The belief is rapidly growing
among the people of West Virginia
that Prohibition is the only sure
method of extirpsting the drink
traffic. Four years from now there
may be thousands of men in the
State willing to vote the National
cold water ticket. The Democrats
in the Legislature will be simply
acting the part of wisdom by bear
ing this point in mind when the

Mrs. Grants Condition.

MOUNT McGREGoR, July 27.-The
report that General Grants widow is
so dangerously i'll that she will be I'M
able TO accompany the remains on
the day Of removal is unduly alarm
ing. 1t is the present purpose of Mrs.
Grant to accompany the remains of
her husband to New York and the
family are not aware OF any condi-
tons nor of any indications that
should prevent the widow from doing
so.
Mrs. Grant had not until the last
days become convinced that no re-
markable cure was to be effected in
the Generals case, as she had believed
and when his death occurred the effect
of disappointed hope, combined with
the natural shock of her bereavement
produced reaction from which she
has not yet recovered so as to enable
her to mingle as freely with the fam
lily as before the Generals demise
She is not confined to her bed, but
on the contrary, she felt Yesterday
that she would like to descend to the
cottage parlor and view the Generals
remains. From this purpose, how
ever, Mrs. Grant was dissuaded by
those who felt that the experience
would further trouble and depres
her.
This afternoon the little engine Of
the mountain toiled up to the SUNNI
with four heavily-laden coaches
Among the passengers was a Catho
lie clergyman, who was accorded tn
privilege of viewing General Grant
remains.

lin Riverside Park.

There is now little doubt that Riv-
erside Park will be chosen by the fam
lily as the burial place OF General
Grant. The abandonment OF Cen
trail Park will be regarded as q wise
and fortunate decision. There are OBJ
vious reasons which render it less de-
sirabie and appropriate for tomb
than Riverside Park. The latter az
fords uot only the best site in the city
but one of the most imposing positions
on the continent for grand national
monument Its lofty plateau oyer
looks the Hudson Valley and COM
mands other magnificent views, and
while it has the advantage OF conven-
lent access it is sufficiently removed
from the life and ceaseless activity OF
the metropolis to have the desirable
requisites of quiet and seclusion. Its
selection will furthermore enable the
city authorities, by changing the
name of Riverside Park to Grant
Park, to contribute to the memory Of
the illustrious dead an honor that
could not be bestowed in the case Of
