LIVES SAVED BY TELEPHONE.
One Man Drank Poison, and Another
Severed Four Arteries.

Within the last several days two lives
have been saved over the telephone.
Rev. ]. w. LentZ. of Orders, Breth-
rem minister, took poison by mistake tor
his medicine. No physician being here,
his family got instruction from distant
physician. Antidotes were administered
and his lie was saved.
William MIonich, in Pendleton county
tried to cut a bullet from the breach OF q
gun. The knife slipped and severed four
arteries in his wrist. He was in dang r
OF bleeding TO death. DR.. Meyers, al
Oak Flat, six miles away, gave instuc-
tions over the phone. Another life was
saved. Mr.. Mionich is 70 years old.
So daily are valuable lives preserved
and saved by the use OF the Jefferson
County Telephone.
Is your wife's life valuable to you
Do you want TO preserve your children's
lives Is your life valuable 10 your
self or family 2
DO you want TO make paying invest
ment2 Install Jefferson County Tele-
phone. II is a MONEY maker. Ask
Wall, who sits in his country home and
talks to Chicago. Install a Jefferson
County Telephone. Pay $500 per an
mum. Meet me at the end OF the year
and say, "Getzendanner, that phone did
moi pay me, take II out, give me your
check for $780," Iwill do II. ! mean
this, every word OF il. Phone, write or
wire. DELAYS are dangerous. Long
distance connections with The world.

BOOZE SHOWS ITS
CORRUPT TACTICS
LIQUOR DEALERS ASSOCIATION
PAYS FOR ANTS ADVERTISE
MENTS-HEREI is THE EVIL
DENCE.

Evidence that the liquor associa-
tons, national, state and county, are
working hand in glove with the
"Antis" is coming to hand daily. The
headquarters Of the West Virginia
Equal Suffrage Association at Morgan
town is receiving frequent evidence OF
this patent fact. One OF the most con-
elusive bits of evidence was found in
the last campaign for equal suffrage In
the state of Michigan. Toward the
close of the contest one of the cam
paign leaflets of the Michigan Associa-
ton Opposed to Woman Suffrage
bearing the name and address OF the
association and of its officers, appear
ed as a paid advertisement in many
of the newspapers of McComb county.
The advertisement was an earnest and
energetic appeal to the voters to vote
against equal suffrage. The following
are the officers who signed this adyer-
tisement:
Issued by Michigan Association OPP
posed to Woman Suffrage, office 1928
Majestic Building, Detroit.
President, Mrs. Henry l.. Lyster.
Treasurer, Mrs James Cosslett
Smith.
Secretary, Miss Helen E. Keep.
Corresponding secretary, Mrs. VIM.
S. Jerome.
Vice presidents, Mrs. L. E. Clark,
Mrs. c. A. Kent, Mrs. Charles V. Cas-
grain, Miss Stella Ford.
One of the editors, who CHANGED to
receive the copy Of the advertisement,
also received the following letter &C
companying the order for insertion.
Recognizing the fact that the copy
was offered under false pretenses and
that the letter and order were abso-
lutte evidence of the connection be-
tween the liquor organization and the
"Anti" association, he sent the letter
to the Detroit Journal, which printed
it. The letter is as follows:
McComb County Retail Liquor Deal
ers' Association,
"Office of the Secretary,
mt. Clemens, Mich, March 81, 1913.
ITO the Publisher:
81 enclose herewith copy for an
advertisement which wish you would
insert in this weeks issue of your pa
per, making it ten inches in depth,
double column, on your local page or
front maya If nnssihle
Il will thank you to see that this Is
done and mail statement of charges,
and also marked copy to me and we
will remit for the same.
Thanking you in advance for your
attention to this matter, I am
yours truly,

1t is singular fact that the only
organized opposition to the adoption
of equal suffrage by West Virginia
comes from Columbus, Ohio, the head
quarters of the liquor organizations Of
the United States, and from Philadel-
phia and New York City, where the
national liquor interests maintain
branch headquarters.
But this is not the strangest part Of
this outside interference with the in
ternal affairs of this state. These same
organizations are sending tons Of "lit-
erature" into dry counties of West
Virginia which declares that in those
states where women now vote their
votes have always been cast in favor
Of liquor Into the few counties OF
this state where the sentiment is fav-
orable to the cause Of the saloon these
same organizations are sending also
tons of literature" which quotes facts
and figures showing that the votes Of
women in those same states have al
ways been cast against whiskey and
the saloon.
Both of these statements are not
true According to the sophistry of
these foreign interlopers the vote for
the suffrage amendment in November
should be unanimous in this state. If
all the wet people believed the dry lit
erature and the dry people believed
the wet literature, this would be the
only logical conclusion. AS a matter
of fact, the "antis," who are financed
largely by the liquor interests, are
willing to say or do anything to win
votes.
The people of West Virginia are too
intelligent to be caught with any such
political chaff as is being mailed to
them from outside the state by organ
izations whose desire is to make void
and of no effect the prohibition amend
ment to the constitution. The vote on
the suffrage amendment is looked on
by the liquor men OF the nation as
test of the present sentiment of the
people of this state. If equal suffrage
is lost in November millions will be
spent to render innocuous the prohibit
ton laws at the next session of the
Legislature. II the amendment carries
the liquor ghost will be laid in West
Virginia for all time to come.

Famous Horseback Riders.

Buffalo Bill Cody, il is believed, holds
the record for the longest horseback RIDE
of which there is authentic record. he
was one of that gallant band OF fourscore
pony express riders in the sixties. On
one occasion young Cody-he didn't be-
come Buffalo Bill until some years AFTER
wardrobe without rest for 322 miles.
When the pony express was started for
tte purpose of carrying mail from ST.
Joseph, Mo-, TO Sacramento, CAL, dis
lance of goo miles, ii was planned that
each rider should cover seventy five miles
in day on three different horses.
II was soon found that twenty-five
miles was too much for the horses Tor a
regular unbroken gallop, and the distance
was reduced 10 from ten to twelve miles.
For that distance every horse was pushed
to his limit.
The shortest time in which the entire
distance of goo miles was covered by
pony express riders was made in March,
1861. They carried Lincoln's inaugural
address TO the Golden State in seven days
and seventeen hours, an average speed OF
over Ten and one half miles an hour.
A rider named Haslam dashed oil l2O
miles in s hours and 10 minutes. Another
pony expressman covered one ten mile
stretch in 81 minutes, which is better than
most of the Rocky Mountain railroad
limited trains can do.
The news that Fort Sumter had been
fired upon was flashed from st. Joe to
Sacramento in eight days and fourteen
hours.
lin Moore once rode $50 miles at an
average speed of eighteen miles per hour.
The horses were the best that could be
obtained, and, as stated before, they made
short runs OF from ten TO twelve miles.
No wonder that sometimes letter had
SGT worth of stamps upon itwhen carried
under such extraordinary conditions.
