentz
had retired but the cheering soon
brought them out with their twin
babies in their arms. After congrat-
ulations and music the crowd was
invited into the house and treated
to cake and fruit.
Isaac Yoke. of Monongahela City,
who had the contract for remodel
ing the old buildings and erecting
some new ones on the historic old
homestead at Friendship Hill for the

1t is up to Morgantown. We have
one week in which to say what we
will do in regards to the new glass
factory and if we accept the situa-
ton making the proper sort of an
offer for it we will get it. Otherwise
we will not get anything but the go
by.
A meeting OF the new stockhold.
ers of the new company was held on
Saturday night ard otfieers elected
but the names will not be given out
this week on account of the rush
that would come to carry the factory
to some other town that is wide
awake to the advantages that are
offered by the location of such an
industry.
The offers from other towns were
read to the meeting. There were
number ranging from ten to TWEEN
ty thousand dollars together with
free site and other advantages.
The other towns that are after the
plum are fully determined to get it
if the coin will do the work and they
will do everything possible to take
it from Morgantown.
The incorporators want to locate
it here. They will do everything
thay can to make it come here. In
order to forward this they will hold
open the question of location until
next Saturday night when they will
decide what they will do. Ii Nor
gantown comes up as she should
do this week the factory will be
built here. II the town does not do
this It will see the factory go TO
some other town where it is better
realized what it means to have such
an industry.
The factory will be in operation
by the first OF March with one hun
dred and fifty hands and a guarantee
of having three to four hundred
within year f the glass business
holds up as it is expected. The
pay roll will be larger than Seneca
and we all know what that means
to the town and surrounding coun-
try. One hundred Thousand dollars
and over will be thrown into circula-
ton here every year. This can be
secured by bonus of ten thousand
dollars.
The payment can be made in
three payments. One of these when
the factory starts up and the others
in six and twelve months from that
date. Thus we lose nothing if the
stockholders fail to get the plant to
running and there is no chance Of
that.
II is all in our hands. FIVE want
the plant we can get it and get it at
less effort than any other town.
What will you do about it?

MINORITY MISTAKES.

Perry Belmont was once a Democrat.
He still believes in many Democratic
principles. But his conduct after the
Chicago convention demonstrated that
his Democracy was only skin deep. Not
merely because he refused to endorse a
bimetallic platform, but when free coin
age was made the paramount issue of
the campaign and a presidential ticket
was nominated by that convention, Mr..
Belmont and his fellow clubmen re
fused to recognize the rights and dele
gated powers of an unquestioned ma
jority.
So the Belmont minority opposed the
majority and fought it until the last
ballot was cast in November, 1896. The
boilers based their opposition on the
assertion that the minority in that con-
vention represented the majority of the
masses, and they had the egotism and
effrontery to claim that they, the mem
bers of a small minority, knew the peo-
pie better than majority of chosen
representatives knew them. Election
day proved their error.
Bryan received G, 81, OTS of the popular
vote, while the candidate of the minor
ity faction, Palmer, received but 1885,
S00
Minorities which claim to know more
about the wishes of the people than
majorities do, generally receive just
such a shock.

WELLS AND THE SALT PALACE

While Governor Wells is technically
right in veteing the Salt Palace item
in the general appropriation bill, he is
mistaken in the assumption that the
purpose of the constitution was to pre-
vent the state from advertising its re-
sources in any manner calculated to
bring about public and general ben
eft.
The constitutional provision cited by
the governor was designed to prevent
subsidies being granted by state legis-
latures to private enterprises estab-
lshed and maintained as business in
stitutions.
To assume that the Salt Palace
project comes under this head is an in
Justice to the public-spirited citizens
who encouraged and supported it. They
never expected to make a cent out of
it. Some of them hoped to get a por-
ton of their money back, but lio one
looked for profit.
II the governor knows the men, if he
senses the undertaking, if he realizes
the difficulties in the way of such an
exposition, he knows that he does the
men behind the Salt Palace movement
an injustice when he says it is clear
that the association in charge thereof
expects to derive a profit therefrom-
an enterprise for private gain and Of a
private character
The state has right to donate pub
lie moneys to be expended on EXPOSE
lions at Omaha or at Nashville. and
these might as well be private enter
prises so far as the state Of Utah is

and let us see if there is anything in
the antitrust law
WASHINGTON LAWYERS.


All sorts Of claims are being filed in
the state department at Washington.
Some are meritorious. most of them
are not. BY way of illustration, one
Thomas e. Dawley asks for 100000 for
arrest and Imprisonment in Cuba sew
eral years before the war between the
United States and Spain. He went to
Cuba as correspondent, doubtless al
lowed his newspaper enterprise to carry
him into danger, and was locked UP
for some time.
Another newspaper correspondent,
w. w. Gay, claims $4,000 as a recon-
pense for the indignity he suffered by
being expelled from the island by order
of the Spanish authorities in 1895. John
A. Sewers wants 100000 for arrest,
Imprisonment and expulsion" And SO
on.
The terms of the peace treaty gave
rise to many fond hopes in the hearts
of unfortunate adventures who were
either guilty or suspected of filibuster-
ing in the days of the insurrection. One
provision of the Paris treaty is that
each nation shall assume the liability
for claims for property destroyed and
for injuries sustained by its citizens.
1t is liable to develop a long-standing
contention like that over the French
spoliation claims. Our government, by
these terms, is chargeable with all the
damages sustained by American citi-
zens whose property was destroyed in
Cuba by either the insurgents or the
Spaniards
Those already filed amount to S29,-
100000, and they haven't all heard of it
yet. either.
1t means rich harvest for the Wash
ington attorneys, one of whom is said
to have made a quarter of million
dollars last year on the collection of
claims against the government alone.
1t is estimated that the lawyers will
get at least $1s000,000 out of the $780,
coo carried in an appropriation bill ap-
proved March 5, for the payment of
At the same ratio there will be some
thing like $9,000,000 divided among the
lawyers of the national capital, pro-
vided all the Cuban claims are al
lowed.
Washington ought to be a good Geld
for lawyers with a gift for lobbying
claims through committees and special
acts through congress.
