MORE REPUBLICAN PROSPERITY.

The daily papers of yesterday an
nounce that the United States Coal and
Coke Company has laid Off three hun
dred coal miners, reducing the conpa-
ny s output by about one-h9lf. No pos
tive information as to the cause is
given. The Offices of the COMPANY are
at Gary, w. Va. This is just another
little touch of prosperity under a Re
publican administration. -Clinch Valley

contemporary Is amusing. Here is a

of dollars for the benefit Of this section
s'id has enjoyed since It's start large
measure Of prosperity under the Repub

cratic house Of representatives, and
knowing the blighting effects that have
always followed when the Democratic
party is in charge OF the nations af-
fairs are, as matter of prudence. cur
failing their output until they see the
result of this election.
If the fear of Democratic house has
this effect, what would be the effect if
they actually do WIN? The miners and
operators along the Clinch and down

VALUE OF HORSES.

One Of the objections that has been
made against the general adoption of
automobiles has been they would lower
the value of horses. The following
facts, however, show that instead the
value Of horses since automobiles come
in to general use have gradually and
constantly increased:
In 1895, which date in a general wav
approximately marks the advent of the
automobile, there were Is, 803, 31S horses
in the country, and that the average
market price of the horse on January I
of that year was S36 20. From that
time until 1899 there was q steady ar
nual decrease in the number of horses
with prices remaining approximately
the same. Beginning with 1901 we find
that horse production is back to The
1895 level, with the price increased to
$52. 80 head. By 1905 the number of
horses had increased to 1857, 7O2.
while the average market price Der
horse on January 1 of that year was
$7O.S7 During each year from 1905 to
1909, inclusive, there was a STEADY
stride in the advanced production of
horses, of approximately three-quarters
Of million a year, until the grand to-
tai of ~, $40, 900 is shown. That which
was true of production was also true of
prices. During every year of the period
there was enhancement of the latter
until the high figure of 1864 was
reached.
