HIGH AND AND YOST
HOLD WINNING HAND

o.
siderlng the action OF the McIntire-
McCaskey faction rude and undigni-
fed, to say the least, prepared a
cross bill answer praying for coun-
ter Injunction against the plaintiff.
Judge Willis granted the Injunction
and the Progressives were literally
throttled in the very midst of their
attempt to get out the Bull Moose
organ.
1t is stated that Jim McTntire and
Jim McCaskey were in the very act
of printing the editorial section OF
the Tribune when the constable no.
titled them of the restraining order.
The action of Yost and Highland
came as a thunderbolt to the Moose
men, who had Just about scored a
victory over the Regulars.
Starbuck. who as former propri-
etor of the Tribune, sold his lease
and publishing right to Yost, there
by setting the Macks out in the
street. so to speak, has arranged to
publish another newspaper in the
city. The initial copy viii be of tie

In the Legal Game over the
Wetzel Tribune at New
Martinsville.

A recent edition of the sistersvil'e
OIL Review gives the following very
interesting review of a newspaper
scrap over in Wetzel county:
The newspaper war In Wetzel
county has resolved itself into one
of the most interesting and amusing
in the history of the state. The
master hand" Cecil B. Highland,
still holds the winning cards, but no
man knoweth what may fash upon
the scene next.
We stated in a recent story con-
corning the muddle in the Wetzel
county newspaper world that the
Mack and Mackens were doing all
in their power to secure an injunc-
ton to restrain Yost, the purchaser
of the Tribune lease, from Issuing a
paper. This they finally accomplished,
Judge Lynch. OF Clarksburg, giving
the necessary paper. The writ Of
injunction came too late to prevent
Yost and Highland from getting one
edition of the Tribune in the mails.
However, their Joy was doomed to
he short lived as no sooner
had they been restrained from is
suing the paper than steps were
taken to hold up work on the part OF
the other faction.
