A delegation from Bethany isexpected to
participate inlhs demonstration, and the
3 citizens generally Of WellSburg are In

, rather inclines to be humorous over the
; programme Of proceedings and pokes fun

GJust at sunrise the Nations natal day

should anybody be 50 fortunate as to rise
early enough 10 perform that important
duty. And 1t is understood that all good
and law.abiding citizens, who have theil
country's beat, interests at heart, will moi

The Herald, composed Of good citizens,

Court House steps. These, Centennial

cur again 10 this part OF Uncle Sam's do
minions. A shorthand writer will be
present, to take down every word as they
fall from the lips OF these immortal Dc
mostheneses, and carefully revised for in
sertion in the Ne,rs.
The good old county OF Marshall will
not be behind any part Of the country In
the matter OF patriotic zeal on the Ma

Up at Washington, Pa, the people dt
not seem to be making any special pre-
parations to celebrate the Glorious
Fourth. Like Wellsburg, however, th'
people Of Washington are little pecu
lara law unto themselves, as it werer-
and move in their own way at the proper
time. We judge from the following par
agraph in the Observer that there is
latent, even il not volcanic, feeling OF
the subject, that will come to the surfac'
in good style next Tuesday. That paper
alludes to this prospect as follows;
We are informed that our business mer
have decided to close their places Of bus
iness on the 4th, Of July and give that do!
to their country. This Is right. We hav'
q Centennial 4th onlg once In lifetime
and we hope all the citizens Of Washing
ton will see the propriety Of joining Z
make II grand and glorious one. Gle
ready to celebrate, let all business b.
closed, fling out your bunting and bright
en- up the brass horns and drums. Le
us have hp.roaring, red-hot, royal ole
Fourth Of July. .
In the interior Of this State, Morgan
town will probably take the lead in cele
brating the Hundredth Anniversary. ".
have already published the programme o.
proceedings, which shows extensive pre-
parations for the proper observance o
the day. No doubt ex-senator Wiley vii
deliver an Grafton worthy OF the occasion
and of his reputation as an orator. Th,
whole programmed proceedings will b
under command Of Col. Joe Snyder.
AT Grafton no special programme ii
the way of celebration has been an
nounced, but the Sentinel calls on the peo
pie not to let the occasion pass without
due commemoration. We copy from it
last issue tho following suggestions to th'
people:
"Can we not have a grand torchligh
procession on the night Of the Srd? Al
the day following is 10 be the most memo
rable In the history. OF the country, and
as everybody Is expected to make the
Fourth q grand, jolly, good time, 1t seems
but fitting that II be ushered In in the
manner above indicated. No body Of
course will be expected to sleep tha
night, as 1t will be given up 10 the firing
OF cannon and the ringing Of bells, so thai
those who cannot engage in either Of these
