FAIRMONT FAIR.

The tendency this fall is for an
all round fair. 1t is now positive
ly known that the display of live
stock will be larger than has ever
been thown in Fairmont before;
that Exposition Hall will be filled
with more exhibits than have
been offered therein the past; that
theracing, the midway and is fact
every feature will be better.
There will be little difference
in the daily program. The ia
nous First Regiment Band will
arrive at the grounds daily before
noon and will start things going
with it's concerts. Then there
will be the racing intersperced
with the free acts, making con-
tinuous entertainment until dark.
On Thursday there will be the
cavalcade of the live stock which
should be interesting this fair
for the reason that there will be
hundreds of more head on the
grounds than ever before.
The six years of experience in
giving fairs, gained by the Off
Gals of the Fairmont association
has trained them sufficiently to
have things ready and the bit
show will start off just as adver-
tised on Tuesday.

Coos county, New Hampshire, as
sumed this afternoon the familiar
aspect of uncertainty, and delay.
Lawyers working for and against
his return to the asylum agreed
not to arraign him before a public
magistrate until A p: m. and then
to adjourn the case until to-
morrow.
He is charged with conspiring
with others to bring about his
escape from Matteawan and it is
upon this charge that William
Travers Jerome will seek his ex-
tradition.
Failing in this Jerome will con-
tend that Thaw is insane and
should be turned over to an at
tendant from Matteawan.

but what is intended to broaden
and strengthen and give greater
assurance to ercialinterests
in this great land.
1t is true that it is intended
to prohibit speculation, and | for
one have been a strong advc cate
and favored this measure. caer
not whether the speculation is in
the stock market of New York
or the cotton exchange of New
Orleans; care not whether the
speculation is for the control Of
the money market, or whether it
is intended to control the bread
stuff in Chicago, | am unalterab-
ly opposed to any system that has
for its object the interference
and destruction of the natural
laws of supply and demand.
IF you permit the ito n
grower of the south to borrow
money on his cotton for the pur-
pose of bulling the cotton market,
then / am opposed to it just as
much as am to permitting the
grain growers of the west to Dor
row money upon his crop for the
purpose of forcing the market
upward and destroying the natur-
al conditions of the laws of sup
ply and demand.
"a part of my district is a
coal-bearing district, and you
might as we'll say that the coal
barons would be permitted to
borrow money upon their coal at
the mouth of their mines, or in
the bins of the great cities of
this continent, and hold it for the
purpose of forcing up the price
of coal and wringing from the
poorer classes in the cities a high
price for fuel to keep them warm.
God forbid that the American
government should ever get be-
hind any man or set Of men who
want to withhold their products
in order to force them to a slim
ulated and fictitious prices.
IF the government is compell-
ed to loan money on cotton it
should be compelled to loan it the
same on coal. If the great pro-
ducts of cotton, corn, wheat, to-
bacco and whiskey can borrow
money upon their products from
this government with a view of
forcing up the price, why should

same privilege?
1t is a dangerous principle to
advocate, and | would not justly
represent my constituency If |
favored a bill that would enable
the cotton grower to withhold
his product and destroy the ma
tural law of supply and demand,
when that very fact would in
crease the price charged for the
finished products to my humble
constituent who works either in
the mine or upon the farm. You
ask me to help you to vote to
overthrow one of the great fund
mental principles of commercial
transactions, the law of supply
and demand. If you force slim
ulated and fictitious price upon
cotton, the same can be done
with wheat; it can be done with
corn; it can be done with wood;
it can be done on coal; yes, every
commodity produced in the world
and | for one will never favor a
bill that has for it's purpose the
destruction and overthrow Of this
great natural law and increasing
the cost of food and clothing to
the ultimate and final consumer.

withhold my consent, while, on
the other hand. | will always be
found ready and willing with a
consecrated purpose to help light
en- the burdens of toll, | care not

BELINCTON SCHOOL
OPEN SEPT. 18TH


school bell will call the girls and
boys of Belington back to to the
school-room after four months
vacation four months full of
fun, work and play which will
send the pupils back t 0 their
work full of energy and courage
for the work that lies before
them.
The school outlook for Being
ton was never brighter than the
present, and the people of Bel
ington should be justly proud of
their new High School building
and Grammer school which they
are to have.
Both o f these buildings are
modern and up to date in archi-
lecture.
A furnace has been installed in
the basement of tn Grammer
school on the West Side and the
hot air system of heating and
ventilating will be in use in these
schools for the first time in the
history of Belington.
Many other changes have been
made in cloak and toilet rooms
changes which mean sanitation
and convenience.
One o f the greatest change
which counts for sanitation is the
installing of t h e Overlooking
fountain to accommodate the pu-
pills with drinking water, thus
doing away with the spigot which
was often a source of great annoy
ance when some "Peck's Bad
Boy" wanted to have "a little
fun" and would stop the drain
pipe with a paper wad, quietly
turn the value, and as quietly,
with look full of innocence walk
into his room and wait for the
teacher to be called forth to find
a Niagara flowing down the stair
case; it also does away with the
private drinking cup.
All t,.ese changes show that
the people of Belington have a
progressive Board of Education
who are on the lookout for the
best things in use in order to
bring them to the girls and boys
of their little mountain city.
The teachers for the West Side
building are as follows: Principal,
E. A. Hunt, Sherman Polling, 7th
grade, j. M. McVicker 9th grade,
j. Russell Roe, 5th grade. Miss
FELTON,, 4th grade, Miss Seva
Wilmoth, 3rd grade, Miss Goldie
'lScott, End grade, Miss Idleman
and Miss Snodgrass, first grades.
These teachers need no word
of comment as most, if not all OF
them, are we'll known to the peo-
pie of Belington.
1t will be noticed that we are
to have two primary rooms this
year. One of these rooms will be
in the new High School building.
This arrangement was made IN
order to accommodate the little
children of the East Side, thus
avoiding the danger of crossing
the railroad tracks.

William Kent, congressman from the first California district. is of the opin- lon that the Monroe doctrine is obso- lete and that 1t should have been abandoned more than 50 years ago. Mfr. Kent has given twofold expres- sion to his disapproval of a policy which most Americans regard as sa cred as the bill of rights.
 He has caused to be published fir the Congressional Record and a public document an essay denunciatory of the Monroe doctrine. written by O profes- sor at Yale.
 That none might be in doubt as tC his personal attitude. MT. Kent has sent this essay with letter of indOrse- ment to all the members of congress And in an interview he is quoted as saying:
 Tt would have been n good thing fl France had taken Mexico in the sixties, beca use then we would have had good neighbors now instead of a lot of hyenas."
 It is true that our Mexican neigh bors are troublesome. Thousands of good Americans will insist that Mir. Rents "hyena" designation Is not too strong for amny of them.
 Dut concession of all that Is no re- pudiation of the Monroe doctrine. He is but an indifferent statesman who
 will permit his disgust with the Mex ican situation to make him an enemy
 of the policy that has preserved the republican form of government on the
 American continent.
 Some of the peoples of Latin Amer
 lea may have failed to attain even
 an approximation of the highest ideals
 of self government. The Monroe doc l urine has given them the right and the
 Opportunity to strive for those Ideals.
 President Cleveland's splendid as- ] sertion of the Monroe doctrine in the Venezuelan controversy stands out. and will stand out. in history as the biggest accomplishment of n president whose right to rank with the nntion's greatest men is now freely conceded San Francisco Call.
