TheCeredo Advance. T. T. McDOVOAL, KDITOK ANDMOmiRTOI. WEDNESDAY, MAY 31, 1011. THIS PAPER REPRESENTED FOR FOREIGN ADVERTISING BY THE GENERAL OFFICES NEW YORK AND CHICAGO BRANCHES IN ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIZC At laft reports everything was <juiel along the great Kanawha Commencement being over, the sweet June bride is next in order.

The best time to harvest the obnoxious weed is before it gets its growth. An exchange says ‘ this is wom en’s age.” but the editor was wise enough to not tell the number of the years. McGraw, the ripper, lost his slipper, coming thro’ the rye. Wat son picked it up,' and winked the other eye. Reports from Cincinnati are to the effect that George B. Cox out pointed Prosecutor Hunt iu their recent bout. Evidentet those legislators at Charleston played a pretty good game of tag—the Democrats being designated ‘ It.” ‘•On to Reno!” was the divorce cry of a train load of women leav ing Chicago the other day. Seems to us we would rather live with the old devil and all his imps than re main in Reno six months. Tiik activity of the Watson Chilton lobby at Charleston more strongly leads one to believe that it is easier for a camel to pass through ill? eye of a needle than for a poor man to enter the United States senate from West Virginia The June Woman’s Home Com panion is in'ercsting and useful in ! a great variety of ways. One of its splendid features, particularly entertaining ami valuable at the present time, h a description of a large number of “safe and sane” celebrations of the Fourth of July which actually took place last year. In refusing a pardon to Charles W. Morris and John li. Walsh, the ex bankers who are serving sen tences ol fifteen and live years re spectively lor stealing thousands of dollars of their depositors’ money, I resident I aft has done the right thing. If criminals are to be par dootd, a hat is the use to go to all the trouble of trying and convict itg them? W hen tin sc violated the high trust imposed upon them by their respective depositors they knew they were walking into jail. So let them take the bitter with the I sweet. After being separated from her husband for forty y<ar«, Mrs. Peter Sharp has located him in Chicago— only to find he has wedded another. However, Sharp was sharp enough to promise to support both women, after which everything seemed sere ne. Those legislators who voted against a direet primary law would best not run for otlice any more, for all the good it would do them. An indulgent public has put up with -bis tomfoolery as long as it can, and the uext election will prove it. When the people want anything they want it, and those who failed to acqhiesce to the demands made ot them at Charleston sounded their political death knell. The editors ot the Tri-State En terprise and Advance want the county to build a road to run auto mobiles on, across the lower end of the county. I think we had better have roads we can travel safely w ith a wagon or buggy fir.-t—Skin h lint in VYayne News. Skin Flint is laboring under a misapprehension. The editor of the Advance does not want the county to build a road “across the lower end of this county for auto* ruibiles.” But he does tbiuk the county should assist in repairing the rjidway in order to mike it passable for automobiles, wagons, buggies, etc. A roadway that is not good enough for automobiles is not good enough for wagons and other vehicles. A number of prominent business men of Hunt ington have signified their willing ness to assist with money in repair ing the road in the north-eastern part of the county, leading from (.’credo's corporate line to the Cabell boundary; and we think ihn county should encourage the project. {Should ^thu he done the road will l>e free for every’ one, including *‘iSkiu Flint” should he wish to drive an automobile or a game rooster up and down the public highway.

Trie Democrats who supported Watson and ( ml ton for the sen ate can not aflord to chain them selves forever to the chariot wheels of these leaders. Putting the mat ter on the baldest ba«is of seltish ness, the Democratic members of the legislature cannot afford to cheapen themselves by allowing the senators to dictate to them in evt?ry thing. They have already fully discharged whatever obligation they may have owed to the combination. For their own welfare, as well as for the good of the state, they should consider the interests and wishes of the people. The people have demanded a primary election law; such a law is required at the hands of the present legislature._ Parkersburg Dispatch-News.

A farmer correspondent of the Review, in concluding a commun ication in another columu save: “Yours for a parcels post.” To that we say, in good old Metho dist fashion, “Amen!” The Re view is with you, brother. It he liev09 with the official who as serted there was but three good’ reasons for not having a parcels post, and they were the United Stages Lx press company, the Adams Express company and the American Express company. Jt is true the country and town in r chants have opposed it because they felt the people would buy more largely of the mail order houses in the big cities were they permitted to get larger packages through the mails at cheap rates. We believe they are large ly in error in this. As it is a number ol persons, in many com munities, combine, send their or ders to the mail houses and then pay excessive rates to the ex-j press companies. The worst feature, how ver, lies iu tho fact that a foreigner lc*» cated in ibis country can send n ten pound package to his home iu a European country, by mail, to any country where they hava a parcels post, by reason of the treaty that exists between the United States and that country, but a cit.'z u of ouo stute can not ^end such a package to auoiher a ate or to a poiut within the same state of the e-ime siz> and forihe earn> rate.
