The Result OF the Election.

The American people have said
by their ballots that the Republican
party must step down and out and
that the Democratic party will take
charge Of the ship of state.
The Democrats have elected not
only a majority of the lower house
of congress but have gained control
OF the West Virginia Legislature
and will name successor TO Sena.
tor n. Il. Scott.
What was the cause? Many
things no doubt contributed to
Republican defeat. 1t is the opin-
ION of the writer that the high cost
OF living had more than anything
else to do with Republican defeat
throughout the nation. Whether
or not the the tariff has anything to
do with high prices we are not pre-
pared to say; but many people have
become DISCONTINUED on account of
having to pay so much for every.
thing they eat and wear, and dis.
content is sure to vent itself against
the party In power. Many thous-
ands of Republicans throughout
the country voted the Democratic
ticket this year that have never be-
fore voted that ticket and we dare
say will never again vote it. They
just imagined a change might Sc
cure for them cheaper grub and
wearing apparel.
Another thing which helped de.
feat the Republican party in this
state was the arbitrary way in
which the state committee has been
DONG business, the office holders on
the committee desiring to hold on
with death-like grip to their posi-
lions and thereby perpetuate them
selves in office.
But this lease of power for the
democracy is not likely to last long.
we believe the Republican party
will clean It's house with a 1eorgani-
cation that will not be partial to a
lew politicians, and strengthened
by this defeat will assume entire
control of governmental affairs IN
1912.

It's nice to be the Only One,
Your mother loves you so.
When neople want to borrow you
She hates to have you go;
But when she goes away herself
Orladies come to call,
It's lonesome in the garden
And it's lonesome in the hall,
And then you want Another One
To laugh at you and say,
Little Only, little Lonely,
Never mind Let's play ~
It's nice to be the Only One
When fathers home ut night,
But it's lonesome in the nursery
When he takes away the light.
You think how coy Two would be

And another little pillow
And another little head:
You shut your eyes and think and

Until it's almost true:
Little Only, little Lonely,

November gets it's name from the
Latin novem (nine) and was originally
the ninth month of the year This
brought Thanksgiving around two
months earlier than we have it now, and
1t became very unpopular. The in
surgents, who constituted majority in
the agricultural districts, were bitterly
opposed to il. They made two conten-
tons: First, that young turkeys were
not old enough to market; second, that
crops had not progressed to the point
where 1t was possible to make out
whether there was anything to be thank
full for or not. In 7l3 b. @. the storm
broke. The insurgents carried Gaul,
Britannia and II other doubtful states.
and the Forum Immediately assembled
and made November the eleventh month
of the year.
