Grown in Mississippi Dinner

The Monaghan-Read Hotel on
Sunday will set grown in Mis-
slssippi dinner for the monday
meal. The management will
serve dinner that will consist
of only those things that are
raised in Mississippi as far as
possible. The state produces an
unlimited number of edibles and
on this occasion a practical dem
onstration will be made of the
vast range of those things which
Mississippians can have at home
on their tables.
The servants will be dressed in
suits made from Tupelo manu-
featured goods out of Lee county
grown cotton.
The dining hall is being elab-
orately decorated in cotton and
will put on a very attractive APP
pearance in its gala attire gath
cred from Mississippi's fertile
fields.
The we'll known reputation OF
the management assures the
guests on that occasion a sump-
tuous dinner.
The dinner will be served at so
cents.

if the market is not just right

SESSION IN ATLANTA.

Atlanta, Nov, IL The negro uucS,

ment in the White House last week,
mas Leen injected into the national
convention Of the w. G. T. U, in At
ienta through the arrival of four ne
gro women. delegates from Texas,
who were totally unexpected.
The corps of gnl ushers who have
the seating arrangement in charge,
had made no arrangement for this
delegation, and asked that the four
brunette delegates go into the s,utTy
of the Baptist Tabernacle, where the
convention is meeting. They indig-
nantly refused to be segregated,
marched down the main aisle and
found seats between two delegates
from the north, who gave the black
sisters a cordial welcome.
Just across the aisle is the Ala
l5ama delegation, and these LADIES'
were highly indignant at the .nvas-
Ion from the black belt. One of the
Alabama visitors left the hall, pack
ed her grips and returned to Ala
bama at once. 1t is reported that the
lady who heads the corps of pages
threatened to address the body on the
desirability of having northern ant
southern w. c. I. U. in future, with
two conventions if the color line is
not drawn. None of This story. by
the way, got into the Atlanta papers,
the editors lighting shy of stirring
up trouble.
The color trouble has been aug
mented by the persistent clfcrts of
several local negro women, friends Of
he Texas delegates, to enter the con
Vention and sit tcsidc their friends
It was necessary to call the nssis
lance of several men before they
could be elected. A big rumpus in
the w. c. T. L. ranks is expected to
follow. t

WE very earnestly urge the election oil
Col. Thomas E. Hodges. the Democratic
candidate for at-large, next
Tuesday. He is an ideal man for the
place-a big man in every sense OF the
word, brainy man who will make his
mark in Congress if he shall be elected 10
that body. We have no word OF diSpar-
agement for Mr.. Sutherland, his Repub-
lican opponent, but we sincerely believe
that Colonel Hodges ought to be chosen
over Mr.. Sutherland for the reason that a
Congress in full sympathy with President
Wilson in this crisis of our history is a
consummation devoutly to be desired.
As stalwart in character and principles as
he is in bodily form, Col. Hodges is a
man who can be absolutely relied upon.
Ii is as natural TO trust him as il is TO
breathe. II is assured that he will get
the full Democratic vote, for his record
in this State is one that has no flaw and
he has never been tied up with any faction.
He is worthy of any Republican or indie
pendent's vote, for he is a man who sets
the public welfare above party advantage,
and he would know no partisan line
when ii comes to serving the people.
There is no citizen ofthis State too humble
to claim his recognition, yet there is no
man big enough to boss him. When q
party puts up a man of the calibre OF Mr..
Hodges it is an indication OF better things
in the political world.
West Virginia will do herself proud if
she elects Thomas E. Hodges Congress
man. at-large next Tuesday.

THE Republican and Democratic parties
in Berkeley county have entered into
written agreement not TO use money,
promise of office, position or salary or
anything OF value to influence voters al
the election next Tuesday. No money is
to be expended other than for such pur-
poses as may be legally, legitimately and
honestly used under the laws OF the State
of West Virginia. A reward of 500 will
be paid for information leading TO the ar
rest OF any person violating the law.
The respective executive committees
agree that neither committee nor any oil
the candidates will provide money to
bring home absent voters, and only one
vehicle is to be allowed at each voting
precinct. The agreement is signed by
the chairmen and secretaries Of the two
committees, Hon. VIM. q. Brown and
Hon. Geo Nj. Bowers, Democratic and
Republican candidates for Congress, re-
spectively, and by the local candidates
upon the two tickets.
This is step that must commend itsel
TO all honest persons. The buying and
selling of votes had become such nui-
sance and scandal in Berkeley county
and it is not much better in Jefferson
that something had 10 be done to end it.
The action of the candidates and commit
tees, if honestly enforced, will prove to
be the best thing that has ever happened
in Berkeley county politics.
Incidentally, we now look for the vote
to be split about even in Berkeley.

Whiskey at the Hagerstown Fair

Editor Register-Here's an item con-
corning the recent Hagerstown fair taken
from the Hagerstown Globe, a daily
newspaper published in that city:
Women did not hesitate to patronize
the saloon yesterday, although none were
seen in the saloon. Men accompanying
them carried the liquor to the outside,
where in plain view Of the passing null
titude, women drank with the greatest
apparent indifference as to what passerS-
by thought. One woman, particularly,
was noticed, who was dressed in white
who had imbibed too much. She was a
woman of apparent refinement, but al
cohul had clogged her SensibilitieS, her
step had become unsteady, she had tread
upon and torn her dress, and had dragged
it in the mud to considerable degree.
A number Of other women were noticed
drinking beer, ETC., on the outside OF the
saloon.
They had bad luck at the Hagerstown
fair, with both rain and fire to discourage
the managers. Yet it might not be so
much hard luck as warning against such
a goddess form Of management and utter
disregard OF those higher and better
things which are claiming the attention
of right-thinking people. 1t might be
well for the fair managers to take stock
and seek an Interpretation OF the hand
writing on the wall.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

the diseased portion Of the ear. There
is only one way 10 cure deafness. and
that is by constitutional remedies. Deaf
ness is caused by an inflamed condition
of the mucous lining OF the Eustachian

have rumblng sound or imperfect hear

ness is the result. and unless the inflam-
nation can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases

(ll Accepting The platform aoo lhenanr
the second district elected "Junior" Brown
in 1910. He made good. That is the
reason why the people OF the second
district reelected him in 1912. They dio
not believe in discharging faithful and
efficient employee, so they rewarded him
by continuing him in service. The same
reason for voting TO retain his services
another two years is as convincing no"
as it was two years ago-only more So
for longer experience has made NM
much more valuable as a Congressman.
(2) AS member OF the banking and
currency committee OF the House, by
reason OF his experience as banker and
a man OF large skill in financial matters,
his was an important part in framing the
new banking and currency act, which is
one OF the epochal changes brought about
in the history OF our nations monetary
system. For his part in that great piece
of legislation he received the personal
thanks OF President Wilson and the praise
OF his colleagues. The people OF his dis
trict should be no less frank in showing
appreciation OF his important part in this
great accomplishment.
81 In the long list of achievements TO
the credit of the Congress under the guild
ance and with the counsel OF our great
President, he has record for consistent
support and unremitting energy. A rec
ord that proves him representative

OF the common people toward the ideals
OF the government.
(4) In the conduct OF the routine OF his
position the countless details which make
the office OF live-wire Congressman a
yeritable mart OF business, he has known
no partisan lines and made no distinction
among his constituents. All have been
served alike. Their individual affairs
have been promptly considered and look
ed to with interest and industry. Whether
appealed to in person or by letter, no
constituent but has been the recipient OF
prompt consideration.

business OF his constituents irrespective

times, Congressman Brown is a credit
and an honor to those who have reposed
confidence in him.
~ When the people get good men for
any public job they have to fill, why
change him for a new and untried hand ?
In the world OF business when they get

Lincoln said: "Don't swap horses when

OF common, corn-field sense, that. That
voters OF the second district should, and
doubtless will, see and accept it, and
keep "Junior" Brown at Washington TO
continue another two years to SatiSfac-
