do Magisterial district is carrying
out the spirit of the school law, in
putting iuto operation graded
school, now. The sub-district schools
have been In operation long enough
TO supply material for higher
grade of school, if they are ever
going TO do il.
The state. at large. demands
that her children must have the
benefit of a practical education.
The wheels of progress are In mo
ton and we are wise if we z t into
the procession. The old jugger.
naut of ignorance has too long been
crushing out the mental aud spirit.
ual life of the majority OF our
children, and it is highly proper
that the mind and soul OF the
youth of our country receive
liberal instruction.
The time has come when the
rural districts can reap the advaD.
tage of corporate wealth.
The great railroads, pipe lines,
manufacturing industries, etc. f,
are lifting the burden of taxation
from the shoulders of the farmers
and making it possible for the
country people to establish and
maintain graded schools.
Why. it will be within the bounds
of reason to state that if the good
citizens of Ceredo district uphold
the hands of their board OF educa-
ton, and rally TO the support of
their graded school, they Will find
that the market value Of their SUI
plus real estate, in that district will
bring % per cent more money, per
acre, than they have been getting
for it, of late; and if they fight
progress and lapse into the old rut
again, no intelligent family will
seek home in their midst.
| repeat, the board IF education

ceeded the letter of the law In some

EDITOR ADvANcE:

10 4tH, III lnl- interesting becllOn oil
the Twelve Pole valley.
AT Buffalo creek station, gong
west about one fourth of mile, up
the beautiful Buffalo creek valley,
we came To the new graded school
building, erected bv the board of
education of Ceredo Magisterial
district, (for the benefit of the
school children living outside Of
the Independent school district Of
kenova and Ceredo, where the
citizens for years have had the
benefit OF graded schools) while
the country sub-districts have been
deprived of the advantages of
liberal education for their children,
without sending them away from
their homes.
The late legislature of West Vir
ginia at it's regular session revised
the school law and made provision
for the establishing of graded
schools in every magIsteIial dis
trict In the state, where funds were
adequate TO establish a graded
school; for the board Of education
to provide suitable grounds aud
buildings in central location, and
at once put into operation a school
of higher grade .han the sub
district schools, which are working
over time in imposing upon their
teachers the necessity of crowding
the work Of six teachers into one
room and requiring from 80 to 40
recitatious per day TO be recited be-
fore one teacher. If 30 recitations
are heard per day the average for
, each is ten minutes. Forty reel
tations (Which is the rule In most
sub. district schools) the average is
seven and one.half minutes for each
recitation.
Now, it is evident that, TO edu
l cate the masses we must have the
o graded school in the center of every
| magisterial district. The rural dis
trlcts are entitled to the benefit Of
education rs well as the towns and
y cities of orr state. 1t is now, that
e their time has come, to reward them
+ for their years Of hardships and
e taxation and give them good Grad
ed schools and good roads. and all
Il this without burdenIug them with
"A extra taxation and the state OF
O West Virginia is now rich enough
Y to do it.
As We have stated, the site of
e the DunleIth graded school build
l. ing is located up the Buffalo valley
II Onefourth of mile west of the \.
g " w. station, and Is surrounded
If by plot of ground Of four acres,
n costing the school board $500
The frame work Of the twc-Story
building cost 81 600. The equip

The VERY BEST PAINT SOLD
The Paiterson-Sargent Co. Exploit. Its Ware.
Through The Lambom Drug Company.

The Lamborn Drug Company has
accepted the agency for "B. P. S."
which being interpreted, means the
Best Paint Solo, and the manu-
facturers. Patterson Sargent Co. of
Chicago, have sent one of their ex-
perts, Mr.. c. E. Atkinson, to Deni-
son to demonstrate the value of these
paints to all interested. This is an.
old established paint house and has
back of it q record of years of sue
cessful dealing and honest manufac-
ture. The claim is made for B. P.
S. that it is better and cheaper than
the old lead and oil. better to handle.
handsomer in finish and more durable.
The company points with pride to
many instances where this paint has
stood the test for ten years and up
wards. Among the many testimonials
used is one of especial interest to
Denison people. 1t was written nine
years ago but it is still good. Here
it is:

Gentlemen-Your letter of inquiry
concerning the wearing qualities of
your paint which / used on my house
in 1897 received. In reply would say
it has given excellent satisfaction in
every way; much better than lead
and oil with which it had been pre-
viously painted.
Yours truly,
LESLIE M. SHAW.
Governor of Iowa.
Mr.. Atkinson is also making a
showing of the Nisoron Varnish. The
clever reader will experiment on this
word and find that it spells. when
read backwards. "No Rosin'' and
this. in nutshell. explains one of
the chief merits of the varnish. A
display is also made of "China- lac''
a beautiful interior finish which Mr..
Atkinson explains is not varnish
stain but color varnish. When we
asked what this difference implied he
stated that it would not settle at the
bottom as the varnish stain, did but
that the color was boiled right in and
was uniform throughout, with no
settling.
a very pretty display is being
made at the Lamborn Drug Co. and
any one contemplating doing any
painting this spring will do we'll to
call, see the exhibit, and have the
merits of B. P. S. explained more at
length.

LET us admonish the democrats to
get to work and leave nothing undone
in their effort to elect the magnificent
ticket which appears at the head of
this page. The election is not quite a
month off and now is the time to per-
feet an organization. No party nor
person can win without an organization
where the contest is anything like close.
We know the republicans are organic.
ed, for they are riding day and night.
seeing the people and filling them with
promises and pledges they never hope
to fill, even should they get in power.
If single democrat is considering the
thought of voting under the log cabin
or wintering his vote, let him ponder.
In all these years of democratic ad-
ministration there has not been a cop
per illegally. and We might say wrong
fully appropriated. No smell of taint
is found on the garment of a single
democrat who has held office in Lincoln
county in the recollection of the writer,
who has taken notice of things" for
the past 80 years. Questions of pith
and moment have been well handled by
the democratic fiscal courts, the judges,
sheriffs, clerks and other officers have
given clean, economic administrations
The pixies have been bought and freed
with very little burden to the tax payer.
the courthouse will soon be completed
and nobody has been, nor will be inJur-
ed by the 1886, 900 expended in its con-
struction. Other propositions have
been as judiciously administered and
the democrats have done it all. Why
want to turn them out with records
that even an X-ray can find no flaw in?
The republicans might have done as
well but we know what the democrats
have done and proof is better than
promise. There may be sore demo-
Gratis. and perchance there may be rea-
son for that soreness, but why blame
the democratic party? There may be
those who have just grievances but
why 60 to the party that has all along
been odious and in which you have
neither feeling nor fellowship? Stop
and think little if you are sore, fel-
low-democrats! Think how you have
fought the republicans in the past and
how probably some democrats have
fought other democrats for you. Get
your head cool. warm up your feet and
heart, take your old place in the demo.
cratic party and fight the radicals till
Sheol freezes over. Do this and all
will be well and you'll feel lots the bet
ter because of it.

EDITOR w. P. WALTON, of the Lex
ington Gazette, is striking some sledge-
hammer blows for democracy and the
effects will be shown when the vote Of
Fayette county is counted Nov. 2. The
fusion, or rather confusion" ticket,
headed by Judge Parker, is being shown
up in its true light and it is clearly
pointed out that the so called demo-
Gratis on that ticket have been demo-
Gratis for revenue only. 1t is to be hoped
that Judge Parker. who has sucked the
public teat for 25 years. and the other
men Of his ilk who were determined to
run on one ticket or the other. will be
beaten so badly that they will never be
heard of again. Let each and all Of
them emulate the example Of Judas Is
CARROT. IL his end was a fitting one,
certainly a like one for Parker and his
gang would be. His sin was little IL
any, greater than theirs. Keep up the
good work, my dear brother. You're
on the right side and right will pre-
vail.

ON BY PETITION.

We understand that Capt. Herndon
has filed a petition with the Secretary
Of State to have his name printed on
the official ballot. and under the device
of the Log Cabin. as a candidate for
circuit judge. This Is an unusual, tho
a permissible proceeding. Any man
has right to run for any Office at his
pleasure. But it is supposed to be the
privilege of a political party. acting
through its constituted authorities, to
say who may and who shall not, use
the party's device in candidacy. The
republican party in this judicial
district did not nominate Captain
Herndon. A large and respectable ma
jority Of this party did not. and do not
now. desire that Capt. Herndon shall
be regarded as the party's candidate.
They do not favor his use of the party's
emblem to further his own personal de-
sires. The republican district commit
tee of this district did not desire to
make a nomination for this office, as
We are advised. but at the repeated in
sistence f.Capt. Herndon, who per-
sonally interviewed the members Of the
committee and personally attended their
session. the Icommittee convened and
the session was a stormy one. Capt.
Herndon strenuously demanded of the
that it nominate him then

and there. This the committee could
not legally do because the State law
gives to the committee the power only
of fixing the time and manner Of max
ing party nominations. The commit
tee. however. offered to call q conven-
ton of the party for the purpose Of
making q nomination, but this was not
agreeable to the captain. He seemed
to be apprehensive that the republicans
Of Garrard This own county, would
throw him down." And thus the mat
ter ended with nothing done. In the
meantime the captain got busy solicit
ing voters to sign a petition asking him
to run in defiance Of party regularity.
II is an easy thing to get some people
to sign a petition to pardon convict or
to ask a fellow who is "spilin" for a
job, to run for an office. But il does
seem to a plain man that where the Of
fee is one of dignity and high import
ance and there are respectable and IN
fiuential party organizations charged
with the power Of making nominations,
a man who appropriates the device Of
one of these parties to further his own
ambition, not only forgets the dignity
of the office but stabs the party whose
device he takes.

over being Tilted and wants $1,000 a

jilter in this case wanted to marry her
he would be willing to testify that she
was worth $1,000 a pound, but the
chances are that he will not be able to
agree with the plaintiff on this rate un-
der the circumstances. These men are
queer rascals any way you take them.
