SEEING SARATOGA.
EIr. Sprigg;ns Explains why Peo-
pie don't do it in June-Some
Hints about the Coast.

Saratoga Letter to the y. y. Tribune.
Il wonder WHY pcoPIc don't come to
Saratoga in June. when the hotels are
less crowded, and the thermometer and
prices are lower
We were sitting on the broad piazza,
Mr.. SprigyinS and |, with our heels
comfortably elevated above our heads.
1t was :ha; spoke.
Reasons enough why moi" replied
Mr.. Spriggins. In the first place, no.
body wants 10 CONE when there's no.
body here; everybody comes for the
sake OF seeing everybody. They don't
come to drink the waters, and if they
did they wouldn't come in June; this
filing oneself with salt water is bad
enough with the mercury at ninety
nine but who wants to pickle and re-
peat with it down in the sixties! Man
isn't 4 mackerel. The De Mulligans
and Van Murphys don't come in June
because the La Bourkes and Van
O. Toolcs are not coming until July,
the LaBourkes and VanOTooles don't
come in July because it is understood
that the De Mulligans and Van Muir
phys won't be here till July. The fact
is, no m an with q family could get here
earlier if he wished TO, heres Mrs
Spriggins, for instance; she S been get
ting ready ever since Lent, and SAYS
she isn't fit 10 be seen now. And |
don't think she is, mysell-a woman
Of her age with all of those gcwgaws
on "a red thingambob over a yellow
what dye call it, and the rear stuck
out-made '6M6aRty, she calls it-wIth
a steel spring thingamy. We've been
married nigh on thirty years, and I'm
bald as a cobble stone, bald as an as
phalt pavement, for that matter, and
| Won QON Inlnk Sle Is Duil VI lONhl u ,
Oh, no, l guess not, Why, she's been
fixing for Saratoga these three months
past, and I've shipped out enough to
set up a grocery store, and when We
started Yesterday morning she wasn't
half ready yet, and that l was alway S
hurrying her. and that she had moth
ing to wear that would take people
down considerably. Come here III
Iune? a man with his wife at his
back couldn't get here in June unless
she started to get ready in January,
and thea with six months at it the
chances are she'd burst him so he
couldn't come at ALL" And, biting his
cigar viciously, Mr.. Spriggins disap-
peared in the vicinity Of the liaihorn
Spring, stopping to kick at small boy
who intercepted him with Saratoga
and How to See It," for fifty cents.
The idea Of seeing Saratoga for
fifty cents" l heard him mutter, low
down in his beard.

That the depression in our trade has

Editorial Convention.

In the last issue Of the STATE Jour-
nal, is an editorial advocating the hold
ing OF meeting OF the West Virginia
Press Association at Clarksburs on
the 10Th, 18th and 18th Of September
next, that being the time Of the Clarks-
burg Fair. The Association, il will be
remembered, was 10 have held meet
ing there in May last, but so little i'm
portance was paid to the matter, that,
when we visited the tcwn on Conven.
tiou day, scarcely an editor or pub
Usher was 10 found. Why the Press
OF the State was so negligent Of their
own interests We cannot say. But we
heartily second this later move for 4
convention. Let it be held by all
means. The time and the place suit
US exactly, though we will consent to
any other that will please majority.
There are many practical questions
which should come before such con-
vention, and perhaps The most import
ant, is that OF foreign advertisements
and advertising agents. AS at present
conducted, these advertising agencies,
which infest the cities, are little else
than a nuisanceto country publishers,
and steps should be taken to compel
them to pay a reasonable price for
work done. or else they should be drir-
en- from the field, and the business done
with advertisers direct. So far as our
own paper is concerned, we uniformly
decline the petty offers otthese agents,
and where something like reasonable
price cannot be obtained we do not in
sert at all. Our space is limited and
we can always fill it with good paving
home advertisements, SO that we claim
to make no extraordinary sacrifice in
this matter Of lettering prices, and yet
we think there should be concert Of &C
ton in regard 10 il, and are willing to
Join heartily with our brethren Of the
press, to effect the needed reformation.
We know every publisher in the State
has felt the grievance ofwhich we COM
plain, and believe all are willing to CO.
operate in bringing about better state
OF Affairs. Then let the convention be
held, the Subject discussed, and uni
form line OF conduct adopted toward
a.. agents who forward advertisements
from the cities.
We cut the above notice from the
Grafton Sentinel, and endorse all its
views on this subject. We would like
to have the editors, however, hold
their convention at Volcano. We can
o!.er YOU a good Hall, and also give
good accommodations. Come here,
gentlemen, and take good look at the
future Capital Of West Virginia.

THE PoIsoN OF VICE.-VICE is
ever seeking to poison the beauty OF
virtue. The vicious man. whea look
ing upon the frank and open coun-
tenance Of a child, finds something to
rebuke the worHings OF his guilty soul
while the virtuouS man sees something
in it to love and admire; but in the
former the influence too often loses its
effects, while the latter feels al eleva-
