Lots Of Service.

The people of West Virginia
are getting a wonderful lot of
service ont Of that legislative as
sembly at Charleston which is at
a stand still as the result of the
refusal of the fifteen Republican
State Senators to do what the
people sent them there for-ap-
pear in the Senate Chamber, and
act in the capacity of State SEN
ators. So far they have done
nothing but play the part of po-
litical pawns, moved back and

will and caprice of Charley Swish

Adjutant-General Elliott acting
as their keeper and body guard
But the day of settlement is sure
to come, and when it does the
people are certain to demand full
settlement at the hands of the
political machinists, who at pres
ent are engaged in the nefarious
business Of manipulating the leg

Obituary.

The grim monster Death, has
again visited our neighborhood
and taken for his victim little
Carrie Osborn, four year old,
daughter OF Mr.. and Mrs. Robert
Osborn. Carrie was their only
child which leaves a loneliness
which no one can know unless
they are likewise unfortunate.
The writer is able 20 extend to
the bereaved a heart felt sympa-
thy, for in like manner our only
child was taken from earth to
heaven. And, now, as little Car
RE is gone on before we can not
hope to call her back, and would
not if we could: But let us trust
in the Lord and try to meet her
in that home of the soul where
sickness, sorrow, pain nor death
are felt and feared no more.
Carrie Osborn was born Feb.
%, 1907 died Jan. % 1911, aged
g years II months.
Her death was brought about
by pneumonia fever. Her re-
mains were laid to rest in the
Old Bethlehem cemetery, there
to rest and await the coming
great day where in q moment
in the twinkling Of an eye we
all shall be changed
Gods Angel who comes down
to earth,
So often from on high,
To visit homes both rich and
poor,
And name the one to die.
He's no respector Of mankind,
He'll summons all to come,
Then let us all get ready here,
To live with him at home.

Hon. R. F. Kidd.

just at the hour of going
to press news reaches us by
long distance telephone from
Charleston that a compro.
mise has been reached be-
tween che Democrats and
Republicans, and The senate
is now regularly organized
with Senator Hatfield as
President. The particulars
OF the compromise we are
unable to get.
The course of the Demo
Gratis in the dispute has been
right and fair from begin
ming to end. They have
not only worked for the
welfare of West Viz giuia.
but have upheld the tradi-
ditions of honorable men.
The Republicans demanded
that the Democrats give up
every advantage that Was
gained in the recent election,
and have obstinately refused
to grant even the smallest
point in the argument.
They have shown that they
had not the welfare of the
tax payers of the state at
heart but that of the Repub-
lican party, and they must
be the object of the disap-
proyal of every fair-minded
West Vlrginian.
The legislature has pro-
ceeded to business and have
many excellent measures
ready for concurrence of the
Senate, a list of which will
be given in the near future.
Senators Chiffon and Vat
son were elected on last
Thursday the former receiv-
ing II and the latter 70
votes on joint ballot. The
governor has indicated that
he would not sign their COM
missions, but Senator Wat
son has gone TO Washington
TO claim his seat, and it is
believed that the governors
signature is unnecessary
The prohibition amend
ment bill has passed to its3rd
reading and a Jim Crow
bill has been introduced by
Senator French. Many
measures Of excellent merit
have been introduced, and
it is hoped that the good
work will be rapidly pushed.
