Announcement has just been
made by the state authorities that
the three camps of convict road
workers, consisting of nearly 80
men, will continue the work on the
roads of Peasants, Kanawha and
Berkeley counties throughout the
coming winter. CONTRARY to gen.
eral belief the men will not be
taken back to the state prison at
Moundsville at any time during
the winter, but will be continued
in their camps, working when the
weather will permit them to do
so.
When the men were taken out
by the counties the contracts with
the state were for the use Of the
men for a period of one year. In
preparation for winter, wooden
floors are being placed in the tents
at the three camps heavy wooden
blankets have been ordered and
other preparations are being made
for camping throughout the win
ter.
The fact that the men cannot
work much on the roads during a
great part of the winter will make
the winter camp more of lark
than task for the for the con-
victs; most of whom are said to be
jubilant over the prospects OF
spending the winter in camp.
Reading matter in abundance
will be provided for the days
when road work is impc ssible,
and a general good time is looked
forward to The progress on the
three roads so far Is said to be
excellent.
One other good feature connect
ed with wintering the convicts
in camps is the relief it will give
at the penitentiary. The institu-
ton is already overcrowded, and
the return of the road workers
would make the housing of the
convicts a very serious problem.

The Cumberland Daily News,
Republican, } has the following
to say editorially:
1--WE are moving on, steadily on,
toward prosperity. From every
direction comes the self-same
story that American energy and
American ingenuity are breaking
through barriers. We have be-
gun to rely on ourselves for many
things we have heretofore leisur-
" allowed foreigners to provide
for us. We can manufacture
more of our own cotton goods
than ever before, instead OF hav-
ing Liverpool do it for US and for
the world. We can make bagg-
ing out of cotton instead of de-
pending helplessly on burlaps
from the orient. One of our SUBJ
stantial New England mills an
nounces that it will use ST., 000,-
600 worth of cotton in bagging.
The American Wooden Company
can re-establish and intrench it
self with American products long
before foreign competition can
reach it; the American Hosiery
Company can do the same. So
with theAmerican glove industry.
The story could be told a humid
red times, affecting as many lines
of American development. Each
in its way is fighting it's own battle
men Of foresight and of courage
thrill with thought of the great
opportunity before them. There
is spirit among our manufactur-
ers and merchants that is bound
to carry US into period of I'M
equaled prosperity. 1t is not a
smooth road to travel. but what
of that? 1t is not short road
to travel, but what of that? 1t
is worthwhile road to travel,
and no American of resolute
spirit and fixed purpose hesitates
to travel it. The march to Pros
perity has begun!."

A suggestion to the county
court: Why not make prepare
tons to secure convicts from the
penitentiary next year to work on
the road Of the county? We are
informed t at some Of the roads
are in pretty bad shape and
this labor can be secured at a very
reasonable price. In fact cheap
er than other men can be secur-
ed. The convict camps in other
sections of the state we are in
formed have proved a success. Wo
believe that our county court
would make no mistake if they
would look into the matter. The
farmers of the county should
have better and more roads.

CITY MARSHAL 8
SALARY MAY Be
RAISED TO 500

A proposition to increase the city
marshals salary from SIS to 500 a
month will probably be taken up by
the Board of Aldermen in conJunc-
ton with the plan to increase the
salary of the recorder. Alderman
John J. Clark has advanced and laid
before other city fathers a scheme
to abolish all fees in connection with
the position Of city marshal and raise
the salary to 500 a month. 1t is
being considered by members of the
council and may become one of the
topics of discussion at the next COM
mittee meeting of the aldermen to
be held Friday night.
An ordinance to provide for an
increase in the recorders salary had
been prepared for introduction at
the last council meeting. 1t was not
introduced in view of a movement to
consider other salary increases, it is
stated by members of the Board Of
Aldermen. When discussion on the
proposition to increase the recorder s
salary came up at the last committee
meeting, Mr. Clark advanced the Idea
of increasing the city marshars pay
and abolishing the fee system in con-
nection with his office. 1t Is pointed
out that the city marshal receives
no fees for conveying insane persons
to the state hospital at Trenton.
There have been other movements
for salary increases, prominent
among which was one for boosting
the mayors salary back to $1,000 a
year, where it was when former
Mayor Albert Bollschweiler held
office. No action has been taken as
yet to raise the mayors salary. 1t is
declared unlikely that there will be
further moves for increasing salaries
in the Board Of Aldermen. A major
ity OF the city fathers have expressed
themselves as being adverse to grant
ing any increases at this time.

the last hours of the season, but will
be given especial attention, receive
unusual bargains and have your pick

be able to save your carfare to and

pleasant, in avoiding the rush, but al
so highly profitable.
Last Wednesdays Sales Big.
Last Wednesday was the biggest
Suburban Day the merchants have
yet experienced, and they look for
big things the coming Wednesday. Su-
burban Day last week was particular
ly marked by the large volume of pa
irons who crowded the stores during
the late afternoon and evening. Be-
ing the day before Thanksgiving and
also Suburban Day made it one

Fare after fare was refunded by
the NEWS ON behalf of the merchants
to customers last Wednesday, and all
seemed pleased at the proflt-sharing

after week by progressive storekeep-
ers in this city. Some commented on

riod, but not one day every week, as
