Denver, Col, is one Of the wonderful

has become city of 45, 900 people, and
most of this has been gained within
five years. In 1876 its real estate would
hardly sell for taxes, while now de-
sirabie business sites bring $3.50 to $500

The Indiana Campaign.

We give below an extract from
accounts of the recent campaign IN
Indiana, where the issue OF temper
ance in the advocacy of the submls'
sion of the prohibitory Amendment
was most prominent. The extract
shows the kind of earnest work
done, and although we go to press
too early to announce the result Oh
the election, we are quite sure that
whether victory for the temper
ance hosts was complete, or wheth-
er it is delayed, tho preaching and
praying and the noble women's
work that has been done will all be
gathered up in complete victory
for the right at no distant day
This is how they worked;
Mr.. L. G. Wallace, President of
the Woman's Christian Temper
ance Union, has issued an appeal
to the pastors of churches, urging
them tc preach sermons and offer
prayers next Sunday in behalf of
the submission of the prohibitory
amendment. She also calls upon
all Christian women of the State to
observe next Tuesday as a day of
prayer for the success Of their
cause.
An appeal to pastors of all
churches and the Christian people
of Indiana has been issued by Col.
Merrill, Chairman of the committee
representing the Methodist, Bap-
fist, Congregational, Presbyterian,
Christian, Episcopal, and Friends
Churches of indianapolis, remind
ing them of the non-partisan orr
gin of the amendment, and urging
one or more temperance meetings
to be held in every church before
the election.

Father against Son.

Among the notable features OF
the next Legislature will be faith
er and son representing the same
constituents, elected by opposing
political parties. At the late cleo
ton, Judge J. H. Brown, Republi-
can, and his son, J. F. Brown, Dem
ocrat, both of Kanawha county,
were elected.
AS another interesting fact we
note again, two brothers elected to
the House of Delegates from differ
ent counties, but they will be
found fighting in the same ranks as
Republicans, and also for temper
anee. We refer to the Rev. David
Powell, of Taylor, and ex-Sherif
VIM. Powell, of Tyler.

Tyler's Sheep Fair.

The Star gives very full and in
teresting account of the successful
Sheep Fair held at the farm of
Mckay Brothers, Tyler Co., Oct.
2Sth.
Some very fine sheep were ex-
hibited and the whole affair was
very encouraging to the industry
in the county.
The judges to award premiums
were Messrs. James Ash, VIM. Cor
bit, John w. Lazier, Arthur Arch
err, Sr, F. E. Boyles, John Wood
burn, and John Riggle.
The exhibits were divided into
five classes, and LIST, End and Sd pre-
miums awarded in each,
Mr.. Joseph Mckay and wife pro-
vided a sumptuous repast for the
exhibitors and friends, to which
the Star OF course PAID especial at
tention, as editors always do.
Among the exhibitors of fine
stock, we see mentioned Messrs.
Henry Howard, Joseph A, Gorrell,
VIM. Baker, Jacob Hugus, Mckay
Bros, Joseph Archer, Swan & Pier
point, B. F. Gorrell, Oldham &
Twyford, Thos. Twyford, DR.. NJ. R.

Col R. S, Corbitt presided over
the proceedings.

did beginning Of an annual Sheep
Fair that will doubtless become
one of the permanent and valuable
institutions Of the enterprising
grangers Of old Tyler,

Machine Smashing Day.

Doubtless great many old rick
ity, rotten political machines in
many parts of the country were
smashed to smithers, yesterday, by
that independent, free-spirited
etnachipable troop of American lads
that go about with their little
unpurchasable ballots and delight
to play havoc with the plans of
the heartless bosses who think to
run their big party machines right
over all their happy play-houses
and things.
This is the sort of mob law we're
in for, Give it to 'em, boys! Pelt
their hateful machines to pieces,
beyond all surgery.

and happy in the assurance Of a
prosperous season.
OF our two days meanderings in
the city, some little may be gath
cred from wheeling Trip Notes"
in another column.
Without any notable haps or
mishaps, Friday at noon we under
took the more hazardous and uncer-
tain task of accomplishing the COM
pletion of our circuit, down the
THIRD SIDE OF THE TRIANGLE, TO
PARKERsBURG.
In good weather, with plenty of
water, this river side or the base of
this collateral triangle of West
Virginia's lines of transportation,
is much the more comfortable to
travel. There is no means of tray
ell affording at once so much rest,
comfort and pleasure, as a we'll
appointed, well-officered steamboat
with plenty of water under the
keel. But these don't always all
come together and what was our
disappointment and chagrin, as
the Regular was ploughing grandly
down the beautiful river, to find
two big steamers with fleets Of lows
aground in Fish Greek Ripple, COM
pletely blocking up the channel,
with not enough water for us to get
by,
Here, those of us that had to be
home by morning, whether we
could get there or not, were in
fix, to be sure, with the Regular
tied to shore, and neither the pros
poets of a rise nor of miracle at
all promising. But time brings
us out of all dilemmas at one end or
the other. Our ready and willing
crew, by helpipg the worn-out
crews of the tow-boats, working
hard all night, got them through
the ripple, and on we came as glad
and merry as glad and merry could
be on a gular packet II hours be-
hind time on a twelve hours trip,
reaching Parkersburg, as we did, at
I'm Saturday, just "a hours from
Wheeling.
But then we had lots O time to
"read up" on board, and scribble
these notes.
"Tis ever thus"-but then it
won't be when our Railroads done,
Then we'll have our low-water
steamers on top the bank, and in
high water can take our choice.

Not Responsible.

1t may be that FREEMAN Ike
johnson is alone responsible
for COTS election, but we don't
believe it. Certainly no one man
could have spent all the money,
drank all the whisky, and done all
the lying Wet7el Democrat.
Quite correct. If the Democrats
implied premises be true, its con-
illusions are correct. If there were
any Of the three things done as
mentioned, we are not responsible.
We done some honest talking,
but spent no money, drank no
whisky, and told no lies.

Artistic Beauties and Holiday Du-
ties.

Of course churl or rheumatic
GROWER may go through the worlo
stoutly protesting that there's nc
beauty in it, in which case, he will
of course neither see nor recognize
any duty in it. But fortunately
the world is not filled with churls
and GROWERS. There be good, gen
ial, clever people in it, and many
of them, who delight in studying
the worlds Beauties. and in perform
ing the worlds duties, between man
and man, and especially in doing
those happy little offices that love
and duty imposes between man
and woman. AS the holidays
come on, friend will want to re-
member friend in the bestowment
of gifts that will at once testify OF
affection and cultivate taste and
love for the beautiful.
A brief look through the Art
Rooms of Mr.. John w. Heiskell,
No. 20 Twelfth St., Wheeling,
would we are sure, move any man
Of heart and brains, to morallZlng
on "Artistic Beauties and Holiday
Duties" as announced in the cap
ton of these remarks.
We called while in the city last
week, as we have called before, and
feasted our eyes on his immense
stock of everything rich and rare
in the Holiday gift dictionary.
There were Photograph Albums
of every quality, size and price
silk, plush and other rich and an
tique styles, cabinet size, for $3.50,
same as sold last year at $3.50 and
$500.
And Autograph Albums-why
the extensive showcases wouldn't
hold samples of the almost count
less sizes and styles.
And Holiday Cards, fringed,
plain and in every conceivable
form of ideal beauty, and ranging
in price from a few cents up to
$500. See notice in another col
umn.
But we can't tarry to particular
ize in reference to his particularly
large stock of Bibles, from pocket
to the largest size; satchels, purses,
pocket books, paper and fine sta
tionery, toys and everything that
Christmas could suggest to lover or
sweetheart, to doting parent or
anxious, longing child.
Many Of the FREEMAN readers
will be in the city before the glad
holidays come on: go directly to Mr.
Heiskell's, % Twelfth street, and
say We unto him: "THE FREEMAN

AROUND THE TRIANGLE.
Editorial Correspondence.

Leaving Parkersburg at 2 40 in
the morning, we rode and froze and
smothered our way to Grafton,
packed in a coach full of Bohemian
care There were big Bohemians
and little Bohemians, all the way
down to the pretty black-haired,
chubby baby Bohemians, and what
with the Bohemian smoke and
Inuch-breathed bad air within,
and chilly air without that shot in

but a pleasant ride OF it up this
FIRST SIDE OF THE TRIANGLE, TO
GRAFTON.
Here we stopped a few hours to
chat with old FREEMAN friends and
look up new ones; and in due time
were permitted to go on our way
rejoicing with goodly addition to
our list of yearly subscribers.
Among the many pleasant chats
ave enjoyed during our short stay,
I'VE mention our call upoE Mis-.

mick, attorney; Mr.. McGraw, pros
cutting attorney; and the nearly
elected, called but not chosen,
Hon. John w. Mason, who came
within s points of going to Con-
gross.
After spending an hour in Mr..
Mason's office and enjoying his most
genial and affable presence, we
Thought after all it was not necessa-
rily SO bad a thing to run and not
win. Surely the poet had another
in his mind than Mr. Mason, when
he extracted misery out of disap-
pointments and wove it into such
remorseful lines as, "Thou art so
-near and yet so far the "saddest
words, 1t might have been," &c.

E, Harper at his pleasant home,
and nolens volens, pressed him into

AMONG OUR EXCHANGES,
Their Notions and Ours

The FREEMAN this week, saws i
itself, italics and all: "a
Why dear good neighbor a
FREEMAN was born of political 'ne
cesssty, it was solemnly and serion ns'
ly christeaed a political iour rai
and sent forth on a politacomiss;"lar
specially commissioned for sna
cific and intensely practical and y
ttical aoork.-SentineI. Pr
And why didn't the Seotinel mr..
fix the above with the little intard
ed fling of its own with which ON,
remark appeared, in explanatio,
and reply, SO that its readers mich
understand? And, moreover, Ia,
the Sentinel any objections to what
the FREEMAN "says of itself?n nj
SO, let's have 'em.
The FREEMAN added in Gomez
ton with the above that "riob
voting and the enacting and en-.
forcing of righteous laws" was DO
litical business, and to that sort II
business the energies of the FREE.
MAN had been and would continuA
to be devoted.
Col. B. F. Byrne, the new Senator
from the Charleston District, was
in the city last Saturday. On the
question of the amendment, COL
Byrne thinks there will be no doubt
but that it will be submitted to the
people by the next Legislature
FREEMAN.
Yes, we hope the Legislature
will promptly pass upon this
question, and let it be voted upon
at special election next Spring.
Let the question be settled, and
the Parkersburg FREEMAN will
have to give some other excuse for
supporting Republicans for office.
- w 6SuOIl D6luOCIuI.
Yes, Bro. Democrat, let the Dem
ocrats do right, and behave them
selves, and the FREEMAN will be
found as docile and lovely towards
them as Mary's little lamb, and if
the Republicans don't do the same
it will be up and butting them like
the very old - sheep.
But then the Amendment can't
be submitted at a special election,
as we are advised. The constitu,
ton requires that it shall be at a
general election.
Now that Golf is elected to Con-
gress on a temperance issue, that
revenue law which allows men 10
retail the ardent in this county IN
defiance of our county court, will
surely be repealed Wayne Aduo-
cate.
There is certainly no greater
outrage on the part of the Govern
ment than that committed in tax
ing revenue from a traffic so hurttul
and inimmical to the peace and safe
ty of the people that the county
and State prohibits it, and surely
a law authorizing the Government
to do so ought to be repealed.
But let the Advocate, and al
other journals insist that the coun
ty court may not be defed by thesf
lawless traffickers. An united Pres
can do much to stop the traffic anc
cut off the Governments bloo(
money.
