OPPOSE "PERD STORE
Meeting Of T Temperance People
at M. e. Church Tonight.


COMMITTEES to Report action to be
Taken Looking to Suppression of
Fairmont Brewing Company's Ware
House Business, From the "Feed
Store" In south Mergante~n.
A meeting of the temperance COM
mittee appointed by the Methodist
Episcopal Sunday school will be
held at the NJ. r. church this even
Il ing in connecti with general
temperance conference Of representa-
tives from all the churches who will
take part In the movement.
The National Temperance Society
is making twentieth century world
wide pledge signing crusade against
Intoxicating liquors. This move
ment is being brought before the
people who advocate temperance in
Morgantown and many pledge cards
are being circulated.
But the primary object of the
meeting this evening and OF the
present activity is to oppose the Ii
auor business as carried on from the
Fairmont Brewing Company's "Feed
Store in the first ward.
Some ime ago application was
made to council for permission to
erect a feed store by the B. and 0.
tracks in the FIRST ward. The permit
was granted, the building erected,
and Immediately 1t was occupied by
the Fairmont Brewing Company as a
ware room foI the storage OF beer. A
delivery wagon was sent here, and
now fine team OF grays can be seen
upon the streets daily delivering
malt liquors In cases to customers.
The temperance people and church
organizations here oppose the feed
store traffic and ari organizing a cru
SADIE against it. They feel that such a
business should lot be transacted in a
local option town and county, such
as Morgantown, and Monongalia
county.
1t is not known just what can be
done, but meeting will be held, the
matter discussed, and conference will
be heldOwith the prosecuting attorney
to get at the legal aspects Of the case.
II anything can be done to suppress
the sale OF this liquor here and its de-
livery through local ware house, 1t
will be done, aud that right away.
Legal counsel will be consulted and
all the power the law confers will be
used to send this business back to
the town where It is licensed and let
people who want the liquor order it
by express or freight as heretofore.

MOUNTAIN LAUREL WINS.
Large Majority Of Public School Votes
In Favor of 1t for State Flower.

The vote 10 the Public School We'd
nesday afternoon on the choice of a
state flower as an emblem resulted 10
a large majority for the mountain
laurel. This is not rhododendrou.
1t is the state flower Of Washington
state. There were few votes for
other flowers, but the sentiment for
laurel was nearly unanimous.
The Fairmont schools voted on the
question the same afternoon, and
made the same choice. Their second
choice was the mountain honeysuckle.
The laurel is indigenous to perhaps
every county 10 West Virginia, and
is. the emblem OF victory as IT has
ken for ages.
The result Of the elections held 10
the schools all over the state will be
reported to Prof. T. G. Miller at
Charleston and by him tabulated,
and the total result will be announced
through the West Virginia School
Journal.
Reports from the Wheeling schools
show that the laurel had majority
OF the votes there, though there were
a great many votes for the wild rose,
goldenrod, daisy, violet and honey
suckle. A great deal of interest has
been manifested 10 the choice Of a
state emblem.
