Att asst.

The Wheeling Majority was COM
mended this week by many people on
being the first paper in the city to call
attention to the fact that there were
really wine rooms existing in the city.
But little attention was given to the
matter by any of the city officials. The
present investigation has proved that
the Majority was right in its conten-
ton when it said that there were
many places of this kind existing in
the city.
between the police department and the
newspaper staff. But since lit has
been proven that it is a fact and that
conditions of this kind exist, they
should get over their spell of anger.
The Majority was the first paper in
the city to have the nerve to say that
the wine rooms were in operation.

Business Mems
H. vi
Body Endorses

Action endorsing the proposed work
mems Compensation law for West
Virginia was passed by the Wheeling
Business Mems Protective Association
last Thursday evening at their regular
meeting.
President LaFlam, Treasurer Ryan
and Legislative Committee Chairman
Fisher of the Trades Assembly, ap-
peared before the business mem and
requested the endorsement. =
The action was unanimous. All the
merchants favored such law and so
expressed themselves. They did not,
however, declare in favor of any par
ticular measure, simply "just and
fair one, but they manifested much
interest in the matter, and made many
inquiries about the workings Of similar
laws in other states.

Official Vote
IUINbVAIN IENNU
Shows. Gains Of
24l Per Cent

The officially credited Debs vote in
West Virginia is 1928. The Majority
predicted $4,000. Four years ago the
vote was 3,o79. This is an increase of
241 per cent, probably the greatest in
crease of any state in the union.
The surprising thing about the vote
was its solidarity. A great effort was
made by the followers of Thompson to
swing Socialist votes from the guber-
material candidate on the plea that the
Socialist candidate for governor could
not be elected, and that Thompson
would "be better than Hatfield" It
was freely predicted, and even many
Socialists believed. that their candi-
date, for governor would run 1000 be
hind the ticket as a result of this fight
between Hatfield and Thompson, which
was resolving itself into fight be-
tween the vets and the drys. But
Hiltons' vote for governor was but 348
behind Debs. The other candidates
for state offices ran right along with
the head of the ticket.
N The Vote.
The official vote for all state ticket
candidates is as follows:

BOY HURT
AT SISKIYOU
JAMES CURRIE STRUCK BY HELP
Err ENGINE.
RIGHT LEG WAS BADLY BROKEN
Lad Had Been to Seattle Seeking
Work and Was on Way Back to
Oakland, Where People Resided
Until Recently.

James Currie, a lad Is years old,
lies at the Granite City Hospital with
compound comminuted fracture of
both bones of the right leg above the
ankle. Currie had been to Seattle
seeking work, and not finding it was
beating his way back He was struck
Monday night at SiskiyOu by helper
engine. The night was stormy and
he did not see the engine till too late
to get out of the way. The engine
crew picked him up and brought him
to the city, where he was placed in
the hospital.
The lads parents formerly lived at
Oakland, but wires to that point
brought information that they had
moved to Los Angeles. A sister liv-
ing at San Francisco was located,
however, and it is expected to reach
the parents through her DR.. Par
sons stated this morning that the boy
had a very badly broken leg, and
that while the doctors were trying
hard to save it, they might yet be
compelled to amputate the member.

TAKES HOLD
POPULAR ASHLANDER ACTING
CASHIER NOVEMBER 1.
DURING MR.. HARVEY'S ABSENCE
New Cashier Practical Banker Who
Worked His Way From Errand
Boy to Cashiership in Ottawa,
Kansas, Institution.

v. o. N. Smith, formerly of the
Carson-Smith Lumber Company of
this city, will tomorrow assume the
duties of acting cashier of the Citi-
zens' Banking & Trust Company, vice
John A. Harvey, who has taken a
leave of absence and will leave in a
cry short time for the Imperial val
ley, California, to spend the winter.
Mr.. Smith is no novice in the bank
ing business, having had twelve
years experience in the First Nation
al Bank of Ottawa, Kan. Mr.. Smith
entered the service of that bank at
the bottom and worked his way up
to the position of cashier, which held
for two years, resigning. when the
lure of the west became too strong
to be longer resisted. Since dispos-
ing of his interests in the Carson
Smith Lumber Company some
months ago, Mr.. Smith has travelled
SAlcHSINely lHIOu5H lulS part Vi lue
west, spending several weeks in the
Willamette valley looking for loca-
tion. He was unable, however, to
find any place which compared with
Ashland as home town and has re-
turned to Ashland determined to
make this his future home.
Mr.. Harvey and family expect to
leave soon, probably next week, for
their ranch in the Imperial valley.
They go in part for Mrs. Harvey's
health, physicians advising against
her remaining in cool climate dur
ing winter, and in part. that Mr. Har-
vey may still further improve his fine
ranch in that valley. The Harvey
family are widely known in this sec
tion and a host of friends hope to
see them return next spring and that
Mrs. Harey may fully recover her
health during their sojourn.

those who could not get in reach of
the victim were pelting him with
rice, flourishing old shoes or giving
the high school yell. The victim

Mr.. Butterfield has been exception

Both Mr.. and Mrs. Bqtterfield
have a host of friends in this city
who will unite with the Tidings in
wishing them long life and happi-
ness.
