The telegraphIc news from Wash
ington about the fifteen million dol
lar surplus in the national treasury
seems to greatly agitate a number of
Democratic newspapers and they
have already devised several ways of
spending it. Some of them are hor-
rifed at this unhealthy surplus be-
cause they fear that the nations
money will he taken out of circula-
ton If there is one. One way the
Democratic papers would have of
getting rid of the surplus is revision
of the tarfff. II the Democrats have
their say about revising the tariff in

Certainly be no need to worry about
a treasury surplus. The anxiety

However. there is a lot of necessary
work that Congress has to look af-

John d. Rockefeller and his six
associates who control the Standard
Oil Company have at last actually
been served with subpoenas to ap-
pear before the United States Court
in St. Louis to answer to the charges
that they have been violating the
antitrust and the interstate COM
merce laws of the nation. This
looks like the department of Justice
means business in the investigation
of the suspicious long entertained
about the oil octopus.

There b no neeessity % Clarks-

There is no necessity for Clarzs-
burger to get on a train and go to
one of the big citiesto do Christmas
shopping. There are plenty of
things right in the Clarksburg stores
for people to buy for holiday pres
ents. In fact, there is everything
here that a person could want. BY
staying at home railroad fare can be
saved and thus more money can be
had to expend in the little gifts that
make the hearts of the recipients
glad in the gift making season.

Clarksb,nrg Ahead.

Fairmont is doubtless good
place. No one questions that state
ment. But. Clarksburg Is better
place. Most people nowadays Judge
city or town by it's Industrial activ-
ity. and it is right they should, for
work. manual or mental is what
makes a city. The scriptures teach
that man must earn his living by the
sweat Of his brow. and the more Nv
ing that is earned certainly the bet
ter.
To return to the immediate sub
iect, however. there is a we'll ad-
vised publication that gives Clarks-
burg and Fairmont their just dues
in conservative manner, and we
find in that conservative description
of the two cities that Clarkshurg is
far in the lead as to the two places
mentioned This formation, which
is sent out broadcast is correct, for
1t is based. the Telegram believes,
on a thorough and exhaustive in
vestigation of the subject.
We find by comparison that the
duplication herein referred to. says
the principal industries of Clarksburg
employ over three thousand persons.
while the principal industries of
Fairmont employ barely thirteen
hundred men. In other words, ac-
cording to these figures. Clarksburg
is two and one-third times in i'm
portance to Fairmont, so far as in

Democratic papers, now that there
is no campaign on, are acknowledg-

to the right, though it is quite late.

HELEN NoRTE, QUEEN OF The TURF
Homer Rutherford, in Charge Of
Brents Spring, Predicts Great
Things for Speedy Mare.

Homer Rutherford, in charge of the
Brents stable of horses at Los An
geles, has written Judge Brents that
he believes that Helen Norte will be
crowned queen of the trotting turf
this season. The speedy little mare,
which made a mark of 2.09 last sea
son. is showing up fine in her spring
work and Rutherford predicts that sn..
will make a mark of 2.05 or better
this summer
Helen has taken on considerable
weight the past year and, to use Ruth
erford's expression, looks as big as a
dray horse and is almost as strong.
Spring work has started and Helen
and her little sister, Reina Del Norte,
are being gradually rounded into form
for the spring and summer campaign.
Reina, who is just turning two years,
has already trotted quarters in SO Sec
onds and in eighth spurts has shown A
2:2S gait. The little mare is entered
in a number Of two-year-old events and
Judge Brents is predicting great
things for the youngsters under Ruth
erofrd's care.
