~CARNATION SAM.
Reported to Have Resigned Job in
State Tax Office.

Parkersburg, w. Va, Aug. ga
report is in circulation here which is
said to be based on information from
a reliable source, that Senator Sam
Montgomery, who recently was APP
pointed as field inspector by state tax
commissioner A. B. White, has re-
signed his position and will go on the
stump for Charles w. Swisher, the
candidate for governor nominated by
the Swianer republican convention.
1t has been repeatedly charged by
the Scherr faction that Montgomery
was given the appointment as a result
of his desertion from the latter faction
and the Scherr organs throughout the
state have been making tnings rather
warm for him, which it is alleged has
been responsible for his resignation,
said to have been rendered.

WILL PROSECUTE ALL
THE FAVOR SEEKERS
Candidates viii Mot Stand For the
Drink or Dime and Quarter Habit
of Party Heelers.

Candidates for county Offices are
considering the ~advisabiIity Of prose
cutting those who seek favors from
Item in the way OF money or drink.
One of the candidates has taken up
the matter and declares that he will
take the initiative In the prosecu.
tons. This candidate has talked to
a number of others in regard TO all
Joining and putting a stop to the
nuisance, and while all on both par
ties are willing, yet many Of them
hesitate to do anything for fear OF
starting trouble.
One candidate, however, says that
If none of the others join him in the
movement, he win, II the practice is
not stopped, take it upon himself TO
swear out warrants for the offending
parties to protect himself, If not to
help the other candidates. Some OF
the professional ~"bleeders" who have
won this name through their practice
OF getting after candidates every
campaign for years, may find them
selves in trouble.
This candidate, as have others, has
refused to grant favors to any one
who asks them. 1t is a violation of
the law for a candidate to give away
beer or money other than actual ex-
penses, and the person accepting the
favors from a candidate is equally
guilty. The law is very plain and a
penalty is attached including
a Jail sentence.
This one candidate, who is willing
to take the initial steps b. bringing
up persons who ~vialate the law by
asking for beer, is anxious to make
example of some one. He says
he will be required as we'll as an
others, to file a sworn statement after
tine election as to what money he has
expended, and he proposes to do so.
The professionals" and others have
Dother1ng the candidates on
both tickets. 1t was started long be-
fore the primory Of either party and
is still being kept up.
The candidates being limited to the
expenditure of a certain amount OF
money in the campaign under the
law, they cannot afford to listen to all
of those after them seeking fayors.
Candidates for years have been sub
iect to much bleeding" and the ar
rest of a few of those who make a
practice of getting after them may
put a stop to the practice.

DARING ROBBERY
SATURDAY NIGHT

stole TWO Dollars From Mrs. Grover
Welty on North High street-Ran-
sacked Clothes Press, But Secured
No Other Booty-Men Away From
Home Gave Robber Good Chance,
A daring robbery was committed on
Saturday night at the home Of Edward
Welty and brother, Grover Welty, 902
North High street. Both men work ON
the railroad at night, consequently
were away from home at the time.
THE two Mrs. Welty were sitting on
the front porch talking, and while
thus engaged a thief quietly opened
the shutters of the kitchen window
and climbed into the kitchen, the
window having been left up. Once
inside the house the thief slipped up
stairs and entering a bedroom, stole
two dollars belonging to Mrs. Grover
Welty that was in a glass on the bu.
reau.
About $3.50 Mrs. Edward Welty took
her baby upstairs to bed. When she
entered her bedroom she noticed a
lot of clothing, etc, scattered on the
floor and upon investigating, found
that the clothes press had been ran
sacked. She suspected at once that a
robber had been in the house and
went u into the hallway TO call her
sister-in-law. AS she did so she saw
a man hurrying down the steps, but
could not tell whether he was white
or black, the light being dim. Ii is
supposed that the thief escaped NE
same way he entered the house.
The women were too much fright
ened TO stay in the house and went to
q neighbours where they remained till
the arrival of their husbands early
Sunday morning.
So far as is known nothing was
taken but the money. There is no clue
to the rotber, though he must have
known that the men OF the house were
away at the time.

EIGHTH TIME STORE
HAS BEEN ROBBED
Johnson, Roderick and Bragg Ac-
cused of Burglary at Shenan-
doah junction.

Arrests following toe robbing of
the store of l.. j. Shirley at Shenan-
doah Junction, Monday night, were
made in Charles Town by the officers
when three men named Roderick,
johnson and Bragg fell into the
clutches of the law.
About / o'clock Monday night Mr..
Shirley was awakened by the ringing
of the burglar alarm, which is con-
nected from his store to his house
nearby. Hurrieily dressing, he went
to the store and, after looking
around, discovered no one, He re-
manned there until 3 o'clock, when he
returned home. About 4 o'clock in the
morning the night agent at the rail
road station heard some n trying to
again enter the store. The proprietor
was at once aroused and as the two
approached the store they saw three
men running away, all of whom they
recognized.
The arrest of the men, who reside
in Charles Town followed. Mr.. Shir-
ley seems to be very unfortunate, as
this is the eighth robbery that has
been committed ~ithin the past sew
eral weeks. The only booty the rob-
bers secured were three pairs or
shoes.
