SALARIES OF OFFICERS
FOR HARRISON COUNTY
Are Fixed at Various Amounts
in the Bill Passed to the
Third Reading.
ts..e,.t. 70 rss 7r !,

SPECIAL TO TIE TELGoRAMb
CHARLESTON,sF Feb. 13-Fish and
game and the salaries Of county of
ficers played the important roles in
the two branches OF the legislature
Friday morning. The Senate not being
satisfied with the salaries for the
sheriffs, county and circuit clerks
and prosecuting attorneys, agreed up
on certain figures in committee some
days ago. but when the bill came up
for second reading in that body
today there was a general scramble
for increases on the Republican side
and decreased on the Democratic side.
| the decrease on the Democratic side
coming from the Democratic mem
bers. presumably for campaign pur-
poses. The exceptions to this rule
ware In Marion county. where Sena-
I;tor Lowe had the salary Of county
clerk increased from $500 to $4.-
l000; the intermediate and circuit
clerks from $4,000 to $4,000. and
prosecuting attorneys from $4,000
to $500. The salary Of the sheriff
of Marion county was left at $4.50O
per annum. Only about one-third OF
the figures named by the House were
left unchanged. In Harrison coun-
ty the sheriff is to receive $4,000,
the county clerk $4,000, the circuit
clerk $4,000 and the prosecuting at
torney $4,000. The bill was adj
vanced to third reading.
Delegate Scherr's weight and meas
ure bill was passed by the Senate, but
Gregory's libel bill, on motion Of the
patron. retained its place without
consideration. The Houses finance
committee bill allowing counties To
spend money for advertising purposes
was passed by the Senate, as were a
number Of minor measures.
Rinehart Of Harrison admonished
the House members that 1T was about
time the solons considered things
more important than measures like
fish and game: that they vote on the
bill and get rid OF 1t one way or
another. On motion of Smith o.
Doddridge the bill was sent back to
the committee.
The House concurred in the Senate
amendments to the House dentistry
bill but declined to. concur in. action
Of the Senate in refusing to concur In
the House amendments to Senator
Gregory's special police bill. an effort
Ito indefinitely postpone the bill was
lost.
Hughes, Republican, wanted to adj
vance the congressional redistricting
bill as reported from the Senate,
creating six districts, but Duty, Re
publican, objected, and assisted by the
votes Of the Democrats Hughes's mo-
I.tion to defer reference 20 a commit
tee, was lost. and the bill went to the
redistricting committee, which had
considered a duplicate Of the Senate
bin and reported that 1t do pass. The
House also sent the Senate board OF
control bill TO the judiciary commit
tee. On motion OF Swiger of Tyler
county. the Erie- Ohio river canal en-
abling act was moved up to second
reading. The bill gives such counties
as may desire the right to Issue

YPREs NOW
NEARING END
History of Former Capital Of
West Flanders is a Very
Tragic One.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Feb. 81
l"Ypres, beaten back from the zenith
which 1t attained around the year
1900, ever dropping lower IN the scale
of Importance, is today apparently
facing the last few scenes of It's tragic
decline. For weeks Ypres has figured
prominently In the war dispatches,
as Germans and allies have rolled in
alternate destructive waves over its
SITE" says a statement issued by the
National Geographic Society today:
"Ypres was formerly the capital OF
West Flanders. 1t Is situated thirty
five miles south OF Ostend, on the
Yperlee. The town lies in the midst
of fruitful region, which is drained
swamp and marsh land. Since the
flooding OF the country as a war meas
ure, the swamp land is today as 1,
was in the Middle Ages.
In the fourteenth century, Ypres
rivaled Bruges and Client twas one
of Europe's great cloth-weaving CEN
tiers, city Of vast wealth, and one
known everywhere through the ex-
cellence and popularity OF It's prod
ucts. In its prime, 1t was a city Of
100000. Prior to the war, its popula-
ton numbered 1900.
"The cloth-making industry OF
Ypres dates back to 1913. AS this i'm
'dustry grew, and skilled weavers,
dyers and finishers were gathered to
the city, Ypres came to occupy in the
wooden and mixed fabric world much
the same place that, today, Noting
ham takes for the manufacture OF lace
curtains or Lyons for the manufacture
OF silk. 1t is said that by the first
quarter Of the thirteenth century,
Ypres had 1000 looms going constant
ly.
"on July II, 1902, it was their red
coated contingent that turned victory
to the banners OF the Flemings in
their battle with the French under the
wallis OF Courtrai, twelve miles east
of Ypres. The Flemish army numbered
10000 citizens OF Client, Bruges, and
Ypres, and the French, 1000 knights
and 10000 foot-soldiers
Several popular risings, the, fear
full plague of 134T, and then wild
bacchanal Of wars blighted the hopes
|of Ypres, Slapped its strength, des-
troyed its industry, killed off and
scared away its people, ruined its
homes, and, finally, broke its spirit
The re-establishment Of an indepen-
dent Belgium found it hopelessly
beaten in the struggle for prosperity
and prestige.
Cotton, linen and wooden cloths
and laces are still manufactured-or
were before the warm Ypres but II
is now Just one Of multitude Of tex.
tile towns, and the world today will
take little notice Of the manner Of its
passing"
