General I.angue-.

Among the list of distinguished
military heroes the names of General
Languor or DEBILITY do not appear.
Yet, it is well authenticated fact,
that there are times when the pulse
lies low in the bosom and heats fee
bly, in the arteries The spirit of the
individual is sleepy, and the whole
tendency of. The body is toward rest
and decay. At such times and dur
ing such seasons, the system needs
toning up by the use Of some good
and pure tonic which will restore the
organs to the wonted state. Such a
tonic is found in Peruna, which is
acknowledged by all to be the very
thing to put these famous generals
to rout, and to ultimately conquer
them. Read the following testimo-

ELECTION DAY.
Items Taken on the Wing-In
teresting Observations.

Tuesday was to some of the can
didates "of all the year the mad
dest, merriest day." To some cit
was glorious victory, sir" To
some it was a regular Waterloo.
The election at this voting place
passed off very quietly, yet all day
long candidates were working
among the people collected on Court
Square like bees in a field of white
clover. There was no disturbance
of any kind, not even any loud
talking or boisterous argument.
Only one or two men seemed to
have been tempted above what they
were able to bear and were walking
on both sides of the street at the
same time.
-Four hundred, and ninety-two
ballots were cast. At the election
in '82 the vote at this place was
something less, and since that time
change has been made in the
election laws shutting out all voters
except residents of this district.
The election commissioners were
VIM. Moorhead, Geo. w. Semans
and F. K. OKelly.
Several young men cast their
maiden votes.
An unsuspecting "free Ameri-
can was beguiled into promising
to vote for a student for constable
at large"
The ratification question seemed
to be bungling piece of business
and great many voters were afraid
Of it.
A considerable amount of scratch
ing was done.
Two or three members of one
party treated certain weak brother
to some stimulants in order that
they might control his vote for
their candidates. A few minutes
afterward the weak brother got a
ticket of the opposite party, went
to the polls and voted it straight.
The following dialogue took place
between DR.. Lazier and a tractable
voter: DR.. L.-"Say mister, can't
you vote for me today" T. W
II don't know, what are you rum
ming for?' DR.. Ii am can
didate for vacancies" T. V.-"Pll
see about it, maybe l can give you
little lift" E.xeuut omnes.
Several students were busy work
ing for Mr.. Morgan.
Candidates are very fond of every
body on election day.
Tuesday night about IS or 80
small boys of assorted sizes and Of
every color and shape under the
sun collected on Court Square and
began to have a demonstration oil
their own. They sang and followed
till even the cats of that neighbor-
hood became jealous and left the
country. The burden of their song
was Rah for Maxwell and Davis.
LARGE stock of Napkins, Table
Linens and Towels at Chadwick's at

The Independent Movement I'm
National Politics.

The independent voter has come
TO be power in the land. America
is pre- eminently the home and abid
ing place of all manner of freedom.
Free thought, free conscience and a
free press have been our boast since
the days of the New England Puri-
tans. And now we are having an
exhibition of the independent actor
as well as thinker. Not since the
time of Horace Greeley has there
been anything like it in National
politics. Even then it did not reach
such gigantic proportions. Why, it
takes good memory to run over the
list of Presidential candidates, there
are so many in the field. OF course
every candidate has his following.
There is the much nominated Butler
who expects to fool good many peo-
pie into voting for him, and Benja-
min is something of political
prophet. Belva Lock wood, the NOM
inee OF the Woman's Rights party,
has no doubt of coraling a respect
able vote and perhaps of walking into
the White House itself. St. John
has a rood following in certain
sections and is said to be confident
of carrying a State or two. Then
there is the nominee of the "Ameri-
can Drummer's Association" besides
the candidates of the two great
National parties.
Wat does all this mean? Are the
OLD parties breaking up? Is there
about to be disintegration of the
old faith, or does it mean a purfi-
cation?
Besides these new parties which
are springing up like so many mush-
rooms all over the country the amount
of sliding over from one of the great
parties to the other is something re-
markabIe. The Republican party
especially is losing hundreds of it's
magnates and the "fopping" contin-
ues. On the other hand there is here
and there follower of the Demo
cratic faith who has become dis
gruntled and gone over to the enemy.
We ask again, what does it mean?
Men may laugh and say it is only a
trifle, but laugh is no argument.
Men like Henry Ward Beecher. Carl
Schurz and George William Curtis
are not turned about by every east
wind that blows.
1t is common remark that there
will be more scratching" this year
than has ever been known in Ameri-
can political history. 1t is good
sign. The people are thinking. There
is no better evidence of the indie
pendence of American thinkers and
voters than these powerful movements
in National politics.

Returns by Counties.


WHEELING, Oct. Is. - The details
from the counties of West Virginia
are not yet full enough upon which to
make an accurate estimate of the
Democratic majority. We have par
tial returns from number of coun-
ties showing the drift of the vote.
OHIO COUNTY.
The Democrats in this county made
handsome gains. The fullest vote
that has been polled for years. Every
man on the Democratic ticket is
elected by a good, round majority.
Democracy was splendidly organized
and went to the polls. in solid phal-
anx. The result in this county has
created unbounded enthusiasm. If
the State at large does as well, we
will have n handsome majority over
the whole fusion business.
MARSHAL COUNT.
The returns from Marshal county
show a very large vote. The upper
end of the county shows Democratic
gains, Wilson leading Maxwell by
139 to 124 at Benwood. Moundsyille
gives about the usual Republican
majority. The voting is about as
straight in this county as in any
of the State, but the Republican ma
jority will be slightly diminished.
wETZEL COUNTY.
Old Democratic Wetzel stands by
her colors, and will roll up the usual
majority for the whole ticket. So far
as the vote has been counted Wilson
leads Maxwell in about the proper
ton of 100 to 25.
PUTNAM COUNTY.
Returns from few of the districts
indicate very close contest in Put.
nam. There is not difference Of
two votes between Maxwell and Will
son so far as the count has progressed
KANAwHA COUNTY.
The result in this county is still
in doubt. The fusionists carried il
in 1880 by 100 majority. Wilson
will reduce these figures even IL he
does not have majority. The vote
already counted in Charleston is l40O
with Wilson in the lead There was
considerable scratching on tickets
1t is estimated that the Democracy
will have a majority in this district
of between 5000 and 1000.
JEFFERSON COUNTY.
The Democrats have made consid
cradle gains in this county. In the
town Of Charlestown alone, Wilson
has net gain of ia.

Funny.

When you ask a high tariff man
how the high tariff raises wages, he
will tell you that we're it not for the
higher tariff, the cheaper goods of
European manufacture would deluge
us and there would be no sale for
ours unless our workingmen would
consent to work for as little as work
ingmen abroad get.
When you tell him that the high
tariff makes prices too high here, he
tells you that the prices here are
lower than they are there. He will
tell you that a workingman can live
cheaper here than in the old country,
and all because of high tariff.
The funny feature of the business
is that, for the purpose of one part
of this argument of the high tariff
man, the high tariff makes prices
high, and for the purposes of the
other part it makes prices low. Ac-
cording to his showing, the high
tariff is q sort Of double back acting
arrangement which does and undoes
at the same time. Perpetual motion
would be fool of discovery in COM
parison.

AWater.WOrlxs Boom.


railroad within the next twelve
months.
We will be the head of slack water
navigation on the Monongahela river,
probably, within the next twenty
four months.
We ought to become, very soon, a
town of considerable importance and
increasing population.
Suppose we begin to manifest a
little public spirit, by establishing
water-works for the town.
Nothing draws population to a
town so quickly and readily as public
spirit. A dead people will make a
dead town.
We may have railroads and water
navigation, and all the facilities for
transportation and business that a
town could desire, but it will remain
dead town without public spirited
population. The world will discover
this lack of spirit and pass it by.
Nobody will want to bury his capt
tai in it. Nobody will want to sit
down in it and allow the moss to
grow on his back. Nobody will want
to help town that wont help itself.
Its reputation for stupidity and a
slow-going habit will soon 60 abroad
and it's business opportunities will
be proportionally diminished, the
town will get on the down grade, and
it will require more than railroads,
more than the ordinary facilities of
any modern town, to accomplish its
resurrection.
works would not only give
our town better reputation, better
standing, which would draw popula-
ton and business, but they would
be worth far more than their cost in
in the convenience and COM
fort they would bring to every house
hold in Morgantown.
Our water supply is good enough
for drinking and cooking, but there
it's usefulness ends. We must have
saltwater for other purposes, and have
it in large quantities. 1t requires
the constant work of two or three
teams to supply the demand for soft
water during a dry season. The
money expended in this way would
pay the interest on the whole cost of
water works.
Let us have an agitation of this
subject. Let our town show dispo-
sition to branch out.
1t will pay.
1t will pay in the increase of pop
ulation.
1t will pay in the increased comfort
of living.
Let us have a water works boom.
