The A. AP. and Mo. l.. X. RS.

ST. LOUIS, September SIT was stated
in the dispatches last night that Andrew
Pierce, jr., and his associates would
probably purchase the Atlantic and Pa
citic railroad to-day, AID that Vt WAS
quite likely that this road and the Mis-
souri, Parilic would BE- consolidated under
the new organization, and he controlled
hy one management. Whatever may
have been contemplated in this direction
it has been abandoned, and today
the purchasers of the Missouri Pscihc
entered into an arrangement with Com
missioner &. X. Garrison, under when
he will have control and assume the
management of that road. This arrange,
ment WAS made with the consent and
under the authority of majority OF the
third mortgage bondholders and 1t seems
to give very general satisfaction.

DON'T WAIT ON COMMITTEES.

The Democrats in the various coun-
ties and election districts in West
Virginia, should at once complete their
organization. What is wanted is for
three, tour or five active men who have
the success OF the cause at heart, in each
district to come together and set down
and talk the situation over. We mean
the situation in their own immediate
neighborhood. Let them take piece Of
paper or q small blank memoran-
dunn book, and write down the name Of
every man entitled to vote, residing IN
their magisterlal district. After that is
done, classify the voters into Democrats,
Republicans and doubtful, if there are
any Of the latter class. Some one Of the
mum Der will probably knew every man
in your district and his political views
If any voter needs to be seen and have
the issues explained TO him, appoint one
of your members to see and talk with
him. Ifany one needs dOcum ents, try and
procure some good newspaper, or speech,
or document of some kind for him. By
sending the names of such persons, with
their postoffice address, to the State Com
mittee, No. 1888 Market street. Wheel
ing, documents will be mailed to them.
Form TILDEN and HENDRICKS club in
your neishborhood, and if you can get u
man who is accustomed to public speaking
to come and address you once in awhile
do so, but if you cannot, then do the
talking yourselves. Turn the club into
a sort of experience meeting, and le'
every one get up and give the result OF
his reading, observation and reflection.
These club gatherings at the country
school houses, can be made both inter-
estlng and profitable in this way.
After having completed your lists OF
voters, use them: First, by hunting up
the inactive and inciting them to action;
visiting the disstiected and trying to re-
move the cause of their disstiectlon; see
ing the doubtful, talking with them, and
supplying them with proper reading mat
ter. Second have your lists at the polls
on the day of election, and, whenever
voter appears and pats in his ballot'
check of his name; and those who are
tardy in coming, send Tor.
Now, all this you can do without
awaiting the action of any Committee,
National, State, or County; you need
wait for no appointment or authority to
act. If you love the cause and desire
its success, go now to work.
1t is the fashion to stand back and
wait for some committee to do the work
you ought to do yourselves, and that in
the end must be done by yourselves
if it is done at all. In the
very nature of things, committee located
at distant point cannot do the work
above suggested, yet that work is the
most important and most effective that
can be performed. Without just such
organization and such work, you cannot
hope to have your cause succeed. As
we'll might you expect victory to perch
upon the banners of an army without or
ganizstion as upon your cause while your
forces are scattered.
