Dear AUNT Madoe and Sisters:
Another year Of our lives is past and gone
with its hopes and aspirations, its joys and
sorrows; also its pleasures which the most of
us have experienced.
When we look back and review the past we
can, with thankful hearts, render praise to
the dear Father "from whom all blessings
fow". take courage and press forward with
trust for what the future may bring us.
1.-THE gift of another year, dear Lord,
From thy loving hand we take;
o, grant that We use it gratefully
For Thy tender mercy's sake"
hear that dear Sister B, is i'll; am very
sorry, and hope:she will recover and be smart
and well (although the infrmities Of age are
creeping on), for she cannot be spared now.
She was dear friend of mine, though we
lived some miles apart.
often wish i knew the sisters, but it is .
pleasure to read their.1etters which look for
eagerly each week when THE AMERICAN
comes.
Dell, Sadie. Aunt Maria and Esther are
cousins of mine. 1 will say, with Dell, that
Carrie Nation is on the right track, but
rather rough; still, l used to think that 1
should have liked to have been one Of her
company seeing the goods" split.
Our State is called prohibition State; still
there is q good deal of drinking. while ago
we received q circular from q firm advertising
choice liquors. They-O mol they don't sell
to saloons! Thatlwould be too low for them
and give them too low q name. They sold to
respectable people. We didn't belong to that
respectable class, so the papers went into the
stove.
Rather late to write, of our Christmas tree
now, but will mention it. We had very
good family tree, full and had an interesting
and enjoyable evening. Nothing very costly,
but pleasing-with oranges, apples and dates
to pass around.
A family tree makes a better impression on
the minds OF the young of the birthday of our
Saviour.
Many thanks, Aunt Madge, for the pretty
souvenir you sent me; this is the second one
I have. Love and good wishes to all,
GRANDMA G.
This letter from Grandma G. is much
appreciated. We always think of you,
grandma, as having seat of honor in the
M. B. circle-just the most comfortable
chair in the cosiest corner. That is where
we will all put you in our imaginations.

The Fairmont Times inSits argu-
ment of the state tax question still
clfngs to the idea that Marion county
has not produced any wealth in
long time. 1t says the old aggregate
value of real and personal property
in that county was $s.OOO.OOo and
that the present valuation of real
and personal property is about $4s,-
900 an increase of SIS per cent
latter valuation is the result of ex-
cesslve assessments.
Recently the Telegram showed
where the bank resources in Clarks-
burg alone had within few years
jumped from 100000 to $4,000
900 an Increase of ia per cent.
Doubtless, the Times could learn. if
it would. that the resources of the
banks of Fairmont today amount to
more than the aggregate assessment
of all real and personal property
of Marion county under the old val
uation
When the Times gets into its cram
ium that the wealth of Marion coun-
ty is actual apd not a fictitious act on
the part of the assessor. it will be in
position to discuss the state tax ques-
ton intelligently.
With a wrong basis for it's argu-
ment, it is little wonder that the
Times argues wrong.

Tint Com Decision.

In efforts to prejudice the voters
here, the local Democratic mouths
piece could not refrain from making
it known that the judge of the SUI
preme court. of New York, who made
"a recent decision against the union
shop, Is a Republican. 1t undertook.
therefore, to attach more Importance
to his politics than to the judge him
SELF Instead OF trying to present
reasons to show that the decision is
wrong or to suggest anything that
would aid organized labor, 1t rushed
headlong into the thought that It
could use the judges politics to ad-
vantage in what promises to be futile
efforts to get votes for candidates
who not only never did anything to
encourage union labor but also
fought that kind of labor.
The very littleness of such use of
the action of the judge is strikingly
shown, when one recalls the fact that
Democratic newspapers in general
are proclaiming in the case of Gov
ernor Harmon and the Columbus
street car strike that Governor
Harmon's action is based on what he
considers his duty. The New York
judge doubtless is just as conscien-
tious in the discharge of his duty as
is Governor Harmon, notwithstand-l
ing both may be in error.
OF the decision itself the Wheeling
Intelllgencer has sensible editorial.
containing a suggestion that organ
lied labor's authority and power
may be too limited, and doubtless
within a few years at most that fea-
ture will be met:
Justice Con, of the New York
supreme court, holds that a strike
against the open shop is a conspiracy
in restraint of trade. The decision
ranks with the Danbury hatteI case
as the most important limitation by
law, of the ACTIVITIES of unionism.
In the Danbury halter case the court
held that a boycott was conspiracy
in restraint of trade. Now it is held
that a strike against the open shop i
is case of conspiracy.
The Inteligencer does not presume
to affirm or to question the quality
of the law embodied in these decIs- |
ions. One thing is certain; that Is
that the power of labor unions either
to enforce their own or to secure
from employers, is !
greatly limited by them. Between

reailze thatZa any Imported idea to be
used agaInst the Welfare sof the peo-
pie nj the district in general suits
them exactly-.. In, this instance SEN
ator EIkfns Is condemned because
he stood out for what the people OF
West virginia Wanted. They asked
him to keep coal on the free list and
he ola MS part They asked him to
keep glass and pottery on the free
list and he did help. They asked
him to see that free trade did not
cripple and destroy other industries
in West Virginia and he complied
with their request.
Those who use the phrase. Jump
ing out of the frying pan into the
hre' are unalterably opposed to what
Senators Scott and Elkins achieved
in this respect for the people of West
virginia, and by their own declara-
lions they would wipe all that good
work out with a single stroke, were
they in power.
True, since their bold declaration
in favor OF free trade, they have be
come frightened and are trying to
evade the question by assuming to
accept the platform of some Repub-
llcans on the matter of tariff sched-
ules. but no one should suffer HIM
self to be misled. They are radical
free traders at heart and they cling
to that just as closely as ever they
did.
II they are becoming persuaded t.
the Republican belief that the tariff
needs revision only an some of Its
schedules and that the protective
principle must remain intact, why
do they indulge in so many meaning
less generaltties? They evidently
object to the tariff duties Senator
Elkins helped to place on coal, sheel
iron, tin plate. window and Other
glass, wool and other farm products
and various other things in this con
gressfonal district. and Directing T.
these they should tell the great mass
of toilers and makers, whom they
menace, whether they would place
any tariff duty on these articles, and
if so. how much.
West Virginia producers anG
laborers think the tariff dutie:
on the states products are low
enough. They feel that lower duties
would ruin them, and. thus wha'
mission really has free trade Democ'
racy in this district or state? Abso
lutely none!

The local Democratic press dis
plays its monumental ignorance,
when it undertakes to dePlore the
probable elevation of Senator

it shows it's utter lack of familiarity
with the course of Senator Elkins.
when 1T declares that would be jump

Such ignorance as it displays at

is doubtless the result OF its having
entered the field after the heroic
fight put-up by Senator Elkins at the
instance of the people of the state
without much regard for politics.
when he stood out so manfully for
the varied Industries of West Vlr-

A doctors first question when con
suited by patient is, Are your bow

cent of illness is attended with in
active bowels and torpid liver. Thi;
condition poisons the system with
waste matter and causes accumula
ton of gases which must be removed
through the bowels before health can
be restored.
Salts, ordinary pills and cathartics
may be truly likened to dynamite.
Through their harsh, irritating action
they force passage through the bow
els, causing pain and damage to the
delicate intestinal structure which
weakens the whole system and at
best only produces temporary relief.
The repeated use of such treatments
causes chronic irritation of the stom.
ach and bowels, dries and hardens
their tissues, deadens their nerves,
stiffens their muscles and generally
brings about an injurious habit which
sometimes has almost if not fatal re-
suits.
