with Waterloo pointed out many weak
points. The chief one was in the de-
fence. This is due to the fact that we
have no second team to line
up against in scrimmage practice. Last
Saturday was practically our first
work in that line. Since our High
school has an enrolment of nearly
200, ana Waterloo only SO, it seems
strange that they have second team,
and that we have difficulty in getting a
first team, to say nothing of Sec
ond. Our city is probably somewhat
backward in its support of High
school athletics, although it is true
that the support which our basketball
teams received last winter was excel
lent. If our football and base ball
teams received the same kind of sup
port, our athletic standing among
High schools would be excellent.
The physics class will begin labora-
tory work next week.

they would greatly benefit both teams.

be followed in our school.

THE POSTOFFiCE SCANDAL.

The scandal in the Post Office
Department is still holding the
boards as the chief attraction in the
nations capital. 1t has grown to
such proportions that some of the
Republican politicians are beginning
10 gasp and TO ask where II sill end
and who will bethe next victim to
land in the tolls. The outcome of
this thing has verified all predictions
anent the rot,enness that would
come to the surface, il it were
pursued 10 logical conclusion.
Ever since the return of the Post
master General. who was paralyzed
by the revelations that confronted
him, he has been doing his level
best to cover up the investigation
and to suppress il.
The top has only been scratched
and the people do not know one
tenth of the corruption that lies
beneath.
More and bigger scandals are yet
to come out, involving officials of
high degree, provided they are not
suppressed by the administration.
1t is not likely that the whole truth
will ever be known for even IL
congressional investigation were or
dered it would be in the hands of
the Republicans who are interested
in suppressing the facts that could
be uncovered. The railway mail
service offers fine field for explora-
ton, and if some of the reports are
true that are openly talked in
Washington, the worst scandal by
Tar has not yet been developed.
The Star Route frauds, of malodor-
Gus memory, would never have been
unearthed, If a Democratic Congress
had not been elected and the whole
truth about present conditions will
lie concealed until the voters con
clude to give the Democrats the
opportunity to clean out the Augean
stables. Fraud and corruption are
rarely uncovered by the political
friends of those guilty of the crimes.
Aside from this there are so many
congressman either directly or in
directly involved that great pressure
will be brought on the honest men
to letu for 'tbe good ofthe party"
The truth will be brought. out only
by the Intervention of Democratic
investigators. The people know
how to get them if they want them.

m the Morgan.own Dominion.

Foundations have been made, and
work is now started on the big car
shops at Sabraton. A little further
up, ground has been broken very
recently for the Penn Mirror Cos.
new factory. This will be ready
for operation next fall.
Passing beyond the Mirror factory
your attention is attracted by the
Pressed Prism Glass factory, Rolling
Mill, Automobile factory materials
ready for erection, score or more
OF new homes going up. Then the
Deckers Creek and West Virginia
Coal and Coke Company's works,
horses. and ovens snd store etc,
present a busy hive of industry.
AT the deep hollow an engine
steam shovel. train of dirt cars and
crew OF operators are engaged in
filling the deep ravinc with many
thousand tons Of rock and dirt. A
msmoth cuivert pipe at the bottom
of the stream indicates that the
york IS being done for p-rinanence.
Also II is To be more than sample
branch road to Masontown. The
fill is to be completed by July rst.
Passing the various stations and
saumills, the Decker's Creek Stone
and Sand works where $50, 900
sand brick plant is soon to be
erected. The train brings you
opposite the little poor sandy bottom
just below the old wooden bridge
across Decker's creek on the county
road to Masontown. Here is
pointed out to the tourist that a
million dollar cement factory, one
of the biggest enterprises of all this
valley is to be located. The cement
rock is here in great abundance,
and all the other resources make it
an ideal place for the Manufacture
of the best cement.
Before reaching the Masontown
station, you pass another industry
OF vast proportions, the mills and
lumber yards of the Huston and
Oliver Lumber Companies. A new
railroad is being built from the mills
to large tract of timber. The
great amount of lumber piled
around here makes the visitor think
he has struck Michigan lumber
camp.
Hustling hack drivers meet you
at the train, ready to usher you out
over the mountain roads to Reeds
vile, Kingwood and Albrightsville.
Every thing is business from one
end of the road to the other.
But they need school. There
are enough children about Sturgisson
and vincinity to keep two teachers
busy for four or FIVE months each
year They have church. Next
thing school house should be
provided.
The ride from MaSontown down
is smooth and free from cinders,
for it is all down grade, and no
firing is required in the engine.
New IS pound rails have taken the
place of the old rails on much OF
] the track.
| Permansnce and business are now
the watchwords along the famous
Blackbottle, and the prediction is
probably reasonable that within
three years you can board one of
these cars at Morgantown, and 90
through TO Baltimore.
