Senator'S Watson and Chiffon
have established themselves here
for the session. Senator Chiffon
has taken rooms in the Senate
Office Building formerly assigned
to Senator Scott but seldom used
by him, while Senator Watson
has the rooms formerly assigned
to him but seldom used, as both
Senators Elkins and Scott were
chairmen Of the committees and
occupied large committee rooms
in the capitol proper. Senator
Watson will live at the Willard
Hotel and Senator Chiffon has
taken apartments in one of the
best residentials sections of the
city.
Senator Watson has selected
as his private secretary James
w. Wier, of Elkins, publisher of
the Randolph Enterprise and a
well known contributor to sever
al daily papers, writing usually
OH current political events.
Senator Chiffon has brought his
secretary from Charleston in the
person of Henry w. Fry, a well
known Democrat and Lawyer of
Charleston. Both arc familiar
with the situation in the State
and will prove of material assis-
lance to the Senators in their
work here.
~
Senator Watson gave a dinner
a few nights ago to the Dem
ocrats Of the West Virginia del
egation in Congress. Senator
Chiffon and Congressman Davis,
Brown, Littlepage and Hamilton
were his guests. Politics was
not discussed at the dinner but
the matter of solidifying the del
ega ton and acting in unison so
far as p, ssiblc so as to obtain the
best results was discussed.
With the legislative program
of the House limited to certain
specific and general subjects, in
Guiding the election of Senators
by direct vote of the people, pub
licity Of campaign contributions,
Canadian reciprocity, reappor-
tionment, investigations of dc
partments, admission Of Arizona
and New Mexico, Districts of

cncy appropriations, there will
be little opportunity for any of

Consolidation is Advancing
Rapidly in Beaver County.
THREE DISTRICTS ORGANIZE.

Three districts have been organized
under the consolidation laws in the
past three weeks. All are in the form
of townships. The first to vote to con-
solidate was Town !, Range -, known
as Blue Mound. Town ,, Range 2l,
soon followed the example of Blue
Mound and formed Bethany Consoli-
dated District. Later, Town ,, Range
p, consolidated and formed Balko
solidated District.
In Blue Mound there was only one
opposing vote. In Bethany the vote
was unanimous in favor of the plan,
and in Balko the proportion in favor Of
consolidation was nearly to /.
These districts will erect modern
school buildings, and draw one-half of
the cost from the State. The south
west part of the county seems to be in
favor of good schools. Let the good
work go on.

the hard times, but notice the bank

New Ruling Effective July
1st, 1911,

We have mailed out personal notices
TO all delinquent subscribers twice the
past three months and are mailing out
the third and last notice this week ad-
vising them again that the HERALD will
bring its subscription accounts up TO
comply with the recent Postoilice rul-
ing, which prohibits publishers from
extending more than one years credit
to delinquent subscribers This new
system will POSITIVELY go into
effect July LIST, 1911, and all those who
are one year in arrears and have not
come in before that date and made
settlement, will have to be dropped
from the list.
We have given ample notice to all
subscribers that we we're compelled to
comply with this new ruling and we
had hoped that all would come in and
take care OF their accounts. Many
have done this but there are still some
who have failed to do so, To all these
we especially direct this notice. II
you desire the HERALD further il will
be necessary for you to make some
kind OF settlement before July lst 1911.
II you haven't the cash, we will be
glad to accept your note but we must
have your account within the limit of
one year.
We are doing this simply to protect
ourself and not because we object to
extending further credit on subscrip.
tion. Were we not compelled to do so,
we would not drop a single subscriber
from the list until they ordered us to
do so. We believe most of our readers
think the HERALD worth sl.OO a year
and will pay for it and that it is more
neglect and oversight than a desire
not TO pay up that causes so many de-
linquencies, however, il is no longer a
matter of choice with us. Many pub.
fishers have been fined as much as
$4,000 for extending credit further
than the Postoflice department per-
mits. We couldn't afford TO stand
many $4,000 fines and have decided to
bring our list up to the ruling before
Uncle Samuel gets our scalp.
The matter ia up to you. You have
have been fully advised and, II by fail
ure to make settlement, the HERALD
doesn't come TO your address after July
LIST, 1911 you'll know the reason.
No doubt the office "Devi" will be
so overcome with grief that he will re-
fuse to be comforted and will insist on
wearing the Office towel as badge of
mourning, at the loss of some of our
old-time friends who have been with
us for years, hut unless all accounts
are squared up we must drop them Off
the list regardless of his grief.

mind-D0 1T Now
