OFFICIALS ARE ACCUSED
OF SMUGGLING LIQUOR

The Federal grand jury at Hunting
ton, w. Va, returned indictments
against Justice OF the Peace r. G.. Ian
ders, Deputy Sheriff Joseph Obver
and Constable l.. b. Reed, Of Fayette
county. on a charge Of bringing wills
key into this state from Ohio.
The three men are accused Of at
tempting to carry out the biggest and
cleverest scheme yet attempted TO
violate the Yost state prohibition
laws. carload Of whiskey was ship
ped from Vinton, Ohio, to the w. x.
Johnson Coal Company at Smithers,
without the consent Of that company.
The liquor was shipped in carload
of hay.
When it was delivered on the side
track there was a search and seizure
warrant issued by Landers and d.
rected to Oliver and Reed But this,
it is charged. was a mere subterfuge
to get the whiskey into the state.

NEW YORK, April 12.-The major
league baseball season of 1916 was
inaugurated in eight OF the leading
cities of the east and middle west to-
day.
Eight umpires in as many parks
gave the home plate its first official
busting, send forth once more the old
familiar hattie cry play BALI" and
16 clubs viii begin the years two
great pennant struggles, which will
not terminate until the first week in
October
The National league began it's for
ty-first season, while the American
opened its seventeenth.
Many of these clubs have been
strengthened during the past winter
and every indication points to close
races for the pennants. The former
Federal league clubs and the minor
circuits have been fine combed for
diamond talent. In some cases fam
Gus stars will be seen in strange uni
forms, but once the players and fans
have accustomed themselves to the
new combinations the general predic-
ton of a banner year in baseball
seems likely to be realized.

To the Democrats of the Fifteenth
Senatorial District:

-Four years ago, it was the pleasure
of the electorate to confer upon me
the honor of representing this dis
triet in the state senate. In the SEES
sions of the legislature during my
term of office, much legislation was
proposed, but none of such vital i'm
portance as that relating to taxation.
Under the influence of partisan poll
tics the high-tide of extravaganza
was reached in the Republican legis-
lature of 1915, and was opposed by
the nine Democratic senators, who
advocated retrenchment in all use
less expenditures, as against an in
crease in taxation. feel justly proud
to have served with these loyal rep
resentatives of the people, and attri-
butte to the record made by us, much
Of the encouragement now being given
to me to stand for reelection.
Therefore, in obedience with this
demand for my candidacy, ard in con.
Icrmity with the precedent followed
in this senatorial district of electing
our state senators to a second term,
when demand is made, | hereby an
nounce my candidacy for reelection
to the state senate.
| sincerely thank you for the high
honor you have heretofore conferred
upon me, and earnestly solicit the ac-
tive support of every citizen who be-
lieyes in the position taken by the
Democratic senators in opposition to
waste and extravaganza.
Very truly yours,

over six times as many ocolmo-

freight cars have been purchased by
the railroads during the first three

the purchases of January. February

Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1916-04-15

As indicating the continued activi-
ty in the buying OF cars and locomo-
tives, despite the high prices for ma
terial, there were reported orders
for 12S locomotives, $500 freight cars
and 100 passenger cars. having a to-
tai value of at least $10,000000. There
were also reported orders for $4,000
tons of rails worth at least $4,000, 900,
or total purchase for the work of s14,-
$4,000. The total purchases of cars
and locomotives for March were 634
locomotives. 1928 freight cars and
ISL passenger cars.
The buying of locomotives has
been especially active. even though
during the last two years the rail-
ways have been increasing the ca
pacity of their old engines by the ap.
pication of superheaters, brick arch
es, new valve gears and other devices.
January, February and March are not
usually considered big months and
yet orders have been placed during
the first quarter of the year at a rate
for the entire II months of 4.548 not
counting foreign orders. The largest
number of locomotives ever reported
as purchased during one year was A.
514 in 1912.
