Electric Power
For ANY Purpose

1t makes no difference what use you have for a power
drive, Central Station Electric Power will fill your wants.
If you need a thousand-horse energy to operate pom
derous machines you can get it. The same is true if you want
only a fraction of onehorsepower to run a delicately balanced
piece of mechanism.
One of the great advantages of Central Station drive over
other methods is its ~Aexibilty. And it is this very quality
which helps to make electric power more economical than
steam.
You pay only for the energy you need and put to profit
able use. You cannot do this with a steam plant With steam
drive you pay for wasted energy and wasted fuel.
Let our representative give you figures, founded on actual
results in other plants, and show you what electric drive would
do for you. A card or phone call will bring him to your Office.

B. & o. Railroad Officials Visit
Lexington This Week

A number Of officials of the Balti
more and Ohio Rally way Company Wis
tied Lexington this week, and made
investigation OF the proposed i'm.
provement and enlargement of the
union station here.
The party included President
Daniel Willard of the Baltimore and
Ohio, President L. F. Loree of the
Baltimore and Ohio South western,
Mr.. George Fl. Campbell, assistant
to President Willard, General Man
ager c. W. Galloway. General Sup
erintendent F. E Blaser. and Diyi.
sion Superintendent ]. e. Spurrier,
besides several minor officials.
Plans for the enlargement and i'm
provemeDt of the union station have
practically been agreed upon, and
when completed Lexington will be
we'll provided with depot facilities.
separate rooms will be provided for
white and colOred passengers. ad.
dltionai space will be devoted to
freight traffic, and greater platform
facilities constructed.
Some of the problems confronting
tue officials were want CT space for
proper improvements and lack of
level ground around the station to
accommodate the buildings needed.
With sufficient room a freight depot
would probably be erected so that
the present depot could be used as
passenger station. This plan was
precluded by reason of the topo-
graphy Of the ground. So the al
tentative presented itself that the
present station will have to be en-
arged.
Assurances were also given that
he road5ed between Lexington
Ind Harrisonburg would be ballast.
ID and put in the best possible con.
iition, and this work has already
begun.

Wilson and Marshall Club Formed
Monday Afternoon

"A meeting of the Woodrow viii
son Club was held in the Court
house Monday afternoon at 4 o clock
when that club was merged into the
Wilson and Marshall Club, with the
following officers:
Colonel Hunter Pendleton, presi.
dent; Mr.. T. S. Burwell, secretary
and treasurer; Messrs. Robert Cat
lett, j. L. Campbell, Jr., w. A. An
dersop, Baxter A. OFT and DR.. Rob.
ert Glasgow, vice presidents. The

the president, secretary-treasur
and the following gentlemen: Hon.
FL. st. George Tucker, DR.. ]. H.
Latane. Mayor E. S. Shields, Messrs.
+. L. Graham, NJ. W. Paxton, II. A.
White, G. A. Jones, ]. E. McCau-
ley.
Following the organization CT the
club Colonel Pendleton introduced
Mr. Tucher, who spoke for some
time of incidents of the National
Democratic Convention in Balti-
more. Mr.. Tucker declared that
William Jennings Bryan was the
central figure in the convention.
The Nebraskan was in fine voice and
splendid form and easily dominated
the convention, and never before
had the great Commoner's power
been felt TO such degree.
Mr.. Tucker said the convention
was laborious and exciting, and the
delegates we're a body OF good ma
tured fellows, striving to nominate
the best and strongest man. A pc
culiar situation was presented the
day that Governor Wilson was nom.
mated. Mr.. Bryan had said that a
whose nomination depend
ed on the votes OF New York was
omed to defeat. When Illinois
decided to support Governor Will
son, New YOrk's ninety votes would
have nominated him. There was a
1uiver OF excitement all over the
hall as New York's name was being
in the roll-call. Just
hen Mr. Bankhead, Mr.. Under
woods manager, went to the plat
orm and withdrew Mr.. UNDERWORLD
lame and released his delegates.
There was then break for Cover
Tor Wilson and his nomination was
without the support OF New {
York.

Some Objectionable Features at East
Lexington

Lexington
DEAR Mr. EDITOR: Will you allow
me small space in your paper that
l may call the towns attention to a
rev conditions that exist on North
hiVer at the boat house? | refer To
the young men and boys coming
'nere to battle, which would be per
'ectly ali right if they wore bathing
suits and would have some conven.
lent place to dress an undress other
tnan In plain view of our families.
ana some do not have bathing suits
at all. And yet this is permitted
ior seems to be) right here in plain
view, within less than two hundred
yards OF our young girls and moth
erS.
Let me ask, where are our police?
And what are they for? Are thew
mere IN their blue uniforms and
orass buttons merely for a decora-
'.on 70 our town or are they here to
protect our mothers, sisters and our
children from the insult of these
villains that have not respect
enough for themselves TO act as gen
tlemep? Which?
Not only that condition exists
but the oaths that are used there
sometimes would shock aman. Yet
tney do occur almost every dav
right In the corporate limits of
Lexington and in the presence of
our families here on North River.
know that the police know of the
CONDITION that exists, because |
myself, besides several others. have
called their attention to the fact
Yet what has been their answer?
Merely this: Well, if you don't
want them to battle there in the
presence of your families in Natures
'arb why don't you prosecute them? 4
ND don bother our police with il
n something to that effect as thew
yak OIL and don't pay any attention
o what you say.
One OF them did suggest that the s
layor would handle them If we
would learn their rames and have
hem arrested. l will saw RIGHT
ere that l do believe our little
layor would do his duty and fine
hem, as some OF his former decis-
ms have shown that, but what can
e do if the police don't do their
uty? Which is to arrest those
oys for breaking the law by COM
,g in open view and bathing in
ature's garb? IS
The question is, are we going IN
ave to give up our other duties to
ecome our own police, or are those
en that the town employs and pays
# that purpose going to do their -
lty?
Well, in conclusion, l only have
us to say; If the police have any
1ergy about them let them show il
the next week or better, by break
g up this vice that has been prac-
ced here for long time by those
athers.
Yours sincerely,

MIDLAND PLEASES.

Jamestown, N. D., Nov. 29.-JaInes
Withheld of Floyd, LaMoure county,
transacted business in jamestown,
making the trip via the Midland Con-
tinental which runs within a mile and
a half of his home.
Mr.. Withheld left jamestown seven
teen years ago to make his nome
thirty miles south of here when his
nearest grain market was sixteen
ago the Northern Pacific built the
Streeter branch which brought the
markets of Judd within eight miles
Of him. Now, with the Midland Con-
tinental establishing a station close to
his farm, Mr.. Withheld figures that he
saves in hauling something like 2 to
az cents on every, bushel Of his TO-
900 bushel crop.
MIR. WithnelPs son, Eddie w, IS
years of age, has applied for letters
patent upon an automatic engine pillow
lift which it is believed will take like
wildfire among users of power plows.
Eddie Withheld has been running an
eight pillow tractor for three years and
found necessity for an improved lift
which could be operated from the
engine. He invented the very simple
device and now operates the engine
which pulls eight plows and either two
discs or W. drags and turns over
twenty-five acres a day. The expense
of n mar is eliminated by his de-
vice.
Mr.. Withheld came within twenty
votes of being elected to the legis-
lature and is now congratulating him
self that that labor viii deyolve upon

to do the work at he coming session.
