EDITORIALS.
PREPARE TO ENTER THE
DOOR OF OPPORTUNITY.

In this American age Of COM
Haercial, industrial and and edu-
cational rage there are many
things that the American people
as whole, need, namely: The
Americas people need more loyalty
,oone another. more love for strug-
ling humanity, and more chris
tiau sympathy. but what orr race
need more than anything else;
we need educated young men and
women with united hand and
an honest heart. We need good
true men in the commercial and
industrial world. so when the
door of opportunity IS open we
will be prepared to, enter. 1t is
true that our race like MANY
other races. have been abused,
buffeted, scorned and mistreated.
but this will not always be. there
is a better day coming. brighter
star of hope when men will con-
slider worth, honesty. morality
and qualification rather then col
or. / am an optimist. / believe
that the door Of opportunity
and hope is gradually opening.
Therefore parents teach your
children the true paths OF rirture,
honesty, industry and usefulness.
Teach them to obey at home or
abroad, teach them to shun evil
association and bad company.
teach them not TO loaf their time
away in cities on street corners
or making boistcrous noise, but
nc civil, courteous and kind to all.
Teach them TO abstain from using
tobaccos. cigaretts, whisky Or
visiting these gambling games.
When Our parents impress those
high moral principles upon Our
young We will accomplish more
and be better qualified to enter
the great door of opportunity and
hope which awaits us in the
bright future.

BUXTON SOUVENIR MBEk

In this Buxton souvenir num-
her we have tried to tell the plain
facts and truth about this beautl-
ful town. The editor went there
in person and spent several days
talking and meeting the people.
Therefore this write up and cuts
are real, true from my own perso-
nal knowledge. Many Of the
miners told me that they came to
this camp with no money, clothes
or property, and now by their
honesty and frugality they have
either a nice comfortable home or
house and lot in some other
town. or good size bank ac-
count, which to me was very
cheerful news, then the good
business judgment and kind
courteous treatment that the
owners of the company and store
gives one was much encouraging.
! must speak Of Mr.. B. c. Buxton,
w. A. Wells and n. p. Harring-
ton white are gentlemen to all
honest deserving callers and their
advice and treatment could not
be better. They are liked by the
thousands who know them.
There is no better company for
men colorcd TO work for ! dare say
in the Unitdd States. 49,.

DR.. 7. S. TANNER.

DR.. Isaac Scott Tanner, the veneer
able and well-known physician and
surgeon of Shepherdstown, passed
quietly away at his home in this place
this morning at $50 o'clock. Dr. Tan
ner had been sick for couple Of weeks
from the ills incident to his great ? &c
he was in his 65th year--and stroke
of paralysis week ago still further
enfeebled him and FASTENED his end.
He had been gradually failing for some
time, however, and his death was not
unexpected.
DR.. Tanner was born near Clear
qpring, Nd, on September %, 1918
He came to Shepherdstown on raft Of
lumber, which was foated down the
Potomac river, in 1889. He studied
medicine with the late DR.. Parran, and
in 1915 graduated from the College Of
Physicians and Surgeons. 10 1917 be
passed an examination as surgeon In
the U. S. Navy and received an ap-
pointment. He was unable, however,
to stand ship life because of excessive
seasickness, and resigned. Hereturned
to Shepherdstown and took up the prac-
tice of his profession,in which he built
up a large practice and acquired a
splendid reputation, He had few SUI
periors as d surgeon, and his skill was
widely recognized.
At the breaking out of the civil war
DR.. Tanner enlisted in Company F,
First Virginia Cavalry, in which be
served as lieutenant. At the first bat
tie of Manassas he was promoted on the
field to the rank Of surgeon, ard later
was on General Joseph E. Johnston s
staff. His skill as surgeon attracted
the attention of his superior officers,
and he was finally promoted to be Chief
surgeon of General Hoke's division.
He served throughout the war with
much credit and was regarded as one Of
the best surgeons in the Confederate
Shepherdstown register. [volume] (Shepherdstown, Va. [W. Va.]) 1849-1955, 1903-04-09

Army.
DR.. Tanner was married to Miss
Elizabeth johnson in l846. She died
a couple ofyears ago. His only sur
vivor is his daughter, Mrs. Geo. W.
Banks.
DR.. Tanner was a man Of great intel
Iigence, a reader and thinker, and
studied the subject Of political ecOno-
my very closely. His articles on f.
nance and other topics have often aP-
peared in the REGISTER over the sig
nature IT. F. He was a sturdy
Democrat in politics, and represented
this county in the Legislature some %
years ago. At the close of the war he
returned to "Springdale, his beauti-
full farm near town, and in addition to
practicing his profession he ran the
place successfully and engaged IN the
breedingof Short Horn cattle. He ac-
cumulated considerable wealth, own
ing, besides "Springdale, fine farm
near Uvilla as well as town property.
The news Of DR.. Tanners death will
be received with much regret. His
profession gave him entrance to many
homes in the community, and he has a
wide circle Of friends to mourn him.
A short time before his death DR..
Tanner connected himself with St. Ag-
mes Catholic Church in this place.
His funeral will be held from that
church Saturday morning Of this week
at II o'clock.

In the Railroad World.


A report is in circulation that the
Norfolk & Western Railway will
double-track It's line between Shep-
herdstown and Hagerstown, in anticl-
patton of handling large amount OF
traffic from the B. 20. Railroad when
the new cutoff through this place shall
have been constructed. The Cumber-
land Valley Railroad is now hauling
great quantities Of freight from the B..
& 0. at Martinsburg, but the arrange
,aent Is not very satisfactory. The c..
Y. doesn't care for It particularly, and
the business has been a source Of great
vexatiou to its officials, as the road
has had more trains than they could
handle. It is said that the Norfolk
& Western will double-track between
here and Haqerstown so as to handle
. share Of this traffic, which Is con-
stautlv growing, and which the B &
0. will be glad to turn over to itwhsn
the cutoff Is built through this place.

pointed by the court, we're in SheP-
herdstowu last week TO view the lands
of Mrs. Margaret Y. Staley, Mrs Ella
Lamar and the heirs of D. O. Moler,
and assess the damages caused by the
construction of the B & O cutoff.
B. & 0. Attorney Forrest W. Brown,
Chief Engineer Sisson and Right-ot-
WAY Agent Hunter were with the
commissioners. In the cases of Mrs.
Stalev and Mrs. Lamar the amounts
agreed upon previously were con-
frmed, but we understand that there
was a difference of opinion as to the
amount allowed the Moler heirs, which
has not yet been settled.
The supervisor of the HagerstOwn-
Shenandoah section Of the Norfolk &
Western Railway has received orders
to do only such work on the track as
Is absolutely necessary. Within a
short time work Of relsying the track
between Hagerstowu and Luray with
new S5-pouud steel rails will begin,
and as this work progresses new ties
