Several bills were allowed by the
commission. after which the recon-
mendation of John Meserve. city at
torney, relative to the damage claim
against the city by Mrs Emma Saun-
ders were read and the attorney was
instructed to settle this claim with the
best possible speed, and to the best
interest OF the city. The claim orig
inally was for S19, 900 and grew out Of
the injuries sustained by Mrs. Saun-
ders when she fell from an Improperly
constructed sidewalk on sixth. II Is
understood that offers OF settlement
have been made by attorneys repre-
sentlng Mrs. Saunders for the sum of
$1,000.

FOREIGN TRADE IN TEXTILES

The latest returns on foreign trade
in textiles, for the eleven months end
ing in November, came to hand this

anced state of trade as compared with
normal periods. The exports of wool

LUCRATIVE EMPLOYMENT FOR
MANY

The movement launched by the
Board of Trade to bring sufficient peo-
pie to Martinsburg to supply the la
Dor requirements is a most commend
able one, and should have the hearty
cooperation and assistance of every
citizen who is interested in the city's
welfare in the forward march of
progress. This action is call to
arms, and should enlist the support
Of all who want to see Martinsburg
grow and prosper and take her place
among the enterprising cities of the
country.
That there is employment in Mar
tinsburg and vicinity today for at
least 500 more people is self-evident.
Every manufacturing establishment,
although enjoying great prosperity
and doing flourishing business, bad
ly needs more help because the de-
mands upon them are so heavy that
to meet them larger forces must be
employed.
There are many reasons why pso-
fple should locate in Martinsburg. The
city is one of the most healthy in the
Shenandoah valley, living is as cheap
as can be found anywhere, taxes are
reasonable. our school advantages are
equal to any in this section, our
churches are numerous and always in
vite strangers, the climate is salub-
rious, and, in fact, its advantages
far superior to any city where factor
les are established
The citizenship of Martinsburg is
Of the highest type. The people are

peacable, always seeking to improve
ocial conditions, and constantly look
ing toward the betterment of all
classes of people. The hospitality of
the city has long been a matter OF
extreme pride, and the people still
consider it their duty to extend
cordial welcome to the strangers who
may locate here either temporarily or
permanently, and those who have
come in recent years attest to that
fact.
Perhaps Martinsburg was never as
prosperous as it is today. Every
place of business, especially the fac

Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1916-02-26
HON. j. w. HARTMAN

Hon j. w. Hartman, of Parsons
Whose announcement appears this
week in the Herald. is making an ag
gressiye campaign for the nomination
for Congress in the Second district.
Mr. Hartman comes from a section
that has never furnished a candidate
oil a congressman, and he, as we'll as
his many friends, believe that it IS
time for them to be recognized.
While young Mr.. Hartman was
thrown upon his own resources. but
through hard work and stint he fit
ted himself for the practice of law,
and has been very successful in his
chosen profession He has served as
mayor of Parsons, is trustee in the
Methodist church. and is regarded as
one of the leading citizens of his
home city. Since 1892 he has been
active in every campaign, visiting
many sections and delivering speech
ies in behalf of his party's ticket.
Read his announcement, and remem.
Der him at the. June primary. This
is what the Tucker Democrat, pub
lished at Parsons, says of him.
Our townsman, lawyer ]. W.
Hartman, is making a good fight for
the Republican nomination for Con
gress. We hope he may be success
full in his campaign, as we want to
see all the honors possible come to
Parsons. He is possibly better fitted
for the place than any we have heard
wanting it. A studious saNyer, a man
true to his word, without blemish
morally could not help but make a
good Congressman We should like
tc see him get the nomination on ac-
count of home pride as we'll as for
the good in the man we know of.
If we have to have Republican in
Congress we should rather see a Par
sons man have the place, and as Har-
man wants it, the peaple generally
should assist him in his canvass for
the nomination
