THE BLIZZARD VERDICT.

The verdict in the case of William
Blizzard, miner, charged with treason
against the sovereign state of West
Virginia has been returned. He was
acquitted. He is free.
In the muddle of affairs in West yir-
glnia clear decisions al to the right
and wrong of things are difficult. In
all likelihood all Is not right and all is
not wrong on either side. They never
are. But the indications pointed to the
conclusion that the attempt to convict
the young miner of treason was far
fetched.
Much more hinged on the trial than
appeared on the surface. At the bot
tom it was an attempt of the organ
lied coal mine operators of the state
"barons" hey were truly called-to de-
prive the union miners of practically
all their civil rights. Mingo county
has been the center of lawlessness for
decades. 1t is ruled with an iron hand
by these operators. They control the
courts, the sheriff, the officials of all
kinds. They are shrewdly suspected of
controlling the governor and the state
machinery as whole.
Don Chafin is sheriff of Mingo
County. On his payroll of deputies are
hundreds of mine guards, thereby
legally entitled TO carry and use fire.
arms. These same deputies and guards
are paid by the mine owners, and not
by the county. 1t is a way of arming
the operators men so they can shoot
and harry the "agitatorse as they
termed any men seeking to organize
the miners, or, in fact, even to come
into the county.
Such system of legalized terror

GIVE YOUR PASTOR A CHANCE.

The demands made upon the modern
minister are both varied and intricate.
He is supposed to be specialist in
practically every field connected with
church life. And he is driven at his
task from day to day, seven days a
week, with very little opportunity for
seasons of refreshing, either by way of
knowledge or inspiration. He must al
ways be giving out knowledge and in
spiration. How valuable it would be
for him and for your entire church If
a group of men and women should de-
eide to finance for him trip as dele

Sunday School Convention at Kansas
City, Missouri, June II to 81, 1922.
What joy it would give him! And with
what new zeal and enthusiasm he
would tackle your Sunday school prob
lens to his return. 1t only takes one
of you to start such a movement Nom
mate yourself as that one, interest a
few others and go right at it. 1t will
be one of he wisest investments that
you ever had part in. Don't wait
to let your inclination dwindle into
inaction. This. is your opportunity to
help your pastor render greater service

Barlow Notes

Barlow, Feb. 14.-The Woman's
Club met at the City Hall Monday ar
ternoon for their business session
promptly at $3.50 with their president,
Miss Finnie White, presiding. The pro-
ceedings were interesting from start
to finish. A casual survey of the audi
ence indicated that the Woman's Club
meant business, which was soon prov
ed true. Reports from different chair
men were read, which, as a whole,
forecasts an unusually busy year,
dealing with their problems and diff
ticulties. In the hearts of some there
is a feeling Of disbursement, note
of depression, while in others there is
hope and good cheer.
The principal feature of the hour
was the selection of site for club
house. Mrs. Richie, chairman OF the
site committee, presented several
cites, giving all information as to loca-
ton, sizes of the los, and prices. At
ter a discussion by the members of
the club, it was decided the lot on
Parker street and Oak avenue (size
100 by 1000 was the most favorable
choice for a site. A motion was made
sideration being $1,000. Mrs. Richie
was then given authority by the club
to close the deal as early as possible.
Mr.. and Mrs. Tom Bishop, of Tam
pa, and Miss Ruth Walker, of Jack
sonville, came over and spent Satur-
