Fiery Cross Seen
Near Marmarth

Marmarth, N. d.. Aug. 29.-Burn-
ing Of huge fiery cross on two
nights only three days apart on
the hills north of Marmarth has
given rise to considerable specula-
tion and many unverified rumors
of warning to citizens and secret
meetings of the white robed khan.
A Closeup" examination-in the
daytime = showed the charred re-
mains of wooden crosses. Many
take the view that burning crosses
were the work Of jokers.

I'VE are all old women, our days

WHISKY WINS

William d. Scott graduated from
the University Of Toronto. He studied
music at Leipzig. He became a
clergyman of the Episcopal church.
He patted a little girl on the head in
the public street. The child's mother,
Mortified, shrieked, and the man is in
jail, sentenced for six months as a
vagrant.
Whisky had pulled him down so
low, made him SO poor, ragged, dirty
and dreadful to look at that the
mother would have beaten him, mere
ly for touching her child.
A college education, plus education
in Europe, plus ministerial training,
all advantages were his. But whisky
had the advantage in the end. This
bootleg kind. 1t is twice as power
ought to interest some of those that
are investing money in whisky of the

W. VA. COAL OPERATORS
CONFER At DEER PARK
Discuss Recent Decision of |. C.
c. Reducing Rates To West
ern Markets

The directors of the Northern West
Virginia Coal Operators Association
met Friday afternoon at the Deer
Park Hotel, Deer Park, where they
discussed the recent decision of the
Interstate Commerce Commission in
which a decrease on rates was given
to coal operators in Southern Ohio
into western markets. 1t is antici-
pated that the effect of this reduc-
ton in rates when it becomes opera
tive in September 27, will be the
elimination of northern West Virgin
ia steam coal from the markets in
Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Michigan.
Traffic attorney, E. J. McVann, Of
Washington, D. c., was present at
the meeting and advised the opera
tors on matters pertaining to traffic.
The directors also considered the
complaint that has been filed by the
Pittsburgh coal operators with the
Interstate Commerce Commission,
asking the Commission to give them
a reduction in rates on coal shipped
from the Pittsburgh district to Lake
ports. The Pittsburgh operators
claim that they are closer to these
b'ACS IlletI any OJilGL producing lelQ
and for that reason they should have
a greater advantage than they now
have.
another matter that is giving local
operators much concern is that coal
originating in Southern West Virgin
ia is now replacing Fairmont coal
IN the New England market via coast
shipment. 1t was pointed out that
coal shipped at Norfolk from south
eln West Virginia has shorter boat
haul than coal loaded at Curtis Bay
and originating at Fairmont.
The extensive development of coal
in the New River field is forcing a
high grade Of steam coal into the
Baltimore market in greater ouant;-
Ties than heretofore. replacing coal
from the F&irmont field, it was said.
These facts coupled with the recent
decision in favor Of the coal opera
tors in Southern Ohio and the pend
ing case OF the Pittsburgh operators
before the Interstate Commerce Com
mission present . serious problem for
the llarksburg and Fairmont opera
TOYS.
