realize that the paper never had so
many and SO true fsrnds as it has
today. It has become daily visitor
in many homes where its absence

scribers are a newspapers best asset,
and the West virginian has many as
srrances from It's readers that they
are pleased with It from various points

read by every memser Of the family,
and that Il reaches larger number
OF homes in this community than any

FEW years than any other officials in
West Virginia. Their work Is new
and their duties stulendous, hence
the Importance Of a right beginning.
The people will watch every move

the new board. All contracts Of any
magnitude will be- published far and
wide by the newspapers and 1t will
hardly be safe for any air Of mystery
To- pervade any transaction. The peo-
Pile will want olknow who the. bidders
were and the propositions Of all con.
testants. Everything will have to be
open and aboveboard and every deal

the highest confidence in the members

their interest in all that the new order
Of things may bring about that they
VIII be very curious as to details in
all transactions. Taking care of the
financial interests OF twenty-three
State institutions is really Large
undertaking and the members OF tina
board will have many things to learn
before they get everything in first
class working order. The new board
wall have to be doubly careful also in
that 1t will establish precedents along
many lines and precedents are hard

when the place was raided. These
vile and disgusting hotels bring dis.
grace upon reputable houses and cast
suspicion on all other similar places,
therefore, the decent hotel proprietors
ought to assist in prosecutions against
the indecent managers. 1t is ninted
that because these hotels can't get
license to sell liquor they must make
money some way, hence, they turn
their places into houses of prostitu,

ought to be revoked.

CANADA'S OLD AGE PENSION.
Annuities Nontrans<srabie and Cannot
Be Seized For Debt.


Canada evidently is determined not
to be confronted in her old age by q
despairing poor law commission and
an annoying labor problem. Through
postal savings banks she has for some
time been systematically encouraging
thrift and now by a single act Of the
Dominion parliament proposes to sup
PIGMENT this by Il bureau for the sale
of old age annuities to workingmen.
In the establishment Of this bureau
the government does not tie up any
funds Of it's W beyond the annual
appropriation Of $4,000 for the mere
machinery. The smallest annuity Of
fered is for $50 and the largest 5000,
beginning when h annuitant reaches
the age of fifty-tive. Annuities cannot
be seized for debt. are nontransferable.
and the money once paid In on account
cannot be withdrawn. Payments that
are interrupted by sickness. loss Of
employment OF any other cause may
be resumed whenever the working
man is able to make them. They may
be made weekly. monthly, yearly or in
lump sums. whichever Is the most con-
venient.
According to a statistician Of au-
thority. the rates work out as follows:
A workingman who at t@e age Of
thirty begins to pay % cents a week
obtains at the age Of fifty-five an ordi-
nary annuity of SAT, or If he continues
his weekly payments till he is seventy
he thereafter receives nearly 500 an
nually. For the same weekly payment
begun at twenty he receives at sixty
m annuity of $3.50. and If he leaves it
o deposit with the government with
h understanding that it shall be en-
ployed to purchase additional amounts
he receives a further sun Of $50. max
ing his total annuity at sixty-five $40.
If when he is twenty he begins with
a lump sum of $40. followed by weekly
payments of % cents. with lump sums
Of $40 every five years until he Is
sixty. lie is entitled to an annuity Of
1851. but II his employer adds $40 q
year the annuity at sixty becomes
1858. and in the event Of the annuf-
tant's dying. say. at fifty his heirs
receive S1,215, or If the employee pays
% cents per week and the employer
$40 a year the annuity at sixty Is
1921. and ii the annuitant dies at fifty
his heirs get $1.11O.
A man may ut forty. by q single de-
posit. pay arrears Of premium between
twenty and forty and complete the
contract as If he had entered at twen-
ty. Employers Of labor may contract
for annuities for employees and fra
tcrna1 and benevolent societies for an
nuities for their members.
