in the case Is that the statute authorizing

does not apply to coupons which at the

The West Virginia Press Association is q
comparatively recent organization. In
fact 1t received yesterday perhaps its lar
gest accession In the way Of members. 1t
isnot strange, therefore, that 1t now holds
umeeting for the first time in our midst
1t has scarcely had an an opportunityto
doso before. For the sake of all the In
terests that attach TO such an association
wesre glad that its present meeting has
occurred just at this opportune time. It Is
not only delightful season Of the year for
such gathering, but better than that, as
the Hon. @. D. Hubbard very appropri-
ately remarked in his words Of welcome to
the editors at the Mcclure House banquet
last night, 1t is a season Of great business
activity in our midst. Had the editors
met here at the date first proposed, in
June last, they would have had in some
respects at least 4 quieter time. The great
depression Of the last few years had not
then lifted from our industries. We were
only beginning to discern family the
coming Of better times, and we did
not then expect to see at any time in the
near future the full tide OF business
activity that is now upon US. We are glad
therefore that the gentlemen of the press
have happened in our midst at q time
when they can see what Wheeling really
isasa business center, and especially at a
time when her great and unequllled nail
industry shows to so much advantage.
What they saw yesterday Of our leading
industry was very happily referred
to in the remarks Of the President of,the
Association at the banquet last night, when
he said that 1t illustrated iorcibly to his
mind what combination OF labor and
capital could do for a community. He
was correct in that observation. Il does
illustrate the power Of such q combination
most torcibly. 1t Is this eombination that
has made Wheeling what she Is, aud that,
as DR.. Logan said in his remarks, has seni
abIed her to take such respectable rank
among the business centers Of the county.
The lesson that 1t teaches win not be losj
on 80 intelligent body Of men asour Cd,
iIorial yisitors,-yiz, that 1t is the mission
Of the pres to promote a cordial
unity Of feeling between, labo,
and capital, and never TO SOW III,
seeds Of diseord between them. The
strength Of community largely depends
on the cooperation Of these two elements
and on no one influence more than intelli
gent and candid discussion on the part o
the press does the heartiness Of thislco
operation depend. Unfortunately We has,
had instances since the outbreak Of Ii,
panic where the power Of the press ha
not been exerted on the side Of this sort .
discussion, but where for partisan purpo

TIE shipments OF nails from this city by
rail are very heavy just now. The Ben:
wood Mill shipped % car loads on Mon,
day, The Riverside has on several days
shipped 9j cars oil nails and iron freight.
The other mills arc also shipping in the
same proportion. A large number Of
orders are waiting on water in the river,
particularly for points on the lower Mis-.
sissippi. Advices from Cincinnati indi.
cate that that market is very bare Of nails,
andthere is pressing demand for the ex.
ecution Of orders. The shipments OF mis-.
eellaneous merchandise from Wheeling are
also very heavy. Atsix o'clock yesterday
evening the depot Of the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad was blocked with freight
waiting its turn to be loaded. The p, W.
4 Ky. depot is also a scene OF
great activity. Both depots seem TO
be hampered for room. A freight train Of
iorty cars come down on the P. W. & Ky.
On Monday. 1t was loaded mostly
with pig iron, ore and coke, but there was
also large line Of miscellaneous freight.
Business has been very active at the two
telegraph Offices since the boom commenc-
ed. Animmense number Of messages are
sent aud received by the iron men. There
is also large amount Of grocery goods
bought by telegraph through the brokers
here. Neary all the sugar, coffee and tea
sold in this market is bought by wire. At
tive as business is in all departments Of
trade, it would be much more SO II we had
river. The water Is SO low as to almost
have dried up shipments by the boats.
The first rise will bring a great deal Of
produce to this market, and also take
away great deal Of merchandise to points
along the shore.
The activity Of business in this city is
only aspecimen Of what is going on all
over the country at this time. The bank
clearings for the third week in September
show q business Of s714,OO0OOO against
s5O3,OOOO0O for the same week last year.
Only five cities in the country show a de-
crease, and Of these Ave that Of San Fran
cisco is the only important one, and there
local causes have been operating. Thisa
gregate increase of over 5000 900 in q
siugle week, it must be remembered, is
over the business Of week last year when
crops OF unprecedented magnitude were
coming forward, and when the demand
from abroad was already enormous. There
can be no more decisive proof of the pres
ence Of those good times SO long heralded,
and the boom OF business so frequently
announced.

from the truth. Wheeling owes as little
Of her prosperity to the territory in which

She has absorbed her prosperity from the
country at large, and especially from the
great West, and this prosperity she has
brought into the State and shared with all

TnE DlssATIsTlED IRIsn TENANTS


LONDON, September S0.-The Ttms, Ii
discussing the effects Of Parnelrs policy,
says: 1twould become really formidable
only II Il should extend all over Ireland.
The Pail Mall Gdrttte comedies that the
complaints Of the Irish tenant farmers are
mostly genuine; that they are for mo.
ment able 10 pay their rent, and they be.
lieye In their right TO remain on land In
any event. II the general refusal to pay
rent Is followed by 0 wholesale conviction
this again will certainly be followed BY q
series oil agrarian murders, and unless the
Irish Executive Is prepared to support the
landlord by measures amounting to little
less than the military occupation OF large
part OF the country, the landlords will
have 10 choose between virtually conced.
ing the tenants claim TO fxity Of tenure
and giving the signal for the outbreak Of
something hardly diItinguishable from
civil war.
The Rnti.rent agitation Is only one
among other symptoms, OF the general un.
rest OF Ireland. The enthusiasm by which
Parnell's progress has been attended has
infinitely weakened the hands OF the more
moderate Home Rulers and enboldened
the Ultras; and among It's first results was
the somewhat precipitate proposal TO as.
semble national convention. The gen.
orally troublous prospect In Ireland Is not
really affected by the success or failure Of
any given scheme for organizing pressure
upon the government The present tenn.
per Of the Irish people and their leaders
concerns US much more seriously than any
particular proposal for It's manifestation,
and while this temper remains whatit Is,
some sedihous among the people and
recklessly incendiary among the leaders,
the situation must be q grave one whether
the convention ever meets or not. The
old statute which prohibited conventions
In Ireland has been repealed.
