Truth Stranger Than Fiction.

Little Percy Mcfarland, discovering
that his mother was in Court went
over to the neighborhood of where he
thought he saw her standing. 1t was
at the time of adjournment, and the
mother had to pass her little son, now
separated from her forever, as he stood
by the wicket of the wooden railing.
She passed without bestowins a glance
upon him. though he turned his bright
brown eyes intently upon her, and when
she passed out into the emerging crowd,
he said, in reply to Il question as to
whether he saw his mother, Yes. ]

Marion County.

The Democrats and Conservatives OF
Marion county will hold County Con
yention for the purpose of organizing
and appointing delegates TO the State
Convention, on Saturday, May 18th, at
the Court House, in Fairmont. They
cordially invite all liberal men-all who
are willing to wipe out our proscriptive
and war legislation and to enact instead
measures Of peace and good will-all
who believe a white man has as good
right to the ballot a. a negro, to par
ticipate in the meeting.

The Negro on Top.

The question of negro suffrage IN
West Virginia stands upon different
footing to what il does in any other
State of the Union save Missouri In
Pennsylvania and Kentucky, or Massa-
chusetts and Louisiana, both white and
black men, without discrimination, can
vote. 1t is bad enough to have negroes
voting in any State OF the Union, and it
is doubly bad to have them vote in
States where their numbers, aided 10y a
few carpet-baggers and scallawags, can
overwhelm the white vote But the
creates. outrage which could be rerpe
trated upon any people is to give un-
limited suffrage to the negroes in a
State where $4,000 white men are cx-
cluded from the ballot-boxl Such is
the humiliating and revolving state Of
the case in this State
The Constitution of West Virginia
expressly declares that none but
white men shall vote, and the negro
is, and always has been, excluded by
that instrument. But in 1866, when
peace and good will should have been
cultivated among all classes and sec
tons of our people, the Radical party
imposed a constitutional amendment
and Registration law upon the State
for base partisan purposes, which dis
franchise at least $4,000 of our best
people because their sympathies hap
pened to run with their friends in the
rebellion. After five years of peace,
these tyrannical acknowledgements of
white people still continue; but the
very moment the Fifteenth Amend
ment was adopted, and before any State
or Federal law has been passed to ell
force it, the Radicals of this State have
turned loose the negroes upon the ballot
box in direct violation OF the State Con-
stitution, and every principle Of reason
or justice!
We repeat again that to enfranchise
four millions of ignorant negroes was
great evil to this country; but to give
them the ballot in West Virginia in
violation of her constitution, at the same
time that they forcibly exclude from
voting twenty-five thousand white men,
is the most fnonstrous wrong and insult
ever perpetrated by any class of men
and too intolerable to be longer bourne
by the people. !

Three Grand Things for Virginia
and fhc Country.

There arc three movements now well
begun which are destined 10 affect very
favorably the future of Virginia and
West Virginia. First--Wcarc inform
ed by travellers from that part of the
country that there is very strong cur
rent of immigration setting into Nir
ginia. and there are forctoliCms Of q still
larger settlement To come. On all the
railroads and irequcntcd routes of travel,
aud at hotels, may he found numerous
prospecting parties from Northern and
Eastern States, and Il good many actual
settlers moving in, both European and
American. There never was H. much
activity in Virginia lands a. there is at
this time. Closely connected with this
movement Of population, We are inform
ed also that the the iron manufacturers
Of New York and Pennsylvania,
knowing the extent and richness Of
the iron ores of Virginia. have,
during the past few months been
purchasing number OF estates west of
the Blue Ridge, with view of erecting
furnaces thereon, in the conviction that
iron can be produced there for Il little
more than onc-halt its present cost on
the bank, of the Lchigh. The extern
sion of the. Chesapeake and Ohio Rail
road from lis present terminus, at the
White sulphur Springs, to the Ohio
River, Is movement calculated TO ac-
cclcrate and give success to the influx
of population and capital This road,
as Is well known, travcrSCs the iron
beds of Virginia and the tar-famcd coal
fields of West Virginia, and connects
the waters of the Atlantic with all that
vast system OF land and water transport
reaching between the Kanawha Valley
and the Pacific Coast. 1t will make OF
Virginia the highway of q great east
and west traffic, while the two former
will make of her the storehouse and the
workshop of our coming industry.
Col and iron have been the founda-
ton of much the greater part OF Eng
lands wealth Virginia and West Nir-
ginia together contain not onl V more
coal, but also more iron than the whole
of Great Britain. They Yield it at al
most no cost, and on Virginia. soil iron
will vet be produced III quantities equal
to the present product of Great Britain,
and at less absolute cost The great
work of the Chesapeake and Ohio road
will be to unite these separate ingredi-
ents OF the iron, and to distribute the
metal in untold quantities to the East
and To the West. \ few months will
see the road in operation to the Ohio,
and the new era Of mining and manu-
features begun.
By reference 10 the advertisement OF
Mcssr-. Fisk d Hatch, on another
page, it will be seen that the Bonds Of
this great Enterprise are offered to in
vcstorS, combining every feature which
safety or convenience would suggest, at
rates which cannot but prove tempting
to surplus capital among our wealthy
citizens.

Seeurify of Ruildings.

The Richmond State Journal is OF
opinion that commission Of architects
villa once be appointed in that city,
to inspect and report upon the condi-
ton. with regard to safety, Of all the
public buildings, including churches,
theatres, and places for business as well
as amusement. An incident is men
toned of the fall of a theatre gallery
in New Orleans, in 1885, which was sus-
pended by iron rods from the ceiling or
roof, and the breaking Of one OF these
caused the others to give way. 1t had
no columns or other support under
meath. Some twenty persons were
crushed to death or mangled. The City
Council of New Orleans at once held
meeting, in response to the public
elamor, and resolved 10 appoint q
Board of Inspectors, comprising the
best architects of the city, to examine
and report not only upon all public
buildings, and hotels and bridges, but
upon many private houses and stores
deemed dankerOus. The architects per-
formed their work well, and found many
very "rotten concerns in the city
which needed propping up. They also
are said to have reported against the
suspension of galleries from the roof or
ceiling. and recommended that in all
cases they should be supported by col
umns, or stanchions below. Whether
this was proper recommendation or
not, there was popular dread after
that of suspended galleries and unsup-
ported floors, and it was so difficult 10
get an audience again in the old theatre
that a new opera house was soon after
erected.
The New York S,m asks what As
surance the people Of that city have
that some such disaster is not awaiting
them at this moment. There sin New
York department for the inspection of
buildings, whose duty i to guard
against such dangers, yet it is alleged
that It's administration has been so
venal and criminal that, for money,
builders have been permitted, i'll viola
ton of law and at the public peril, to
run up flimsy shells which are likely
any day to topplc over and crush the
inmates. Where the public safety i
thus put up for competition with pri-
vate greed, there can be no assurance Of
the security of public or private struc-
turcS

SOCIAL EQUALITY.

of Social Equality in Our Public
sehools-what Their Sentiments


There was considerable excitement
in this place on Monday last, caused
by the reported entrance Of several col
ored children into the public school
(Krpson's Old Stable) and demanding
the same educational privileges as are
accorded to the white scholars This
procedure caused great excitement
among the white students, and for a
time it was supposed that it would end
in serious row, some of the colored
children having been assaulted on the
street with stones. The trustees visited
the school and quoted the excitement
bv an assurance that the colored chill
dren should not he permitted to attend.
We have no comments to make upon
this state Of affairs, further than to say
that the leaders of the Radical party of
this county are alone responsible for
these social equality proceedings, and
that the colored people are not to blame
for claiming such privileges, when they
are assured by such radical friends as
Judge E. B. Hall and others, that they
are entitled to them, and that they
should force their recognition.

What We're Coming To!

The indignant feelings shown by the
scholars belonging to the public school
in this town on Monday last when it
was reported that several colorcd
children had been admitted into the
room as students, shows TO what Radl-
cal doctrines are tending. We are
proud that the youth of this place have
shown 50 much scnsihility in this mat
ter. It. proves beyond doubt that
whilst older persons in this commu-
nitv by their votes, acts and speeches
have brought on this humiliating state
of affairs, that the white youth Of
our land revolts with Indignation against
it, \ number of the white students left
the school, and any further attempt to
enforce Judge Halls social equality doc
trines would break up the public school
entirely. in view OF this and other hui
initiating outragcs to which we are
likely to he subjected through Radical
rule, is it not time for the white man to
begin to assert that he has some rights

Township Meetings.

In view Of the pressing necessity. that
some county organization should be
speedily adopted by the people opposed
to Radical prescription and misrule, it
has been suggested 10y many prominent
liberal and conservative gentlemen, that
all opponents of RadicaliSm and its
twin-sistcr, social equality, who cannot
and will not permit their white fellow
citizens TO be deprived longer of politi-
cal privileges now fully bestowed upon
the negro, and also opposed TO admit
ting the negro into our common schools
upon an equality with their own chill
dren, will meet at their respective places
of assemblage in each township on Sat
urday, the 2Sth of this month, for the
purpose of appointing ten delegates from
each township to general county con-
vention, to be held in Martinsburg on
the ensuing Monday, May 3Oth, at the
Court House, for the purpose Of taking
such steps as will best insure concert Of
action among all opponents of Radical
ism, and that success may be assured in
the coming political campaign both in
the county and State elections
Let every man opposed TO Radical
prescription and negro equality turn ont.
