WELSH JEFFERSON DAVIS PARISH FRIDAY FEBRUARY 1916
NEW SERIAL STORY TO BEGIN
IN The JOURNAL FEB, 18TH.

We have had a great many Inquiries
from subscribers with reference to
running continued story. The prin.
cipal reason for not having done so is
the fact that with a tWice.a.week issue
with only four pages each we could not
accommodate such a story. Beginning
however with the next issue we will
publish the Journal only once a week,
leaving out our Tuesday issue. Our
weekly issue will contain eight pages
all printed here at home and this will
give US an opportunity to begin a serial
story.
We believe we have been fortunate in
the selection of story. Our selection
has rested upon The Cali of the Cum
berlandS." This story is written b.
Charles Neville Buck. The scene is
laid in old Kentucky, and is a stirring
romance of the Kentucky noun aims.

A recent dispatch from Washington is
as follows: That no attempt to force
West Virginia TO make early payment of
the 100000 judgment rendered against
her by the Supreme Court in the Virginia
debt litigation should be taken by Viz
ginia was agreed at conference be-
tween the Virginia Debt Commissioners
and legal representatives of Brown Bros.
& Co., the New York bankers, who hold
the bulk Of the old debt certificates. Vir-
ginia will exhaust all friendly methods to
collect the money before countenancing
forceful means. 1.-THE Virginia Debt
Commissioners do not believe the people
OF West Virginia will knowingly defy the
mandate of the Supreme Court of the
United States by refusing to pay the obi
CATION" said State Senator H. H. Down.
ing. chairman of the Virginia commission.
Therefore, we intend to give them plenty
of time TO study the case. We are not in
favor OF doing anything TO force payment
until the West Virginia Legislature has
met and passed upon the question" In
view of this action if may be several years
before another move is made in the Viz
ginia debt litigation. The West Virginia
Legislature will not meet until January,
1917. 1t is improbable that counsel for
Brown Bros & Co. will ask the Supreme
Court TO take steps to force payment, as
the suit against West Virginia was brought
and prosecuted in Virginia's name and the
court will be governed by motions OF the
States counsel.
