fiction can possess, while they wholly free from
what is pernicious or vulgarly sensational. The
humorous stories and pictures are full of innocent
fun, and the papers on natural history aud science

value. Illustrated papers on athletic sports
games, and pastimes give full information on these
subjects. There is nothing cheap about it but it;
price.

ARE WE TO HAVE ANY MAIL SER
vIoE-PREsENT CONTRACTS Our AND
NO ARRANGEMENTS MADE.-For some
time past our people have been dis
cussing the probabilities as to wheth-
er any mail matter will leave or be
brought to this place after Tuesday
next. On that day the contracts of
both Squire Hayes, on the Fairmont
route, and Mr.. Isaac Franks ON the
Fairchance route expire. The
young men who took Mr.. Franks
route have "backed out" and say
they can't and won't do the work.
The new contract is somewhat diff
ferent from the old one, and will be
difficult to fulfill 1t can not be done
at the contract price, and it may not
be arranged satisfactorily for a long
time. The Fairmont route is in the
hands Of some contractor who lives
in distant State, and who, so far as
we can learn, has made no arrange
ment to have the service performed.
At present there seems to be but one
way out of the trouble, and that is
for Mr.. Dering to hire some one to
do the work until the matter is set
tied by the p. o. Department. We
believe under the law he would only
be authorized to pay the contract
price, and it is doubtful whether it
can be done for the money. A great
amount of "cussin" has been done
concerning the mail for years, and
now the matter will bear dis-cussin'.
In a few months the mail to and from
Morgantown will be carried by rail,
but that still leaves several very i'm
portant offices in the county unpro-
vided for. We shall see what we
shall see.

| NOT GUILTY WAS THE VERDICT IN
THE PERKINS TRnBLE CAsE-TBI
PRISONERS RELEAsED.-Last Wed
nesday evening, the murder case
which had for some days been com
handing considerable interest, was
submitted to the jury. On Thurs
day morning the verdict was brought
in, ''not guilty." A decision of this
kind was not expected by the people
neither does it appear that it was
expected on the part Of the counsel
for the defense, as they, when the
trial was about half complete, offer.
ed to compromise by allowing the
prisoner ten years in the Peniten
tiary. This proposed compromise
was refused by the counsel for the
State, because they thought the pris-
oner merited greater punishment.
The result of the trial is the source
of no little dissatisfaction among
many people, and in their minds it is
only another formidable argument
against the jury system. But the pub
lie must not censure too severely the
opinion of men on a subject, who
have had ample opportunity to judge,
while they themselves-the people
deduce their conclusions from second
and third hand premises, and as a
consequence are greatly at variance
with the truth. The chances being
that your premises are wrong, if you
are correct reasoner, the chances
are that your conclusion is wrong.
Therefore let there be no insinua-
tions hurled against the jury, but
complacently accept the matter as it
is. Besides it was not the province
of the jury to decide whether or not
they suspicioned Perkins as the muir
derer of Alice Harris. but whether
or not the evidence, as exhibited in
the court house, and not on the street
corner, left any doubt in their minds
as to his guilt. The evidence, as adj
duced in the trial, seems to have
left doubt in the mind of the jury
as to the guilt of the prisoner And
the doubt of course turned the bal
ance in his favor. The verdict of
the jury in the case of Perkins lib
Grated Trimble. 1t is easy for one
to imagine how delighted the pris-
oners must have been when permit
ted to leave the dark prison walls
behind them. And if all reports
are true it was still less difficult for
one present at the court room on
this occasion to see joy mingled with
the actions of the newly made free
men. Both the prosecution and de-
Tense were ably conducted; the form
er by w. W. Houston, p H. Keck
and A. G. Davis; the latter by J. M.
Hagans, L. III. B. Staggers and
Frank Cox.
