this year in the following States:
Iowa For Governor and other
State officers.
Kentucky-For Governor and other
State officers.
Maryland--Fo Governor and both
Houses of the Legislature.
Massachusetts - For Governor,
State officers and both Houses of the
Legislature.

GERS.
Pennsylvania-State treasurer, two
judges of the Supreme Court and one
Judge of the Superior Court.
Notwithstanding of the common
wealth, treasurer and minor State
officers.
While these elections occur in only
one quarter of the States, they are SO
scat as to afford fair test of
public opinion in nearly every quarter
of the Union.
The campaign in Ohio and Nebras-
ka are likely to attract the most at
tention. as the former is the home OF
President Mckinley and the latter of
Mr. Byran. There are already indi-
cations of hot contest in both States.
The Democrats take some hope from
the Republican dissensions in Ohio
and from the recent elections in Cleve-
land and Toledo. The Republicans
and the Democratic opponents of Mr..
Bryan will try to Judge his prestige
by defeating him at home.
At the last election seven of the
States voting this year were carried by
the Republicans and four by the Dem
ocrats.

THE OLD STAND
Has not Yet Been Beaten-Skinner's
Tavern Still i'm the Lead.

The hold that SINNERS Tavern has
on the public is a subject of remark
everywhere not only among those who
travel but people generally. The pop
ularity of the house has grown with
the growth of Fairmont and its bust
ness has increased accordingly. The
place has always had managers of tact
who had a keen knowledge of men
and who knew how TO make the house
attractive and its guests feel at home.
This is attested by the fact that With
in the past year or two considerable
additions have been built to meet the
demands of its patrons. The present
owner Mr.. Williams is not only very
widely known and very popular but
has been fortunate in the selection OF
his assistants The chief clerk Mr..
Robb is an experienced hotel man
known far and near and has the pecu-
liar knack of doing just what pleases
you at the right time and the night
clerk is.Yery much the same way The
dining ro0m-a very important part
of hotels everything that could
be wished and the service is superb.
The Tavern well merits is prosperity
and promises to continue it.

Vast Profits In Standard Oil.

According TO the Standard Oil
company's sworn statement In the
hands Of the attorney general of Ohio,
barrel Of refined oil costs that con-
Germ just 20 cents, or two-tifths OF a
cent a gallon. In that cost is included
raw material, treatment and the ex-
pense OF refining the oil. From this
it would appear that some one is
making an outrageous profit by charg-
the consumer IL cents gallon for an
article which costs but two-ffths Of
cent to the manufacturer. With
each gallon the consumer pays for
the manufacturing of barrel. The
oil could be produced and delivered at
2 cents gallon in any part OF the
United States, and II sold at five cents
a gallon would bring an immense
profit. Denver Post.

ELECTED SUPERINTENDENT.
Prof. j. l.. Henderson is Now Superin-
tendent OF the City Schools of
TYLER Texas.

A recent issue of the Tyler, Texas,
Courier has the following to say of
the election of Prof. j. L. Henderson
to the SUPPLEMENTARY OF the city
schools of that place. He is gradu-
ate of the University and was married
to Miss Dorsey a daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. w. HI. Dorsey formerly of this
place. We are glad to learn of his
success in his new field. The article
in question is as follows:
It may be of interest to patrons OF
the public school to know something
of the work of Prof. J. L. Henderson,
the newly elected superintendent OF
the city schools.
Prof. Henderson came TO Tyler five
years ago and accepted position as
teacher in the 9th grade. AT the end
of the first year, Prof. Henderson was
elected principal of the North side
school. He held this position for
three years when he was selected as
principal OF the Tyler High school,
which position he now holds.
Prof. Henderson's duties as super
intendent Of the city schools will be-
gin with the fall term.
Prof Henderson and his interesting
wife have made many friends in Tyler
who are glad to know that they will
still be citizens Of our city.
The Courier believes that the gen.
tleman has bright future. He is a
close student and persistent worker,
and will some day take rank with the
highest educators of the Lone Star
state.

The Advertisers Opportunity

Opportnnism in political life is ad-
mitted to be legitimate accessory of
party control, and it would seem not
unwise for man in public life TO
take advantage Of favorable occasions
to improve his chances for success II
he be not compelled to act against the
dictates Of his conscience. The same
may justly be said of the merchant,
with the difference that he may be an
opportunist at all times without in
curing odium. In fact, it must be
the steadfast purpose of the business
man to constantly look for promising
occasions. He should note what the
public wants, and, having perceived
the opportune period, he should pre-
pare to supply the particular demand.
1t is then that the boundless influence
OF advertising comes into play.

Raising the Standard.

The spring examinations for admis-
sion to the bar have been in progress
for week at Morgantown. There
were ten applicants for license to
practice, and of these only four were
issued license. Since the law faculty
of the university was made the exam
lining board by the supreme court it
has been difficult to be admitted, and
more applicants have failed than have
succeeded. Because of this there is
much complaint, but the bar associa-
tion heartily end )rses the action, and
says it has already appreciably raised
the standard of the profession. Sis

He Expressed Her Feelings.
Grafton Sentinel.

Prof. Robt. A. Armstrong in his
address to the class OF graduates here,
Monday evening, told pretty good
story. He said that just as good
little christian woman, who was at
tending the Mountain Chatauqua,
reached the platform at Mt. Lake
Park one day last summer, the train
she desired to take pulled out from
the station and left her behind
Just ahead of her was drummer who
had been doing the stores at the sum-
mer resort and was ready and anxious
to leave alse,, but he was just toe late
To do so. When the drummer realized
the situation he let out string Of
oaths that made the air fairly blue
and was strong enough to stop clock,
let alone train, but the cars contin-
ued to vanish in the distance. The
good little women knew she ought to
reprove him, felt that it was her
christian duty to rebuke his awful
profanity and stepped forward to do
so, but just as she reached his side
she caught another glimpse of the
fast receding train and of her heavy
satchel, and la the intensity of her
feelings instead OF rebuking the drum
mer, who was still making the atmos-
phere lurid with his language, the
little lady simply said, "Thank you,
sir, y and walked away.

CHANCES ARE BRIGHTER.
Mr.. Martin Thinks That Valley
Will be all Right This
Time

Proposition is Again Before the Voters
Over There-Connty Court of Preston
Receives Petition From People who
Opposed the Railr0ad--Every one in
Favor of the Road Will be Out the
Next Time.
Mr.. j. A. Martin came in from
Kingwood long enough to tell us
how things were moving over there
and then he returned to that place
for another brief stay before he went
to Pittsburg on business connected
with the railroad. He is very much
pleased over the outlook at present
and states that he has no fears that
everything will come out right.
The county court of Preston held
a meeting on Saturday and passed
another order calling for another
election to be held on June seven
teenth to pass on the bond PROPOSE
ton again in Valley district.
Eighteen men who had voted
against the plan before were on pc
tition to the court and stated in the
petition that they intended to vote
for the issue in case it was placed
before them again that they had
voted contrary to it under misun
derstanding of what it really was.
The court went into the matter
thoroughly and when it had finished
its deliberations the order for anoth-
er election was passed Immediately.
The people over there are not very
much stirred up against the plan
this time and it is understood that
there will be no difficulty in having
enough to vote for it to carry with
out any trouble.
Only eight votes were lacking to
carry it before and there are no
more who can be mustered against
it this time while last time a great
many of the friends of the movement
stayed away from the polls thinking
that it was certain to carry any way.
Next time their votes will go into
the ballot box.
The canvass is going ON quietly IN
this district. There is not a great
deal of talk over the matter and the
people are doing great deal of
thinking on the subject This means
that they will arrive at the right
conclusion. They will settle the
matter in business like way and
for business like reasons.
The people who are back of the
plan are satisfied with the progress
of affairs and are banking on having
trains in operation to Kingwood be-
fore the end of the present year.

instead Of yours or somebody else's;
for If you do, you are putting pre-
