5OOPERcHOF STONE GIVEN
Farmers Along Riley's Ford Road
Donate Material for Fixing.
ARE PLACED ALONG ROUTE
While Merchants Raise Money to
Save Souls Farmers Place Stone
to Improve Roads.

10 improve FhSo1S@
The citizens have been so interest
ed in the Y. M. c. A. project that the
good roads scheme has dropped into
the background insofar as they are
concerned. That has not been the
case with the farmers, however. Those
who live along the line of the route
are very much alive. They wish
their roads improved and are willing
to pay the price.
The recent heavy rains with the
consequent mud have done nothing to
lessen their convictions on that head.
So while the merchants have been
raising coin to save the souls Of young
men the farmers have been placins
stone along the Riley's Ford road with
which to save wear and tear on the
physical beings of man and beast.
This is the old Charles Town route but
the people living along it feel that it
should be fixed. They are willing to
do their share. 1t is said that 500
perch Of stone has been placed If the
merchants of Martinsburg and the
county court will do their share 1t is
likely that the next three months Will
mark a decided Improvement in the
roads about the country.
Some Figures Shown.
That the proposition that the high
ways should be improved is meeting
with general favor among those living
along the routes to be improved and
also among the bushes men of Mar
tinsburg is shown by the following
petition which is being circulated now
among the business men. 1t shows
that the sum of $49O has been sub
scribed
A good start has been made and it
is likely that the end of summer will
see the farmers turning their faces
toward Martinsburg when they think
of buying or selling instead of toward
Shepherdstown as is the case at
present. Good roads are a valuable
asset to a town and the business men
Of Martinsburg are awakened to the
fact,
The petition with amounts sub
scribed to date is as follows:
Martinsburg, W. Va, June, 1904.
To the Resident Taxpayers Along the
Schopperts Ford Road:
We. the undersigned, being DESTROYS

Hemlick, of Rudolph county, is Pro.
hibitionist He has absoluteIyrefused
to receive any money for the state
from liquor licenses or to receipt fm

AS Randolph county is a wet coun-
ty, and as saloonists at Elkins took
out licenses before the county court,
and presented payment at the sheriff's
Office, where the money was refused
there is in consequence a bad contro-
versy, and a peculiar mixup.
Court proceedings have been
threatened, forcing the sheriff to
comply with the statute, but he has
stood pat.
Assistant Tax Commissioner Darst

We hope none of our friends will take
offense at our rule that all political an

sometimes jump into campaign for
the sake of a little notOriety and then
drop out, leaving their newspaper and
