There are too many idle boys in
Point Pleasant. What to have
them do is a serious question
Idleness hegets viciousness. The
inventive powers of a crowd OF
of young Americans with nothing
to do is. astonishing. A writer
suggests that parents buy or rent
small parcels of land and put the
boys to farming. This would
make them thrifty, self reliant men,
if you give them the fruit of their
toll. The exercise and out door
life will bring them in, in the fall

Germany's Sea Power.


"Germany is not willing to remair

resources in order to place herself
on a naval equality with France
Or course this will mean an addi,
ton to it's navy by the latter power
and necessarily more warships FOL
Great Britain. since it is her poll.
cy to maintain a navy equal to the
combined strength of the next two
grestest naval powers. It is OBJ
vious, therefore, that there is no
present prospect of reduction in
European naval armaments, but
on the contrary a moro active
rivalry than in the past in the
increase of sea power. What ef-
feet this may have upon the policy
of the United States is a question
which may demand serious CON-
sideration. With the European
nations steadily enlarging their
sea power, it is hardly probable
that the American people will be
willing to have their power on the
sea brought to a standstilI."
The gross amount of taxes to be
paid by the railroads in West Vir-
ginia this year will be some forty
thousand dollars less than last year.
The "lease assessments" which
it was jubilantly asserted would
amount to four hundred millions.
the lowest estimate being two hum
dred millions, will not exceed,
perhaps, not reach, twenty millions.
During the campaign 1904 il
was the chief slogan of the Re-
pubIicans that the taxes were to be
lifted from the people on the COR
porations; that oil, gas and coal
leases were to produce the chief
part of the state revenues. Then
the corporations and the GOAL, oil
and gas interests arose in their
wrath and threatened the dominant
party with their opposition at the
polls. Then there were some in
terviews; the Republican candi-
dates got busy; Standard oil ennis
saries were communicated with;
gas, coal and oil men were con-
ferred with; the Republican can
didates began to hustle, and alleg
ed promises were made and denied.
Anyhow. the election went off on
the appointed day. Dawson was
elected. Railroad taxes were re-
duced The tax on coal, oil and
gas leases were made SO insignifi-
can't that they have become a joke.
And the people are as usual left to
carry the misunderstanding

Boycotting the Onion.


There is an organization at Ports

ance of the Women's clubs, snd
its members have insugurated g
vicious crusade against the plain,
ordinary onion of commerce. Being
women. they have naturally gone
to extremes. They have soIemnIy
passed resolutions which say. in
effect, that whereas the onion eater
violates the feelings and sensibili-
ties of others; that the pernicious
practice of eating onions is one un-
worthy of the twentieth century;
that process of evolution will make
these hardened wrstches see the
error of their ways; that to the per-
son not accustomed to the use of
onions as food no PRACTICE on the
part of others is SO Objectionable:
the apostle Paul, in his epistIe to
80 Romans. doubtless referred to
the eating of onions when he said:
eff any man defile the Temple of
God him shall God destroy, for the
the Temple of God is holy. which
temple you are. Therefore. re-
solved: That the onion has no
value as food. that it is 80 per cent
water and wood fibre, which fur.
nishes no nonrishment; that it has
not even taste; that it appeals to
the appetite of only those debauoh-
ed by the sense of smell. Thus is
another of our common idols shat
tered. The eater of onions must
parforce hereafter consider him.

The improvements which are

The improvements which are
being made on the Keystone reh-
merry is almost the building of a
new plant. A crusher. double eff
feet, new vacuum pan, new battery
of boilers, new building, new der
rick and extensive addition to the
machinery in the house, which
will give it capacity this season
of about seven hundred tons per
day. All the machinery has a ca
pacity of thousand tons per day,
and when another mill is added to
the plant, it will be able to grind
enc thousand tons per day which
will make that plant the equal of
st. John and the Billaud. With
a plant of this kind the planters
around Keystone can safely plant
cane and be assured that the re-
fnery will be able to take all their
crop as fast as they can bring it
to the mill. The planters of this
section the coming season will
surely increase their cane cultiva-
ton, which will assure to the Key
stone refinery. full supply of
cane.
