The hotels are to be commended for
the bounteous Thanksgiving spreads they
offered their patrons, but there was a
feature about them more startling ii it
has any at all. That is why so many ate
at the hotels rather than their homes.
1t is a settled fact that the time was,
when it was not only the pride, but
he duty, OF well-regulated families to
have their own Thanksgiving dinner and
have it at home. We would not init.
mate, however. that those who ate at
the hotels were not able to enjoy fam
lily dinner on this occasion, nor that the
women folk of the household were not
able to roast a turkey. As an excuse
for the departure from ways Of old, il
may be that they merely wanted rest
and outing-a change, as it were. The
signs of the times, however point to the
passing Of the good old-fashioned Amer
lean custom, and we are sorry to see it.

is AHEAD OF
FAIRMONT
In the Matter Of Business, as Shown by
the Annual Report of Auditor for
Post Office Department.

Last Summer statistics were sent out
from Washington concerning postoiiices
in West Virginia, which made the i'm
preston that Eairmont was larger and
livelcr place than Clarksburg, giving the
total receipts of the postollice in Fair
mont last year as a greater amount than
that OF the Clarksburg Office. But the
report Of Henry A. Castle, auditor for
the postolIicc department at Washington
for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1908,
refutcs the statement and places Clarks-
burg ahead of Fairmont. The figures
also show that Clarksburg is the fifth
city in the state in this matter, and
Fairmont the sixth. The following fig
urcs, concerning total annual receipts Of
postolliccs, are taken from his report and
are official:

The Democratic papers are very much
put out over the fact that the leading
Republicans, and especially the organi,
cation, Of Kanawtha county have declar.
ed themselves in favor of United States
Senator Nathan B. SCOTS reelection.
They realize the fact that Caldwelps
own section of the state is beginning
10 show that it is not for him, and this
blasts their hopes that the contest might
make breach in the Republican party,
through which Democrats might slip into
office. 1t will be recalled that most Of
the booming for Caldwell was by Demo,
cratic papers. They hailed with delight
every sign of opposition to Scott, because
they imagined that the strength of the
Republican party was weakening, burt re.
cent developments convince them again
that, when the test comes, the Republi,
cans get together and generally do the
right thing. The indications point to
this course next year, and it is little
wonder that the Democratic press should
feel disappointed and angry over the ac.
ton OF Kanawha county Republicans in
declaring for Scots reelection. Kanaw.
ha county having declared itself in such an
emphatic way, it is expected that other
counties will soon DO likewise, and BY
the time for the election Scott will be so
certain of reelection that he may be
abroad for his health, If he should 50 de.

The necessity of greater and more OK,
tensive advertising in Clarksburg was
never SO great as at present in Clarks-
burg. Within the past year many new
stores have sprung up and been estab-
lished, and many new citizens are here.
The city has grown in every way. Res
idents of Olarksburg are less familiar
with Clarksburg and the population
than of old. The time was when every
one knew even every dog in town, but
that period is no more. Shoppers do not
know the stores like they used to and
it is of great value to them to learn
through the newspapers what the mcr-
chants have and where the best values
can be received, 1t has gotten 80 the
people, and especially the women who
do most of the shopping, read everything
in the newspaper and their eager eye
never overlooks the advertisement. This
fact, when fully realized by the mcr.
chant, will be all the argument neccs
sary to convince him that he must pat.
ronize the newspapers TO reach shoppers
and it is safe TO say that the approach.
ing holiday trade will be larger, if he
advertises than II he does not, and The
results will more than justify him for
the printers ink he uses. The man that
does the advertising this year and has
the goods to back it up is the man who
will get the trade. He must let the pco.
pie know that he is in the city and
that he has the goods they want. That
done, and the people will do the rest.
