One faction of the Adair democracy
has democratic aspirations with repub-
Gcan accessories; the other faction
would be pleased to reverse tie order
by substituting republican aspirations
(for office) with democratic trimmings.
i: is hard to tell which is the head-or
tail We believe the latter has just a
"vee bit" the start just now.

INDEPENDENT candidates from con-
gress down to constable seem to be
popping up with refreshing regularity
this year. General Singleton, of Ills,
who was beaten by dark horse after
fifteen hundred ballots, is the latest
instance. The republicans are expect
ed to make no nominations.

NOTES AND COMMENT.

Wolseley has canal or two yet to
capture, and at least one dam, which
is Dami. eta.
Sir Garnet Wol5eley calls war cor
respondents of newspapers "those
newly invented curses to armies"
A bold, bad comet has been found
near the sun. The inference is that
it is baldheaded, and has come early
to get a front seat and watch for the
transit Of Venus.
Twenty-Five Mormon emissaries
left New York on Tuesday to gath
er proselytes in Europe. One Of
them was robbed of $40 while in
New York.
Surely Arab is in a measure
avenged. England has 10000 mules
on her hands and don't know what
to do with them. A good chance
for Pennsylvania politicians to
secure a few more "kickers" cheap.
Republican state conventions were
held in New York, Massachusetts,
and Connecticut Wednesday. The
nominees were G. J. Folger, Robert
b. Bishop and VIM. IL. Buckley,
respectively.
Mrs. Booth, wife and active coad-
iutor of the general of the Salvation
Army, is the daughter of an English
lady Of rank, who was banished from
friends and home because she chose
to marry a Methodist preacher in
stead of man Of wealth and posi-
ton, who was a sutton for her hand.
Representative Belford, Of Colo
RADIO, has a tolerable good opinion Of
himself and colleagues. He told the
Colorado Republican State Conven-
ton that in the late session Of Con-
gress the three representatives from
their state accomplished more for
the substantial interest Of the state
than any other forty men in either
branch of the national legislature.

Would that not strike the coun-
try as a novel proposition ?''
1T might, but its novelty would
not impeach its JUSTICE" said Mr..
Blaine. Another consideration
would weigh powerfully with me,
and that is the fact of Virginia's
cession of all the northwest terri
tory for the common veal nearly a
hundred years ago. have thought
of this matter a great deal since the
debt agitation began in Virginia
last year. | have asked myself why
Virginia alone Of all the Confederate
States should be made to suffer dis
poilment and dismemberment. That
which would bring lasting relief and
prosperity to Virginia would be the
yeriest trifie for the general govern
ment to concede."
"Do you think West Virginia
ought to pay a share Of the debt ~
under a il the circumstances / do
not, nor do | believe there is a State
in the Union situated as w. Virginia
is that would assume any portion
of the Virginia debt. You must re-
meber that we did not erect the
State Of West Virginia to oblige its
inhabitants. We did it as a war
measure for the benefit Of the whole
Union, and the State of Virginia
bore the costly sacrifice alone. 1t is
not, in my judgement, fair or right
that Virginia alone should be made
the victim for the sins of the dead
Confederacy."

A FOOL'g Folly.

The Statesman Of this week con-
tanned the following notice of the
Fair, and foolish fling at the INDIE
PENDENT
1.-THE slim attendance at our coun-
ty Fair, speaks trumpet t0ngued Of
the towering influence Of the Inde-
pendent, in this county. The STATES.
MAN and the Herald were both com.
pletely tabO0ed by the Printing com
mittee, and the consequence has
been very serious one to those pub
lie spirited citizens of our county,
mostly farmers whose liberality
four years ago stepped in to save the
Association from collapse and whose
financial standing and high public
credit has kept it on its feet ever
since.'
We doubt If the Herald endorses
such nonsense, but if from the above
we are to understand that an editors
duty to public enterprises and home
interests is to be measured by the
size of his account, or if any citi-
zen's interest in the public welfare
must be purchased by patronage,
then that editor or that citizen needs
watching as much as a thief at mid
night or the betrayer of a mothers
trust. 1t is bad enough to demand
arrangements in advance in politics,
but it is certainly outrageously mean
to demand pay TO advance the pub
lie veal. The man that does it, de-
serves to be thrOttled The man or
the organization who either trembles
under such a lash, or yields to such
a scourge, is too sycophantic to
breathe the air of freedom. If what
has been accomplished, is the result
of the sole effort Of the INDEPEN-
DENT, then it is proud of the result,
and prouder of the knowledge that it
did its whole duty and takes this
opportunity of saying, that no per-
sonal spleen will cause it to become
a piratical wrecker of the public
good, even though here and there an
opponent shares in the good. Per-
sonal animosity must always give
way to public interests.

Hon. VIM. S. WILSON, of Jeffer-
son county, was nominated for Con-
gress by the Democratic Convention
which assembled at Piedmont on
Wednesday last. Perfect harmony
and good feeling prevailed. Mr..
Wilson was an elector in the Ham
cock campaign--was a delegate to
the National Convention, and has
been recently made president Of the
West Virginia University. The
election takes place on the 10th of
October, within seventeen days, so
but little time is given him to make
a canvass Of fifteen counties. Mr..
Wilson is an honorable gentleman,
though of retiring disposition, and
il anything is better fitted for liter
airy pursuits or neutrality-suspicious. in
education fields, rather than the
turbulent world of politics.

TWIN COMETS.

PROF. Z. e. BARNARD, of Nash
vile, Tenn, on the 14th inst. dis
covered new comet located near
the star lambda, i'm the constellation
of the Twins. His discovery was an
nounced by telegraph to Mr.. II. II.
Warner, at the Warner Observatory,
Rochester, n. y, and almost at the
same moment Prof, Lewis Swift,
Director of the Warner Observatory,
received intelligence that a large
naked-eye comet had been discover
ed in Rio Jaueirio, South America.
Prof. Barnard is the first person the
present year to receive the Warner
prize of 5000. The fact that these
two comets came into view at the
same time is exceedingly significant.

BLAINE ON RIAHONEESNE.
West Virginia am Empire Of
Wealth.

At an interview in Chicago Mon
day, Hon. James G.. Blaine express
ed himself on the subject of Malone
ism more freely and forcibly than he
has hitherto done in any public ut
terance. He said +: 81 have not
seen a Virginian for months, nor
have | written word to the State.
At the same time it is due to frank
ness that l should express my entire
sympathy with the straight RepubIi-
can movement in that State "
"You are opposed, then, to the
Malone movement ?"
Eyes, and | always have been. l
think it was a great political blunder
to unite the Republican party with
the Readiusters. The Republican
party has been always devoted to up.
holding the public faith, and this
fact contributed powerfully to the
victory Of 1880. To turn right round
and join the reputation wing of the
Virginia Democracy seemed to me
the last degree Of folly for the Re-
publicans. "
"What would you have advised in
1881, when the split came in the Viz
ginia Democracy ?"
II would have advised and did adj
wise so far as 1t was my business,
that the Republicans should all hold
to their own standard, and not be-
come complicated with any theories
of reputation. In that way good
men Of all parties would have been
drawn to US.
"How was the Garfield cabinet on
the cabinet ?" Queried the reporter.
Divided" said Mr.. Blaine. "Di-
vided about as evenly as seven men
can be divided on the question, and
therefore no positive or effective
thing was done in the early stage of
the campaign, and the tragedy of
July ? removed it from c0nsidera-
ton. "
"Why do you think Virginia
should not be expected to pay the
whole debt as other States have
done ~
"Principally because She was torn
and dismembered by the war, and
her ability to pay was very greatly
impaired. No other State Of the
Confederacy suffered as Virginia
did. No other State was mutilated
as she was West Virginia, which
was torn from her in the violence Of
war as a war measure, is an empire
of wealth lost forever to the Old
State. No equal area in this coun-
try is SO rich in natural resources as
West Virginia. Its people desire
the new State and should have it,
but the loss to the old State is very
great"
"What do you think win be the
end of it all 20
81 do not know" said Mr.. Blaine,
shut 1 should be glad TO see the gem
eral government aid Virginia in
some practical way ig settling her
debt. When we were at War with
Mexico and dismembered her terri
tory we made her AN allowance Of
many millions o. dollars, ana think
we could afford To be equally just
and generous to one OF our own
States that we dismembeied for our
own advantage"

CONTRACTORS are not always sup
posed to have time to inform them
selves on such topics as artificial
stone, which will account for the
statement Of one of themthat the
process of making such stone is a
modern one. 1t is, in fact, a very
old one. Roman aqueducts built at
least 20Q0 years ago, are encountered
from time to time, and the discOve-
ries 90 to show that the ancient Ro-
mans thoroughly understood the art
of cOmpounding cement, the hard
ness Of which increased as centuries
passed The formation of this ma
terial into great blocks, such as were
made by Eads and Andrews for the
South Pass sea wall, is, however, a
comparatively modern process. But
if bricks can be called artificial stone,
and there is no good reason to the
contrary, then the making of such
stone is a process which ante-dates
the pyramids and finds a record upon
the craven tombs of Assyria.

THE iron bands and thread that
mark the advance of the nineteenth
century have never united two cities
so diverse in every characteristic as
were joined last week. The city of
Boston and the City of Mexico. The
thousands Of miles between them
are as nothing compared with the
divergence Of their traditions, their
people and their past. That a con-
tinuous track and slender wires
should unite Fanuel Hall and the
halls Of the Montezumas in bonds Of
mutual interest is one of the events
that are born in this age of achieve
ments.

THE XI ANNUAL FAIR.

AS was reported last week, this
fair was a success in the way of ex-
hibits, and so far as profits are con
cerned not a failure. The associa-
ton realized above expenses and pre-
miums of the fair about six hundred
dollars. If it was clear of the in
debtedness which was not caused by
any of its fairs, it would pay annually
a reasonable dividend. When it is
considered that the stockholders,
and in many instances their families,
are admitted free Of charge, and to
that is added season tickets to lady
exhibitors for the small sum of
twenty-five cents, the outcome is
rather gratifying instead Of depress'
ing. Whilst a few men have had a
great burden to bear, still to the pub
lie it has been a great blessing, in
the way of improvements to every
thing in the way of stock, imple-
ments, garden, dairy and household
use. In this way the county fair has
been worth thousands of dollars to
the people.

IN the rifle shooting at Creedmore
last week the British team won a
decisive victory over the American
team. The superiority of the visit
ing team was so marked that the pc
sitiOns Of a few years ago are entire
ly reversed. Then the American
teams were nearly always successful.
Since that time the British have
made rifle shooting study,and have
a large number of excellent marks
men, from the cream OF which its
team is selected On this side of
the water we have been going on in
the old amateur way, and have thus
fallen into the second rank.
