nrobable that an increased consump-
ton of gas would follow reduction Of
tbe price to consumers, and the revenue
be thus maintained at its present figure !;
or if the expense Of conducting the
works and making extensions and i'm
movements should render it necessary,
the city will have power to increase the
rate charged. Atall events, there can
be nothing to impair the ability OF the
city to fulfil its contract with the pur-
chasers of bonds, as regards the
prompt payment Of both principal and
interest of the sum loaned.
Under these circumstances, we see
no reason why the bonds Of the "as
Loan should not be considered per
fec.ly safe and very desirable invest
ment. They will be issued OF such
denominations as to accommodate sub
scribers of limited means, and, 1t the
loan is all taken during the ensuing ten
DAYS, not more than five thousand dol
lars will be sold to any one individual.
II seems to be the aim Of the council
to make this popular investment and
to keep the bonds at home.

DEATH OF SENATOR MASON.

The telegraph informs us this morn
ing Of the death of Hon. JAMES MUIR
RAY Mason, for many years Senator OF
the United States from Virginia lie
died at his residence near Alexandria,
last Saturday morning.
Senator Mason, as he was commonly
STYLED, was a grandson of Colonel
GEORGE MASON OF revolutionary fame.
and his family has always been a
prominent one in the political history
of Virginia. He was born in Fairfax
county, in 1877, and was consequently
seventy-four yearsof age at the time OF
his death. He first entered Congress
AZ a member of the House Of Repre-
sentatives in 1887, and about ten years
later was chosen United States Senator.
He filled various prominent public
positions, was a leader OF his party in
the Senate, was chairman Of the COM
mittee on foreign relations during
many years, and was Minister OF the
United States to the Court Of France.
During the late war, he resided abroad
as diplomatic agent OF the Confederate
States. The circumstances Of his cap
ture on board the British steamer
Trent while on his way to England as
the Confederate envoy his detention at
Fort Warren; the English demand Tor
his surrender, and his release in COM
pliance with that demand, are still COM
paratively fresh in the public mind.
He continued to reside in England un-
til within the past two or three years,
during which time he has been living
in retirement in Alexandria where he
died.
Senator Mason was man Of COM
manding intellect and thorough educa-
ton. He was master in the science
of politics, a ready debater, and his
long experience in and intimate ac'
ouaintance with public affairs gave him
great influence in the United States
Senate and in the State OF Virginia, to
whose service he devoted his life.

Preventive Medication.

A radical change has been introduced in
the practice of medicine. Physicians have
ceased to torture and PROSTATE their pa
tients. Instead of pulling down, they build
up; instead of assaulting nature, they as
sist her. Cupping, leeching, blistering, VEN
esection, calimel, antimony, supplying mar
cotics, and rasping purgatives, once the
tayorite resources OF the faculty, are now
rarely resorted to even by the most dog
matte members of the profession. The old
creed was that disease was something Whlch
must be expelled by violent artificial means,
irrespective of the wear and tear OF the VI
tai organization in the process. The new
creed recognizes the improvement OF the
general health as essential to the cure OF all
local ailments. Hence IL Is that Hostetter .

tonic that pharmacy has ever brought to

the errors of the past, and that thousands,
and tens OF thousands, OF human beings
are alive and we'll to day who would indu-

they been subjected to the pains and penal

THE FLICK ELECTION.

Returns of the election held last
Thursday come in slowly, indeed. lha'
apathy which caused a remarkaoi
light vote to be cast, seems 10 eH,enu
also to the forwarding of returns. Very
few of the people took the trouble 10
vote and still smaller number seem
10 feel a sufficient interest in the result
TO send in the figures for publication
West Virginia is proverbialiy slow in
furnishing exact returns of any election
no matter how important the issue may
be, but when so little interest is taken as
has been manifested latterly in relation
to the FLICK amendment, there is no
telling when, if ever, We will get c'"
plete and official report.
We publish elsewhere all the returns
that have yet come to hand, together
with extracts from letters and from the
county newspapers in relation to the
election. 1t will be observer tha' INC
vote was exceedingly light at every 10
cality heard from. Many Of the people
were not aware that an election was TO
be held; many had forgotten all about
it; and many chose knowingly to let II
20 by default In some localities the
Democrats voted for ratification, and
the Republicans for rejection; in other
places, these positions were reversed !;
and the vote generally seems to have
been as completely non-partisan as the
most strenuous opponent Of political
parties could desire. The amendment
in the shape in which it was submitted
was not acceptable to the massot either
party, and neither looked upon 1t as
purely party measure. The conse-
ouence is seen in the very small vote
polled.

THE GAS LOAN.

Books are to be opened to-day at the
National Bank of West Virginia for
subscriptions to loan to the city Of
Wheeling to be applied in the purchase
of the Gas Works. The bonds which
the city proposes to sell possess several
very advantageous features which can
not fail to commend them to capitalists
as a desirable investment, the particu-
lars of which are fully set forth in the
advertisement to which we direct atten-
ton. .
The security offered is all that can
reasonably be asked. Three commits
sioners, one appointed by the City Coun-
ellis, one by the Gas Company, and a
third selected by these two, have been,
for some time past, engaged in making
a careful and exact estimate Of the val
ne OF the property which the city pro-
poses to buy. In making this estimate
the value of the franchise the company
has enjoyed is not considered, but sim
ply the actual present worth of the real
estate, apparatus, machinery, pipes, &c.
belonging to the Wheeling Gas Com
pany and used in the manufacture, dis
tribution and sale Of gas. The gentle
men making the valuation are three OF
our most prominent and competent citi-
zens, and their judgment may be relied
upon as being correct. Al the valua-
ton they fix, the city will buy, and the
property thus acquired is to be mort
gagged to the holders of the bonds as
security for the payment of the princi-
pal and interest of the money loaned.
Certainly no better security can be
needed. nj ~ I'll. a.r.. IS. aas ...E
