price to close out

HAVE you seen the Ladies and
Misses jackets, capes, etc, The Nov

Not much in price, but great deal
of a bargain.

City Market.
THE only place in town to buy
groceries, fresh meats, oysters and
everything you want to eat, is at
the City Market.

HALF price on every ladies' wrap
in our store. Hirschman's.
The display of eatables i'm front
of st. Clair's Restaurant is
enough to make anyone hungry.
1t is very creditable display.
GOOD roads would add third to
the value of any farm in the county
and they would make farmers life
just twice as desirable as it is at pres
ent. Why can't we have them?
A MILE or SO of good roads built
each year would soon extend fine pixies
to some distance from the county
seat in every direction. The money
would not be missed and after the
mods 1uara p,ada +baU would rao,,iro
very little attention or expenditure Of
money. The county court should do
something to remedy the present aw-
full condition Of affairs.
WHEN winter comes with it's bot
tomless roads and travel has TO be sus-
pended, there are cries, means and
lamentations about the "terrible
roads" but no sooner has the gentle
zephyrs of spring dried up the mud
than the whole matter is forgotten.
There is no kind Of public improve
ment that interests and benefits more
people than good roads. Why can't
we have them?
THE suburban townsneed not think
that Morgantown is going into any
plan that will make the tax rate
higher than it is now. We would
have nothing to gain by this and do
not propose to pay more money with
out getting something in return.
The outlying towns may be sure
that they will get square deal on
the Greater Morgantown scheme.
OUR telephone service is sharing
with the rest of the town in making
progress toward the greatest posi-
BILE state of efficiency. The new
switchboard was badly needed at
the c., ID. and p. office. The PEG
pies line got new one sometime
ago No town appreciates the phone
more than Morgantown and no town
has more subscribers in proportion
to population than we have.
| The income of the sheriff from
town prisoners will lack goodly
number of dollars from reaching the
| figure that it touched last year Then
it went a great deal over one hundred
dollars. This year it falls short of
that limit. Much of this is due to
| the fact that Imprisonment has been
made to mean something and the men
who have been run in have had to pay
| for their fun. The sentence of bread
and water when man shows that he
is too found of the comforts of the
jail has done great deal to make a
stay there unpopular. The new may
or will do well to follow the example
Of the one who is about to step down
and out. The fact that man goes
to jail may not be any punishment to
him but when his grub is cut short
that is real punishment. 1t should
be the endeavor to make prisoners
feel that they are being punished
when they are sent to jail.
IRIS half price that is reducing
our stock-of wraps rapidly. Buy
now for next winter Hirschman's
