and further. that if the Wheeling and

Ohio river then the road which he rep
resents will be pushed on in this direc-
ton to a connection with it. Mr..

completion of the Wheeling and Lake

cannot afford to not finish it to this
city, as this end will furnish by far the
most valuable business il will have.

TIE ANrIPODAL REPCBLICAN
TARIFF OF WEST VIRGINIA

When Gen. Corr was making his
canvass as the Republican candidate
for Congress in the First district he
claimed to represent the Simon pure
Republican doctrine on the tariff.
He announced that he was for 'prO.
tective tariff
He was for high protective tariff"
He was for tariff, not for revenue
only, but for manufacturers only.
He was not to be out-tariffed by any
tariff that ever was tariff, however
high.
He spent q lwhhle evening and ex-
hausted himself in demonstrating dur
ing a three or four hours speech, more
or less, in front OF the Capitol in this
city, that this high-headed, Nightly
ing, highest-that-ever-was tariff, was
the Republican tariff, aud the tariff adj
vocated and maintained by the Repub-
ican party of West Virginia.
Now comes Judge Brown, of Kama
who, who is also a candidate for Con-
gress.
Judge BROWN is the Republican can
didate from the Third district.
Judge BROWN is running on the Re-
publican platform.
Was nominated by the Republican
convention.
Is being eulogized all over the State
as model Republican.
But Judge Brown is not one of your
high-hesded high-Hyingtariff men.
On the contrary, Judge BRowN took
occasion, in his place in the Legislature
last winter, to denounce and renounce
this high-proteetioa-tariff.fOr

NATIONAL FINANCES.

A Possibility that the Debt VIII be Re
duced 500 100000 this Year.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.-It is impossi-
BILE to make an exact estimate as to what
the financial operations of the Treasury
will be for the rest of the fiscal year. 1t
all depends upon the receipts from Gus
toms and internal revenue. and upon the
demand made upon the Treasury in the
payment of pensions. The customs re-
ceipts have kept up very well during the
summer under the new tariff act, but they
always fall off after the last months of
that season.
Internal Revenue Commissioner Evans
has calculated that there will be falling
off of $40,0O0,000 this year in the internal
revenue as compared with the wealth de.
rived from that source during the last
fiscal year. Already there have been paid
during this fiscal year $25,00O,000 on ac-
count of pensions. Commissioner Dudley
estimates that he will want $4,000, 900
more by November. He cannot estimate
what it will require for November, but it
will probably be near $40, 900. These
figures preclude another bond call at an
early date. There will be more bond calls
during the fiscal year. One NAV be made
before the $lj,000,000 call just issued ma
lures, which will be December 1 next.
There will be no more large bond calls,
however.
The nearest estimate that can be made
fixes the further amount of bonds to be
redeemed during the fiscal year at about
$4,000, 600. This would make the total
amount of debt retired during that period
about 100000, 900. as SAG. 200. 900 have al
ready been called in since July Both last.

Rules for Riding.

In mounting, face the near side of the

on the fence, say ''whOa" two or three
times. and jump over the horse's ears

and you Will have plenty of time to adjust
yourself while the horse is running away .
Another method of mounting, largely
practiced by young gentlemen from the
city, is to balance yourself ON one
foot on the fence, and point the
other leg at the horse, in the GEN
eral direction of the saddle, say
ing ''whOa" all the time. The horse, Eaf-
ter this gesture has been repeated few
times. backs away, pulls the alleged
rider of the fence. and walks Ip and
down the lane with him at a rapid gallon.
This gives the rider, in about ten minutes
all the exercise he wants for a week. If
by some miracle you manage to get into
the saddle, hold on with both hands and
say "whOa." The faster the horse goes
the tighter you must hold on, and the
louder you must ''hOller." IL YOU

LETTERS FOR TWO GEMS.
The Department Unable to Supply the
Demand for the New Stau,nS

The Department Unable to Supply the
Demand for the New Stamps.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.-The requisi-
tiOns upon the Post Office Department by
the Postmaster for the new two cent
stamps are so large that the contractors
are unable to supply the demand, and the
department consequently is reducing the
amounts called for in the acquisitions.
The contractors at present are able to
furnish 100000 stamps daily, but this is
much less than the number demanded.
During the early part of the pres
ent month the department distributed
large numbers of the old two
cent stamps among the smaller
post offices, yet it is believed that with
the utmost eXertiOns of the department,
fully one-third of the post offices of the
country will not have an adequate supply
of stamps upon the date when the law
providing for the new letter rate goes into
operation. The department officials do
not fear any serious Instructions of the
business on that account, however, as the
offices lacking supplies will be of the
smallest grade, where the Postmasters,
from ignorance of the law, or neglect.
have failed to farward their requistiOns
in season.
