Alarm goods. has established a
branch house in Salem. and a con-
tract with the city is pending for

IMPROVE COUNTY COURTHOUSE.
Estimates VIII BE Made and Bids
Asked for by County Court.

Mr.. Boothy, who erected the Ma
rion county court house, has been
commissioned by the county court to
make a complete investigation OF the
needed repairs to the building and
report to the court what the prob
able expense will be. 1t is then like
lv that the court will ask for bids for
the work.
1t was not the intention of the
commissioners at this time to over
haul the building and make all the
needed improvements, but as there
have been several jail deliveries, 1t
was thought advisable to have re-
pairs and changes made on that part
of the structure. Just at that time
the county clerk asked for more rec
ords and Office fixtures, and it was
decided to investigate the condition
CT the whole building on the whole
theory that it will probably be cheap
er to have all the work done at once,
and that it will be done in a more
satisfactory manner than by piece
meal.
Mr.. Boothy says that the fourth
story of the building, which is unfin-
ished, was left in that way in order
that when additional room was
needed, partitions could be placed
in and a half dozen good offices con-
structed. To make this available an
elevator will have to be put in. but
other than this the cost will be in
significant. Additional room is also
needed by the county recorder.

FAIRMONT, w Va, June S.
Editor West Virsinian-
Dear Sir noticed in your valuable
paper few evenings ago where one
Thomas A. Richardson had been urged
by his many friends to become a can
didate for the Legislature; but after
due consideration had decided not to
enter the race but to exercise the right
that all American citizens have, that
to support another candidate. I would
ask him to name that one man that
urged his candidacy. Now, may be
mistaken, as I have made mistakes
in my life, in the Richardson, as was
told the other day by very prominent
tailor who was mistaken by Richard
son to be Democrat, that about two
years ago he asked said tailor to go
to Warrington and help nominate him
for the Legislature on the Democratic
ticket It could not be the Engineer
Richardson that offered to serve the
FIVE years for nothing, and they
thought him too cheap at that price
He certainly is not the man who ran up
against Boiler Maker Hamilton and
got his nose punched and then went
home and tried to lick his wife. or at
least one of the city papers said 3
prominent engineer did that If he is,
am. glad am not the candidate he
is backing or would, as strict as the
law is, endeavor to buy him of II he
is that man, We can't see why the man
he IS backing don't buy him of This
is one thing We think we do know and
that is this: The railroad boys have an
insurance. for their protection, and we
think that We do know an engineer
that is off on the insurance, passing
cards around, and as a member Of that
insurance association, think we are
getting beat and think the railroad
boys should demand that he be ex-
amined and either be put to work or
lay off like man and not beat the
boys out OF their hard earned cash
Very Respectfully,

thing in the world was ever shown
that the people are for Mt. Hubbard

he was once possessed, he would thank
the people for their support for twelve
years past and withdraw from the

ing to him just as sure as his name

fully as emphatic in favor of Mr.. Hub
bard and Marion would follow in just
as one.sided a vote. The only regret

that we shall probably not get to show

will not be allowed to come before
