President Roosevelt is author
ity for the statement that the
Supreme Court has been wrong
in some instances in the past,
and the Washington Star hints
that the President may pack the
court, "by filling of the present
and another prospective vacancy"
and thus "alter the opinion of
that honorable body" The Star
is good Republican authority, but
what a howl would go up if a
Democratic president had at
tempted to pack the Supreme
Court for the purpose of obtain
ing a favorable decision. These
be strenuous times, my country
men.

1t is strange how some folks
will take a paper right along for
years and glad to get it till you
want them to pay for it and then
they suddenly discover that they
do not want the paper at all and
either refuse to lift from the office
or write the publisher ordering
him to discontinue sending his
publication and perhaps they pay
up the arrearage on it and per-
haps they do not. 1t just de-
ponds on whether they are
honest or a dead-beat.

There has been a big row on
out at No. II in this district over
the school and what teacher shall
preside this winter. About three
different parties have been en-
ployed, two men and one woman,
and the trustees have been chang

scholars have been kept in sus-
pense about who would be on
hand to cut red-brush tor their
daily diet this winter. At last
account the woman teacher was
ahead and the men had liked
out for other fields to conquer.

Judge Dent did nobly in his
home county, cutting down a Re
publican majority of about 500
to a stand off this time, whereas
Mr.. Sturgiss, ran several hundred
behind in his home county of
Monongalia, and even in Preston
and all around home where he
was known the best, but was
elected by the votes and lack Of
votes at the other end of the dis
trict and the farthest away from

known. The contrast is very
much in Judge Dents favor.

Americas is the logical place for the
Third district college, and will make it
one of the states great educational in

The county commissioners, by their
action yesterday, have won the plau-

the county.
When Americas decides to attain a
desired end-she simply buckles down
to the proposition, and thus she is
always winner.

Now that Americas has the Third
