the candidacy OF William F. H1te, Of
Huntington, Republican entry in the
race for United States Senate. When
this announcement was flashed to the
voters in the northern counties OF the
state. a considerable portion OF them
had never heard Hite stand up and
tell them what a great state is West
Virginia; but nearly all OF them knew
that for years he has been helping to
make It the great state that 1t Is. In
this case the candidates record was

fee, make him an ideal candidate.
Mr.. Griffin was born near the vii
Ilage Of Brown, in Sardis district, Of
this county, thirty-eight years ago.
He Is a son of Benjamin @. Griffin
one OF the stalwart sons of the pio-
neer Griffin family that helped blaze
the path of progress In the West Fork
valley. Returning from the war,
however, the ex-sold1er was spared
but few years, and when the SON,
Lloyd, was but an infant in arms,
the father died. The soldiers widow
was left with eight children, the old
est OF whom was scarcely more than
twelve years Of age. The family
lived on a small farm which was by
no means free Of debt. Then ensued
for the Griffin family a period OF bit
ter adversely, but the mother, who
was a swiger, came from stock that
produce stalwart men, and she kept
the family together until the growing
boys could take hand in the bread
winning.
From hts earliest youth, then,
Lloyd Griffin has been a toiler, and
while laborlng In the fields and at
the hardest manual tasks to help the
family. he did not neglect his educa-
ton. AT the common schools of the
nelghborhood he acquired the foun-
dations OF an education and was ear
ly fitted for teaching. He taught in
sardls and Eagle district schools for
eight years, completing his work in
that line with successful summer
normal OF the period, which enabled
a number Of worthy young men and
women to prepare themselves for the
teaching profession. Leaving the
farm and the district school, Mr..
Griffin attended the Mountain State
Business College at Parkershurg,
where he completed the commercial
course. He then located In Clarks-
burg and entered the employ Of the
West Virginia Bank.
He is married and is the father of
one son. Both he and Mrs, Griffin
are members of the Baptist church
of this city. They reside on Locust
street.
Speaking Of his candidacy. Mr..
Griffin says that he expects to make
g, vigorous campaign for the nomina-
ton, but with perfect fairness to
those who may contest with him for
the honor. lie hopes to meet person
ally as many voters as possible. and
recognizes the right OF every voter
to inquire into the public attitude.

HIGH PRICES FORCE
1900 BAKERS OUT

Chicago. Nov. 1S.-According to j.
Nj. Bell. general secretary of the Ma
tional Association OF Master Bakers
of America. who returned from a meet
ing OF the executive board OF the or
g~anization at Memphis. 1900 bakeries
have been compelled to close since
Aug. l because of the soaring prices
OF flour. eggs, butter and other com
modities used in the baking business.
AT the beginning of the war there
were about 10000 bakeries in the Unit.
ed States. Since then about 20 per
cent have been forced u OF business
by soaring prices OF labor and com
modities.
What is true of bakeries is true OF
other concerns In the food line. Prac-
tically every local organization of our
association has adopted resolutions
urging the government to do what 1t
can to restore conditions to normal.

New York, Nov. is. George II.

ing a strike as an answer to the In

Il don't think there is anything In
the constitution OF any OF the brother
hoods allowing a strike during injunc.
ton proceedings" Mr.. Sines said.
III the supreme court decides the
Adamson law is unconstitutional the
brotherhoods will be right back where
they were before the law was passed.
