Christmas, the time for good cheer

drink. We have the finest wines and
whiskeys in town and the largest

at an estimated gross value of one
hundred million dollars. Incidental
ly, it is interesting to insert here
that during the same year (Ioo6l
the value of horse-drawn vehicles
manufactured in America was esti-
mated at one hundred and sixteen
million dollars, which is illustration
in plenty that the horse has not yet
passed, even though he be passing"
as so frequently we hear.
The remarkableness of this out,
put will be seen the clearer by
glance at the comparative figures of
the number of automobiles manufac-
tured in other countries. In 1901
France built 1911 automobiles; Am
erica in the same year built 3I4. In
1906, as already stated, America built
10000; France built $4,000; England
$4,000; Italy, 10000, and Belgium,
$4,000. These figures are borrowed
from a French statistican who is re-
garded as an authority on automo-
bile manufacturing data, and who, in
addition, claims that, during the nine
years since the success of the first
horseless carriage about 1890, there
have been $4,000 motor cars manu-
featured in the world, at a total value
of one billion dollars.
These figures are sufficient answer
to the prophets that sec for the mo-
tor car only playful or an ephe-
neral career. But the impressive
disclosure of these figures is, that
whereas, in 1901, France, the pioneer
manufacturer of automobiles built
23,3o7 more automobiles than did
America, in 1906 America turned out
5000 more than France. And the still
further impressive element of this
showing is the jump by America from
3I4 cars in 1901 to 10000, in 1906.
This has been done despite the
heavy handicap to the American
manufacturers of inferior roads which
obtain throughout the country, 10 its
national shame--a handicap that con-
tinues notwithstanding the efforts
making for better highways. 1t is
extraordinary how we lag behind in
the matter of road improvement
France has the very great advantage
of having its fine system of roads
under government control, bringing
all highways under a common law,
thus not only making their. mainten-
ance certainty, but also eliminating
the embarrassing questions of Ii.

IN THE OPEN.
Motor Cars as Educators-Road-
Building at Home and Abroad.

The educational value of 'automo-
bile shows is of high quality and
should be recognized for the oppor-
tunity these shows afford the public
of studying at first hand the product
of comparatively new industry,
which is rapidly conquering America.
From a spectacular point of view
alone these shows are worth seeing,
and the considerable item of gait re-
ceipts invariably returned indicates
that the people are not indifferent to
the opportunity. Indeed, that gate
receipts have been sufficient in the
majority of exhibition ventures to re-
turn profit is suggestive OF the
SHOW" element which these gather
ings of motor cars hold for the pop
ular mind.
The Ioo6-o7 exhibitions marked the
end of the automobile as a "rich
mans toy" That was the signih-
cant ICNShdtioll Vi TIC ohoW SSaoOh
which closed recently after an at
tendance and sales OF unexampled
figures. The manufacturers expert
menting period is very nearly over;
so far as radical changes are con-
cerned the trial season is at an end.
The cars of the recent shows demon
strated that the manufacturer has
UNNECESSARILY improved his output
in structural refinement, in finish, in
strength and in simplicity. These are
the cardinal virtues of the automo-
bile; and in the important fundamen-
tai of durability the American manu-
facturer has learned much from the
European. That he has learned it
is evidence Of the Americans alert
ness in sensing the feel of the pop
ular demand, and that he has re-
sponded so quickly is suggestive of
the enormous manufacturing capabi-
litics of this country.
Some Amazing Figures.
The history of the American auto
mobile spans about twelve years, and
its record during those years offers
an astonishing story of American in
dustrial development. 1t reads al
most like fairy tale. In 1901 Am
erica built and marketed 3I4 cars.
In 1916 about $1,000 automobiles
were manufactured in this country

read of the success of the members
of its leading families, though they
be located in other places, and has
ever taken keen interest in the
family of the late Governor Lloyd
Lowndes of Maryland. Clarksburg
rejoiced with Cumberland when he
was elected governor and is pleased
to learn that his SON, Lloyd. is

Lough's wild Scheme.

Editor Lough, of the Fairmont
West Virginian and Member Lough
Of the board of regents OF the State
normal schools. as they are called,
having turned the normal controver-
sy into a personal matter and as
Stunning to speak authoratiyely for
the board, now doubtless sees that
the scheme worked originated and
worked out by him, as claimed by
his newspaper, to degrade some of
the so-called normals in favor of his
home school at Fairmont and the
one at Huntington is not the great
thing it was cracked up to be. On
every hand may be heard harshest
criticism of the beautiful scheme he
takes the credit of having induced
the board to accept, and even the
Governor of the State has been ap-
pealed 10 on the ground that the
schools are what the regents have
made them. and, If they are poor or
inferior, as some OF the regents and
others imply, the regents themselves
are responsible and must be inferior
in their official duty. too, and ought
to be removed.
1t is urged that the regents them
selves are responsible for the char
acter OF the schoolr Be this as it
may. It is a certainty that the re-
gents are not to have their way
about matters Of such wide destruc-
tive effect as Lough's self-claimed
scheme without fight to the finish

Fayofs should be timely.-Aeton.
Osborn for Adiutant General.

Possibly, It has occurred to Gov
ernor W. NJ. o. Dawson that Col.
cuthbert A. Osborn, of this city. is
the proper man to appoint adjutant
general of West Virginia. The Teie-
gram speaks with knowledge. when
1t says that the late lamented adju-
tant general had the utmost CON
fidence in Col. Osborn and between
them there was an intimate friend
ship. General s. B. Baker appre-
ciated very greatly the splendid abil-
ity and strict integrity Of Col. os-
born and were he alive and it de-
yolved upon him to suggest a sue
cessor to himself. he would doubt
less name Col. Cuthbert A. Osborn.
The Telegram has not been ad-
vlsed as to Col. osborn's wishes in
this respect. nor does he know of
this intention to ask for his appoint
ment as adjutant general. This pa
per feels for the good Of the State
and the military service that Col.
Osborn is the right man for the
place. Governor Dawson has shown
an estimate OF him in appointing him
acting adjutant general. Governor
Dawson knows that he fills the bill
perfectly and doubtless also knows
there is no man in the State better
fitted for the place.
Col. Osborn has had a wide and
active army experience. The better
part of his life. though young he is,
has been spent in the militia and the
regular army. His experience has
been greater than that OF many
army men number of years his SEN
Tor. He is loyal to the State and
loyal to its militia. Besides, he is
a splendid young Republican COM
pletely in accord with the State ad-
ministration.
Certainly. Governor Dawson could
do no better for the State and the
National Guard of the State than to
name Col. Cuthbert A. Osborn as
General Bakers successor, IL he
wants the place or could be prevailed
upon to accept It.

For the sake of argument, suppose
the Republicans did have an agree
ment with the Standard Oil Company
something the taxes last year did not
show, and that agreement has now
expired, is that any reason why the
Standard should not have paid the
taxes 1t did or should not now pay
its share? Some Democratic papers
appear to have the notion that the
Standard should escape altogether
the payment of taxes, but the people
of West Virginia think differently
and It is always going to be differ
ent, unless enough people can be
duped into voting into Office some
Democratic hirelings of the Standard
and kindred concerns.

to become a candidate for governor
and eveery probability that he will
shortly put a quietus on all this talk
about his candidacy. He has an
nounced no such candidacy and has
made no public expression to the
effect that he would even accept the
nomination, If rendered him on a
gold platter. There is no reason to
believe that he has any ambition in
that direction. Judge Mason loves
his home. He loves his work on the
bench.
1t is stated that he was rendered
a higher judicial position-that of a
seat on the supreme bench, when
Judge Cox resigned, but it did not
suit him to leave his home SO de-
lightfully situated and so loved by
him, to take up an abode in Charles
ton or any other city. 1t is not
likely the gubernatorial chair would
be an inducement for him to quit his
home. And. so it is that his boom
as 1t is called will be punctured by
himself. before it can gather him up
and carry him with 1t.

Another wall goes up from Dem.
ocratic papers over the thought that
the Standard Oil Company must pay
just proportion of the taxes. The
Belmont-Parker idea still possesses
Democracy in West Virginia. 1t is
in the grasp of the octopus and there
let it remain. as the Republicans and
the people generally of this State
who want fair treatment in the mat
ter of taxation will continue the gov
eminent on the same high and sue
cessful plane 1t has been ever since
the Republican party came into the
ascendency in West Virginia.

Perhaps. judging from the Lough

fish the penitentiary. But, when we
say this we really misjudge Mr..
Powell, and, then comparisons are
odious any way.

LAYING A CEMENT WALK.
How the Farmer Can Do the Work for
Himself.

Farmers requiring walks about their
homes will find nothing so practical
as cement walks-hygienic, because
non-absorbent; beautiful, because uni
form and artistic in finish; durable,
because harder than stone; and at the
same time cheaper than sawed stone!
or any other good sidewalk material.
In many cities ordinances require that
In the better quarters nothing but ce-
ment walks can be laid.
What has been found true in the
city will prove equally true in the
country. Like everything else. the
quality of the walk will depend large
ly on the skill used in the selection
of materials and laying the walk.
The farmer who can find sand and
gravel near, which he can often get
for the hauling, and who could do his
own work at some not over busy time,
would be at no money outlay for the
walk but the cost of cement, which
would not exceed 2h cents per square
foot of a first-class four-inch thick
walk, as one barrel of Portland cement

because of light offerings and local re-
cepts which were below the estimate

were 4l6 cars, with 133 of contract grade.
The oats market was strong on good

ports of damage by green bugs in Illinois
and Indiana. September opened unchanged
