AMONG THE EDITORS.
A Local option Plan.

Rev. t. NJ. Hare, president of the
West virginia Anti-saloon league. is
quoted as saying that in his opinion
If an extra session Of the legislature
were called 1t would be useless to sub.
NIT the prohibition question to It in
view of the decisive vote Of the SEN
ate against the measure last February.
He is further quoted as believing that
the same body would pass a local OPP
ton measure.
Mr.. Hare's opinion seems sound.
In fact, there is every reason to be-
Heve that If the prohibition amend,
ment had. not monoplized attention at
the regular session a satisfactory local
option measure would be in working
order today. A decided majority OF the
members of both houses favored such
Legislation, but the one-idea prohibit
ionists were SO strong and clamorous
in their insistence upon that one par
ticular proposition that no one could
make any headway with local option
with the net result that the few who
were against any new liquor legisla-
ton came out completely on top.
1t would have been possible even to
have taken the Robinson county option
bill and the Craig Individual option
bill, opposite polartties though they
were, amalgamated them, cooked
them up together and made from the
residue a measure that would have
suited West virginia conditions and
been effective in minimizing the evils
of the traffic and controlling saloons.
1t can be done at the extra session.
too, If the legislators of moderate
views, the great majority who repres.
ent neither the prohibition extremists
nor the liquor dealers, nut the people.
atlarge, would take things in their
own Misunderstanding News.

Yellow is the popular summer shade.
1t is being worn IN Newport and In
Washington. Mrs. Arthur Scott Bur
den has been seen in Newport almost
exclusively in yellow, and her example
has been followed by many young
women who cannot hope to match her
in originality. In the capital. Mrs.
Knox. daughter-in-law Of the secretary
Of state. and Miss Helen Taft have
taken the lead in the fad for yellow.
Mrs. Knox has one unusually pretty
empire frock of yellow embroidered
net over yellow satin. Bows of old
yellow lace are on each shoulder, a
yellow lace sash Is worn and also
yellow satin slippers. A wreath of
gold leaves gives the finishing touch.
Miss Taft's favOrite combination Is
yellow lace over yellow silk. Almost
oil the hats worn in the afternoon in
both Washington and Newport for the
last few weeks have had 4 touch Of
yellow. and many have had a full yell
low crown.

7CHEEE'S a grass grown trail near
the shining rail where the
trains go whizzing by
a Whore the smoke from the overland
fast express is spread like a

It's the trail wh"rc the stage went rum
bling through in the days of the real

But whefe is the driver who braved the
path ard whose stout heart knew no
fear"
Twas u perilous trip that the prairie
ship made across the high. brown
plains.
But has any one ever heard men tell OF u
coward who held the reins?
There are plenty Of tales of heroes work
and of passengers saved from death.
But when did Il driver ever quail in the
ferceSt bliZZard's breath?
So go to the trail when the stars are pale
and tits scarce an hour till dawn,
And you'll see ehostly stage fit past, by

And hign on the box sits the ghost of a
man. AMI he throws you an eerie
hail
1t is thus that the stage goes by today on

The mystery was to find the whole
