THE WORLD FOR 1880,

Democrats everywhere should inform
themselves carefully alike of the sction OF
their party throughout the country and OF
the movements of their Republican oppo-
nents. A failure to do this in 1876 contrib
utcd greatly to the loss by the Democracy
of the fruits Of the victory fairly won at
the polls
The year 1880 promises to be one of the
most interesting and important years OF
this crowded and eventful century. 1t Will
witness Presidential election which may
result in re-establishing the Government OF
this country on the principles of its consta-
tutional founders, or in permanently
changing the relations of the States to the
Federal power. No intelligent man can
regard such an election with indifference.
During the past year Tho World has seen
its daily circulation trebisd and its weekly
circulation pushed far beyond that Of any
other weekly newspaper in the country.
| This great increase has been won, as The
| World believes, by truthfulness, enter
prise, ceaseless activity in collecting news
and unfaltering loyalty to itself and to its
readers in dealing with the questions OF
the day. It is our hope and it will be ouI
| endeavor that The Worlds record for 1880
may be written in the appreciation aud
the support Of many thousands more Of
now readers in all parts Of this lndissoiube

SUSPICIOUS.

From the weekly scribbling and
clippings of some person having ac-
cess to the editorial columns of the
Post, favoring "a young and progress
size State ticketv and ignoring any
other kind, one would suppose that
he had some personal interest or
claim at stake, to cause him to pre-
fer, with such pertinacity, youth and
inerp erience to age and brains. One
might infer that he belonged to the
youthful and inexperienced class OF
self-dubbed, young,vigorous and pro
gressive organizers, and was afraid
Of brains and ripe experience.
In the last issue of the
Post that youthful scribbler heads
an editorial, "Giue US a Progressive
State ticket" In it, he stufs part
of what purports to be an editorial
from the Clarksburg Telegram, in
these words: at, (the Republican
party, does not invite the independ
ent voter to help induct into office
any place hunter, but live and pro-
gressive young men of our day and
generation"
Let that scribbler now clear his
skirts Of this suspicion by giving his
age, and by declaring himself not
an aspirant for place on the State
ticket.
Men may be divided into three
groups:
The first, comprising that group
"twixt boy and youth, whose
thought is speech, and speech is
truth"
The second-the group between
manhood and ripened intellect, who
often suppose themselves the Atlas
of the World, until they learn better,
as experience and intellect ripens.
This class often leaps before it
looks.
The thi,d-that group whose ex-
perlence have ripened with their age,
and whose UiSdom sheds a halo Of
light on their pathway and conduct.
This class looks before it leaps, and
if we are not mistaken, the writer in
the Posts editorial columns
alluded to, belongs to the second
group or class. If not, let him clear
himself of the suspicion.

old Archie, after growing gray in the
service of his party, is turned out to
die as an old fogy. BY the way,
would it not be well for Sturgiss TO
make aceekly trips to Wheeling, if
for no other purpose than to see that
his pieces are regularly printed.
But alas, it is said that the best
laid plans Of men and mice will fail
so now the Ozark Horse" is spoken
of. The late decision Of the Supreme
Court of the United States, together
with great personal notoriety, has
suddenly placed Dennis Clark at the
front, with the best chance by all
odds, because being Of the right col
or, if he should be counted out By
the State authorities, he has nothing
to do but to make affidavit that he
is Niger, and that the State laws
in allowing aohtte men to vote against
him is a discrimination against him
under the fourteenth amendment, and
that Court is bound to reverse
the decision of the people, and declare
Dennis Governor of the State, and if
insisted on by Dennis, that Court
will order the arrest and imprison-
ment Of all aohite persons Dho uoted
against Dennis.
That decision is predcated on the
theory that a niger has a right to
be tried or elected by his peers-that
white State Judges, Jurors and per-
sons are not his peers, but that the
members Of the Supreme Court of
the United States are his peers, and
without DEPRESSING too far, allow us
to say that few more such decisions
as those recently made by that Court
and the people will fast conclude that
a majority of that Court should con-
fine themselves to trying niggers
alone.
But to conclude, Dennis, the
Ozark Horse" is now in the lead by
several lengths, and we suggest to
the faithful that they could not do
better than to nominate him by ac-
cldmation.
According to the theory and ambi-
ton of this "young and vigorous
organizer" men of ripe experience
and brains, must stand back, and in
experienced and brassy men must
come to the front; now in the Dark
Horse Dennis, will be seen glorious
and harmonious blending of these
differences of opinions; for Dennis
is neither old, nor yet young, and ev-
cry one can see is not brassy; his
face and color shows that: and be-
sides,h his is the very color with which
all other shades and colors of the
Republican party can blend and har-
monte. Huzza for the Dark Horse
of Monongalia county,!

lowing item, taken from the Spirit Of

of consideration by the citizens Of
Morgantown and Monongalia, wheth-

encourage in their midst an organ
that deals in unreserved abuse and
ealumniation of the Governor, Legis-

ocratic authority that exercises any
control over the fortunes Of the West

becomes more significant under the
