Nicholas Chronicle
We are happy to note that the
Journal is behaving better of late.
A liquor law is badly wanted in
and about West Union by our
peace-abiding citizens. Within
one mile circuit of town, eight
whisky ranches are harbored, ali
of which are doing an undisturbed
and thriving business. We learn
of free hight recently at one Of
the bars west of town, in which
three men were seriously injured

What we nee is State law To
stop the murderous business. Let

submitted, and let US see what
THE PEOPLE WANT.
Prohibition cannot get through
in West Virginia without the Re.
publican party's help. This it
cannot get. The villainy of the
managers Was too great, and Re.

As the Messenger is talking Of
Prohibition in West Virginia, will
it be kind enough to point out the
"villainy of the managers" in this
State, whereby Republicans were
deceived? The parties may both
refuse their help, as they have
done, but Republicans and Demo.

serve the people, in spite of party.

is, that to stop the business Of the
saloons is only to throw it into the
drug-stores. This is an old and
played-out pretext. Ifthere is any
thing in the drugstore objection,
now comes it that we never hear
of any rows at drug stores such as
we do at saloons p Wetls6,srg Her.

Tile New York World Conveys a
Useful Hint 70 the Passe
-El0cntiOnist.

Miss Julia Thomas, who spent some
time in Salt Lake last year, and whose
talents. were variously regarded by the
public, has been handled IN the follow
ing manner by the Ae~ York World:
Miss Julia Thomas now proposes to
instruct women in the proper way to
become physically beautiful She be-
gan her work yesterday at Manhattan
HALL, where she amused a mixed au-
dience for an hour. Miss Thomas
among other rash things set herself up
a. i model of physical beauty in some
respects. and. called attention to her
waist, which she proudly said was
twenty-seven. inches in circumference.
She also announces that child to be
healthy must be Tree from nicotine and
alcohol. There is but one remark TO
make ~ Miss Thomas. and it is that =
woman. with waist twenty-Seyen in
ches round ought to be producing
healthy children and not going round
the country talking about them.

wildering plethora of egotistical rhetoric
on New Years day from motives of
curiosity, if nothing else. 1t will be
interesting to notice the varied gifts
possessed by the Tribune advertisers
who take up the pen to indulge in lit

are inYeigied into this silly way of

WE FANCY we can see the kind of
notice that venerable bloke-G. NJ. PIERCE
wrote of himself for the Tribune
readers, deiectation (Peirce may not or
NAV have had panegyric on himself
inserted on New Years day-at any
rate the illustration will suffice) il
the January 1st issue; he was paying
10 per cent. per month, his bills were
being protested. the thunder was crash
ing all about him, but his business as
seen in the New Years TribUae, was =
marvel of prosperity and progress
Since the opening of Mr.. Peiree's pop
ular Book Store. his widest anticipa-
ti01s have been more than realized :
Mr.. PIERCE has now firmly established
his business Apon sound financial
basis. and Peirce's' is become one OF
the household words Of the western
inland city" This is about the usual
stvle of gush they write about them
selves: a short time alter,
Mr.: Peirce's congregation was
bowling for his scalp, and his creditors
received pen wiper on the dollar ior
their claims. How many such lnstan-
ces there have been We are not aware,
but whether they are many or few, the
principle applies just the same.
