with this, however. they have adopt
ed scheme of riotous expenditures
for these postoffice supplies 1t is
said, for instance, every letter box ON
the street corners in the United States
has paid toll to someone, and these
boxes cannot even be painted without
a commission being paid certain in
terested officials.
The result has been that. although
the investigation has progressed
scarcely beyond the initial stages. and
although the postmaster himself is
absent on account of sickness. the de-
partment is wholly torn up. and there
is already indications of immediate
and sweeping changes in the person
mel and excellent prospects that some
men now in the service of the United
States may CONTINUE to serve Uncle
Sam from the wrong side of the cell
door.
Connected with this development is
one also concerning a certain amount
of gross immortality ON the part of
some of these same men, but for the
time being this feature is not being
pressed.
President Roosevelt is appalled, at
the evidence already secured. and
while no charges have been formally
filed against superintendent Beavers.
his resignation after twenty-five
years service is sufficient indication
of the panic in the department caused
by an honest Investigation conducted
by incorruptible officials acting under
the personal direction of the postmas-
ter general and the president.
Mr.. Beavers successor will be a
western man.

AT THE SHOW.
weste rn man

Number 6 which brought the
Lovers Lane'' company into the
city last night was about two hours
late When they did arrive they lost
no time in getting up to the theatre
and hoisting their scenery and unpack
ing their trunks. Manager Haskell
had stage hands to the number of
fourteen to put tho boards in shape
for the eyes of the audience. The
curtain for the first act was raised
some minutes after nine O'Clock.
Then began a very amusing the in
teresting. semi -farcical comedy.
The plot of the play was not deep.
1t dealt with the woes and trials of
young minister of small New York
town where the people spent much of
their time in fertilizing the seeds of
scandal and raising large crops of
gossip. 1t pictured a condition which
is true as life in about FIVE e-siXths of
the communities over the country
where young preacher with new and
up to date ideas stePs into a pulpit
and attempts to brush away the cob
webs of orthodox conventionality that
have been left by his antique prede-
cessor. 1t showed too with what
breathless anticipation an old maid
full and young girl-ful and ambitious
mother-ful congregation awaits the
choosing of wife by the young min-
ister And it depicted their annoy
ance and prov ocation. by no means
concealed, when the king selects a
princess from without his own realm.
The acting of the various parts was
wholly satisfactory. There should
have been larger audience. Every
Brady production ought to draw we'll.

PURE FOOD LAW

The entire country will rejoice II
Congress enacts at Its next session
a pure food law. Such measure
was proposed at the last session,
but 1t failed of passage, because
Congressman and food commits
sioners from different States viewed
the matter through the eyes of
their constituents The Hepburn
McCumber bill, as 1t was called,
did not get beyond introduc'
tion. 1t was antagoniz.d from
the start by food commission
ers of various States, In addition to
those Congressman who thought 1t
against the interests of the people
In their districts, and as the pas
sage of any bill OF the kind was
impossible without their concur =
renee, the measure suffered au early
death. Since that time, the COM

IMPORTANT MATTER

company they are EMPLOYED by,
that 1t Is absolutely impossible for
them to give the boilers necessary
attention. Each and every man
placed In charge of a boiler within
the city limits, should have a license
the same as engineers are obliged
to have on board of steam boats. 1t Is
altogether too serious matter to
place every Tom, Dick and Harry
In charge of boilers, especially
where they are located In thicklv
populated part of the city. The
boilers, too. In many cases In ques-
ton are old, and should for that
reason If none other, be watched
closely. 1t often happens that the
low water whistles are heard for
80 or 40 minutes, which Is
dangerous proceeding. No engineer
or pumper, should be compelled
to look after FIVE or six wells day
and night. There are, however, men
In this city compelled to do 1t or
lack" their jobs. This Is an impo.
sition on the part of the company
operating the wells, and should not
be tolerated by the city council
any longer.
Sistersville daily oil review. [volume] (Sistersville, W. Va.) 1902-1905, 1903-08-25

The council should pass an ordi-
nance compelling all oil corpora
tions who are operating oil wells
within the city limits, to keep COM
petitent engineers at each well
where boilers are stationed. Engi-
neers, or bumpers, are frequently
absent from boilers In their charge
for hours at time. The low water
whistles In some cases give
an alarm, but they would not
prevent a boiler from exploding,
as the engineer Is often so far
away that he never hears the
whistles. This matter should be
attended to by our city legislators,
ere some innocent individuals are
Injured by a boiler exploding
through the negligence of engineers
or bumpers. In many instances
men are placed In charge Of boilers
that have little knowlege of operat'
log them, and the loss of life as a
result, Is no unusual occurrence.
In numerous instances engineers,
or bumpers, are given so many oil
wells to look after by the greedy

OPERATIONS
RETARTED
IN OIL FIELDS IN THIS SECTION
Water is Scarce And inconvenience is
Experienced, Rain Badly Needed

A rain would be greeted with as
much pleasure In the oil fields now
as jump of three or four cents In
the price of oil. Operations are
greatly hampered, and unless there
Is a rain soon. everything will be
tied up. In fact. In some fields
operations have entirely ceased,
and In others work Is progressing
under the most discouraglng
circumstances. Several operators
have called In their men and will
not attempt to do any further work
until there Is rain.
In the Burning Springs field
water Is hauled from the Little
Kanawha river In barrels to pump
houses several miles back from the
river. In the immediate vicinity of
the town water sells at from three
to four cents barrel, and 1t re-
quires about 40 barrels day to
keep we'll pumping, so 1t can be
seen that unless several of the
smaller producers, of which there
are many In the Burning Springs
field, are pumped together, but
little profit IS obtained from pump
Ing them.
Yellow Creek development suf'
fering some, too, but as yet there
has been n, necessity of suspend
Ing operations, though to get water
much inconvenience and expense
Is experienced.
On Standing Stoae operations
are slow, aud there will be no re-
vival until a rain fall. It's the
same all over the oil fields.

a law In which they are embodied.
Several of the States have passed
laws supposed to preven, the sale
of adulterated foods, but In every
case, failure, either wholly or In
part, has been encountered. With
a Federal uniform law In force, the
seller Of diseased mea is and sarded
sugar, or any other deleterious food
product, will not have a market,
and he will have to conduct his
business honestly or quit. Such a
statute would certainly have an
immediate and beneficial effect on
the health of the country, and 1t Is
earnestly hoped tina. 1t will be
among the first enacted at the next
session of Congress.
