vision undisposed of. The House
tariff bill never had chance Of pas
sing, and the reductions made in the
Senate in the duties on iron and steel,
combined the representatives Of that
all-powerful industry against the bill,
so that unless in the improbable event
of the conference committee making
up a new bill to suit, no tariff legisla-
ton will mark the record of this Con-
gress. The whole matter has bsea
relegated to conference committee,
which will wrsst,e with it for the bal
ance Of the tsrm.
There are some rumors of an ex-
ira session being called in case no
tariff bill is passed, but it seems the
idea has its foundation on the fact
that the PIssldsnt considers legisla-
ton and revision on this subject Of
extraordinary Importance, and necsa-
sity to the business intsreIts Of the
country at large inssmuch as no per-
mansnt prosperity can attach without
change in existing incougruous laws
on the subject. David Davis is to

this country pronounced it as good as
any of the Bediordsr springs and equal.
if not superior, to the sour springs in
Germany.
Then, some years ago the pros
p.cts" to End oil were so strong that
an attempt was made close to our
town by boring to the depth of Il 200
feet. Though this was 9 failure as
far as the oil was concerned, it did
not prove after all that oil cannot be
found near Wellersburg. 1t only
proved that it could not be found at
that place and depth Of boring. Sure
ly it was not an entire failure. In
boring they struck . nsver-failing
stream of strong mineral water. As
far as tested yet it is strongly imprsg-
mated with medicinal properties. The
location around it is very attractive,
and it only needs . 6rst-class board

want of railroad, yet two and-a-

Mt. Savage road at Bsrrelvills.
We have seen other places too,
where they were in want of a railroad
and some men thought it would ray
to build one, and we think it would
also pay to build the one necessary
to gain access to the Wsllersburg coal

not to say msRnanimity, toward these

more guilty of sslf.defsncs than the
average Of those who have been able
to regain work?
Is it not An opportuns period also
for our capitalists, having taught Ia
Dor that it cannot sxtort employment,
and that all the favors are on their
side to bsstow, to inquire whether,
after all, there is not something desi-
rabls Of attainment in tho way Of the
friendship Of the community under
whose eyis their money is invested ?
II 40, how are they to obtain and pre-
serve that favor by prescribing q part
Of the community and putting the 9TH
sr portions just inside the pale Of rec.
ognition?
Perhaps they imagine they can
safely do this with people whose CO.
operation. voluntary or involuntary,
they cannot dispense with, but they
are mistaken. Times and demands
change; new issues and fresh objects
Of achievement are constantly coming
to the front. Capital, confssssdly po-
tsntial, can work miracles of improve
ment, but without the favor of the
people who surround it's operations it
is shorn of half its magic. Stripped
of the loyalty and patronage of labor,
30 far at least as this region is con-
cerned. it would be "sitting to day

In that event, can capital continue
consistently and safely policy which
unfairly regards the working and
trading elements OF this region as q
Common enemy ?"
No, sirs; throw down the bers; let
all come in and share, not your boun-
ty, but the legitimate fruits of labor
and trade. Make friends of your en-
emies fence your properties and in
terests with that security which the
loyalty of popular friendship bounds,
