Matter of Justice.

1t is nothing more than a matter OF
Justice to the proprietors Of the
Clarksburg hotels to make the an
nomcement Of ten fact that they very
emphaically deny the report that was
started in the Fairmont papers to the
effect that it was the intention Of the
Carksburg hostelries to advance their
rates for the meeting of the Grand
Lodge of Odd Fellows which is to be
held there in November. Some of the
proprietors announce that concessions
have been made In several cases in
stead of advances in rates. We hope
the hotels will appreciate the free adj
vertising that has been given them
through the gratuitous publication of
the story that went the rounds pretty
generally regarding rates. Otherwise
1t might not have been known that
clarksburg owned any public hostel

Time EoR cooL. AEApEpNEse.

Some people are beginning, to get
uneasy relative to what is Ding TO
be done about crossing the river
when the old suspension bridge Is
taken down. Some inconsiderate
folks are said to be talking about in,
junction proceedings to prevent the
taking down of the old bridge. That
seems very foolish. The members Of
the Marion county court are practical
and sensible business men and the
people can count on them to do the
right thing. They are already figuring
on what to. do in the matter and will
take what they consider the wlsest
course. In the meantime the people
must keep cool. Everybody knows
that an injunction would mean delay
and we can't afford any more delay
than is actually necessary. At this
time Of year is the best possible time
to push the bridge work and further
delay will cripple the city. At the
present time two or more factory
propositions are being considered, both
of which are contingent on the com
pletIon of the First ward car line and
that Of course is contingent on the
completion of the bridge. Let US all
work together and be patient. The
old bridge will be used Just as long
as possible and when 1t has to come
down some means will be devised for
conveying the people across the river.
This is no time for grumbllng or
knocking. 1t is a time for earnest,
coolheaded action.

SIZING UP A CROWD.

The lack Of uniformity in the use oil
words descriptive Of numbers is wor
rying the editor of the sistersville re
view. Newspaper writer's are often
called upon to state the number oil
people at a street fight, hotel fire OF
political meeting, and the Review sug
gests scale as follows:
Over 8, bat less than 1O-a crowd.
Over 10, but less than 2O-scores.
over 90, but less than 5O-A myriad
Over so, but less than 1OO-thou
sands.
Over 1000 "A vast concourse.
This list would undergo radical
change, the Review contends, in case
the newspaper was reporting a politi
cal meeting of its opponents. 1t might
then be abridged:
100 or more-empty house.
200 or more-a few stragglers.
500 or more-a lonely gathering.
1000 or more-a small audience.
5000 or more-only the front seats
filled.
