labelling OF tadulterated wooden
goods just as oleomargarine hams to
be labeled. uses the facts presented in
this table TO demonstrate the increased
and increasing importance Of cotton
as a cheap substitute for other fbers
and the futility of legislating against
it as long as the public demands il IN
the present forms. He says;
III will be observed that the order Of
importance has been reversed. Flax,
of which the largest quantity was
used in 1900 is now third and the
quantity now consumed is not quite
double the consumption OF one hun
bred years ago The consumption OF
wool has increased five times, but,
whereas there was twice as much
wool used as cotton in 1900, there IS
now three times as much cotton used
as wool, an the increase in cotton
consumption has been nearly forty
times. The figures demonstrate the
unequal character Of the competition
between the ibers. Protests and re-
solutions are as useless as the pope
bull against the comet. Cotton will
continue to take the place Of wool
whenever and wherever it is posi-
bic to substitute it. Silk is its victim
as well as wool, and good share OF
the intense depression which has re-
Gently marked the silk manufacture is
tracable to the substitution of mer-
cerized cotton for the dearer goods.
The modern method Of finishing the
cheaper fiber supplies cheap imita-
ton of silk, and people buy it because
it is cheaper, knowing also that it is
poorer. The same thing has happened
to degree, in the wool manufacture.

APOLlTiCAL MIX.
The situation In Politics-A Guberna-
tOrtal Candidate for I904-Some
Appointments.

Washington, June 0.--The situa-
tion in West Virginia politics here is
still complicated. II now turns out
that at the wind-up, VInson. jackson
and Keller were seriously considered
for the federal judeeship, with the
pros; epial preference in favor of
NI&sou. At the last moment, how
ever, Charleston influence acting
through Secretary Root, was thrown
against Vinson because of his con-
nection with the celebrated King land
suit, and as result Keller, the Penn
sylvanian backed by the influence of
Pennsylvania and the Norfolk q Wes-
tern coal interests, was appointed.
This is the inside story and as re-
suit Elliott Northcott, of Huntington
has become one of the most prominent
figures in State politics today.
When it was seen that the judgeshlp
would not be his Mr.. Northcott was
offered the consulship to Buenos Az
res. So much pressure was brought
TO bear upon sbim bv friends, who
knew the future of State politics that
he refused that position and is today
considered the Republican leader for
the Governorship of West Virginia in
1904. Backed by the influence of both
Scott and Elklns who are avowedly
for him, his nomination is assured.
The consulship to Buenos Ayres has
been rendered to James Kelsey Hall
Of Wheeling, now in this city, in re-
-ponse TO a telegram, but it is thought
that Mr.. Hall, too. will decline the
preferred honor.
1t has been settled that while Il
former sheriff of Mcdowell county
will be Judge Keller's appointee as
district clerk, Charles Kefauver will
be made circuit clerk. 1t is probable
that ID. E. Hughes brother Of Con-
gresham Hughes, will be chief clerk
| in Marshal Thomson 5 office.

sHAKEUP OF IL. & o. OFFICIALS

A big shake-up in the various de-
partments of the B. q o. railroad is
expected within the next few days,
and it is reported that d. B. Martin,
manager of passenger traffic, will pre-
sent his resignation at the next board
meeting in anticipation of those gen
eral changes. 1t is said that George
w Boyd, assistant general passenger
agent of the Pennsylvania railroad,
had been slated for this position, but
that he had entered an objection to
the transfer. This objection however,
may be overruled as was that of L i.
f. Loree, when the presidency of
the b. 30. was offered to him.

In view of the recent order of the

James A. Hamilton, of Chambers

thought we had the tramp question in
Franklin county settled for all time.
We started out to make them work.
We boughtsseveral hundred carloads.

of the county Jail. We invested in a
good many suits OF bluejeans and laid
in stock of hammers and ran up
quite bill for provisions. Then we
sent out after the tramps. We didn't
have to go far: the woods were full
of 'em-sent down. suppose from
Scranton and Allentown.
1.-THE whole county was interested
in the project and the first day of the
experiment we had 600 or 500 people
turn out to sec the tramps work. We
had band of music, too, and alto
gether it was great dav. We had cor
rallied 80 or 40 tramps, and in the fore
noon they worked first rate, bat after
the midday meal they complained of
the food. In the afternoon. they
gathered in little groups of three and
four and did good deal of talking.
Next morning after breakfast there
was strike They wouldn't work
and we've never been able to make
them work since.

Acting Through DIR. mckinney.
d. Weston, W. Va, June 20. "A most
remarkable proceeding of the board
of health of Braxton county, through
one of its members DIR. l.. l.. McKinny
was perpetrated Tuesday at Burns
vile, when McKinny stopped the
through passenger and mail train,
with about one hundred passengers
aboard, arrested the engineer, fireman
antl conductor, chained the wheels of
the locomotive to the rails, locked
the chain, put the keys in his pocket
and held all traffic on the road still
for three hours and half, all be-
cause three men afflicted with small
pox, who had been working for the
company in Webster county, came to
Burnsville a few days ago and took
up their lodging in a box car that was
on the sidetrack. being unable to pro-
coed farther than huntsville. For
this Superintendent Lane was notified
that. if this car and the smallpox sus-
poets were not taken from huntsville,
and ont of Braxton county, they
would stop any railroad trains, from
passing through the county quaran-
timing the same.
Mr.. Lane refused, knowing that he
would only spread the disease by
moving the car, ana violate the sta
tute that requires railroad companies
not to move cars unless the same are
free from infectious disease and flu
migated.
The passengers on the train We're
simply wild with indignation, as We're
some of the best citizens of Burns
vile. The board of health We're in
close touch with McKinny by tele-
phone. Injunction proceedings will
be served and the government has or
dered the arrest of DIR. McKinny. who
is president of the local board of
health for stopping the mails. Two
deputy United States marshals were
sent from Clarksburg to huntsville TO
arrest DIR. McKinny.

TWO INTERESTING CASES.
One Destitute Family In the city Starv-
Ing and One Living Well by PROBES
sional Begging Warming TO the
CharitabIy Disposed Citizens.

CharitabIy Disposed Citizens
So long as the earth on its axis shall
turn
And circling its orbit shall go,
So long as the sun of its summers
shall burn,
So long as its rivers shall flow;
SO long as the tide of its oceans shall
rise
And ebb and its mountains endure,
So long as the stars shall begem the
night skies,
We shall hear the sad wall OF the
poor.
The poor we shall always have
with us If there We're no contrasts
in life, to be seen in flower. in man or
in tree; no sickness or trials, no
grievance or woes, no falsehoods to
compare with truths, no object upon
which sympathy could bestow her
bountiful treasures; no JOY would we
know, nothing sweet could we taste,
sympathy would soon be dead and our
very existence would be threatened.
Coming back nearer to the subject
of poverty. two contrasting cases are
placed before the eyes of the public,
cases with which but few of the citi-
zens of Martinsburg are familiar.
One is a case in which family by the
name Of Kersey, living in the old pot
terry, have been reported as starving.
The head of the fam lily, who for some
time past posed as a detective, re-
Gently received a stroke of paralysis
which rendered hm entirely helpless
and his wife and little son have been
unable to provide enough to eat for
the family. AS result he and has
family have been almost starving for
want of food. The county authorities
have taken mp the case and have
offered to send Mr. Kersey to the Poor
house and to otherwise provide fo1
his family.
The other case is one by which the
GlALeHS nave lOI luOnlus past Dttu I'M
posed upon-udeserved poverty-and
it is about time a stop is put to it.
The Bennett family, living near the
Fair Ground, have for several months
been making a living by professional
begging. The head of the family former
ly worked at the stone quarries, but
he gave that up sometime ago and he's
been sending his children about over
town to beg for food and money.
The little tots have been trained in
the profession. Standing at door
they cry and plead until the hearts OF
the citizens from whom they beg give
away TO their pleadings and some
thing is forthcoming to relieve them
of their poverty. The case has
been fully Investigated by the Relief
Association and the citizens are re.
quested not give them anything, as
by doing so they only encourage in
dolence The man is able to work, but
went as long as he can impose on the
public.
