Injured Badly By
Corn CuItiVatOT

A Michigan farmer was so bad
lV injured while cultivating that
he had 30 running sores. He states
that he tried many remedies and
doctors with no success and that
finally he used Aliens Ulcerine
Salve which cured up all the sores
completely. Name and address
on application.)
Aliens Ulcerine Salve is one of
the oldest remedies in America
and since 1869 has been known as
the only salve powerful enough to
reach chrome ulcers and old sores
of long standing. Because it is so
powerful it often heals burns and
scalds without a scar in remark
ably short time.
Aliens Ulcerine Salve heals
from the bottom up and draws out
the poisons. If applied on new
cuts and sores 1t heals in oLe-third
the time that common salves and
liniments take. Sold by 7. j.

druggists. Adv.

Lively Fight for the Location Of
High School

A lively fight for the location
of the high school is being waged
this week, the main contenders
in the race being the towns of
Arnoldsburg, Grantsville and Mt.
Zion. Each of the places are in
the fight TO secure the building
and valuable inducements have
been and will be offered. In a
letter to the Grantsville News
last week j. w. Pell, of this
place, offered a site of four acres
on his farm across the river from
here. There are other sites
which will be publicly offered at
or near Grantsville at a later
time, it is reported. 1t is said
that both Arnoldsburg and Mt.
Zion are ready to offer free sites
and to make other inducements.
1t promises to be a lovely scrap
from start to finish.

Bryan Praises Wilson

Washington. d. c., June IT,
Asserting that preparedness pro-
vokes rather than prevents war,
and that the upheaval in Europe
was the result of the false phil
osophy that might makes
right" former Secretary Bryan,
today. in the second of his series
of three statements on THE
Causeless War;" submits argu.
ments against military prepare
ton by the United States and
praises the course of President
Wilson in the international emer-
gency.
If any nation is without ex-
cuse for entering into the mad
rivalry with the belligerent ma
tons in preparing for war, it is
the United States" said Mr..
Bryan. 1--WE are protected on
either side by thousands of miles
of ocean and this protection is
worth more to us than any num-
Der of battleships.
we have additional protection
in the fact known to everyone
that we have men with whom to
form an army of defense if we
are ever attacked and it is known
also that we have the money,
too.
Happy for our nation that we
have in the White House at this
time a President who believes in
setting the world good exam
pie, which follows the bad ex.
ample which it sets in this mat
ter"

Debt Case Lost

AS forecasted in an editorial in
this newspaper last week, the
Supreme Court of the United
States has settled a debt of a lit
tie more than $12,OOO,OOO upon
West Virginia, and since the
Hatfield administration is sue
ceeding SO admirably in spending
all the money upon which they
can get their hands, it now be-
comes necessary to hold a fourth
session of the legislature to raise
more money.
Of course, there is such a con-
tingency as West Virginia re-
pudiating the debt, and some
lawyers say that the state could
not be forced to pay the old Vir-
GINA claim, but no honest citizen
would hardly tolerate such a
course, we believe.
While the legislature has held
three sessions during the year
with the knowledge that the
debt case was surely against the
state, no effort was made to leg
islate to take care of the contin-
gency that has now arisen. 1t
is to be hoped that some salts
factory method can be found to
take care of the big debt without
a much greater tax increase.
But the present legislature has
shown so little legislating ability
until the most people are almost
in despair of relief from that
source.
1t is a deplorable state into
which this Hatfield administra-
ton has led the people of West
Virginia. Spencer Reporter.

put up men of respectable character
or lose the women'S vote
BECAUSE
1t would increase woman's influence.
Mrs. Mary c. c. Bradford, OF Colora-
do, says: Instead Of women's infiu-
ence being lessened by the ballot, it is
greatly increased. Last year there
were so many members of the Legisla-
ture with bills that they wanted the
club women to endorse that the
Social Science department of the
State Federation had to sit one day
each week to confer with those legis-
lators who were seeking our endorse
ment Club women outside the suffrage
states do not have this experience"
BECAUSE
it would help those women who need
help the most. Theodore Roosevelt
recommended woman suffrage in his
message to the New York Legislature
On being asked why he is reported
to have answered that many women
have very hard time, working
women especially, and if the ballot
would help them, even a little, he was
willing to see it tried Mrs. Maud
Nathan, President of the National
consumers League. says: My exper-
fence in Investigating the condition of
women wage-earners warrants the as
sertion that some of the evils from
which they suffer would not exist if
women had the ballot. In the
states where women vote, there is far
better enforcement of the laws which
protect working girls
BECAUSE
1t is maxim in war: ALWAYS do the
thing to which your adversary partic-
ularly objects Every vicious inter.
est in the country would rather con-
tinue 10 contend with woman's indi.
rect influence than try to cope with
woman's vote.
BECAUSE
experience has proved it to be good.
Women are voting, literally by hun
dreds of thousands, in Scandinavia,
Great Britain and the United States.
In all these places put together, the
opponents have not yet found a dozen
respectable men who assert over their
own names and addresses that the re-
suits have been bad, while scores OF
prominent men and women testify
that 1t has done good. An ounce OF
fact is worth a ton of theory.

lawyer and advocate by the de-
partment Of justice, by the Unit
ed States supreme court and by
the bar generally. No man in
public life at this time has grown
faster in the regard of public Of
ficials here than has Mr.. Davis
since he came to this city four
years ago. Upon him rested the
burden of the Archbold i'm
parchment proceeding, the heavy
work Of the house judiciary COM
mittee and the Sims-Glover in
vestigation.
His elevation to the solicitor
generalship was heralded as one
of the best appointments the
President made. The conduct of
Mr.. Davis, whose official practice
is almost wholly before the SUI
preme court, has been very sue
cessful.
1t cannot be said that the Pres
ident has made up his mind TO
appoint Davis to the premiership
or that he has approached the
solicitor general upon the subject,
but it is believed that close
friends of the Executive have
given him to understand that no
mistake would be made if the
West Virginian should be named.
1t so happens that the border
states of Maryland, West Virgin
la and Kentucky have no repre-
sentation in the cabinet Geo
graphically, therefore, the Davis
appointment would seem to meet
with favor.

Davis to Take Bryan'S Place

Washington, June ia re-
port that President Wilson was
giving serious consideration to
the qualifications of Solicitor
General John w. Davis for the
post of secretary of state was in
circulation here today.
No confirmation of this came
from White House circles, but so
many people heard of it from so
many different sources that the
opinion is general in administra-
ton quarters that the question
had come up in the Presidents
mind and is sticking there.
For days it has been intimated
by many of the Presidents
friends that the appointment
would be offered to Col. E. M.
House of New York and Texas.

and friend and it is not all un-

Becker Must Pay Penalty

Albany, N. Y, June 18. The
court of appeals today denied the
application of counsel for Charles
Becker, the former New York
police lieutenant, for a reargu-
ment on its decision affirming
sentence Of death.
Becker convicted of inspiring
the murder of Hermann Rosen-
thai, a New York gambler, now
is in the Sing Sing death house
sentenced to die in the electric
chair with the week beginning
July IL.
Unless Governor Whitman par
doris him or the United States
supreme court interferes he must
die. Little hope is expressed by
Becker or his friends that the
federal court will act favorably.
Neither do they believe that the
governor who prosected the
former police officer will be in
clined to grant clemency.
There was no written opinion
in the case handed down today.
The court merely denied the APP
plication.
Becker's attorneys averred in
