He is Out of Politics and Will Begin
Court Work at Once.

George D. Gear was caught for a mo-
ment on the street yesterday afternoon
by an Advertiser man. The newly APP
pointed Judge was in company with his
brother, A. V. Gear, the real estate
broker, and appeared in excellent
health and spirits.
mo, I haven't got a thing to give
you," said Mr.. Gear You seem to
have been kept pretty well informed of
everything that we were doing back
there in Washington. L had a good
time and l don't think I have lost any
flesh" At this juncture Mr.. Tesla
came up and the two gentlemen
facetiously touched first each others
stomachs and then each other
hands.
Il think I can scale down even my
friend Testa,' remarked Judge Gear
land now as I have a great many en-
gagements today you must excuse me.
Oh, yes, we are good friends now, Rob
ert and myself. My trip satisfactory
Quite so. I have not yet taken my
oath, although I see my friends are al
ready greeting me as Judge. I expect
to take the oath on Monday. I am en-
tirely out of politics now and expect
to have my time fully occupied by
court work, as believe there is a great
accumulation of business on hand
The new Circuit Court Judge will
probably open court on Monday next,
much to the relief of the lawyers and
clients who have been unable to Obtain
a hearing owing to the inability of
Judge Humphreys to attend to all the
business on hand.

MINISTERIAL UNION OF THIS
CITY ON D|SPEN|SSAARY BILL

Because the question Of the right of any
community to decide for itself concern
ing the disposition of intoxicantS has
been decided again and again by the
Supreme Court in favor of the COM
munities rather than in favor of sa-
loonkeepers.
go That there will be 'illicit liquors
is granted. There are lnicit liquors
now. This objection stands against the
present system with as full force, as
against the Dispensary bill.
ca The same thing is true of Club
houses"
co The attempt is made to influence
temperance people against the bill by
the plea that it is not a Temperance"
measure" It is true that the bill is not
a total abstinence measure, which we
wish it might be, but it is an effort to-
ward putting in the hands of the peo
pie the control of the liquor traffic.
leaving the responsibility of dispen-
saries or no dtspensaries upon the peo-
pie, where it rightfully belongs.
/ CONCLUSION
That the liquor interests are doing
all in their power to defeat the bill is
a strong argument in it's favor. The
duties and import value of liquors
brought into these Islands in 1898
amounted to $S71.O72. The profit or in
crease price on this amount ranges
from one hundred to four hundred per
cent. At the very lowest possible esti-
mate business profit of a million to a
million and a half dollars per annum
is interested in postponing or defeating
this bill. Whether men use liquor or
not, this financial consideration is a
strong argument in favor of adopting
the dispensary system. 1t is better for
a drunkard and his family to have a
chance to use a part of that money in
other ways than to fill the saloon cof-
fers.
| That there. have been increased value
of lands and larger volume of legiti-
mate business and a decrease of crime
in districts where the dispensary sys-
tenn has been in force cannot be denied.
That the system is not perfect we are
ready to claim. But we submit our
hope that the Dispensary bill, some
what amended, may be adopted as an
improvement upon existing conditions

THE BEST REMEDY FOR RHEU
MATISM.
QUICK RELIEF FROM PAIN.

QUICK RELIEF FROM PAIN.
All who use Chamberlain's Pain
Balm for rheumatism are delighted
with the quick relief from pain which
it affords. When speaking of this Mr..
D. N. Sinks, of Troy. Ohio, says: Some
time ago I had a severe attack of
rheumatism in my arm and shoulder.
tried numerous remedies, but got no
relief until I was recommended by
Messrs. George F. Parsons & Co, drug
gists, Of this place, to try Chamber
lains Pain Balm. They recommended
it so highly that I bought a bottle. I
was soon relieved of all pain. 1 have
since recommended this liniment to
many Of my friends. who agree with
me that 1t is the best remedy for mus
cular rheumatism in the market" For

OBJECTIONS.

The objections to the bill are mainly
those arising at any time and under
any sale of intoxicants.
% The bottle habit" referred to by
DIRECTORS, is prevalent now and in adj
dition there is all the evil of the bar
room added. That the bottle habit
VIII be increased beyond the limit now
placed by "barroom" and bottle" is an
assumption which is very difficult to
believe.
(2) That any provisions in this act
conflict with provisions of the United
States Constitution" is a suggestion
which no intelligent man will adopt.

DANGER.

We would call attention however, to
the wide-open door for small restau-
rants and the large number of methods
which can be used in evading the pro-
visions and intent of this act, and the
hotel or restaurant keeper still fulfill
the conditions of this act as it now
stands. The liquors can be sold at the
exact price paid at the dispensary and
yet high prices charged for other goods
and thus a good profit realized in the
handling of the liquors. We would be
ready to favor the passage of the bill
as whole with the following amend
meDts.

STRANGE
In one Particular at Least, is the Con-
dnct of Prof. Cook.

Prof. Algie r. Cook, of the North

man who recently admitted to his
class that he 'neyer swore, never
tasted intoxicants, never smoked and
never kissed or Rugged a woman.
Prof. Cook is feet 10 inches high,
gracefully formed and weighs $50
pounds. Health shows in his skin
and carriage. His forehead is high
and narrow. His nose is clearly cut
and pronounced, his eyes of greyish
blue, clear and full of expression.
His lips are rather thick and closed
firmly, and his chin is determined.
He says he is not interested in
women and adds: ''Peopie should

FIGHT OVER.
South Morgantown Decides to
Stop Kicking.

Judge Johnson advises Them that they
Have no Grounds for Scrapping and
they Decide TO abandon the Effort
Troubles apparently all Ended for
the new City.
South MorgantoWn has quit. They
have decided that it faint no use. .
The council has passed a solemn order
to accept the situation as it stands
and to come ia out of the wet. This
disposes of the fight against Greater
Morganuown as far as that town is
concerned.
The action taken was result Of
the opinion given them by Judge Okey
Johnson. They asked for his advice
and he gave it to them in substance
saying that they had no chance Of
beating the new charter an that they
had better make the best of the stu
alton.
1t was determined to accept this
advice and a resolution was introduce
ed into council and passed to the eff
feet that they would no longer oppose
the scheme Of consolidation.
Nothing has been heard from Green
mont about the matter but they will
probably take the same action as
they stand on precisely the same
footing as South Morgantown.
This ends the fight in all probabil-
ity as there seems TO be no one else TO
fight and the chances of victory are
not alluring enough to tempt ordinary
people out to scrap.
Recorders of the other two towns
who have been ordered to turn in their
records and books will do SO at once
or as soon as they can get them
written up to date.
1t is matter of congratulation 10
everyone that the row is over and it
should how be the desire and effort Of
every one to get all the benefits of the
new charter that is possible for every
one in it to ENJOY.
Nothing can be gained by kicking
and holding back. The die is cast
1t now remains to get what is coming
to US in it. All pull together and
the troubles will soon disappear.
