TROUBLE IN DINING ROOM
Little Mixup Between Ladies Accepted Phlosophically by the Torpidville
 Landlord.

At one time yesterday 1t looked like we was going to have a little trouble here in the dining room, but it didn't come to nothin' nSnch," related the landlord of the Torpidville tavern. Maxine and Sylphie. the young la dies that are waitin' table, got to squab- blin' about pint of etiquette, or the merits of their respective fellers, or something that-away, as ladies Is everlastin'ly doin'; and Sylphie, reck- on 1t was. told Maxine, or mebby Max inc told Sylphie-anyhow, one told the other that she wasn't no better than she ort to be. And Maxine. or Sylphie, whichever it was. got sorter fussy about it. and answered that she was too, and she didn't care who knew it! And then they kind O tied in on each other and went round and round as 1t were, and 1t took 'em quite while after 1t was over to wash the hetchup and broken glass out of their coffers, as they call their hair. But that's all it amounted to, and there's no use in firin' 'em, for ladies will be ladies and there ain't no help for it." Kansas City Sun.

ECZEMA SPREAD OVER BODY

P F. D. No. 1, Lewisburg. Ky-"Fif- teen years ago I was badly affected with eczema upon my scalp first, then 1t spread all over my body and con- tinued to grow worse for four years. It began with dry rash After form ing thick scales or scabs the irritation forced me to scratch the scabs off and the hair would come out with them. Upon my face and body the sores would get infiamed and they disfig ured my face. It was worse where my clothes irritated them. The erup- ton was yellowish watery kind, sometimes bloody. In warm weather it was SC bad I was not able to work on account of the raw irritating sores on my head and body.

Yes. sir. that am de way to salvation, that am de way to get saved

DESERTED BY COLLEAGUE.
Senator Grimes Tells Why He Can Not
Support Hatfield for Governor.

Il haven't time to go into more de-
tails, but will say that DR.. Hatfield was
generally with the special interests as
against the people. If the people want
Governor who favors these things, l
have not word to say, but Isbelieve
that they are entitled to know before
voting" These are the closing words
of long explanation by State Senator
w. c. Grimes, of Marshall County, as
to why he could not support Dr. H. d.
Hatfield for Governor. Senator Grimes
and DR.. Hatfield were colleagues in the
Senate and are members of the same
political party, Senator Grimes being a
strong Republican.
DR.. Hatfeld's record as Senator is
public. Senator Grimes calls attention
to the fact that he was usually found
in opposition to progressive legislation
while in the Senate, and generally
with the special interests" The record
is public. Any interested person can
Dtind it in the Journal of'the Senate, but
Senator Grimes, Republican colleague
of Dr. Hatfield, who knows personally
bow he svoted on everything which
came up for consideration, has saved
the trouble of looking it up, when he
summarized the Doctors record. as be-
ing generally with the special interests
as against the people"
Yet DR.. Hatfield is running for Gov
crnor on the Progressive ticket, hoping
to catch the votes of real Progressives
by calling himself one.

INTENT TO COMMIT FRAUD.
That is the Charge Made Against Dr.
Hatfield by Republicans in
Congress.

1 he circumstances are all strong as
showing a deliberate intention to COM
mt fraud in the interest OF the con-
testee," is the language of the report
of the House Committee on Elections,
made to Congress in the WleyHughes
contested election case. The committee
alsd~sald: The testimony shows that
this same DR.. Hatfield was very active
in the actual conduct of the election in
Mcdowell County, and the refusal to
appoint Democratic challengers raises
strong presumption that the conduct
of the election was to be neither fair
nor honest"
This report was officially made to
the House of Representatives as the
unanimous report of the committee.
On the committee are Representatives
Solomon +. Prouty, of Iowa; Charles
Matthews, of Pennsylvania, and Frank
B. Willis, of Ohio all Republicans.
They joined with the Democrats on the
committee in making this unanimous
report, and there was ample opportunity
for them 10 have presented a minority
report if they had not concurred in the
report of the committee The report
was made after several hundred pages
of testimony had been taken and the
frauds in sMingo and Mcdowell Coun-
ties had been thoroughly considered
This is the same Hatfield who is the
Republican nominee for Governor and
is appealing to- honest voters for sup
port. And this is his endorsement by
Congressman who have investigated his
record.

CHANGES IN SCHOOL BOOKS
Milllon-DolIar Burden SaddIed Upon
West virginlans by Republican
Legislature.

This is school season, and every head
of family in West Virginia has been
called upon to provide the little ones
in his care with new school books, for
the old books are used no more. New
ones have taken their place under a
law passed by the Republican Legisla-
ture of 1909. The Democratic Legis-
lature of 1911 tried to postpone the date
when the law should take effect, hoping
to keep at least some of the old books
in use. but the Republicans in the SEN
ate prevented it, and every household
must have its new school books.
There are about 100000 persons in
the State, and as the average family
consists of five persons, there are
about 100000 families in the State.
Probably the average cost to the family
for new school books will be S4.' That
would mean cost to the parents of
school children of a million dollars.
Do not blame the Democrats for this.
1t was Republican Legislature which
passed the law changing, the school
books,

DEN0UNCES THE TARIFF.
Mr.. Roosevelt's Views Differ from
Those Of Congressional Candle dates.

Protection is vicious in theory and
harmful in practice" said Theodore
Roosevelt in his Life of Thomas H.
Benton"
We condemn the Payne-Aldrich bill
az unjust to the people," says the Ma
tional Progressive platform of 1912. Ii
adds: The Republican organization is
in the hands of those who have broken,
and can not again be trusted to keep.
the promise Of necessary downward re-
vision
The >Progressives of West Virginia
have had endorsements given for them
by w. M. o: Dawson to the Republican
nominees for Congress, who stand upon
a platform which declares: The Re
publican tariff policy has been of the
greatest benefit TO the country, develop
ing our resources, diversifying our in
dustries and protecting our working
men against competition with cheaper
labor abroad, thus establishing for our
wage earners the American standard of
living"
If man believes Mr.. Roosevelt is
right, he can not consistently vote for
the reactionary candidates for Congress
on the Republican ticket.
