ing revived this week in Kingwood,

persons.
Involved in the line controversy is
/ the famous Fairfax corner, of vast

Light Yield

There is general complaint among
the farmers about he light yield OF
wheat this year in proportion TO the
straw. A number of farmers have in
formed us that their crops have yield
ed but little more than two-thirds the
amount they expected. The corn has
made most remarkable growth dur
ing the month of July and at present
the county has never had better pros
poets for full crop. The hay crop is
the best harvested in this county for
many years.

A New Station.

We are not inclined to take much
stock in the hubbub just now about
the B, I& o. building new passenger
station in this city. We have heard
the report so often that like the cry Of
"Wolf' in the story, it has but little
effect. Thatit is needed all concede and
we are only sorry that there is no law
to compel the railroad to provide a
mere sanitary and comfortable place
for their patrons to wait for trains. We
S merely hope it will come. The present
Id hack is only fit for a cattle she'd.

Fined UniiIstly .

Mr.. John w. Dodd met with an ex-
rorience at Winchester, on Tuesday
thot is hard to equal. Mr.. Dodd went
90 Winchester with Mr.. King the gen.
teman who had the horse sale here on
Monday and when they arrived there
Mr.. King employed the local auctioneer
oonoed BeWen but said he wanted his
own auctioneer and Mr.. Dodd to help
cell the horses. Mr.. Dodd informed
them that they had no license to sell
in the town of Winchester and could
not do so unless the matter was ar
ranged before hand. Mr.. King with
Rowen arranged that the wholesale
should be done on Bowen's license but
as soon as Mr.. Dodd sbegan selling a
friend told him there would be trouble,
and he stopped short. A conference
was held and Mr.. King placed $50 in
the hands of the sheriff TO pay the city
license. Mr.. Dodd already had county
license, and Mr.. Dodd proceeded to
sell one horse. Soon after he was ar
rested upon complaint of Bowen and
was fined $50. Mr.. King promptly
came forward paid the fine and license
amounting to $3.50 and over.
The transaction o. course was legal
but it required an unreasonably strict
construction of the law and looks as If
the city officer wanted to swell the
city treasury. This is not the first time
Mr.. Dodd has met with unreasonable
and unjust treatment from this same
source. A few years ago he took out IL
cense to make sale in the corporation
limits and after the sale he found out
that the sale had been outside the
limits but when he asked for his money
to be, refunded he was refused.

Auburn Shipments.

The Auburn Wagon Works is rapid
ly gaining reputation throughout
the country for the excellence Of its
product has been striking illustrated
during the past few days, when seven
big trucks for use in different sections
of the country were sent away from
the factory here, with 10 moe to fol-
low within the next couple of weeks.
Last week the concern shipped two
huge telescope extension slide trucks
to the Reilly Theatrical Transfer Co,
in New York city; two big platform
spring scenery trucks to the Duga
Transfer Co., Belair, Ohio; one truck
of the same character to the Price I'M
plement Co., GAINESVILLE, Ohio, and two
big scenery trucks to other firms. Th
order for the latter called for trucks 40
feet long but it was impossible to ship
trucks OF this length, and they were
cut down to 3S feet. The other trucks
were shipped in five open cars, being
too large for box cars.
In about two weeks the works will
have completed 10 big trucks for ship
ment to various parts of the county
The Auburn Wagon Works has the dis
tinction of being the only factory i'll
the United States building scenery
trucks, and largely increased bust
ness in this line is expected in the fu-
ture
