The action 81 the House OF Dee
gates in voting 70 establish the office
q cemtni Toner of agriculture is
above criticism, but. as the Hunt
lngton Heratd4Dispatch points out,
the members overlooked some neces-
safy ana essential fundamentals in
that connection and by SO doing
nave made the naw Office sort OF
arnacie on the ship OF state rather
than one Of practical service. Says
tiie Huntington newspaper:
y IA state commissioner of agri-
culture, however well and clearly
defined his duties. must have some
thing more tangible to stand upon
Than mere ofdsial dignity. and must
have more important work 10 do
tlaan that Of drawing his salary. The
Iferald Dispatah has constantly and
consistently urged the Importance
OF fostering agriculture in West
Virginia. 1t has held that the first
essential in reela'miag the half
waste agricultural lands OF the state
and bringing them UP to their
natural possibilities lies in good
roads. But waving this to be dis
Cussed in more proper place, it
unaist here he said that the mere Gre
ation of the office OF commissioner
Of agriculture will not of Itself give
tanning and stock raising and fruit
growing the needed impetus. Agri-
cultural colleges must be founded
and nutured. The dignity of farm
ing, its professional ana scientilc
sides mus be taught; It's opportu-
mites for financial hetterment must
me made clear. With the proper
fundamentals to guarantee these
things then there will be urgent need
for commissioner of agriculture
and great work for the right man
to do.
;,But it is hard to see the consist
ency of the action taken by the
House Of Delegates. On one day the
members Of that body vote to abpi-
ish the office OF state highway COM
missioner, the next to abolish the
state road fund, and then few days
later TO create the Office of commits
stoler OF agriculture. Good roads is
absolutely the only thing that Will
bring West Virginia agriculture up
TO a point approaching anything
like Its best possibilities. The leg-l
dslators daye made no mistake in
wottng to establish the Office of COM
mi sioner OF agriculture. but they
haS e made mistake in the practice
OF a policy tending 10 undo the
progressive measures in favor Of bet
ter highway conditions started byI

 Early last Tuesday morning at Guaymas while attempting to disarm seven drunken Yaqui Indians Commanded by Felipe SierraS the notorious chief, fight took place between the Indians and seven Maderista soldiers, during which Sierras and three of his band were killed and another wounded, but not before Captain Ochoa and one of his men were shot. The Yaqui chief fired the first shot hitting Captain Ochoa in the right hand. Then the Mexican officer drew a pistol with his left hand and instantly killed the chief by shooting him through the head. During the fight about fifty shots were fired by the soldiers and Indians. The Indians had gone to Guaymas for the purpose of asking the authorities to give them back their Yaqui River land. They got drunk and when requested to give up their guns refused and now there are three more good Indians in Sonora.

Our hearts are rent with anguish and
the world seems dark and lonely since
God called our darling boy to higher
life. Still, we are not unmindful of the
tender, earnest sympathy and the time
ly offers of assistance, with which our
many kind friends have striven to alle-
viate our suffering and grief in this dark
hour. We are especially grateful for
the many beautiful flowers.
We pray that God may bless these
dear friends, granting them much hap

heritage in that radiant world to which
our beloved child has gone.

Death of Earl C. KendriCk.

Last spring as the senior class of the
High School were giving their gradu-
ating exercises at the chapel none of
them were prouder than Earl C. Ken
drick, for he had won the coveted schol-
arship to the University of Virginia;
and this fall he left to take his place in
the ranks of the students of that IA
nous institution, full of hope that his
college record would equal that which
he had made In the High School here.
Alas, the futility of human hopes, for
before the first semester ended Earl
had graduated into that higher school
his home of endless rest.
Earl died at the University of Virgin
Ia on last Friday from cerebo spinal
miningitis. His remains were brought
here on Saturday, and at noon Sunday
the funeral services were held at the
Christian church, conducted by Rev. ].
N. Harman, after which interment was
made in Maplewood cemetery.
Earl Clarence Kendrick was a fine
specimen of young manhood he was
only seventeen-manly, without bad
habits, gentle, but not effeminate, with
good business record made during his
vacations, consistent member of the
Christian church since his eleventh year
and for several years secretary of the
Christian Sunday School, he leaves be-
hind him a record of which his parents
may be proud and which any youth of
this city will do we'll to emulate.

EIGHTEEN LIVES
SNUFFED OUT.
Explosion in Mines Of Bottom Greek Coal
and Coke Company Saturday Hu1s
Many Souls IntO Eternity.

Eighteen men were killed in the mines
OF the Bottom Creek Coal and Coke
Company at Vivian, W. Va, on last
Saturday at about 2 O'Clock in the aft
ernoon by terrific explosion of deadly
gases. Over one hundred and fifty men
were in the mine at the time of the ex-
plosion, but all excepting the eighteen
who were in the explosion zone, es-
capped without injury. Relief parties
from all over the Pocahontas field were
hurried to the mouth of the Inflated
mine, and by heroic work nearly every
body had been taken from the mine
within dozen hours after the explosion
had occurred.
Among the number killed were: w.
ID. Henderson. of Rockville, Nd; E. H.
Harvey, of Philadelphia; Tarvin Will
hams, of Keystone, W. Va, and Chas.
Brewer, of EIkhorn, w. Va, who con-
stituted a party of four making a semi
annual survey of the mine for the Gro
zier Land Company, owners of the Bot
tom Creek property, All the others
killed were either negroes or foreign
ers.
A coroner's verdict on the cause of
the explosion, rendered Monday. says
that it was caused by an open lamp car
ried by member of the Inflated engi-
neering party which ignited the gases.
Both the State and Federal mine in
spectors are on the scene making rigid
investigation of the matter, but their
reports will not be forthcoming for sew
eral days. The company hopes to have
the mine in working condition by today.

Liquor Man Loses Case.

The Virginia Supreme Court in affirm
ing on last Thursday a recent Judge
ment of the circuit court of Tazewell
county, settled an important point con-
corning retail liquor licenses.
H. ]. Ferrimer has q retail license in
Pocahontas, and some months ago he
shipped by the Southern Express Com
pany, via the Norfolk and Western, a
package containing four and one-half
gallons of whiskey to a thirsty soul at
Mora, W. Va.
1t was charged in his home town that
this was violation of the law, as he
did not have shippers license. The case
was decided without a jury by the cir
cult judge, who held that Ferrimer was
guilty, and he was fined $50 and costs.
He unsuccessfully demurred to the in
dictment against him and also raised
the point that the Virginia statute, un-
der which the prosecution was had, vio-
lated the interstate commerce laws.
/, AS the judgment of the lower court is
affirmed this contention now amounts to
nothing. The Supreme Court, COM
menting on the defendants position,
said: eff the contention of the plain
tiff in error (Ferrimer) can be main
tanned, then any citizen may anywhere
within the limits of this Commonwealth,
sell and ship intoxicating liquors with
out license. 1t is the sale as well as
the shipping of the liquor which comes
within the observation of the statute
and which cannot lawfully be made
without first obtaining license for the
purpose If the State may lawfully
prohibit the manufacture and sale with
in. the State even for the purpose Of
transportation beyond the limits of the
State, surely it may regulate the sale of
liquor. even though its transportation
beyond the limits of the State be in
tended, by the imposition of reason
able license which operates vits kiis-
elimination uRcc.nII cf its i1hs' s."

The following clipping is taken from
the Albany, Missouri, Ledger:
"Chas. Day, of Denver, Colorado,

man:
"a man died at Denver, Colorado,
October 3rd, giving his name as ].
Henry Lester. He was tall, one
eye was entirely gone, and his hair
and beard white, from age and
trouble he said His death was
caused by an abcess in his side from
which blood poisoning set In. He
said he was shot through the abdo-
men last March by Luther Lowe, at
Wards Cove, Va, accidentally. He
told his roommate he had relatives
living in Oklahoma, California, Ten
nessee, Canada and Mexico, and he
hoped that they might learn of his
sad death. His last word was
Lucille"
This item recalls the tragedy of the
21st of last March in Wards Cove, this
county, when Bob Lester and Luther
Lowe were shot and killed and ]. Henry
Lester, the man reported to have died
in Denver, was dangerously wounded.
