MACY
GIVES REASON WHY HE CONSID-
ERS VINOL
The Greatest Health Restorer and
Strength Creator Known to Medicine.

First: Because Vinol contains in a
concentrated form all Of the medicinal
curative elements actually taken from
fresh Gods livers, but without a drop OF
oil 10 nauseate and upset the stomach
and retard it's work therefore, wher-
ever ld-fashioned cod liver oil or emul-
sions will do good, Vinol will do far
more good.
Second Because Vinol first acts upon
the stomach, creates a healthy appe-
tite, strengthens and tonfs up the dl-
gestive organs; purifies and enriches
the blood, and in a natural manner
health is restored spd strength created.
Third Because Vinol contains no in
furious drugs to react upon the system;
you know just what you are taking, as
il is printed on every bottle.
Fourth Because we have never sold
anv thing in our store equal to Vinol to
restore health and create strength for
old people. weak, sickly women and
children, nursing mothers, and to build
up the system after severe sickness.
Vinol cures hacking coughs, chronic
colds, bronchitis and all throat and
lung troubles.
A prominent physician writes "Vi-
mol is the most palatable and valuable
preparation of cod liver oil ever COM
pounded. now use it entirely in some
cases where formerly depended upon
old-fashioned cod liver oil and emul-
sions."

money if you receive no benefit. Rein

Tax Commissioner Appointed.

Governor White has made formal
announcement-of the appointment Of
Charles w. Dillon as the state tax
commissioner, whose selection as the
first tax commissioner of West Vir-
GINA was known several days ago.
This is the place about which there
has been much speculation, and for
whom many have been mentioned.
Mr.. Dillon is prominent lawyer Of
Fayetteville, and has taken an active
part in West Virginia politics. He
was one of the picturesque figures at
the last republican state convention.
THE position is one of responsible
ty", said the governor, "and for that
reason it has not been very much in
demand, although there were quite a
number of people mentioned tor the
place.
The law creating the Office Of tax
commissioner went into effect Novem-
Der 9. The appointment Of assessors
in the 55 counties of the state has not
yet been announced. Under the law
they must be appointed within 30
DAYS from the date the law goes into
effect. Mr.. Dillon has entered upon
his duties, and the appointment of
other assessors will be announced
shortly.

ONE of the REGISTER esteemed
friends in this county, gentleman OF
culture and intelligence, has written
us letter on the political situation
which contains go niue, wisdom we
cannot resist the inclination to print
a part of it. Speaking Of the Demo-
cratic defeat in the late campaign he
says:
For myself, l do not believe that a
party can ever win except on a princi-
pie, fought hard and straight. Cleve-
land made an issue o. the tariff and he
first lost, but taking up the issue the
second time. he won because he was
right. Bryan lost in 1896, though he
was right. He lost second time In
1900, despite his sterling advocacy OF a
principle, because the abundance OF
gold currency made him right in the
ory, but wrong in the concreteA l mean
that il was better for the principle to
be hurt than for the currency OF the
country TO be disturbed in 1900. Ihat
money question being now out of the
way for many years TO come, at least,
if not forever, purity in politics, In adj
ministration, equal rights for all, i'm
nrisonment for those who are Jobblng
with the instrumentalities of govern
ment, and last, but not least, this is
white mans country, are the issues
that should be made, and which, in the
end. will certainly win if they are
fought by an honest man like Bryan,
for the present, at least, as they have
got the whoop on him. In the State,
the party must be reOrganized an eX-
actly straight man be put TO the front
who will fearlesSly make the same fight
that Bryan made in 1896 and 1900 and
that Folk has just made in Missouri.
We may be beaten, but we will come
out of it with self respect and the re-
spect of the country, and it is respect
alone that will cause man to change
his politics.

GOVERNOR WHITE has appointed
c. W. Dillon, OF Fayette county, to
be the new tax commissioner of West
Virginia. 1t is said that the appoint.
ment is made with the approval of
Governor-elect Dawson, under whom
the tax commissioner will serve the
most of his term. The Office pays
$4,000 year, with $1,000 year ad-

ment ls for six years. The commits
sioIer cannot succeed himself. Com
pafatively little lie known Of Mr.. Dill
lon outside of his own county, but he
is said to be lawyer OF character and
standing.
This position is a most important
one, as the tax commissioner has the
appointment of as essors for each of
the ffty-fve counties of the State,
who will assess the real estate under
the new law. These assessors have
very serious and responsible duties,
and unless they are men of character

ficted upon the people.
We hope Mr.. Dillon way make wise
selections.
