the court will 60 into Information

Roosevelt has been defeated and

The Mountain has travelled, and
the papers have been filed asking
the courts to Issue an Injunction re.
questing the beef trust to please be
good. A dozen injunetions, hun
dreds of them, will avail nothing.
An Injunction may discover the
trust, but 1t cannot reduce the
price OF meats. The right of the
packers to charge what they please
will remain to them after the In
junction Is issued just the same.
1t Is the tariff that gives them
the power to charge too much for
meat. Take off the tariff and com
petition will regulate prices. There
is no other method of bringing
about the desired result. A suit In
equity Is farce, and Its pu rpose is
not to break up the trust, but to
fool the people and make them
think the government Is doing he
roic work In their interest.

the best way to carry bait Is In a

The invitations for the Com.
mencement Exercises of the Sis
tersville High School have arrives
and will be mailed this week by
the members OF the graduating
class to their friends. The invita-
ton is beautiful piece of engrav
ing and Is one Of the finest we
have ever seen. The first page of
the invitation reads as follows:
The Class of nineteen hundred
andtwo Sistersville High School
RI q tests the honor of your presence

eight o'clock, Sistersvi1le, w. Va.
On the third page of the invita-
tion are the names of the gradual

Agnes Kelley. Bertha White, Don

The Baccaleaureat sermon will be
preached Sunday evening May

Junior graduating class will have
some special recitations, essays, etc. !.
In the High School Auditorium
next Friday evening, a full pro

published In day or two. These
exercises will be all we will have.
We hope that all who can will
visit our schools before closing day
and witness the visible marked I'M
provements we have made In the
the past two or three years. If the
people will do this we know they
will be more than satisfied with the
work of the Board of Education
and Superintendent Hess and his
able corps OF teachers. We have
by far the best public school In the
State, but we must not stop but
keep the good work going at $40
speed. We need more room, better
salaries, more equipments and these
we will get, but we can't expect or
hope for anything with T. ]. Buck
on the Board of Education. Don't
forget to scratch his name when
you vote.

The Army and Navy Journal
notes, as an interesting circum-
stance" that In spite OF the advanc-
Ing prices of beef and the popular
indignation against the beef trust
tie war department Is making con-
tracts for beef for army posts for
the next fiscal year at rates con-
siderably lower than those which
prevailed one year ago.
What is the significance of all
this? 1t Is doubtless true, for the
Army and Navy Journal has ex-
ce1lent information on army mat
tiers. But the information should
be accompanied by a diagram
equally authoritative. Is the
beef trust "givipg beef away"
to the government, out of
sheer patriotism. or Is 1t sup
plying the army on favored
terms with the idea that If the peo.
pie become violent 1t can count
upon the army's coming to Its res
cue-or what? If the contracts
really mean that beef Is shortly
going down. the public deserves
part of the credit.
The army and Navy Journal
ought to explain. 1t surely Is not
prepared to insinuate that the pop
ular indignation against what Is
known as the beef trust" Is un-
reasonable or fiction.

A Question Of Comparison.

Major General Otis was present
at a recent gathering where a
young man had seen some little
service In the Porto Rican skirm
ishes of 1892 was fluttering the
groundings with tales of horror and
heroism In that campaign, which
he pictured on a scale so large that
Waterloo seemed a small affair by
comparison. The young man was
fond of an audience and seemed to
resent the Ill concealed impatience
manifested by the general during
bis descriptions. Finally Otis In
terrupted with:
Young man you probably have
not heard tn story of the victim OF
the Johnstown food Of 1880 who,
when he reached PARADISE scended
a cloud that served within the
pesrly gates as rostrum, and an.
dertook to thrill the uew-made &C.
quaintances among the shades with
an account of the disaster through
which he had passed. He was In
terrupted by a graybearded old man
in the group. "A mere bucketful-
mere bucketfulr the old fellow
piped, Don't waste so much time
talking of a small affair like that y
The Johnstown man resented this
and hunted up st. Peter, of whom
he asked: who Is that old cod.
ger who seems to think our food
such trifiing NATTER" That? said
st. Peter, why, that's Noah!' "
