The article in the Peoples Forum
yesterday in reference to the action
that should be taken in remedyinG the
condition of affairs as brought about
by the emptyinS Of 4 sewer into Coal
run just above the railroad culvert
is timely one and one that should
be looked after by the proper authori-
ties. The article is not overdrawn.
The accumulation Of excrement and
filth is so great and the fetidness is
so strong that people living near by
have to keep their doors closed to
escape the offensive doors arising
therefrom- There is no economy in
waiting until the whole town becomes
infected from the neglected spot
1t should be cleaned out now, so that
the town may escape the scourge Of
typhoid fever that IS sure to come if
it is not done

REQUEST OF THE MAYOR.

To the citizens Of Fairmont:
desire to call the residents and
property owners attention to some Of
the provisions of the city laws con-
corning sanitation and cleanliness
generally about the city
1. The streets Of our little city
must be kept clean, and to do this a
great deal of the city's money IS eS-
pended but however diligently our
street force may exert itself, the
streets can not be kept clean unless
the residents will refrain from throw
ing rubbish, etc, upon the streets
. All premises must be put and
kept in clean and good sanitary con-
dition. It has been the duty OF the
sanitary officer to inspect all premises

posed.
Mr.. II. E Fetty. a wen known and
prosperous farmer Of old Monongalia
county, proposes a new enterprise for
Rivesville and offers the round sum OF
five hundred dollars TO help start the
enterprise, which IN short means a
process to benefit the worn out land
or soil in this country of which there
is no little amount as all are fully
aware
Mr. Fetty has just finished unload

manufactured as we understand some
where in the State OF Maryland The
cost Of Shipping to Rivesril1e was
$500. He sold the lime TO the farm
ers at. so cents per hundred pounds.
at the station.
1t is said by good authority that
4 hundred pounds per acre viii do
wonders. if properly administered to
the poor soil and instructions carried
out in the future, but let it tie as it
may, the generality of farmers know
what good. strong lime viii do for
poor worn out soil.
So Mr.. Fetty proposed the above
and others Joined in by saying that
they would take stock in the enter
prise but did not name the amount.
The proposition is to find a good lime
test at the experimental station at
Morsanown then get the machinery.
build the furnaces and simply make
the lime, and any farmer Of ordinary
intelligence knows the rest, if not
he isn't much Of a farmer
The people of this section think Mr..
Fetty'S proposition very cred1table
and the next thing is to see how many
will join him in the new enterprise
The reason Rivesville was named as
as a suitable place was because it is
accessible to both river and railroad
and coal mines and to tell the truth
it is accessible to some soil that
little good strong lime would not hurt.
Another thing we have tae lime stone

feet deeper in some parts. 1t IS to be
hoped that the farmers will consider
the matter and at FEAST encourage the
newly proposed enterprise and give
home talent a helping hand in place
of sending money out OF TIE country
when it could be kept here and the
same benefits derived therefrom di-
rect and many more Indirect
There is no sensible reason why there
could not be manufacturing eStab-
lishment in this section to enrich the
soil of our country as well as to de-
pend on other places and it surely
is an oversight of the enterprisinS
men of the country
There is no reason why Marion
county could not ship lime to Mary
land as we'll as send money over
there when there is Just as good mate
rial here as there or anywhere else
The writer will close the subject
for this time and call it an oversight
of the enterprisinS farmers, that it
has not been taken up long ago.

"NAME YOUR MAN"

Until the opponents Of Senator Ell

1T seems very foolish for Republican
papers to be bounding our senior rep
sresentative in the upper house OF
Congress. 1t only Injuries the party
and does no good to any one If
man as worthy and as capable as Sen
ators Elkins can be found to enter the
race, the West Virginian is in favor
of his having fair nsnt, not on Sena-
tor Elkins' supposed shortcomings,
but upon his own merits. Until such
man comes upon the scene, however,
the West virginian stands for Senator
EIkins, and we really can't see how
any Republican newspaper can CON
.sfstently do anything else There are
"a few people against Senator ElAns,
hut they do not seem to be for any
body else and so long as that is the
condition, they are simply knockers
and not entitled to any particular con

vice to these dissTuntled fellows Is
either to get together and put up re-

else quit carrying on mudslingins

injury to the Republican party II

Ez Who's Road Is This?

1t is beginning to look as
though the attakapas ls to get
some railroads. SO many, in fact
that we editors are kept gessing
as to which is which.
The n. o. States says
A new railroad, it is stated,
will be built into New Orleans
consequent upon the transfer to
Mr.. &. r. Ash of Duluth, Mimi,
Of the John Il. Gheens plantation
and timber land holdings La
fourche parish.
The road will run from Morgan
City, and be about 100 miles in
length. 1t will pass through a
ter, tory which is repu'ed to be
fertile and productive as any in
the state. The route Of the line
is said to he down Black bayou
from Morgan City, through Ter
rebone parish to I'afouTche, and
thence through Jefferson parish
to New Orleans. 1t was stated
here that last week there had
been an estimate of the value OF
the timber in the Gheens tracts.
These comprise about "a, 1000 acres
$500 of which are under cultiva
ton. The land is for the most
part thickly covered with fine Old
cypress trees. aud it is said whcI
these are cleared there is no fnel
agricultural country in the South
The Gheen deal was for $500, O,OO(
and after its completion the Bowi'
Lumber Company took over th'
timber. Ii is said to be people
who are allied with This cOrpor
alton that will furnish the capita
for the new line.
Railroad men here say thi
road would be an excellent invest
ment, since they estimate tn
contiguous territory to be as tic

CHIEF OF POLICE
Felix N. Mestayer Resigns
to Accept Position with
Texas Sugar Co.
Took His Depai ture on Wednesday
for His New Field of Duty.

There is vacancy in the office of
Chief of Police of this city. Mr..
Felix N. Mestayer rendered his
resignation to the Mayor in order
to accept position with a sugar
Company at Sartarcia, near Sugar
Land, Texas. He left on Tuesday
for the scene of his new duties.
In discussing these matters with
Mr.. Mestayer lie said that he
thought he was acting for his best
interest in taking this step. He
saw no future here for himself
At one time he entertained hopes
that the office of Chief wonld lead
to higher and better Office, but
later his views had changed AMI
he was satisfied that promotion
was an exceedingly remote pOssi-
billty.
In his new field of labor he felt
confidant that efficiency, energy
and capabiIity would win better
things than he wOuld start ont
with; aud with this view ahead he
had been prompted to accept the
proffered position of assistant
10 anager. His family Will remair
here for the present-at least til
lie is fully sa'is fled with surround
ing conditions where he woul'
make new home for them.
Mr.. Mestayer made an eflicien
, and conscientious officer during
t the time he held the position. IL
: has been generally recognized a
0 such by the business people Q
i this city The feeling of regre
is, therefore, quite general at lo'
: ing him. The cordial and SINGER
y good wishes of all go with him il
q to his new field of employment.

The City Council has taken no
definite step in filling the vacancy
in the police corps. Il is under
stood that they will not act imme-
diately. A successo will be Sc
lected but every effort will be
made to get the best available
man tor the position
