ireland Crushed.

1t is evident enough that Ireland
cannot succeed in its present contest
with England. The iron heel Of
British despotism is again planted
upon the necks Of that struggling
people, with no hope Of relief except
what comes of patient endurance Of
wrong and outrage. Oppression may
be made, by heroic courage, and en-.
durance, too expensive a policy for
England long to pursue, and a losing
game for the landlords themselves
When the choice is, as in this case,
between starvation and surrender
the issue is not doubtful. The Irish
land leaguers themselves seem tc
have abandoned all hope Of success
full resistance except what comes
from despair. In an address by o
Land League Journal to the Irish
people, is this responding view Of the
situation:
ut is now plain that the freedom
Of opinion is for moment at an END
in Ireland, except for the enemies Of
the people or for those still more dan
gerous fends, who are taking advan.
tage Of the paralysis of public opin
ion, in order to deaden the peoples
courage and to aid the design Of for
eign coercion by the craven counsels
nearer home. Whoever speaks one
word that is burning in a million
hearts, is struck dumb by the mailed
hand; whoever openly or secretly
bids the people to desist from the
cause to which they have pledged
their lives and honor before the
world is pitied for his treason and
glorifed for his cowardice.

Il is claimed that the road can
earn that amount from the start, and
soon double it.
The projectors argue that the Ches.

from Richmond, Virginia, to Hun.

from nowhere to nowhere, and with

Owners of valuable cual, timber
and iron ore lands along the line in
West Virginia have promised to give
about three hundred thousand acres
Of their lands.
A Construction Company has been
formed under the law Of New Jersey
to build and equip the road.
II is called the Union improve
ment Company, and will have a cap
ital stock Of 100000.
The Railroad Company will deliv
er to the Improvement Company
s25, 600, 900 of first mortgage six pei
cent. bonds and s25, 100000 of com
mon stock in consideration of the
construction and equipment of the
road by the Improvement Company
The improvement Company will
first receive subscriptions TO its own
capital stock of 100000, ant
when all taken will call up install
ments on the same as required, anc
proceed at once with the construc
ton of the road.
The Improvement Company will
then negotiate, through its bankers
the s25,00O,0oo of bonds received
from the Railroad Company, and
when sold will use $4,000, 600 of the
money TO reimburse the stockholders
of the Improvement Company fol
the amount of cash paid in by them
and apply the remaining sl5,000,00(
to the completion and equipment o.
the road as per contract.
This will leave the s25,000,000 o.
railroad stock in the hands of the
Improvement Company, and when
that is divided up among the holders
of the S10,000,000 improvement Com
pany stock it will make a dividend
to them in railroad stock of two and
one-half times the amount Of theil
original investment.
Besides which they get back the
whole amount Of their original in.
veitment in cash from the sale o.
bonds, as stated.

A Fresh Start For the w. r. g.
C.. Railroad.

The W., P. & c. Railroad project
appears to have taken on some fresh
enthusiasm since the meeting at Par
kersburg, the other day.
The people Of that city, especially,
are manifesting new zeal in carry
ing forward the preliminary prepa-
rations for the road.
We see no reason, however, why
there should have been such n lull in
active operations az has existed for
some time prior to the melting
The delay Of the engineer in locating
the route may have been largely re.
sponsible for this, yet the right kind
of energy and determination would
not have permitted this.
Now, it is hoped the all important
matter of the right of way will be
pushed forward with all possible dis
patch. We understand that Col.
Robert White, of this city, has been
commissioned by the company for
this work, and we have no doubt, if
given sufficient latitude, he will 60
into it with his accustomed energy
and finish it with due dispatch.
It is true that railroads are not
built in day, but when VIC consider
the vast Importance of this road and
that its success greatly depends on
dispatch, both by reason of that be.
ing one of the conditions upon which
the money is to be furnished, and the
fact that rival line is being pushed
forward on the Ohio side of the river,
no mere tritling or unnecessary de.
lays should have been tolerated, but
every moment of the summer season
should have been assiduously i'm
proved.
We do not make these comments
in a fault finding spirit, but rather
with view of impressing upon all
concerned the importance Of dispatch
in order to make up the lost time Of
the past season. We believe there is
a latent interest in this enterprise
that will not allow it to fail unless it
be in counting too confidently on the
future. 1t is we'll that what is to be
done, be done quickly: The necessa-
ry means is pledged. And there have
sprung up, since the project first
opened, increased inducements 10 the
building Of the road. But all these
opportunities, nevertheless, are de.
pendent on the degree of speed with
which it is now pushed to a consum-
nation Wheeling Register.

We thank the Hinton Herald fer
announcing us as a candidate for Con.
gress, in the new district. We would
like to know from whence he got his
information, TO make such announce
ment? Really we had not thought
Of such thing. We return the com.
pliment by announcing that our
friend G. L. Thompson Of the Herald,
will be candidate for Congress, and
we hope he will succeed in getting
the Democratic nomination, for there
is no man in the State we would
rather see go to Congress than Bro.
Thompson. But in his district he'll
have Kanawha county, and he'll
have to gulp it down, whether he and
Senator Bob. Dennis objects or not.
In making up the new districts there
is no place to put Kanawha except
among the counties Of Greenbrier

dillon to the light Of way to build o
road ON the Ohio side Of the river
from Marietta to Bellaire, while on
the West Virginia side we are asked
only to furnish the right Of way, that
if our people now fail to secure the
road on the West Virginia side on
conditions so reasonable, it will not
be creditable to their enterprise or
public spirit.
Resolved further, That with view
to an efficient organization in man;
aging the affairs Of the company,
looking to the procurement OF the
right Of way and getting the road in
shape to be placed under contract,
that committee consisting Of G. w.
Thompson, Jr., Vice President; Chas.
II. Shaiuck and W. y Chancellor be
appointed, who shall have full power
and authority to employ assistants
and to do all things deemed necessary
to obtain the right of way and to
furnish to this company full infor.
nation in regard to the same, that
the engineers in charge report to the
committee and the said committee
report from time to time to the board.
The last resolution invests the COM
mittee with ''full power and authori.
ty to employ assistants and to do all
things deemed necessary TO obtain
the right of way"
1t is to be hoped that this commit
tee will exercise that power to the
extent of settling and securing the
the right of way beyond any quib-
bling and without further delay
This they must do if they want the
road built.
We pointed out, n few days ago, the
only direct and business method TO
accomplish this. If the right of way
cannot be obtained through negotia-
tions with the owners Of the land,
the only alternative left is to obtain
it through the courts, and the longer
application to the courts is deferred,
the longer will this matter be hang,
ing fire.
Let the committees report to the
company be in the form of deeds for
the right of way over the whole

who sought to unite the party by
numbering Garfield. His line of de,

it is also limited that some men now

This is indeed sad, if true. There
is no brighter lawyer in the State
than Judge Melvin, but whisky is his
ruin. The Register further says:
Judge Melvin may not be the only
Judge on the bench in this State who
allows strong drink to rob him of his
senses at times, but this is the most
fragrant and outrageous case, and the
membersin the Legislature from Ohio
county cannot fail, in the full per-
