many residents Of this section
that the Eastern Panhandle and
the adjacent counties have never
been much more than political
nonenities, ever sitting below
the salt at the political feasts of
the state, and even medicants at
the portals, and this has served
TO breed rancor, disappointment

Story Alarming if True

Martinsburg, w. Va, July %
Leading residents Of the East
ern Panhandle of West Virginia,
comprising the counties of JEFF
ferson, Berkeley and Morgan,
have become within the past few
days become aware that the
proposition for West Virginia to
spare" the Virginia debt case
by ceding TO the mother state
several of the eastern border
counties is really being seriously
considered and discussion of the
deal" is rapidly coming to the
seething point throughout this
section.
The first definite and authori;-
tative int ormation in West Vir-
ginia was brought to this section
u day or two ago by a high and
well known state official. Since
that time searchinf inquiry has
been made by leading men of
this section with the result that
the confirmation of the deal
has been received.
Two PROPOSITIONS
1t was further developed that
two separate propositions of the
same character We're being con-
sidered-o involving h e
counties Of Greenbrier Tin which
is located the magnificent and
costly White Sulpher Strings re-
sort, by the c. q o. +. r. Coz
Monroe, Runners and Mercer,
and the second proposition in
yolving the counties of Jefferson,
Berkeley, Morgan, Hampshire
and Hardy. 1t was further
stated that the proposition had
its inception with high officials
of the Chesapeake & Ohio Rail
road, and that they were infu-
enced in raking a hand in the
deal" by reason of the fact
that if Greenbrier county re-
mains in West Virginia their

sort, patronized by the wealth.

million dollars are being invested,

MUNSEY AGAIN URGES
MOOSE-G. O. P. COMBINE
Hoped Progressives Would See
Common Sense in Plan.

NEW YORK, Jan. 14.-Under the
head "Amalgamation No. 2" Frank
A Munsey prints in today's Press
a second article on the fusion of the
Republican and Progressive parties.
He says In part:
II hadn't a very large measure of
confidence in the idea being gracious
~ and favorably received by the Re-
publicans. I fancied the Progress
sives would see in it some practical
common sense.
1.-THE evidence, as it comes in from
the whole country, reveals the Re-
publicans as in receptive mood
anxiously receptive, for the most part
for political union. if it can be
brought about in a mutually satisfac-
tory way. On the other hand, the
Progressives, for the most part, to
judge from the evidence I have,
turn a cold shoulder on the idea of
amalgamation of any kind.
'Amalgamation. or none-amalgama-
ton, is a matter of temperament and
of Individual opinion. Speaking for
myself, I am convinced that the desir-
able thing to do. the common sense
thing to do, and the safe thing to do
in the present situation, is to weld
the scattered units of men thinking
alike into one organization that will
have bigness and yirility and power
power to contest the field successful
ly with the Democratic party.

WANT POLICE TO
INSPECT GARBAGE
Would Better Disposal of
Refuse, Say Clinton Hill
lnprovers.

The Clinton Hill Improvement
Association will. in few days, send
a petition to the Board of Works ask
ing that the inspection of garbage be
made by the police. This will follow
the associations action of last night,
when the members advanced the idea
of disseminating the use of the pres
ent inspectors and letting the police
take the job.
The organization takes the stand
that inspection of the transfer of
refuse and its disposal comes within
the duties of the police department.
Activity of the police in this line, the
improvers say, would serve as a
check on the contractors who dispose
of the refuse.
DR.. William L. Bleick, of the school
committee, spoke on the need of an
other school building in Runyon
street, between Belmont and Hillside
avenues, in the Clinton Hill section
The association adopted a resolution
favoring a wood block pavement for
Broad street, providing it is laid this
year. The date for the annual BAN
auet was set for Thursday, April IL.
