IT is getting quite dry and dusty
and every one wishing that some
rain would come to lay the dust.
The first foot ball game is to take
place on September 81. The boys
will have to hurry if they expect to
get into any thing like good shape
by that date. 1t is very likely that
they will not be able to get ready
for it.
IN THESE days of industrial dis
quietude and scrapping between capt.
tai and labor it will be interesting to
hear Hon. Carroll D. Wright talk of
the possible solution for the troubles
which beset US.
PAPERS at Parkersburg are fus-
sing about circulation. 1t is very
likely that none of them are embar-
rassed by the amount of papers that
people are elamoring to be given.
REPORTS from Hancock county are
to the effect that Miss Jane Stewart
who was named for county superin-
tendent will probably be elected al
though she has a large majority to
overcome.
Now that there is nothing to de-
lay the work of starting the new
power house for the Electric Light
and Power company ii is to be mop
ed that the company will hurry. We
want a plant that will furnish light.
On next Saturday the local lodge
of Rebakahs will give an excursion
to Brownsville and return. They
always have a big crowd to 60 with
them and this time will be no excep-
ton TO that rule. The trip will be
made a pleasant one for every one
who may go. The rate will be only
fifty cents for the round trip

For weeks nothing has been
thought of the bloody murder at
Acheson which took place last
spring The murderers have dis
appeared quietly into the earth and
the old adage about the murder be-
ing bound to be discovered seems to
have lost its virtue.
On Friday of this week State
Henry will be executed at Mounds
vile. There are several others in
the state institution who will be
sent out of the world on account of
their misdeeds. Executions may be
expected to come thick and fast
during the next few months

GOOD WORDS FOR US.
Pittsburg Times Speaks Ed itOrially of
the Progress We are Making.


The story from Morgantown w.
Va, this morning shows the prosper
ity and development that are going
on up the Monongahela beyond the
State line. For years Morgantown
was quiet university town, content
to be known as an educational CEN
ter and happy in its pleasant loca-
ton on the river hills Then the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad put a
branch through the community, and
about the same time the newer West
Virginia began to come into exist
ence says the Pittsburg Times.
Morgantown now is IN a fair way to
become a thriving city, while all of
the northern part of the State has
awakened under the influence of the
railroad, the oil man, the coal mine
and the sawmill. West Virginia is
making astonishing progress. No
matter what direction the stranger
takes in the State he finds new and
thrifty town building on the foun
dations of the old villages.
Morgantown is the center of q
large territory which is opening for
development. Like Clarksburg,
Fairmont and Weston it will not
only be a manufacturing and pro-
ducing. point, but also a dis
trlbuting center and financial
headquarters for the operations that
must follow. 1t is doubtful if any
other State in the Union will make
greater proportionate advance in
the next 10 years than West Vir-
ginia.

Window shades-See Jones.

Ir is said that the Bell telephone
company has about decided to cut
off all free communication with the
outside world and that after a GER
tain date it will cost ten cents to
talk to Fuirmont.
THIS fact leads us to remark that
Manager Swisher is making spe-
cialty of good shows this season.
He is getting wise and cannot be as
easily fooled with bum shows as
some managers in other towns.
Mr.. DAWSON does not see why the
brethren do not quiet down and get
together. One reason tor the un-
rest NAV be found in the fact that it
is a hard matter for a man to be
quiet when he is being misused.
From all over the country chances
of surprise are being directed at
Morgantown on account of the fuss
the old town is making in an indus
trial way. 1t is a generally accept
ed that a college town is good for
nothing else but we are gong TO ex-
plode this fallaey eyerytlme that it
tries to do business in these parts.
TINE was when a stranger on the
streets of Morgantown was an item
of curiosity to every one. Now one
meets hundreds of them every day
and does not stop to ask who they
are unless something very much out
of the ordinary attracts him. Times
are changing and the town is chang
ing with them.

Prof K. G. Davis and family have
left Morgantown for their new home
at Menomenie, Wis, where he has a
position at a much better salary
than the state of West Virginia
could pay him. While in Morgan
town but short time Prof. Davis
made host of friends and showed
that he was man of splendid
worth. That he is forced to leave
because of low salary is matter of
regret and one that calls for some
serious consideration at the hands
OF the legislature when it begins to
think over appropriations next win

pendent trunk line through the

road monopoly. Rates are high, &C.

are inadequate, and many of the

It Is rumored that The Pennsyl.
vania Is to get control ard posses
sion of the Ohio River railroad.
We hope that this Is true. The
Ohio River Is a natural connection
of the great P. r. R. system, and
not of the B. & o. Especially Is
this true of Its passenger traffic,
which goes east through Pittsburg
and west through Cincinnati. Un-
der the control Of the b. & o. we
could never expect 1t to be more
than a branch line. While If the
Pennsylvania gets 1t, 1t will soon be
another great, trunk line between
the two cities named above. The
Panhandle, great and big as 1t IS, Is
not able to handle the traffic from
east to west, and If the Pennsylva-
MIA system had this road, they
would soon make 1t trunk line
for the relief of the Panhandle,
giving US excellent facilities, both
for freight and passengers. We
sincerely trust that the report Is
true and that the change will come
oulcklv.

descriptive letter which was writ
ten by Hon. T. R. Brown, of Cat
tletsburg, KY, who writes very
charmingly of the balmy breezes
and delightful time he Is enjoying
In that sunny cline:
"Within two hours sailing from
Rock Reef Hall, we reached the
noted little island containing two
or three acres of beautifully elevat.
ed land, called Soldier Key" This
island Is an oasis. It's green sward
and stately cocoanut trees make 1t
by far the most noted and attrac-
tive Isle of the keys. 1t has a good
harbor and fine fishing and upon 1t
a beautiful palatial residence has
been erected and the whole en-
belished In the most lavish style
until 1t stands forth a beautiful
gem OF, the sea; and not the least OF
all the attractions upon it were the
piles of all manner of variegated
shells aud corals collected by the
hands of little children playing up
on Its shores.
