Obituary..

Cora Virginia, daughter of Leroy and
Maude V. Hendricks, died at the home
OF her grandfather, Adam {. Moler, at
Bakerton, this county, on Thursday night,
March 30, aged 10 years, 2 monthS and 3
days. Ii was her lot to become afflicted
with heart disease, and everything that
could be done by physicians and kind
friends was done, but the angel OF death
came and claimed her She was a SUI
ferer, but bore it all patiently, and was
never heard to murmur On Sunday
morning the little body, most beautiful in
death, was conveyed to ShepherdStown
and laid 10 rest in Elmwood Cemetery.
The funeral services were conducted by
Rev. ]. c. Siler. The many beautiful
floral tributes was mark OF esteem in
which Virginia was held Little Virgin
las life was short but well spent, and
now she is enjoying the sweet rest in
our Heavenly Fathers home, where all
is Joy and peace. How hard it is TO say,
"Thy will be DONE" yet God is too wise
to err, and too good to be unkind. God
alone can comfort and heal the broken
hearts of those that grieve for Virginia,
and will be the ever-conStant guide and
support of the many dear ones that are
left 10 mourn her loss, and some time
when the Heavenly Father calls to meet
her in Heaven where all is Joy and hap

excellent.

THAT the Democrats are not only keep
ing faith with the people who voted them
into control OF the house OF Representa-
tives last fall, but are showing political
wisdom and honesty as we'll, is manifest
ed by the action of the House caucus
Tuesday night Two eminently good
things were done-the first being an en-
dorsement by an overwhelming majority
OF the Canadian reciprocity agreement,
with the further provision that the PreSi-
dent be directed to make an effort to Sc
sure still further reductions by the same
process. The caucus also agreed to
push bill removing the tariff and placing
on the free list agricultural implements Of
every sort, boots am shoes, saddles and
Saddlery, wire fencing, baling wire, bag
ging and ties, rough sacks and burlaps,
flour, fresh meat products, sewing ma
chimes, salt, rough and dressed lumber
except hard wood.
II takes no scholar to see the advan-
tages that would come TO the farmers and
many other persons by the cheapening OF
these articles, and nobody who is worthy
OF protection would be hurt. When these
reforms shall have been instituted, the
House will take up the cotton and WOOL
en- schedule OF the Payne Aldrich tariff
bill, which are so absolutely rotten, and
perhaps other features will be tackled if
the outlook is encouraging.
OF course even though these bills are
now certain to pass the House, they will
have to run the gauntlet OF the Senate !;
but the Democrats there are well organ
lied, and with the help OF the Republi-
can progreSsives will no doubt be able to
accomplish great deal of good. We
think that the chances are good for a
break in the wall from the shelterof which
the tariff robbers have so long plundered
the people, and in another year or two
the whole wretched system will be revis-
ed by those who have the interest of the
people at heart.

AT the caucus OF Democratic Senators
in Washington last week Senator Thomas
s. Martin, OF Virginia, was elected floor
leader of his party, receiving p votes to
l6 tor Senator Shively, of Indiana. We
are sorry to note this action otthe Demo-
Gratis, for Senator Martin is thorough
going corporation man and usually voted
with Senator Aldrich and the reactionary
Senators instead OF with the progressives.
He even voted with Aldrich for the high
tariff schedules of the Payne bill, and is
dominated by the Interests. Both OF
WestVirginian's Senators supported Mar
tin, but the new Senator from New York.
Mr.. O'Gorman, was for Shively. Sen
ator Chiffon, of this State, was elected
secretary of the caucus, and will fill the
place throughout the session.

PRESIDENT TAFT announced last Mon
day that the reason those 10000 United
States soldiers were rushed to Texas
along the Mexican border was because
OF the internal diSSensions in Mexico.
Somehow, this seems very lame. There
was no indication that MexiCo's troubles
were going TO overflow into the United
States, for the revolution" there seems
TO be little more than riot OF small pro-
portions, and no damage has been done,
so far, to amount to anything. The state
ment that this big army was necessary to
prevent arms and ammunition from being
smuggled into Mexico by The insurgents
is equally trifling. II the government OF
Mexico didn't want this to 90 on, why
didn't it send its own army to prevent
il?

WE hope that every citizen OF Jefferson
county who has the real interests OF the
people at heart will sign the petitions OF
the No-License Committee and help the
movement to abolish saloons in the coun-
ty. Charles Town and Harper'S Ferry
are the only wet spots between the Po-
tomac river and Harrisonburg-let us re-
move the blot from our own section and
hope that Harrisonburg, the last stand OF
the liquor people in all this fair valley,
will likewise be cleanSed.

JEFFERSON COUNTY is aroused as never
before in its history as to the evils OF the
liquor traffic, and if public sentiment is to
prevail, the days of the licensed saloons
are certainly numbered. In town and
country alike, among the substantial and
thoughtful citizens, there is determined
and active opposition to the saloons,
and many persons who have heretofore
been Indifferent or tolerant, are now
earnestly against the evil, which has been
growing at such dangerous rate. The
meeting at Charles Town last Monday
was revelation TO those persons who
have not kept track Of the growth OF pub
lie sentiment, and we feel that there is
going TO be radical reform in Jefferson
county.
