TRUTH

ed. 1t is well for his countrymen that
Mr.. Bryan is making these confess
sions in advance of his nomination. If
in the face of his openly avowed
Bourbonism, the Democratic party
dominates Mr.. Bryan in 1908, it will
deserve the overwhelming disaster
which will be sure to be dealt to it at
the polls by the aroused and indig-
nant American people,"
In the opinion of the New York
Sun (Ind. Dem.), which has it's own
Democratic candidate of the dark
horse variety for 1908, "Mr. Bryan
should have remained discreetly out
of the country until the spring of
1908, and his name should have been
kept in the background until the
claims of his competitors had grown
stale and widowed, when there would
have been a possibility that his can
didacy could be forced upon his party
with a rush and a hurrah, as Grants
came within an ace of being in 1880. )"
Truth. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1901-1908, 1906-08-11

The Philadelphia Press Rep) in an
article entitled "The Rise and Fall of
Bryan" says that almost as suddenly
as the uplift came the Decline" and
then adds:
But the very things which make
people conscious that he is not as
strong as he was month ago show
that the elements of his weakness
remain. He could not continue silent.
He could not help repeating his sill
yer heresy. He could not refrain from
declaring that he is more radical than
he was in 1896. These things not only
involve a direct loss, but they change
the moral impression. They dissi-
pate any idea that he has ad-
vanced. with the years, and leave
the feeling that he is the same man
that he was when the country so over
whelmingly rejected him. He doomed
large for a little time, but it is plain
that he has already lost much of his
sudden prestige"

How Dalmatian Peasants Live.

In the interior of Dalmatia the la
borers still live in the old patriarchal
fashion. The eldest male rules the
household az might some czar; in fact,
it is not so many years since he had
life and death power over it's inmates.
When a Sc weds he brings his wife
to his fathers house, that the prop
erty may remain in the family. There,
while he works in the field-for they
are peasant farmers, working lands
held by hereditary proprietors, almost
as might the serfs of Russia-she
tends the dwelling. When his guests
come she sends out not only for him,
but for the patriarch, since he alone
can really welcome a visitor and he
keeps the keys to the shelf where is
stored the gin in which n toast is Of
fered to friendship.

R0BBER
CAUGHT LAST NIGHT

On Sunday night last the store
owned by 3. II. Strother at Wilson
burg was broken into and grapha-
phone, large brass horn and some
forty records for the machine were
stolen. Since then a careful search
has been made for the missing art
icles.
Wednesday at the Long bicycle
repair shop on Second street the
stuff was traced. j. T. Castro and
son, Anninias, had brought it there
for repairs. Mr.. Strother at once
procured a search warrant for the
house of the Castros from Squire
Gordon. It is located on the Judge
Goff farm. Constable Andrew LNon
served the instrument and found all
the stuff in The house. He placed
the two men and. G. NJ. Matheny
under arrest and started back to
town with them. They protested
their innocence, claiming that a
negro had sold them the outfit.
Their tale was than on Monday
night strange negro came to the
house with the talking machine and
said if they would give him his sup
per he would play his repertoire.
They agreed and after he had finish
ed he offered the machine for sale
for $500. Young Castro and
Mathens bought it: Their story
was given very little cfeacnce. Hows.
ever, on HE way TO town the party
encountered the negro and he was
pointed out TO Lyons. He also was
brought along and before Squire
Gordon at II O'Clock WEDNESDAYS
night pleaded guilty. He confessed
entering the store and stealing the
goods. He was held for court. The
negro gave his name as r. B. Gold
en-. He has been here but short
time.

best known citizens of Shinnston.
died at his home ON Walnut street.
Wednesday morning at 6 o'clock.
For the past Two years Mr.. Tucker
had been almost physically helpless
but was not confined TO his bed
only at times. when his affliction
would cause him great suffering.
At intervals he was able to be on
his feet and frequently would yen-
ture up street, although he was ex-
trelnely feeble.

was devoted to his family and made
honest provision for them so long

having died about one year ago. He
leaves also one brother, George W.

WABASH
TO TOUCH
CLARKSBURG

The West Virginia Connecting
Railroad Company has been charter
"a 81 the secretary OF state. The
purpose as announced in the charter
i to build and operate a railroad
commencing near Bclington in Bar
bour comfy, and running thence to
Brown, this county. The authoriz-
ed capital stock is $4,000.
Adyiees have not reached Clarks-
burg from Charleston, where the
chartef was granted as TO the pro-
moters or who they are. Baltimore
q Ohio officials appear to know
nothing about the mattr except that
such charter has been granted, and
ii would seem from this that il may
be d Wabash movement, or at least
company, whose intention will be
to turn the road over to the Wabash,
when tie latter extends its lines to
Mmnington and Pennington in the
near future.
The route to be taken from Bel
ington 10 Brown has not been made
public 1t is altogether likely the
proposed road will touch Clarksburg.
The matter is arousing consider.

WHERE HABIT OF
DECORATIONS ORIGINATED

With the city decorated in hand
some style for the Knights Templar
eonclave next week causes one to
wonder whore the custom of decora-
tions originated. Some claim that
it is Characteristic Of the Italian
cities. That in the time of the
Caesars or probably at a period an.
tedating their reigns the victorious
armies or private excursions into
foreign countries would return with
fine rugs and tapestries and these
would he hung from buildings and
windows for display. Then the
custom became popular for fete days
and eventually spread to all civilized
countries.

CHAIR WAS STOLEN
GIRLS ARE WILD.

Affairs in the county clerks Of
flee 50 far as the feminine clerical
force is concerned are at stand.
still. Not lick Of work will they
do They positively refused to
touch ANYTHING that resembled work.
Those bright CHEEKY smiles that were
characteristic Of that office have
disappeared, possibly for good and
all. And to make it worse it was
remembered yesterday that four girls
had been married after occupying
that chair, instead Of three, as was
first thought. Y
The present force Of Young ladies
was so afraid the chair would escape
that they purchased a lock and chain
and the chair was securely locked 10
a radiator. AT least that was what
they thought.
Some horrid. despieable, con-
Itemptiblc, skulking, tfieving des-
perado or desperadoes gained emf
rance to the office some time during
the night and broke the lock.
The chair was gone when they re-
ported for duty this morning. OF
course Sheriff Flanagan and Deputy
Jack Knox are under surveillance.
Their assertions of innocence have
about convinced the ladies that they
are not the guilty parties and truth
to tell they didn't do it but just the
same they are being watched.
And, another truth to tell is that
we nor any one else excepting the
perpetrators know the identity Of
the rogues.
Just as soon as the loss was dis
covered and that wasn't more than
the wec'st fraction Of an infnitesti-
NAL part of a second. there was
trouble brewing for some one.
The two girls rushed to the top
floors Of the court house. stopping
on the way at the ShcritT's office.
Not clew could they discover up
there.
Down to the basement they tore
and again the search was fruitless.
Again they went in to see the
sheriff. EWe're mad, there's moth
ing 70 it. " 81 won't work until that
chair is returned '1'll quit first,
resounded through the temple of JUS
tice. And they mean it, too.
At 8 o'clock they were trying TO
get in communication with Schrad-
or, the man who owns the blood
hounds at Wilsonburg.
