In the West Virginia Supreme
Court of Appeals on Tuesday State
Tax Commissioner Dillon lost his case
against Assessors Carter and Baer, Of
Fayette county. The State Commits
sioner petitionsd the court to grant
a mandamus compelling the assessors
to adopt his estimate of the value of
the coal leaseholds of Fayette county,
instead of the amount at which the
assessors listed the leaseholds, about
80 in number, for taxation. The val.
ne placed on the leaseholds by the as
SCISSORS was about 100000, while the
State Tax Commissioner thought they
should be valued at 100000.
The Supreme Court Tuesday handed
down decision in the case, refusing
to issue the writ of mandamus.
Though by the dishonesty of assess.
ors and the technicalities of the law
the coal operators are still able to
evade the payment of a just proportion
of taxes, there is remedy, and that is
to place a tax upon the output of the
coal mines in this State. We hope
that at the next session of the Legis.
lature the law may be 80 amended as
to provide for this form of taxation.

Swiss watches which were constructed

proving every day that it is far superior
to all modern remedies for curing such
ailments as sick headache, tlatulency,
heartburn, poor appetite, sleeplessness,
liver or kidney troubles, indigestion,
dyspepsia, 'cramps, biliousness, female
ills or malaria, fever and ague. No

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infiamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbllng sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be destroy
ed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an infiamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces.

A news item from Moundsville, W.
Va, says that one of the most re-
markable human curiosities OF which
the medical world has knowledge,
came to life at Moundsville Tuesday
night. Mrs. Margaret Cullom gave
birth to twins, which from the waist
down are one. The twins, if such
they can be called, are twins only
from the abdomen up. Below that all
the limbs and organs are such as be-
long to any well developed male child.
Each child is we'll developed and OF
equal proportions and neither has any
more claim to the lower half Of the
body thar the other. The only de-
formity. aside from the dual body, is
dwarf leg which springs from the
hip near the base Of the spine.
Tbe child is possessed of two chests
and all the organs of the chest, two
heads with organs perfectly formed,
and four perfectly formed arms with
hand and fingers like any other infant.
The two trunks branch off independ-
emily at the upper part of the abdo'
men. They face one another squarely
and if they live they will be looking
each other in the face. The child,
double child, or twins, is about the
weight of the average child when
born and is perfectly healthy.
Owing to her weakened condition,
the mother has been unable to give
her offspring nourishment. DR.. States,
the attending physician, administered
to it in small quantities little sweet
ened water and whiskey. The liquid
was taken through both mouths just
the same as though two children were
being fed. The two heads and all the
chest organs and limbs act independ.
emily of each other. One head would
cry while the other one was quiet and
then again they would both cry at the
same time. The voices were slightly
different, one being little more mas
culine than the other. The features
of one head are strongly masculine,
and the other slightly feminine.
DR.. J. ]. States, who delivered the
child, said nothing about it al the time
except to members of his profession.
They all pronounced the infant to be
in healthy condition and none was
so bold as to venture the opinion that
it had not good chance of life.
The parents have been much en-
barrassed on account of the attention
their infant has attracted. They re-
fuse to answer any question concern
ing themselves or the child, except
those asked them by tue attending
physician.
They absolutely refused to allow
one physician to take photograph OF
the child and were careful not to ex-
pose it in a manner that would afford
an opportunity for snapshot.
Mr.. and Mrs. Cullom have been
married about year, this being their
first child. The father is twenty-four
years of age and the mother eighteen.

IS THIS REPUBLICAN DOCTRINE :

From the Fairmont Times Of re-
cent date we take the following par
sgraph from speech made at King
wood last week by Ira E. Robinson, of
Grafton, in behalf of Mr.. Sturgiss.
Republican candidate for Congress In
this district:
sIf your congressional candidate was
a drunkard and the Democratic candl'
date was temperance man. you should
vote for your candidate. Nay, | say,
if your candidate was criminal, aud
the cand idate of the opposition was a
Christian Ccnlleman, YOU should vote
for your co., sressional candidate, for
when he goes to Washington. criminal
though he be, he would vote for the
legislation which you believe in as
good and loyal Republicans.
We have known Mr.. Robinson as
a strenuous partisan, but we hesitated
to credit him with such unworthy
sentiments without corroborative evil
dence, and this comes from the King.
wood Argus, which quotes the speak
er as follows and refers to it as Rob
irson's golden rule:
1T is better to send drunken Re-
publican to Congress than to send a So
Der Democrat"
And again:
at is better to send Republican to
Congress, even if he is criminal, than
to send an honest Democrat.
This is partisanship run mad. 1t
is worse-it is anarchism, it Is dan.
gerous and seditious teaching, it is
immoral and wicked advice. What
strange political doctrine to be preach
ed in this enlightened age We are
curious to know if Mr.. Sturgiss en-
dorsee it. Such expressions will not
help the candidate or his party, and
we predict that it will kill Mr.. Rob.
inson's own political prospects.
The welfare of our country and the
safety of our institutions do not lie
with the blind and bitter partisans or
the ignorant and prejudiced voters Of
either party, but in the sensible, rea-
sonable, thoughtful, independent men
who are willing to place principle
above petty politics and who stand
for honesty and sobriety and charac-
ter in their representatives. We ad'
wise Mr.. Robinson to eat his words
and show his better side to the peo'
pie. We also commend to him the
wise and earnest remarks Of our good
old friend Leroy Shaw, the Republi'
can editor of the Preston Leader, who
says:
while we would be pleased to say
that we coincide with our friend Rob
inson in all his presentments last night,
it would not. in our opinion, be either
to the advancement of the princi'
Piles as taught by the great and honor,
ored leaders of the party Of Lincoln,
Garfield, Mckinley or Roosevelt to ad.
nit that we would vote for drunkard
or criminal, il such were placed on
our ticket, or to the upbuilding OF so
ciety or morality in this great country
of ours to do so, and more than that we
are not going to vote for that kind OF
cattle if we know it, no difference what
ticket they appear on. No, we will
slash them every time, and feel that we
are doing the LoId's service by doing
so. We have enough such men with.
out voting for them to fill positions OF
honor and trust. If our party puts up
clean, honorable and competent men
we should stand for them. Not other
wise.
