Parliersburg has three Republican
newspapers and each stands for diff
ferent kind OF Republicanism.-Wh
ing Register.
We know of two-the State Journal
and the News--but We were not aware
that there is still another. The Regis;
ter must be mistaken. The Sentinel
is Democratic through and through
unless it has changed recently. There
is another paper called the Dispatch,
but no one would think of accusing 1t
Of being tainted with Renublicanism.
II anything in particular it is a mug.
wump. So fur as the State Journal
and the News are concerned. we con.
slider both as being thoroughly Repub'

localities. Thursday and Saturday,
we're clear and cool. The maximum I'D

from 10 to CT degrees. The mean stem;;I,ssssi

deficient. i. H
Good showers, which We're muchfs
needed, fell during the week, and "a
greatly benefited all growing crops
The cultivation Of corn and potatoes 4
is progressing, but somewhat delayedSi
by the showery weather. Corn has
made but little growth on account of
the cool nights. Oats are very prom;

With all due respect TO the parents
or guardians Of the demented boy be-
longing in the Fifth ward who has
been seen on the main streets of this
city quite frequently of late, 1t must
be said that the public good can be
served best by his detention in some
place place provided for such unfor-
tunates. For years this unfortunate
lad has made semi.occasional visits
down into the city despite the deli
gence of those who would keep him at
home. In recent months these ap-
pearances have become more and
more frequent and 1t is evident that
but one course of procedure is proper,
regardless of the wishes Of any who
may be concerned The officials should
handle this matter Immediately.

Tragedy in City Street

On one of the late gray afternoons
there was an almost unnoticed trag.
eiy in the financial district. The mig.
cons were circling In and out OF the
tall buildings. High above them n
dark spot was swooping in long, EASY
curves. Suddenly 1t shot downward
upon flock Of the pigeons like bolt
from bow, and as It rapidly STONED
toward earth il was seen 10 be a hen
barrier. In its flight it swept under a
pigeon, cutting It out from the flock
and driving 1t upward. The pigeon
struggled to reach a refuge among
the urns that pinnacle the lofty rear.

ed once more above its victim. stoop.
ed again and sailed away with the
pigeon, leaving no sign of the murder
except a few floating feathers and
drop Of red that spattered on the shirt
waist of a stenographer passing along
the street far below. A common
enough tragedy of the air in the coun.
try, but not often seen over CITY roofs

Good Soil for Best Beet Results,

The harvesting of the beet crop is
now on and it is the proper time TO
consider the selection Of soil for the
1906 crop and get the preliminary
work under way, says the Sugar Beet
Culturist, The Importance Of select
ing good soil, and taking the crop up
in rotation is becoming more and
more understood and practiced.
Probably never before has so much
fell blowing been done for the Get
crop, as has been done this fall, and
never at this time has there been so
much sentiment toward growing the
crop for another season.
Many farmers have already selected
their beet lands and Others are debat-
ing which field shall be used. We
say use the best. The beet crop pays
the best and consequently is entitled
to the best because results are what
we are looking for from our crops. The
soil must be in good condition, other
wise the results will not be up to ex-
pectations.
1t is best TO select good, rich, level
ground for sugar beets because the
richer the soil the better the crop,
and the grower will be rewarded for
selecting good soil; then good work is
another essential thing which must
not be neglected even if the soil Is
rich in production, for clean and well
cultivated field is bound to give good
results 1t has been experienced by
growers that If the field is cultivated
and hoed oftener during the growing
season ditrerence'can be noticed by
the rapid growth of the plants. Deep
blowing for the beet field will repay
