CUTTING OFF FORCE.

A special from Bristol says: Coke
and iron manufacturers in South
west Virginia are either reducing
their labboring force or closing down
entirely. Reports received here to-
day fromWise countyare to the effect
that $50 coke ovens have been shut
down at Stonega, throwing 500 men
out of employment, while the Norton
Coal Company has practically sus-
pended its cOking business and the
plants at Dorchester have dropped 80
per cent of heir men.
The Toms Creek operations have
also experienced a reduction in their
force. Coke producers claim they
cannot operate with profit under ex-
listing circumstances. Probably 2, 5O(
men are out of employment.

Former Decision
ReCOnSidered

1t was announced in this paper
some time ago, that the subscription
price would be increased from $1.O0
per year TO $l.50 per year. Since
that announcement was made there
has been very decided change in
the business outlook. Mills and pub
lie works are closing or cutting
down their forces, and money is be-
coming scarce, or at least harder TO
get. Under these condi tions an in
crease in the price of the paper, does
not seem, after due consideration, 10
be wise ut this time. Ii would work
hardship upon many of our old
subscribers, who want the paper, and
many would be unable TO pay the in e
creased rate. We have decided there
fore, TO let the price of $l.00 remain
rs heretofore, with this exception,
viz: We shall not be able TO carry
subscriptions on credit. If the sub
scriber wants credit he must pay the
price of 81. 80 per year. 1t may not
be generally known, that it costs,
at the present prices OF materil, etc.
about $l.OO TO send the paper q
year TO n ubscriber-certainly nc
less. II can be seen readily that we
cannot afford TO carry these subscrip-
tions at $1.00. They should be paid
in advance or else be charged up al
81. 80 per year. Every business man
Will see ut once that this is fair anc
right.
We hope the situation will be ap.
preciated by all our readers, and tha
we may continue To have your sup
port. If all our readers will pay
what they owe us and do so within
the next thirty days the paper will
be in good shape-otherwise we will
be pressed to meet our bills. We con
fidentially expect that every sub
scriber Will let US hear from then
before the Christmas Holidays.

REVIVAL SERVICES IN
POCAHONTAS.

Rev. Mr.. Squires, of Bristol, is
the Presbyterian church at Pocahon-
tas. Mr.. Squires is a strong man, and
much good is expected TO result from
these meetings. This should be pre-
paration for the local option election
soon TO be held In that town. If the
whiskey traffic is good thing for
the town of Pocahontas and the
county and community, this revival
meeting should increase its trade and
efficiency. Christianity builds up
and fosters all good work, and the
preachers, and all good men and
women of that little city, will in
clude in their prayers for the divine
blessing the whiskey traffic, if il is a
morality and righteousness. If this
cannot be done-if the preachers,
good men, mothers and sisters of that
town cannot ask Gods blessing OH
the liquor busiDess-that il may
prosper and spread, then, why, in
the name of heaven, should the bus
iness be allowed TO remain there? Nc
business which cannot be taken tc
church, and heavens blessing be
asked for its continued growth and
prosterity has any right TO live in
any community. Isn't TN is a self
evident proposition? Let the liquor
dealer, himself, be the judge.

WON'T VOTE FOR SLEMP.

/ am in receipt of letter from r.
A. Ayers, of Big Stone Gap, Virginia,
asking me to vote for Slemp. L was
in the convention in Richmond
many years ago when r. a. Ayers
was nominated for attorney general
of Virginia. felt proud of the priv
ilege in that convention of casting
my vote for him. After all these
years, L am sorry indeed to find what
4 thought then true, gallant young
democrat, to be a wolf in sleeps
clothing. j think that the democrats
of the Ninth congressional district
are we'll enough informed to vote for
W hom they please for congress.
Some of us remember of a democrat
doing mere in a republican congress
than the late Mr.. Slemp. We think
the democrats should support Mr..
Bailey or anybody else rather than
Slemp, and unless / mistake the SEN
timent of the democrats on this dis
trict, they will resent Mr.. Ayers
effort in behalf of Slemp.
Respectfully,

GILLESPIE BROTHERS
THE STORE"
COL. BROWNING.

Col. Jas. 5. Browning, of Pocahon-
tas was here at court one day this
week. In addition TO his extensive
mining aud other business he finds
time TO devote TO economic and other
questions, in his town. He is chair
man OF the Anti-Saloon League, and
is interested in the success of the
local option election TO be held this
month, in Pocahontas, and feels GER
tain that unless something unfore-
seen occurs the dry ticket will win
out. The liquor dealers have all the
money they can use, or can get il, it
is said, and will make determined
fight. The dry ticket has little or no
money back of il. The appeal To the
voters comes from the church people,
the wives and mothers, and from "A
number OF the best business men, as
well, and everything legal and right
will be done 10 win out this time.
Col. Browning thinks that not on
ly will President Roosevelt not be a
candidate, but that he will not name
the candidate, and holds the Presi-
dent, at least indirectly responsible
for the present money stringency, OF
which, however he says there is
nothing in his town. Col. Browning
is an ardent Republican, believes in
1.-THE machine, and will, of course,
support Mr.. Slemp in the present
campaign.

TEST OF A TEACHERS ABILITY

IESI Or "A TEACHERS ABILITY
"When teacher says that a pupil
never knows his lessons, and won /
study, it is not always true that the
pupil Is solely at fault" says an ex-
change. Right. A teacher who lacks
the ability tc inspire in the average
American pupil a desire TO learn, is
wanting in one of the great essen
tials of a successful teacher. The
average boy or girl naturally prefers
TO be out of doors, or at some
amusement rather than confined
within four walls with dry text
books. Who wouldn't? The teacher
skill and power comes in, and the
great store houses of learning are held
open with such consumate skill and
cunning and power as TO create a
burning, controlling and moving de-
sire and determination in the mind
and heart of the pupil to possess
himself of the glittering and tempt
ing treasures displayed.
The same is true of the pulpit. A
man isn't necessarily adegenerate who
does not always attend church, or
takes an occasional nap when he
does. SO much depends upon the ap-
petizer and seasoning put in the soup
as to the degree of its incipidity.
wake up the preacher. So, W hen
your boy fusses and fails and rebels
against the whole book business he
may need spanking and he may
not. Investigate his teacher. Hold
a piece of steel close TO him and see
if he draws.

order To get rid of the quill driver.
We learned that Mr.. Ward first saw
the light of day "'Mid the Green
Fields of Virginia, " being born i'm
Tazewell county in 1896, and he is
mighty proud of his state of nativity
and the hardships of early life, nor
the facts that he is confirmed Pam
handle enthusiast has not i'm The least
lesSened his admiration for the past
scenes of childhood days, and he re-
calls with tender feelings the happy
hours spent i'm romping over valley
and plain of good old Virginia.
Mr.. Ward, when young man
came west, going TO Kansas City in
1856, subsequently To Santa Fe, New
Mexico, returning the same year To
the metropolis of Missouri. In 1857
he accompanied General Sidney
Johnson on his expedition against
the Mormons I'm Utah, going as far
rs Fort Bridges, returning during
midwinter TO Fort Laramie, Wyo.,
spending the latter part of that win
tire with the Sioux Indians. In April
1853, he Joined the expedition taking
supplies TO relieve Johnson who was
| fighting the Mormons ms stated. Ar
riving the second time mt Fort Bridg-
es, June Sth the same year during n
terrific snow storm, and the tales of
suffering as related by him were so
realistic we will omit further refer
ence. Having received his share of
life's bumps" Mr.. Ward longed
again To visit the scenes of his early
childhood, but as a matter of fact
there were other inducements that
intensified his desire TO "go back
yonder,' for on September 2S, 1893,
he was united in marriage To Sarah
+. Thompson, who has been II COM
forter To him in his struggle with
life's battle. Shortly after his mar
riage this ambitious young couple
came again TO Texas in 1870, locating
in Hansford county in 1886, and he
has resided here ever since.
For many years Mr.. Ward was
what many called Cow puncher, y
and TO hear him relate his early ex-
perience in frontier life is indeed in
terestiDg. I'm pioneer days buffalo
were almost rs numerous in cold wa
ter valley as cattle, and many have
fallen from we'll directed bul lei
from his rifle. For many years he
was also an extensive cattle feeder
but having accumulated wei
earned competence and feeling tn,
advances of declining years creeping
/ upon him and his wife, they retired
from the strenuous duties OF active
life and moved TO Hansford.
Being of indomitabIe energy and ;
gentleman of-splendid business abili
ty, he soon grew tired of life o
ease and embarked in the grocer,
business, which he conducted 70
several years successfully. But his
ability as competent business mal
drew him into politics and for fou
years he served as county treasurer.
