for the whole people. The wlsolt
people contribute to it's support. Its
doors are open 10 every young man
who is seeking FIRST class education
without regard TO his religious tenets
or deDominational or political pre-
objections. Neither will he NEE. with
any bias or ground Of ofense within
the institution on account of his
opinions. II is one Of the best equip
ped institutions in the country. 1t
is literally endowed and backed by
the support of the State. 1t offers a
young man q better education for
less money and less risk to his health
and morals than almost any other in
stitution in the country. 1t is des-
tined to take rank in the future with
the very best institutions in the
country. 1t is destined to grow in
the esteem and affection Of the people
Of this State until it becomes the
mostsbeloved and valued of all our
State institutions. To young man
who expects to live in West Virginia
diploma from the State University
will after a while become a pass
port to almost any position tol which
he may aspire.
Now, why cannot the Methodists
Of West Virginia educate their sons
at the West Virginia University?
Why are many of the ministers Of
the NJ. E. Church engaged in efforts to
curtail its patronage and in inducing
Methodist parents to send their sons
and their money outside the State to
institutions of even inferior grade and
advantages?
Methodist college, so called
unless it be a theological school, is
of no special advantage to Metho-
dist boy. Methodist colleges" do
not make Methodists any more than
other colleges where there are proper
moral and religious observances.
Methodist boys are made Methodists
at home, if they are made at all. A
Methodist college" in West Virginia,
If established, would propably have
an exclusively Methodist faculty, who
would teach Latin, Greek, Mathe-
matics and other branches, just the
same rs they do in other institutions,
and nothing more. They would be
very careful not to make sectarian
ideas and teachings 50 prominent as
to drive away patronage that might
be draw from other classes. This is
the rule in all "Methodist colleges"
and other UNCONVENTIONAL institu-
tions which arc not distinctively the
illogical.
There is no valid reason why any
Methodist boy should not maintain
his Methodism and rs well acquire
a thourough education in the West
Virginia University us in "Metho-
dist college" There is no valid rea-
son, in the present status Of affairs
in West Virginia, why the $4,000
Methodists in this State should not
he represented by two or three huns
dred students in the University. III
the Methodist church expects to draw
to itself-if it expects to grow in
numbers and influence in this State,
the young men of the State must be
educated and must be educated at
home. When the church becomes
too bigoted and exclusive to pat
ronizc it's own State institutions it
must expect to find public sentiment
taking on reciprocal disposition
toward it. II the Methodist church
would have friends in West Virginia
il must show itself friendly to West
Virginia institutions.

IhE SCOTT LAW.
A speech ON the Law by the Au


Extract of speech OF Dr. James Scott Of Warren, de-
liyered at Spring Valley, Greene County, Monday
evening, August 20
Since 1881, the time of the adoption Of our
present Constitution, we have had virtually
free trade In intoxicating liquors in Ohio, and
the real and personal property of the State has
been taxed to pay the fiddler, In this respect
our State has stood alone among the other
States, and, indeed, among all countries in the
civilized world. Many laws were passed by our
Legislature with severe penalties, providing
against the evils resulting from the traffic, but
they were either disregarded or soon repealed
The Scott Law was passed 10 meet this emer-
gency. 1t is simple In its provisions, easy, Ger
tain and effective in its execution, and, think
acquiesced In by most OF the good people OF the
State.
In word, IL provides against the evils re-
sulting from the traffic in intoxicating liquors.
provides revenue TO meet the expenses imposed
on the body polite by the trafhc. and gives
local option relating to the sale OF intoxicants
TO the municipalities OF the State Our Gov
ernmcnt is a government Of the people, where
majorities rule, and who will insist that ma
jorities should govern in local as well as State
and National affairs
There have been some objections to the re-
| peal Of Section 60al of the Revised Statutes,
which forbids the sale OF Intoxicating liquors
| to be drank on the premises where sold.
This section was dead letter ON the statute
books, or nearly 80. Liquors were drank as
| freely on the premises where sold as il no such
statute had an existence, and IL was very rare
that saoon.keeper was arrested for Its viola
tion, and in many OF these cases nolle wa;
entered, or they were acquitted on trial.
| In 1882 the fines collected on account Of sell
ing liquors 10 be drank on the premises where
sold were less than 5000 in the State, whil,
the expenses OF the prosecutions cost the tax
| PAYERS six times that amount. Many OF Ties,
prosecutions were the result OF spite or 70
venge of persons who were refused liquol
when they ought not 70 have had IT, The Goot

rERsoNAL VIEWS.
Perhaps II is best for me 10 state my views Of
| the wool question. When reduction of taxes
became necessary was prepared to see mod
| crate reduction on the duty on wool as well as
on wooden goods. When the report of the
Tariff Commission proposed repeating the nd
yalorem duty on wool and leaving only the
specific duty, acqulesced, for noticed that u
ratablc reduction had been proposed on
wooden goods ] feel bound TO say that neither
Mr. Delano or Mr. Sprague, or any wool grower
OF Ohio at that time asked me 10 resist this re
duction, but only asked for minor changes OF
classification, which were made. Subsequently
Mr.. j. j.. Hayes, the President of the Tariff
Commission, and who had made the report tc
Congress, appeared as the agent OF the manu-
factures with new schedule of the duties on
the manufactures OF wool, greatly changing th'
rates and classification proposed by the Commis
sion. This j thought was wrong 10 the wool
growers, but believing that some OF the changes
were right In principle, 1 acqniesed In them
II expecting corresponding increase Of the dut!
J on wool. This could not be proposed until

JUDGE JERE BIAK died on Sunday
last. At first it was not believed that
his sickness was dangerous and every
one looked for his recovery. But his
condition grew worse and it became ap-
parent that busy, brilliant, upright life
had reached its close. Judge Black was
Attorney General under Buchanan, and
when secession became fact the ablest
statesman in the cabinet became Secre-
tary of State.
Judge Black was man of the greatest
genius, of the most earnest views and
deepest convictions. His conscience al
ways guided his actions and gave energy
and honesty to all his acts. He had no
superior as jurist and his excellent
Judgment, broad scholarship and deep
stuy of the law were fortified by such
command of language, energy of express
sion and beauty of diction as are rarely
united in one man.
His detractors find material for criti-
cism in his failure to advocate heroic
treatment of the rebellion in its incipien-
CIV. But it is a question whether the
precedent established, of disregarding the
constitution when its provisions prohibit
some high handed measure designed to
continue in power the party which is
administering the affairs of government,
is not as deplorable an evil as the dis
memberment of the union. Black was
strict constructionist and he proposed to
do things in conformity with the consti-
tuition. But new ideas prevail now, and
the constitution may be set aside to Sc
cure party advantage as readily as to
secure the public good. But while some
were willing to question the wisdom of
Judge Blacks course, there are none
who doubted his honesty or his patriot
ism. He goes into history as one of the
intelligent giants of the country, and
statesman who always acted for what he
thought was the best.

WITHIN the past few years there has
been large increase in the number of
government pensioners. At present the
surviving friends of almost any soldier
who served in the late war find but little
difficulty in going through the necessary
formalities for obtaining government aid.
The pension system is in itself a good
one, but too many INSCRIPTIONS persons
are taking advantage of the liberality OF
the government, and aid is being every
day bestowed on undeserving parties.
Were the law in the matter so changed
as to allow all surviving physically weak
veterans a moderate pension during life
time, which might be drawn by their
respective families after death, there
would be less crooked" work going on,
and deserving men would stand chance
of being benefited.

Poor Courtney. Fortune seems to
have special aversion for him, and
whenever anything good is expected of
him, he is fated to give general disap-
pointment. At Watkins when it was ex-
pected he was going to push Hanlan
closely, he failed on the preliminary heat
and so could not enter the final contest.
No one will believe the cause assigned
by himself for his failure,-h being
sand bagged the night before the race.
Notwithstanding his repeated failures
there are many who still believe he has
it in him to push the champion, If Fate
would only give him show.

ALTHOUGH Jay Gould lbs managed to
whip the operators, it has been at quite
q cost to himself, so far as the Western
Union is concerned. 1t is not the loss
sustained during the strike, but the gen.
oral diversion of business to such rival
lines as may be induced to start up on
account of the hostile feeling with which
the Western Union is now regarded
There is the heartiest kind of encourage.
ment for rival lines, willingness tc pat
ronize them, and disposition to over
look any slight deficiency of service, that
time may remedy. The strike as prov
ed bad thing for corporations generally,
although the laborers We're beaten. It
will introduce legislation that will limit
their power, and the people will feel that
concentration of power through concen-
tration of capital is dangerous.

delegates and their sympathizers, (among

strikers might return to their work.
The committee did not represent the

The conference was very brief, the pres
