Again we publish a lettor from St. Albans from our friend Mr. William A. Burgess, in which he demonstrates his ability as a careful reader. What was meant by us when we said those who vote for prohibition should see to it that the law is enforced, was to direct attention to the disposition of many of those who vote for prohibition to wink at the violation of the law, and in numbers of instances become violators of the law themselves, and voted Ifor prohibition with that intention. It was not in tended to create the impression that the opponents of prohibi tion are exempt from seeing that the law is enforced, not at all, it is the duty of all good citizens to uphold all law. We have never caused the arrest of persons for viole ng the liquor laws but would not hesitate to do so did we have the evidence, we have however caused arrest for the violation of other law, that we had no personal interest in, but we deemed it a duty as a. citizen to put the stamp of our disapproval upon the conduct of a man com ing into this community from Florida, entering the home of a very poor man, and enticing his young daughter away. We had this man jailed, and the daugh ter returned to her father. But this w-is altogether different from illicit liquor selling, the act of ours met with the approv al of everybody, yet many others knew of the oo::urrence before we did, and did not act, but if we caused the arrest of a violator of the liquor laws it would be different practically, while theo retically it would not. We repeat that it is the duty of all citizens to uphold law, but it is the special duty of that ele ment of our citizenship which bring~s about the enactment of a law to- not fold their hands and put the responsibility for the law's -enforcment upon those who were opposed to such legisla tion. ~ What we said about con ditions at St. Albans was based upon thie ~census reports, we have never been there, nor in any part of West Virginia, but we have a 'far knowledge of the country around the city of Charleston in West Virginia, and its suburban towns. The town of St. Albans according to Mr. Burgess has a property valua tion of considerably more than the entire school district in which Clarendon's county seat is situated, and with this large property valuation a ten mill levy a- required to run the town, a town which has the benefit from large mining operations distanced about eight of nine miles. We have nothing here to pay this heavy tax except what is derived from the farms, no mines, no factories: nothing but cotton. and if. our contention is correct that by having prohi bition here, it would mean a tax ation amounting to almost con fiscation, it would take in this town. about three or three and one-half per cent, and such a tax would paralyze what little indus try our people have, for what is the prospect for investments, if taxation is so high that the in come either from rents or other wise would not bring a fair in terest There is no doubt if the tax rate increases as will be neces sary if prohibition wins, those who rent farms in the county, and houses in the towns must also stand an increase in the price of the rent. Now the thing for the people to consider will thei increase of taxes and rentals be justified by the hope of a de crease in the consumption of li quor, while the adjoinmng coun ties continue seliing the stuff? Can we have practical prohibi tion under such conditions? If we are to have prohibition only in the law, will it pay to vote on ourselves this additional taxa tion? It is always a pleasure to pub lish a communition from such a source as Mr. Burgess, because he writes intelligently and uses argument becoming a man .of sense. We do not agree with all of his conclusions but we re spect his sincerity and his rea -soning. His commendation "for the man who made Summerton dry," is appreciated, and as long as we hold a representative posi tion we shall endeavor to comply with the wishes of those we rep resent when it comes to ques tions of policy, but where there is a principle involved we shall be governed entirely by our own conscience. The question of liquor control has no principle involved in it. the maj'ority fairly expressed at the ballot box controls, and it is for this reason why we proposed to have the question submitted the people of this county in the primary where a full expression canibe obained and if in the primary a majority vote prohi bition we have pledged ourself to resnect it as an instruction, and tliereby giving to the cause of the prohibitionists a vote in the Senate where they need it for State prohibition. If we regarded the liquor question one of principle, of course no such proposition would be submitted by us, but as it is a question of policy the people should judge of their own desires in the mat ter.

The Charleston News and Courier, insists that its base ball team is not the old Manning ag gregation and to make sure THE TIES editor went to see. It so happened that Charleston won that day, and possibly it was THE TnEs editor's presence, or the pennant was not flying that broke the hoodoo, it matters not what did it, it was did. The number of tried and failed caused some to imagine that Governor Ansel had forbid Charleston from winning by having issued his injunction proceedings, but this must be a mistake as Charleston did win last Thursday's game with the aid of a merciful rain which perhaps prevented Au gusta from overcoming Char leston's lead. But this is not the question at issue. Is Charles ton's team Manning's old aggre gation? This is hard to answer because when Manning was in the throes of base ball her play ers came and went so fast thaat it is hard to identify them. The record, however is what counts, and if Charleston's record is not most deceiving there is to it a very similarity to the record of Manning. with this difference only Manning played less punky.

I thank you for the space allowed me, and for the- courtesy of your extended criticism of what I had to say. I have not the desire to enter upon a continued dis cussion in your paper, but I do ask you to allow me space to set you straight in a few matters which you appear to have misunderstood. You certainly did say that those who vote for prohibition should see to it that the law is enforced. Now it seems to me that, that is giving certain peo ple a special charge. My questions asking you if you had ever given any of your time, as a private citizen, to the enforcement of any law for which you had ever voted, were not intended to apply to violations of any practical law. By no manner of reasoning can you continue what I said as meaning that you had ever aided or abetted the illicit traffic in whiskey. There are other laws which are violated. Inas much as you had put the prohibitionists in charge of the prohibition law, I just wanted to know of what law you were in charge. Istill contend that the ques tion is fair. Then you say, Mr. Editor, that I can not appreciate the revenue feature as well as those who must bear the tax. Let us take a look at that tax business. As near as I can figure it out, I own, and pay taxes on, property in St. James township, Friendship township, school district No. 22. and the town of Summerton. It seems to me that, in classic phrase, that isj"appreciating some." But where you get farthest oti of the track~ is in your pen picture of St. Albans. Now I i. not boosting St. Albas, (and b:: une way don't put any apostrophe Wtween the n and s.") or any other town. It was only used for an example. The principal resources of West Virginia are coal and timber, but St. Albans is not a mining town in any sense. No coal for any ourpose, except perhaps a little privately dug for domestic use, is mined within eight or nine miles of town. No miners live here, no company stores thrive here, and people trade where they please. The total valuation of property assessed for taxation in 1907, including real estate, personal property and corpora tions, was $847,813.51. The regular levy for municipal purposes is 4 mills, special levy for pavements and sewers i 1 mill, for town school 5 mills, mak ing a total tax levy of 10 mills for all town purposes. I got these figures from the Recorder this afternoon, and give them as information. I thank you for again giving me space in THE TiMEs, and here are "three cheers and a tiger" for the man who made Summerton drys. WILLIAM A. BURtGESS. St. Albans, W. Va., April 18, 1908. Club Meeting.

Terrible Accident at Rowens Mill One of the saddest evcnts, as well as the most horrible accident. it has ever been ou r lot to chronicle, happened at Bowens Mill this morning, the victim being little Louie, the live year old son o Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Oliver of this place. The families of Messrs W. C. and P. S. C'iver, with other friends, were spenaing the day tishing at the mill. and the little fellow. in some way, got away from the watchful care of his parents and fell into the mill race, where he was drowned. Some little time after. he was missed. and upon search being made the body was founa in the turbine wheel of the mill, where it had floated with the current into the wheel and stopped the mill. Death had evidently come from drowning, but the heavy wheel had done its ghastly work. too. The skull was broken and the brains washed out, one leg broken at the thigh, and his arms broken. The remains were brought back home on the 11:30 train and the funeral services held at the Methodist church. The interment was in Stubbs cemetery. The parents and otner relatives of the little fellow have the deepest sym pathy of our entire community, in their harrowing sorrow, for they, as well as their bright little boy, have hosts of friends here.-Abbeville, (Ga.,) Chron icle.

If you are a steady smoker don't throw away your old tobacco bags. By saving them until he had a trunk ful a residkt of Sixty-second street got busy wikh a needle and made one of the oddest rugs one would find in a day's walk. Of course this economical genius is an incessant smoker. Often he smoked two bags of tobacco in a day. Then, too, he changed his brand often and in this way got a more high ly colored assortment. He told his friends about the rug he had in mind, and they got busy collecting. As a re sult Mr. Smoker got a big crop each week. In less than six months he had gathered 108 square feet of tobacco bags, which was a nice 9 by 12 rug. He used a piece of thick flannel as a foundation and sewed the bags to it each night on returning from work. On several occasions some of the fel lows from the office helped him do the "sewing." It was interesting work. For some unknown reason many of the helpers sewed the bags on back ward, but all were finally straightened out, and when the rug was finally laid there was a little celebration in the genius' room. Now ns he looks at the rug In silence he pridcs himself upon his economy. And yet the refresh ments that he supplied to keep the workers in good humor and on the night of the "'rug laying" cost him $24.50.-Philadelphia Rlecord. The First Teacups. Even after tea was introduced into Europe and had come into general use teacups were scar'ce. At the same time coffee was introduced; but, apart from Constantinople. the first coffee cups in Europe date back only as far as 1645 in Venice. 1650 in Paris, 1652 in Lon doa and 1t94 in Leipsic. From the first, however, the conventional orien tal coffee cup, without stem or handle, was little used. and in Germany not at all. The Chinese teacup was used for tea, coffee and chocolate as well. Spedi menas of porcelain were undoubtedly introduced into Europe in the middle ages, yet not till the sIxteenth century were cups imported from China in any great quantities, and even then it was as articles of vertu. Most of those found their way back into China again, as collecting porcelain is a lasting fad there, and high prices are paid for good specimens. The collection of Chinese porcelain, if only the genuine specimens are desired, requires im mense stuidy and knowledge, as the Chinese are skillful imitators and put numerous falsifications on the market Society Music.

A Misunderstood Jest. Lord Lytton when viceroy of India was seated one day at dinner next to a lady whose name was Birch and who, though very good looking, was not overintelligent. Said she to his excellency: "Are you acquainted with any of the Birches?" "Oh, yes!" replied Lord Lytton. "I knew several of them most intimately while at Eton-Indeed, more intimate ly than I cared to." "My lord," replied the lady, "you Iforget the Birches are relatives of mine." "And they cut me," said the viceroy, "but," and he smiled his wonted smile, "I have never felt more inclined to kiss the rod than I do now." Sad to say, Mrs. Birch did not see the point and told her husband his ex ellency bad insulted her. >-enedy's Laxative Honey and Tar cures all Coughs, nd expels Colds from the... sys bgently movirng the bowels.

I was forced to arise frequently during the night on account of the too frequent action of the secretions. I also suffered severely from backaches and had sharp pains across my loins. At times I was so lame and 'stiff that I could hardly turn over in bed and mornings I found it very difficult to dress myself.
