The Ceredo Advance. T. T. McDOUOAL, BD1TOK AND rROPRlKTUI. Wednesday, Sept. 27, IHOrt. Pig irou is said to be becoming scarce throughout tbe Uuited Staled. Better save a few “grunts” and | await the advance. Rockhkkli.er recently gave an other targe donation to a cburob. And of course the price of oil was immediately raised. A gang of railroad men were re cently arrested at Huntington for working on Sunday. Always thought the railroad people were immune from arrest for thus break ing tbe Holy Day. A salter kraut mine has been dis covered in one of the foreign conn* "Tries.* \No doubt a weincrwhursl I factory will be unearthed next. Theu hoke ier lager und limber* The Greenbrier Bd^TTst Associa tion held its 105 annual session with the Cashtner Baptist church in Monroe county, receutly. Rev. ,1. y*.

The tire started in the candy department of tin* Kekew-Smith building. A falling wall carried four firemen to the col lar, injuring all of them. Judge Parker charges a promi nent life insurance company with having contributed *100,(00 of the society's funds toward the election ot one Theodore Roosevelt. The President of the company says it can prove an alibi. So ’here! The work of constructing the lines of the Mutual Telephone Go. J —Columbus to Huntington i® be ing pushed very rapidly. When the work is completed Huntington y M then have telephone conneu W Hons with every principal city in r the union. 1 he Czar announces that it is hi s desire to have another international peace congress convene at the Hague. From the amount of trou ble that is being kicked up daily throughout his domain, American people think the Cz ir would do well to first assemble a peace con ference at Warsaw or St. Peters bnrg. A negro was lodged in j ail at Huntington last Friday charged *7th throwing a rock into a street car. Some people who ’’haven in” for the conductor, thus jeopardize the lives of innocent men, women and children by throwing rocks through car windows. The sooner a stop is put to this practice the better it will be for the traveling public. An offense of this kind is punishable by penitentiary impris cement, and offenders -diould be dealt with accordingly.

Al though the attendance may not have been quite as large as that of some former meeting*, more interest in the proceedings was manifested, nearly every one on the program Wing ready to respond. Enter taining and instructive papers weie read by the following well known members ol the Association: S. S. Buzzard, Stewart F. Keed, Harry E. Snyder, George By rue, Cal F. Young, K. Ad Hall, J. Slidell Brown and W. C\ Hedrick. The meeting did not prove to be a He puoucan garnering, as some pa pers seemed to imagine it would be, but Republicans and Democrats, in almost equal numbers, were there and we hear ! o1 no partisan feeling of any kinu to mar the general pleasure of those present. The 1 ‘knockers” of the meeting should now go ’way back and sit down and not arise until they feel belter. The Baltimore A Ohio Railroad Company did all io its power to make the uewnpaper nlen enjoy themselves, having a special car, with refreshments, from Clarks burg to Holly Junction. The gen iil advertising agent, Mr. Lowe, and another geutlemaii—an agent of tlie line—represented the road and did it in good style. Mr. Mar tin, a handsome and accommodat ing young man, was the agent for the Holly River A Addison R. R. and lie spared no pains to make all the visitors joyous and happy. 1 In* people of NVehster Springs gave the visitors an excellent banquet at the New W ebster Springs Hotel on the evening of the 2 I, which could j scarcely be excelled.

As the time baa arrived for tbe beginning of schools, says the Ron oeverle Democrat, the question of books is likely to become a very important and aggravating one, and is being more or less discussed through tbe various papers of the Slate. Tbe following from the Morgautown Chronicle is a fair sum ming up of tbe questiou: v“Tbe system under which school books in West Virginia are changed and juggled is an outrage. It is in the iuterest of publishers, and not of the people. The public is hum bugged aud robbed in order that publishers may sell books. Bribery is euoouraged and is practiced'. Corruption is fostered. The idea that each county must adopt its own school books is uot only foolish '#uu it in nuinc. it 10 urillllUcSI II is enough to beat the blood ot any honest man, to think of such a dia bolical wroug being foisted upon West Virginia. The same books should be used iu all schools of the state of the same grade. They should be select ed by competent educators, and should be changed only when bet ter books appear. As a matter of fact, the stale should own the copy rights, print the books, and sell them to the children at actual cost. But that matter could be considered on its merit at some future time rl he chief thing is to stop the disastrous traffic in 55 kinds of school books iu 55 counties. it is wrong. It is foolish in principle and corrupt in practice. The pub lisher who pays the biggest bribes is usually the one who has bis books adopted. This is very plaiu lan guage, but it is a case where plain words are needed. The key uote of the present system is bribery. The last Legislature ought to have killed the law beyond tbe power of insurrection but it was not duue. The next legislature should do it There is no room in West Virginia lor such a piece o! iniquity as that school book law is. Let »t be killed and let an honest law take its place.’ Pdrdoned Bu the Governor. I he tloveriior’s office Kriday morning announced the pardon ot VV. N.
