Lying Not Necessary.

There is still lingering belief in
many quarters that lie is just rs
good as the truth; and there are
others who believe in lying when it
is done judiciously. We are still a
long way from the convictions that
all lying is mistake and that in
the last analysis false statement
works out unfortunate results. II
this were not the condition there
would be little more care taken as
to the statements made about the
fertility and productiveness of the
Arsansas valley, which has had a
great deal of unqualified and IN.

latest sample of it is an article ap.
pearing in the Topeka Daily Herald
and reproduced in several of the
weekly papers Of the valley, in re-
gard to beet pulp rs feed for milk

date to tell anybody who either keeps
cows near beet factory or reads the
papers, that beet pulp as food ar.

MARTIN BEYER FOUND.
Missing Contractor Writes a Letter
to His Wife from Oregon-Became
Demented, Wandered Away.

No item of news was ever re-
ceived with more interest than
the announcement which reached
here Sunday, to the effect that
the whereabouts of the missing
Contractor, Martin Boyer had
been ascertained. Mrs. Boyer
received letter from her husband
Sunday, dated at Medford, Oregon.
Mr.. Boyer states that he cannot
account for his presence there in
any way, and that his mind is
blank concerning his departure
and trip to this far off country.
He states that on the night of his
departure he remembers leaving
his boarding place and going to
the public school house and sit
ing on the steps, and from that
moment until the time he came
to himself working at the carpen-
ters trade at Medford, o., he
knows nothing. He stated that
he had faint recollection of
starting some buildings in Sweet
water and was anxious to know Of
his wife whether he had COM
pIeted them. The letter consisted
of several pages, part of which
is said to indicate that Mr.. Boyer
is yet in somewhat demented
condition.
Immediately after receiving the
news meeting of the Masonic
Lodge at Colorado was called and
a messenger dispatched after the
unfortunate man, and is expected
to arrive with him tomorrow.
Mr.. Boyer disappeared on the
night of July %, and since that
time no effort was spared to OBJ
tain a clew of him, but all proved
futile.
News of the missing man comes
not only to his family and init
mate friends as glad tidings, but
to the people of Sweetwater as
well, as many were firmly of the
belief that he had met with foul
play, and that his body was con-
cealed in or around our town
They are glad that no such de-
plorable deed can be recorded in
the history of our town.-Sweet.

county. One of these told Mr..

Mr.. Blackwell in q body. He
also had information that quite a
number who were undecided and
had no preference would swell
the Blackwell ranks. Mr.. Black
we'll stands high in the estima-
ton of his friends, and, Mr..
O'Daniei says, that if elected, he
will make the best sheriff Coke
county ever had. Mr.. O'Daniel

EXERCISE FOR HEALTH.
Mr.. Billy Whytock VIII Instruct a
Class of Children in Physical
Training.

Arrangements have been COM
pleted whereby Billy Whytock, n
close student and practical ex-
pert, will instruct children in
physical culture at the Turn Ve-
rein gymnasium. Instructions
will begin next Tuesday, Oct. Z,
and will be given on Tuesday and
Friday afternoons, from 1870
till 6 o'clock. The tuition will
be 70 cents per month, payable
in advance, without exception.
Members children will receive
special rates.
1t is only recently that physi-
cal culture has been properly APP
preciated in our country, but its
Importance is now generally rec
ognized, and, therefore, nothing
need be added here. On physical
health nearly everything else de-
ponds, and there is nothing more
conducive to 1t than proper eXer-
else. Not only the limbs are thus
exercised, but even the action of
internal organs are thereby re-
stored and kept in proper con-
dition. Start the children at the
beginning-the price is nothing
in comparison with the great
benefit to be derived by the sys-
TEN indicated.

The railroads fought the creation Of
the commission with all the vigor Of
which they are capable, as did their
newspapers, but it was in vain.
The new Constitution makes radi-
cal changes, too, in the name OF
taxing railroad property. Under the
present organic law, all subjects must
bear the same rate of taxation. This
is changed under the new order Of
things, and the tax on railroad prop
erty may be double or treble that on
real estate or any other class of prop
erty. This change is largely due to a
suggestion given by President Cassatt,
of the Pennsylvania Railroad, in con-
versation with a prominent member of
the finance committee of the Conven-
ton. Mr.. Cassatt remarked to this
gentleman "that Virginia lawmakers
had not begun to learn how to exact
taxation from corporations" This tip
was quickly acted upon, and largely
as the result of Mr.. Cassatt's timely
hint the new finance provision was
worked out.
All of the leading men agree that
the new Constitution is the best Vir-
ginia has had for years, if it is not
the best the State ever had given her.
The Republicans are disposed to ques-
ton the right of the Convention to
proclaim the instrument. This,
though, in the Judgment of the ablest
jurists and lawyers, will not amount to
anything. The Constitution goes into
effect July 10th, and on that day every
officer of the State is required to
take oath under it. A failure to COM
ply with this provision will vacate the
Office of the recalcitrant. This APP
plies to judges and members of the
Legislature also. It is possible that
one or two stubborn Legislators may
refuse to subscribe to the oath, but
if so they will no doubt be promptly
expelled from the body. Tt is hardly
likely that the suggestion of Judge
Green the chairman of the committee
on bill of rights, will be carried out
in such an event. The Judge favored
hanging as high as John Brown the
Governor or any other officer who re-
fused to subscribe to the new Consti-
tuition. It is hardly possible that any
gibbets will be needed for the purpose
suggested by the Judge.
