DRUG STORE LICENSE.
At Tunnt lton-To Grant or not 10
Grant is the Question.

There was big fight before the
County Court this week over drug
license at Tunnelton. The town
council had recently granted license
to DR.. A. G. Stalnaker, but of
course he had to also secure license
from the County Court and some
of the citizens who are opposed to
license, were here with a petition
protesting against license being
granted to anyone in the town. DR..
Stalnaker was here with his attorney,
+. +. Parrack and the Mayor of
Tunnelton II. II. Cross, was here
TO defend the action of the town
officials in granting license. John
w. Combs dissenting member, of
the Council, was here with the petit
ton and was backed up by A. ].
Bonafield ex-mayor Of the town who
is fighting the granting of license.
There is no question but there
should he one drug store anyhow in
a town of the size Of Tunnelton and
if the good people up there think
they can stop the consumption of
liquor in their town by abolishing
their drug stores they are very badly
mistaken.

WHO PAYS THE FREIGHT

Several persons have asked US
how the Good Roads people get
their pay tor their work and travel
ing expenses, as nothing was said
about this at the conventions. Any
one who thinks that these people
were doing it for honor and glory,
at their own expense, is badly mis-.
taken, as they get big pay for their
work and expenses. The advance
agent of the show, Mr.. Wellington
+. Loucks, looks after that before
the convention is called for. He
was here and received $3.50 for the
meeting before it was arranged for,
the county paying SIoo and the
Kingwood Board of Trade and
Town Council $50, making sIso
for coming here. This amount
went to the Good Road officials.
In addition to this our people
raised about sroo to pay all other
expenses. A similar convention is
being held for Randolph county
this week, and the following from
the Elkins News explains the matter
OF course every man in the
county cannot come to the Good
Roads Convention here next Wed.

The dead body of William f.
Hood, af townsville, Monongalia
county, was found last Wednesday
evening in field about $50 yards
from the road, on the farm of Dan
p. Morgan, near Smithfeld, Pa.
1t is supposed that death was due
to heart failure as there were no
signs of foul play.
Hood was a we'll known business
man who travelled through the
country a great deal leasing oil and
Goals. 1t is thought by people who
know his usual mode Of travel that
he left the B. & o. railroad at Out
crop and was on his way afoot to the
home of Van EVERY, with whom he
often stopped when IN that neigh
borhood. AS the roads were very
muddy, it IS thought he was walking
through the field to shun the mud,
when he was stricken with heart
failure, causing his death. He
leaves a wife and SIX children and
