SIDEWALK PENClLINGS
Want. Students to Pick Cotton.

Mir. s. A. Cunningham, editor of The Confederate Veteran, of Nashville, and one of the best known men of the Souh. has written letter to all the Governors of cotton States urging them tn suspend the schools of the state for several weeks. in order that the great amount of cotton now in the field can be picked without total loss.
 Mir. Cunningham. like all other trav- cl"rs who have, gone over the south. has been greatly impressed by tn. planers now find themselves, with great quantities of open cotton in the field and no labor with which to pick |; out
 Mir. Cunningham's letter follows:
 My Dear Sir-Pardon the liberty l take in addressing you Circumstances have caused me to travel. within less than two weeks, almost entirely across the cotton belt of the South, and have found cotton conditions so alarming everywhere that l feel impcted to try to sound a warning through most in hucntial sources and to suggest the best, if not the only. possible remedy. The immense draft of laLorers from the farms by improvements in cities ana the building of .,t;tn steam and electris dS rainy weather, have delayed the pick ing of cotton so that 1t seems impossi- ble to save it except by united e6ort desire to make is the suspension u: public and private schools for several weeks, and that all school children be urged to help save the cotton with Urge farmers to pay the highest prices and appeal to parents of wealth as patriotic duty to induce their children to fiolp save the cotton. It is con dition as seriously three tening as If our cities were on fire; it is indeed ap- palling. Every Southern triot should co-operate in saving the millions and millions of value in cotton that may be utterly ruined before it can be saved by the usual methods"

You know the President announced some time ago he would give out list of modern- be used in every branch of United States Government correspondence.

the country stood in fear of Bryan
ism and socialism, scores of thous-
ands of men we're walking the
streets of the great cities looking in
vain for work and compelled to re-
sort to soup houses and free lodging
houses for food and shelter. To-
day, in spite of the fact that the
country, in the last twelve months,
has absorbed more than a million
Immigrants, from the grain fields of
the West and the cotton fields of the
South to the factories of the North
and New England, the cry goes up
for more men. In spite of The enor-

for thousands of miles of double

the addition of tens of thousands of
cars to their equipment, their facil-

PROSPERITY GROWS.

Never in the history of the Unit
ed States has there been such a high
degree of general prosperity as in
this year of Our Lord 1906, when
the people of the country are reap
ing the harvest of ten years OF un-
interrupted Republican control of
every department of the National
government. The statistical reports
of the government, the reviews of
commercial conditions published by
the mercantile agencies and trade
newspapers all bear witness to the
fact that the wonderful tide of pros
perity that began to rise in the
United States on the morning of the
day when William Mckinley was
elected President has not yet reach
ed its height, but is still sweeping
onward and rising still higher as it
advances. There is no line of bust
ness which has not felt the revivify-
ing effects of public confidence m
spored by a knowledge that the adj
,,,--.--.,-.1 rttiiye and legislative branches
of the government are IN 7tffe-e oItr61
of men committed to those policies
that have placed the United States
far in the lead of every other nation
of the world in the production and
consumption of those commodities
that are necessary for the comfort
and enjoyment of mankind.

ATTRACTING ATTENTION.

West Virginia is able to attract
attention now on almost any sub
iect and politics is no exception.
The following, illustrating this, is
from the Philadelphia Press:
'"The Democratic party of West
Virginia is not a two-cen ts-a-mile
affair Tn the State convention a
resolution committing the party to
legislation limiting the mileage rate
was voted down. The argument
was That West Virginia wants all
the railroads it can get. and if two
cents-a-mile law were nacted the
railroads would not come there, and
the industrial development of the
State would be forever arrested.
This is not a. new claim, but until it
struck West Virginia nobody has
been able to make n congressional
convention stand still with it,"
The daily telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1901-1926, 1906-08-30

Tn all the discussion about the
Democratic congressional conven-
ton here oversight has been made of
what can be properly termed a jest.
1t was a resolptior adopted fnstTtIRta
~! the committee on resolutions to
bring in report that the Demo-
cratic party run Bryan as a candf-
date for President as long as there
was breath in his body. The con
Yention by passing that motion did
not signify that it ever wanted to
see him elected President. All it
wanted to do, according to the mo-
ton adopted, was to have him as a

candidate. The inference is the
convention did not want to see him
President, or it would have changed
the motion so as to read they want
ed him TO be President. Sometimes
in thinking about it, we are inclined
to believe they meant to poke fun at
Bryan. Certainly, there was moth
ing in the motion to indicate that
they really wanted him to be Presi-
dent. Perhaps, they recalled that
he sought the Presidency over
dozen years and meant to convey the

idea that that was long enough for
any man to chase it. At any rate it
is questionable as to whether they
paid him compliment in the adop-
ton of that motion, and they may
feel assured that nothing
will more please the peo-
pie in general than for them
to have him a candidate all the time.

Died From LOckjaw.

Arthur Lewis, the little son Of Mr..
and Mrs. Harry Lewis, of Harper 8
Ferry, died from lockjaw Tuesday
morning in Shepherdstown at the
home OF his grandparents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Thomas W. Leggett. The child,
who was nine years old. had been in
Shepherdstown for visit to his grand
parents. On June Cd, while playing
in the street with a little wagon, be
fell under DR.. NJ. II. Crawford's farm
wagon, which WIS heavily loaded, and
one wheel passing over his foot badly
crushed the heel. A physician was
summoned and the wound vas dressed,
and the little fellow seemed to be get
ting along fairly well. Last Friday
symptoms of lockjaw appeared, and
soon atterward the boys jaws became
tightly locked and commissions set in.
He suffered greatly until Tuesday,
when death came to his relief. He
was bright boy. and his sad death
has caused much regret.

ELAVORS
Il OR WHAT
Flavors Are For.

Flavoring extracts are added to
food in order to make the food more
appetizing. Appetizing food is apt
to digest better than the other sort,
and hence the right sort of flavor
adds nutritious value. Cheap and
artificial havors always lack the
delicate, appetizing quality of the
genuine kind and, in addition, are
apt to be directly harmful. Such
favors are sold more often than you
think. 1t is probable that nine
tenths of the Vanilla is either who'll
ly or partly artificial.
We make line of pure flavoring
extracts from selected material for
those people who appreciate the
best. While the first cost of these
may be a trifle higher than that Of
fraud flavors, they are really cheap
er in the end, because they go far
ther and they do good instead of
harm.

Stormy Times.

Stormy Times.
Very threatening storms passed
over this section last Saturday and
Sunday, but luckily no damage was
done in this intermediate neighbor-
hood. Sunday evening a cloud how
cred over town like giant umbrella,
and a good shower leaked through, ac-
companied by some hail-not enough
to hurt, though. A fierce fall of hail
in Frederick county, Va, last Satur'
day did much damage, knocking fruit
from the trees and running the wheat
on some half dozen farms.
Last Sunday evening Joseph Poffen-
berger, who lives two miles south OF
Boonsboro, had a frightful experience.
He was taking his horse to pasture
field. riding one of the animals. while
two were in front of him and three
were behind him. A bolt of light
ming killed the two in front and
knocked down the three behind. Mr..
Poffenberger luckily escaped tn
shock, though he was badly scared.
During thunder shower that pass
ed over a section of the country about
Leetown Sunday week, lightning
struck a tree near the farm buildings
of A. B. Hurst. William Hurst was
sitting on the porch of the dwelling
house at the time the lightning struck,
and a pair of tan shoes worn by him
were peppered over the surface with
small holes such as would be made by
perforation with hot needles. The
shock affected Mr.. Hurst very little
none at all. in fact, except the shock
due from the sudden loss of pair Of
summer shoes.
