The banks according to their pub

ing ahead in business. Resources
grow constantly and rapidly. De
posts become heavier and heavier.
Certainly the figures recommend
business conditions in Clarksburg
are encouraging to an commercial
and industrial interests in this
community. Financial institutions
in other cities arc growing less in
their finances and business and
same have become defunct, but not
so with Clarksburg. An her banks
show substantial condition, and
other banks are projected. 1t is a
hopeful sign, when banks in the dull
season Of summer just passing into
fall show increase in business over
that Of the busy spring season, and
such indicates a busy fall and win
ter. Considering the wonderful
showing it can scarcely be conject-
ured what a great volume Of bust
ness will be done here this winter.
1t will be the largest in the city's
history. Coming more to the front

ciple Of the city's growth, and there
is nothing on the horizon TO indicate
clouds of disaster. Hope should he.

ed and the hustle Of business will
follow in manner to surprise even

Mightier in peace than all the po-
tentates is the President of the
United States. None dared try to
bring about peace. None could have
done it without resort to arms. But
Roosevelt did it and America stands
more eminently and conspicuously
above it's fellow nations that ever be-
fore. America is to be praised and
Roosevelt adored.

LESS TAXES.

The Wheeling News says the rail-
roads under the new assessment will
pay more local taxes in all the coun-
ties of the state this year than last
notwithstanding they will pay less
state tax. The News appears TO be
talking about something it knows
nothing about. The railroad tav IL
this county will be less than it was
last year, notwithstanding the fact
that the assessment Of railroads was
increased ten per cent.

GoFF FOR PRESIDENT.

Whether there is any foundation
Tor the report that a presidential
boom IS to, be sprung for Judge
Nathan Gotf, West Virginia's most
brilliant and distinguished citizen
and jurist, there is no question that
such a boom would eliminate him
from the United States senatorial
contest. which he has all along in
sisted that he would not enter. Such
an arrangement would please all of
Senator Elsins' adherents, among
whom may be counted Judge Golf
himself, because of the fact that he
has never spoken adversely of Mr..
Elkins or shown the slightest dispo-
sition to oppose his supremacy in.
Republican politics in West Vir-
ginia, and there is nothing to in
dictate that he is not heartily in.
favor Of the reelection of Mr.. Ell
kins.
1t is stated that Judge Golf as
pircs to the Office Of chief Justice of
the United States, a position he is
eminently qualified TO fill. but there
is nothing more than surmise about
this, at least it is not believed to
have come directly from him, al
though cetain state politicians and
Judge Reese Blizzad in particular
are given as authority, when the
declaration is made that Judge Golf
has thai Office in view. and ii IS fur
ther stated that Senator Ell;ins
stands ready 10 start the boom for
Golf for President.
Judge Golf himself is referred TO
as not being averse to such an ar
rangement as it may aid him in OBJ
tanning the goal his ambition seeks.
In other words. if he proves
formidable candidate in tie nomin-

Before the moon changes the
Democrats will likely claim that
Roosevelts part in the peace between
Russia and Japan was because Of
his Democratic ideas. How strange
it is that political party that bit

sumo to attempt to get party honor
and credit from his acts, which s-e
along the same line they were, when
that party was so bitterly, opposing

In less than two weeks the city
schools will have begun. The youth
of the city wants to brush the dust
off his books right away and get
ready to start in the first day. Par
ents should remember that there is
more than a compulsory school law
this time. The child labor law is
going to cut swath this term in the
matter of attendance. Better have
your children enroll the first day
and keep them in school every day
than have trouble. No one wants
to see you in the meshes Of the Flaw.

LIKE A VANISHED DREAM.
The Glories of the Chadwick Home
Have Faded Away.

All the glory of Cassie L. Chadwick's
home in Cleveland has departed, and the
man who purchased for $50, 200 the whole
lot OF furnishings is now preparing to
send away the cut-glass chair and the
perpetual clock and the paintings and
everything else. Before Mrs. Chadwick
will have gone far in her ten-year SEN
tence, nothing will be left in the house
where she dwelt in luxury.
Memory only abides of the wonders
which dazzled staid old bankers into Civ
ing vast sums to very ordinary looking
woman, without demanding any real Sc
curity. Before the gorgeous apartments
were dismantled several photogra phs
were made, so that skeptical persons
might have ocular proof of the peculiar
abilities Of the notorious Cassie.
Of greater interest, perhaps. than any
other is Mrs. Chadwick's private sitting
room. 1t was a dream of gold and plush
and velvet, and figured largely in the
financial operations. Hanging above the
mantle was the oil portrait of ''Uncle
Mason" dear old Uncle Mason with
out whom it might not have been possible
to separate the bankers from their de-
positors' money. SO far no person has
been able to find where Uncle Mason"
is buried or how, after his death, Mrs.
Chadwick received the millions from his
estate.
Some taste was shown in the decorate
ing of the dining room. The cabinets con-
tain positively beautiful specimens of
Tiffany's best work and manufacturers
of Europe. Then there was Mary Chad
wick's room, with paintings we'll select
ed, and dainty bits of chairs that didn't
offend the sight But the bed-that was
a wonder of beauty and massive magnifi-
cence. 1t was of solid mahogany and
carved by master hand. 1t. like the
ether things, has fallen into alien hands.

CHURCH MAY TRY ROCKEFELLER
If Congregational Charges Are Proved
Baptists Can Expel Him.

Under the laws of the Baptist church,
John d. Rockefeller may be placed on
trial on charges of extortion made by
CONGREGATIONAL preachers and If the
charges are proved Mr.. Rockefeller may
be expelled from the Fifth Avenue Bap-
fist church, according 10 a New York
dispatch.
It is the duty of the church, Of its own
motion. to put on trial any members who
have been accused publicly of mlsdeed
of any character. The same obligation
that rests upon the church as whole
rests upon each member Of the church as
an individual.
This being the case, opponents OF the
p,n+ist doctrine declare the members OF
tbe Fifth Avenue church will not be
faithful to the church law if they do not
institute proceedings against MT. Roche-
faller at once. Aside from this, it IS the

coraing to the law of the Baptist church,
