The daily telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1901-1926, 1906-01-26

a Telegram reader is anxious as
a matter of history and information
to know the original boundary of
Harrison county. 1t is a matter Of
doubt whether such has ever been
taught in the schools, and there is
scarcely a citizen in the county who
would not like to know. Harrison
county was formed in 1774 and in
cluded a large area, extending from
the Maryland line to the Ohio river.
Two years later Randolph county
was created of part of Harrison and
in 1893 portion was cut off and
called Wood county. Marion, Dodd-
ridge, Lewis, Richie and Upshur
we're all formed from Doddridge and
perhaps parts of other counties, The
boundary asked for should be by
waters, mountain ranges and the like
and not in such detail as to include
metes and bounds. The Telegram
viii be pleased to publish descrip-
ton of this original boundary, if
there be any one who can furnish
the same.

Lewiston evening teller. [volume] (Lewiston, Idaho) 1903-1911, 1906-05-19

The Los Angeles Examiner. under
date OF Monday. May II. prints the fol-
lowing Berlin dispatch telling of let
tiers from one who saw Christ:
The Orient Correspendex has Just
made public the text Of q letter written
by Publius Lentulus. an officer Of Pom
thus Pilates court, to the Roman EN-
peror, and which was recently dis
covered in the library Of the Lazarist
Fathers in Rome.
II this letter proves authentic 1t may
be considered the most important his
torical document ever discovered re-
garding the personality Of Jesus. 1t
purports to have been written just as
Christ was beginning his preaching
through Judea. 1t reads:
II have learned, o Caesar, that you
desired some information regarding
this virtuous man called Jesus, the
Christ whom the people consider q
prophet, and his disciples regard as the
Son Of God. Creator Of Heaven and
Earth.
1T is fact that every day one hears
wonderful things told Of him. To be
brief he makes the dead rise and he
heals the sick.
"He is man Of medium size. whose
appearance indicates both great sweet
ness and such an amount OF dignity
that one feels in looking at him that
he must love him, and at the same time
fear him.

LAW ENFORCEMENT.

aThere II one great state and ma
tional issue before the people today.
and this II the enforcement Of all laws,
to the end that no amount OF wealth,
no extent Of political influence. may
shield or protect the criminal from the
strong arm Of justice"
tn this the ex-congressman strikes
the key note Of AL our shortcomings ~
people. II we were called upon to
name the chief block upon our nation

fancy say. the reimbursement Of the
laws.
And this 10 not condition peculiar
to any one state or locality. It II uni-
vsrsal in our country, and It's baneful
effects are felt in every corner Of the
land. Someone has said, It II not the
quantity but the quality Of the legisla-
tion that IL desirable. and while this II
true. It IL equally desirable that the
legislation that Ia enacted should be
strictly and rigidly enforced.
There Ii question of ethics raised
Ia the non enforcement OF laws that II
worthy Of the most careful considera-
tion. There IL q baleful and pernicioua
influence In the practice, and the au-
thorities that practice It are reprehen-
sihle for the idea that obtains largely
IN the public mind that where laws are
not enforced It IL because OF official
crookedness and the shadow Of a graft
looms suspiciously over the scene.

NEEDS or FIRE DEPARTMENT..

The experience Of last night in the
destruction Of residence property from
fre that apparently might have been
avoided by prompt and efficient fire
service calls for some comment on the
glazing defects Of the Lewiston organ
ixation and equipment.
The first weakness in the system IL
In the method OF turning In alarms
There should be central fire station
with some one on constant duty, whose
business 1t would be to get the depart
ment into effective action. and when
the apparatus leaves the hose house 1t
Ahould be in charge Of some RESPONSE
BILE foreman who knows the location
OF the MIGRANTS and can go directly to
service plug nearest the fire without
loss Of time or of energy Such an
organization last night would have
saved valuable property.
The equipment to fight fire In the
residence districts on the hill Is sadly
deficient. In an area OF two square
miles there is but one hose house, and
in the best built up sections the hy-
drants are so widely scattered that 1t
is almost impossible to get two streams
to play on the same fire, The need OF
chemical engine TO supplement the
apparatus of the department Is very
apparent, and in this connection the
comment from an insurance man that
the difference in rates alone would In
year pay for such an equipment, IL
very pertinent.
The efficient work OF Chief Lydor
and his assistants of the volunteer de-
partment has saved thousands Of dol
lars worth of property in the past few
Z months, but that there should be i'm.
proyements in the system and equip.
ment is apparent to all who have ta'
ken the trouble to observe the situa.
tion. 1t means additional funds fo
the fire department, but large cit!
win require additional expenditures ii
