burden rests on ft5to prove contrfbu-
tory negligence on the part of the
person injured. Where there - con-
hict in the evidence In either aspect,
It is for the jury 70 determine. from
all the facts and circumstances OF
each particular case, whether plaintiff
has right to q recovery therein.
g. The testimony OF one witness,
who denies that q railroad whistle
was sounded on given occasion, Is
as positive evidence as the testimony
OF another who affirms the fact. where
each has equal opportunity Of hearing
and the attention Of the former be-
cause OF special circumstances is
equally drawn with that Of the latter
to the sounding of the whistle. The
denial by the one and the affirmance
by the other produces conflict of evil
dence, which it Is the province of the
jury to determine.

to a jury. and a verdict upon con-
hicting evidence rendered, the court
will not disturb It's findings, unless
plainly wrong or manifestly against
the weight of the evidence.

The ElIgenic Marriage Law.

The apparent deadlock In Wiscon-
sin over the amendment to the mar
rfage law requiring physicians GER
tiftcate as a condition for marriage
license has been broken. for the pres
ent,y at least, by the decision of the
Milwaukee county circuit court that
the law is unconstitutional and void.
The matter was brought before the
circuit court on an application for
writ OF mandamus, directed against
the county clerk, ordering him to is
sue marriage license to an applicant
without a health certificate. The court
held that the amount of fee provided
for the examinations as required by
law was unreasonably low, and that
the law was an undue interference
with personal liberty. This decision,
while only that of circuit court, will
act as a stay to the enforcement of
the law until the higher courts have
passed on the question. Probably no
other topic has inspired so large an
amount of new per comm ent In tIlt3
past month. e. 5
According to Jotirna 81 ne

ture efforts to crystalize hastily

Good Roads and Farming,

In trying to convince others that
bad roads are not uninvtting to the
young farmers of the state. the Pres
ton News, answering a recent obser-
walton to the contrary in the Te1e-
gram, says:
"A young man on.a farm, the farm
conditions being favorable, makes but
scant living"
That depends, of course, upon both
the young man and the farm. There
are lazy young men and ambitious
young men; bad farms and good ones.
The points raised by the Telegram,
however. are not only what the young
farnaer happens to be doing now but
what it Is possible for him to do un-
der more promising and favora BILE
conditions; and il he can do better
in other states than the land and the
roads will do for him in this one, the
chances are that he will emfgrate
when he has the opportunity. Put a
system of good roads through this
state and see how quickly a splen did

The News. however, may have
dreams Of deyeloping the farming mn
terests Of West Virginia with its
present abomfnable roads. which are
impa ssfble two thirds OF the year; but
IL IL has. no one should have the
cruelty to arouse It from its slumber-
The Telegram opines that experts
of the college OF agriculture at the
West Virginia university will not
agree with the News's declaration
that "a young man on a farm, the
farm conditions being favorable.
makes but a scant living" These ex-
perts have been telling us, with some
show OF truthfulness, that, with fav-
orable conditions, the young man on
the farm today has about every body
else beaten block In opportunities
for moneymaking.
1t is but fair to point out that the
News, In opposing the Telegram
contention, is OF the track. The 7Fele-
gram did not consider the young
farmers who were leaving the farms
for other vocations, but those who are
leaving the farms and the bad roads
OF this state for the farms and the
good roads of other sections; and
therein lay the, moral.

a GOOD Buying Tine.

a very sensible and timely sugges-
ton for those who are trying to solve
problems connected with the soaring
price of living few of US are not
lis Nh hecWh eeling News in
calling "a ftol to the Opportunities
OF purchasfhg goods when they are
offered at their lowest possible pric-
es This time is right at hand when
the merchants are compelled to clear
their shelves for the change of sea-
sons-something they have to do
weeks in advance of the actual
change i'll order to be prepared for it.
Says the News:
There are some people who com
plain bitterly about the high cost of
living, while they pay too little atten-
ton to the opportunities for reducing
expenses announced in any of our is
sues in the retail advertising.
The great majority OF the public is
by this time thoroughly educated up
to the idea of watching the store news
in the papers, and buying from the
bargains thereg reported. But while
nearly every one reads this adyertis-
ing yet some people are too procrasti-
mating to plan their purchases in ad-
vance. They persist-in7 buying at the
top of the market. q
PeopIegWho feel motives of thrift,
however, must realize that February
is sine time to buy goods. There
are few merchants who do not cut
prices to reduce stocks. People who
consistently plan to take advantage
of these reductions can carry the
burden of household expenses much
more easily

) Tbe worst Evil Of Divorce.

1t is 3. source of qualification that
one phase OF. the divorce evil is at
last being taken into serious consider
alton, namely. the fate Of, the limo
cent children who are probably the
principal sufferers therefron$and Who
are entitled to the privilege OF being
properly fitted for life-a privilege
oftimes denied them because of the
breaking up of their home. This
phase of the question has too long
been overlooked. 1t is being consid-
cred In Chicago, however, and an ex-
change directs attention to it with an
outline of the work planned.
AS ill-considered marriages are the
cause of most divorces and as thou
sands of boys and girls every year go
to ruin because their parents have
been divorced and their homes blok-
en- up, says this exchange, all good
people will hope for the success OF
the chief justice and associate juas
tees of the circuit court AT Chicago,
the sheriff and clerk of Cook county,
the clerk of the circuit court and six
other prominent citizens who are
trying to prevent haSty marriages.
At meeting which these gentle
men held last week, Chief Justice
Petit advocated the establishment 81
bureau to keep social register
with a card index system containing
the court record OF every person in
Cook county who has ever been entan-
gIed in any domestic difficulties or
criminal proceedings In Chicago there
is what is known as marriage court
whose chief business is to try to rec
oncile entranged husbands and wives
and get them to live together again in
peace and harmony.
According to the, plan as outlined
by Chief Justice Petit, only the oftlc-
ef or the marriage court would have
access to the social register which Is
proposed to keep. ALI the c1ergym en-
Of the city would be asked to- cooper
ate with the bureau in refusing to
marry persons whom they do not
know. unless the applicants bring
with them a certificate from the So
cial bureau.
{ At the meeting Chief Justice Petit
said that half the boys arrested for
isder1eanors- fn Chicago and half
the young kris who go wrong. are the
children of parents who have been
divorced. The evils of divorce could
hardly be more eIoQuently stated
than the simple recital of these facts
by a judge of long experience who
tells what he knows and nothing else.

CHARLESTON. Feb. 4-That the

The Seventh division is composed
of the national guard of the state OF
Pennsylvania, and the Eighth division
the national guard of the states OF
West Virginia, Virginia, District of
Columbia, Maryland, Delaware and

ceived by Adjutant General Charles D.
Elliott the Seventh division is to con-

for an attack on Washington, while
the Eighth division, to which West
Virginia belongs; Is TO concentrate IN
The vicinity Of Washington to oppose
the landing and defend Washington.

mean that there will be no encamp-

tor rifle practice which will in all
probability be held just preceding the

At the present tinf3 there are but
twenty companies f1f&tffts Statea This
is four companies less than is re-

In a letter to the adjutant general OF
this state the time has been extended,
to permit the Organization of four
additional companies so that tull

the efficiency OF the West Virginia
national guard General Mills. chief of
staff, informed General Elliott that
the "creditable condition of the or

we'll known to the secretary OF war
who therefore views with pleasure the
organization of additional companies.
