When mothers are worried

1t is like the penny in the

because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk Of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is SO perfectly adapted

the rumor that DR.. Burgess had lost
his life In the fire, and come le the
conclusion that such was the case.
az they had failed to locate him.
The incident was seized upon for a
few kind words about DR.. Burgess
IN the FL Paso paper, one pathetic
paragraph being as follows:
Sat the time of the fire there were
many victims who were unidentified

in his profession and a place in the
hearts of those who knew him
DIR. Burgess has decided TO locate

One of the greatest gifts that
nature has given West Virginia is
gas. If this gas was held in the
State for use for manufactures To-
Gated here, there would he added
to our assessable wealth millions Of
dollars. That would not only lower
the rate of taxation, but would open
up opportunities for employment for
thousands of men who are practically
idle today. The time has come
when the farms cannot use all the
laborers, and this surplus must find
employment somewhere. Why not
hold them here? We can by passing

POWER OF OFFICERS.

The complications of the "transi.
tion" period through which we are now
passing are brought on solely by the
officials themselves. Last week, and
up to yesterday, it was impossible for
a young couple to get a marriage H.
cense on the plea that the marriage H.
cense law which is changed by the
County Act was held up by the contest
case in the Supreme Court. Yesterday
a gentleman applied to Sheriff Brown
for permit to change the location of
his business. The Sheriff approved the
application and referred the gentleman
to County Treasurer Damon. The lat
ter said that he was not yet in Office

making body yet we concede that
they have the right to reduce the num-
ber of their employees without the
right of cutting down the pay of those
retained to do the work. It would
have been wiser, had the Legislature
listened to reason, to have cut down
the number of officials and employees,
giving one good man a good salary to
do the work of two or more clerks,
i. e., make the employees do more work
for the same amount of pay; if they
can't, put them out, and then get some
body else who will do the work for the
pay, and we dare say that many will
be found only too eager and willing to
work for money these hard time days

RETRENGRE EENT POLICY,

The scheme of retrenchment now be-
sng inaugurated strenuously by Cover
nor Carter, although somewhat late in
Eoming, is nevertheless welcome and
ppportune. We sincerely believed that
the time to have begun this much
needed policy was when the Legislature
was in session. The Independent
strongly urged the adoption Of such a
course at the time, but no heed was
taken of our arguments, and instead
of instituting policy of retrenchment,
dt was only half-heartedly begun, to
be finally ignored for increasing of sal
aries all around. We then saw the
Hanger we were entering into and now
I'VE are up against it, mighty hard
problem to unravel.

TOPICS or THE DAY.


Mr. Supervisor Lucas is making the
jackass of himself that we predicted
before the election. In his bantering
with Assessor Iaukea at the meeting
of supervisors yesterday afternoon he
showed a leanness Of mind that was
altogether disgusting. He showed
himself to be narrow-minded make,
shift, just as we thought he was. In
other words, he showed that his un.
mentionable was out.

actually in Office.

1t seems to us that in cases OF this
sort little common sense should pre-
vail. When acting upon the County
Bill the Legislature did not, Of course,
apprehend that it would be held up in
the courts at this important time, II
also did not intend that there should
be any disruption of public business on
account of any court actions. Had 1t
done so, it Is safe to say that there
would have been rider in the bill to
guard against any such thing. The in
tent of the Legislature, and the COM
mon sense deduction of the thing is
that the Territorial officers should con-
tinue to exercise their functions until
such time as the county officers had
qualified and had been properly in
stalled into Office. The ruling of At
torney General Andrews to that effect
in regard to marriage licenses is emf.
nently sound In the Kepoikai case
referred to the situation is the same.
If Mr.. Damon is not treasurer-and he
says he is not-then Kepoikai must
carry out such duties as have been
transferred by the County Act to the
county treasurer. That is common
sense. Public business must go on.

cutting down where it was urgently
necessary and where they could get

cutting out unnecessary officers and
of reducing salaries generally, many
