Contractors Springer and Stringer are
making excellent progress On the Mozart
road In about two weeks they expect
to have finished a durable water
bound road from Mt. Olivct TO the coun-
~ line near Mozart park. The work
finished almost TO the end OF the Mozart
road. The above mentioned contractors
also have the job Of paving the Bogg's
Kun hill. and doing some road building
on The McMechen hill road. They are
factoriiy. having already started haul
ing on the Bngg's Run hill. The one
section witch is occasion Of general dis
satisfaction because OF. unexplainable
DELAY is the two-mile contract from
Remkr's through Sherrard southwark.
Here the two summers work has only
put the road in very bad shape for
travel and little Is oeing done at this
time toward a finished road.

DON'T WRAP PACKAGES
Hioh Cost Of Paper Has Prompted
Number OF Local Stores to
Be More Saving.

For the first time in the history OF
the 5.and.10-cent stores, stationery es..
Establishments and other similar retail
places, 1t has become optional with the
purchaser whether the package shall
be wrapped. The big advance in paper
is the reason.
a manager of a local ,5-and-lo-cent
store said yesterday that when one tor'
merly purchased a single lead pencil It
was placed in small sack to prevent
shopifting. as unwrapped articles ID
nossession of suspected persons is al
most convicting evidence Of stealing.
The sneaker said that the advance in
paper had prompted the heads Of the
hundred-chain-stores to eliminate
wrapping small, compact articles
when possible.

ROBINSON IN A ROMP
ON THE HOMES STRETCH
Of the Race for the Republican
Nomination for Governor
of the State.

WASHINGTON. May 3l.-,roday's
reports brought to town by several
experienced observers of, and active
actors in. Republican politics in West

ment OF the local state colony that
Judge Robinson viii easily walk off

in a romp, say those who are closely
in touch with the home-stretch con

Col. Jesse Block. OF Wheeling who
has twice represented Ohio county in
the Legislature, arrived III the capital
today. He told his West Virginia
friends here that II looked to him like
there was nothing 20 81 but the nom
nation Of Judge Robinson" He de-
clared that Judge Robinson would car
ry Ohio county BY a large majority,
and that the contiguous counties
would line Zip for the Taylor county
jurist with n sweep.
In the closing days Of the spirited
contest between Judge Robinson and
General Lilly, that party sentiment
without knowledge OF which an expert
observer Of the trend is as liable to
be as far wrong as the verIest novice,
is asserting itself We are finding out
now what the man who has been too
busy attending to his own business to
bother himself about the contest. IL

silent vote of the party is coming out
Of its silence and II is speaking in I'M
mlstakaible preference for Judge Rob
insons nomination. While that vote
has refused to besur itself audibly
Until The time was ripe To take hand,
II is not meant that Il has not read
and thought deeply and lntelligently
on the subject and has been formulat-
ing its opinion. II understands the
differences between these two person
alites, the issues involved, and what
II is best To do in the interest OF put
