The KingWood National Bank.

So Section ago. Judge Blowhorn there
and then declared there was no such law
and II the Legislature had made such Law.
he would repeal Il by his decision and that
would end IL. So there was nothing 70
Shahan to do but to walk off and swear out
warrant for the Baby Police for an assault
on him and at the same time swore out q
warrant for taking unlswfulIy of of his
person Sal, and some odd cents and only
returning to him $I6.as. This warrant
can be found In Justice Morris Office.
The reason Shahan did not have IL served
was because he was advised to await
the action of the Grand Jury, as there could
only be preliminary trial before the JUS
tice anyway. The case will be properly
presented at that time.
Now, as to Roster staying in town the
night referred to by Judge Blowhorn and
acting in disgraceful manner, and tor
which decency forbids him to mention.
In the FIRST place, we don't believe that any
body ever told him any such thing. II so.
why did he not give his authority In the
second place, we challenge and dare him to
say what II was, and give his authority, as
We will try and find Somebody that is re-
sponsible Now, we say and can prove
beyond reasonable doubt. that this is a
falsehood. Roster can prove by not less
than seven or eight witnesses all about his
whereabouts. We consider that no gentle
man, or part of gentleman, would stoop
so low as Judge Blowhorn has IN his falsify
ing the truth. Now, we want 70 say that we
heard as many as twenty of the ben citizens
OF the town, and win stand by II, say that
the fair name of their town had been dis
graced by the conduct Of the officials and
they intended TO see that IL was remedied AZ
the Polls at the Town Election.
In conclusion. we wan. TO say that the
above IS true statement of facts a. to the
Shahan Roster case, and will add that
once began. We will not quit pnsiI this
matter Is sifted to the bottom, and the
citizens right of the town restored to them
again.

The Wheeling Intelligencer has
this to say IN regard to the suit in
The United States Court between
the Kingwood Coal Company of
Howesville and the West Virginia
Northern Railroad under the head.
ing:
LONG DELAYED JUSTICE HAS BEEN
DONE AT LAST. Judge COTS de
cision in the case of the Kingwood
Coal Company against the West
Virginia Northern Railroad Com
pany concerning the discrimination
OF that company in furnishing cars,
is quite Illuminating with regard 70
the position of independent coal
companies in this state. The gist
OF Judge COTS opinion ss, that il IS
illegal for railroads TO discriminate
to the extent Of smothering con
Germs outside OF large combines;
that they are entitled proportion.
ately to the same number of cars
that the large corporations are, the
proportion being guided by the
amount of production.
This decision will relieve a very
strained situation in this state, aud
encourage the development Of pro-
perty that has been languishing
solely on account Of the injustice
Of the railroads complained Of We
believe that Judge Golf has made
himself so PLAIN in the decree he
has handed down that 1t will not be
well for any railroad operating in
in this state to ignore.

DECISION OF JUDGE GOFF
Handed Down In Case OF Ringwood
Coal Co., vs.. w. Va. N. X. X. CO.
Coal Company Wins.
From the clarksburs News.

From the Clarksburg News.
Judge Nathan Golf of the United
States Circuit Court, today handed
down his decision in the case of the
Kingsood Coal Company VS. the
West Virginia Northern Railroad
Company and the plaintiff won the
Case. This suit was brought several
months ago by the Kingwood Coal
Company on the grounds that the
defendant had been guilty of un.
equal distribution of railroad cars TO
said coal company in comparison to
the capacity Of The Irona Coal
Company, and the Atlantic Coal
Company, which are located on the
same road. When the Kingwood
Company brought the suit it was
receiving, but 10 per cent of cars
and Judge Golf in his opinion
decided that the capacity of their
plant entitled them 10 8 per cent of
cars. This case has been watched
with great interest since it was
instituted, and will doubtless bring
an end to the unjust discrimination
that it is said is being made by
Railroad companies against indie
pendent operators.
Judge COTS opinion was lengthy
and coverted every detail of the
question involved. After the rem
dering of the decision Judge Holt,
attorney for the defendants, made
motion to file special statement
of facts.

The acquittal of James R. Tillman
by South Carolina jury of the
cold blooded murder of Editor Con-
zales is an outrage and blot on the
justice of that State, and but proves
"that Justice moves with a leaden
heel" The Tillman family has
such hold on the State that they
seem to be able to do anything and
the people down there indorse it.
Tillman met Gonzales on the street
and shot him down with no chance
for defense, Gonzales being un-
armed.

nished at cost so this amount gets
big lot of the patriotic goods.
In addition 10 this most Of the peo
pie already have more or lees on
hand and some of the merchants
had already ordered some. Then
about $50 more will be expended

arches.
