conversationalist, and with 4 face

does not shrink from possible mis-

does not employ words to conceal
ideas, but he talks freely and point

personnel of his Cabinet. for the
good reason that he has made no

weeks to come; nor does he declare

relating to the public administration

him while at his gubernatorial desk

about to assume the gravest respon

to graver duties, whether citizen,
Sheriff, Mayor, Governor or Presi-

Pay Your Debts.


"Owe no man anything is an in
junction which is as important in
business point of view as it is sound
in morals. There is large class of
debtors who are amply able to pay
all that is against them, but who, for
various reasons, do not discharge
their obligations, preferring to keep
their money lying in bank, or invested
in some security that will bring them
a return in the way of interest. To
say nothing of the essential dishon
esty of such conduct, it is had policy
from business standpoint.
There can be no better investment
than the liquidation of debt, even
| if it has to be made at little sacri
flee. If A happens to owe one thous
and dollars, to half dozen different
creditors, and keeps the money in
his pocket instead of promptly set
Ting with each of them, he deprives
them, to the extent of his obligation,
of the opportunity to settle with those
to whom they are indebted, and in
this way the short sightedness or
selfishness of one man may keep
scores of persons waiting for weeks
and even months for their honest
dues.
There is a much broader view to
be taken of this question than that
which concerns the rights of indi-
viduals. If every one who is in debt
and able to pay would square off
within the next ten days, there would
be such vast sums of money thrown
into circulation as would give fresh
impetus to business in all depart
ments. 1t would, in word, be an
earnest of that "restoration of conf
dence" without which there can be
no revival in trade which will be
healthy and permanent. Those who
wish to start business boom, there
fore, should liquidate at once. They
should settle, not only with the
butcher, the baker and the grocer,
but with those to whom they are &C
customed to look for long indulgence.
They should even pay the doctor and
the printer.
1t is characteristic of many per-
sons in times like the present to
hold on to every dollar they can get.
They seem to act under the selfish
impulse that prompts to a disregard
of the rights and interests Of Others
in case of threatened danger. If the
ship goes down they want more than
their share of life preservers. 1fthere
is to be financial collapse they want
to hold little more than their own
Such a course is calculated to bring
about the very calamity they wish te
avoid. 1t is entirely safe to wipe out
Indebtedness at the present time
The past year has been one of ex
IRENE caution and conservativeness
and the ability to pay is, perhaps
more general and more ample than i
has been at any time since the panic
of 1878. To one an all, then-an(

The death of Col. w. H. Hogeman
at his home in Charleston, on the 9th
inst, will both astonish and pain his
admirers and friends all over the
State. His illness had been of but a
few days duration and scarcely any
one outside of his family knew any
thing of it. The deceased had scarce
ly attained his full prime and vigor,
not being over fortytwo OF three
years of age. But in that time he
had secured the choicest honors OF
his profession and in its foremost
ranks. His strong argumentative
qualities at the bar, combined with
his complete knowledge of law and
indomitable energy, made him foe
whose steel was always feared by his
antagonist. In proof of Col. HoGE
MANS high legal attachments, he had,
for number of years, held the re-
sponsible position of chief counsel tor
the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad
Company.
The deceased came to Charleston
from New York at the close OF the
civil war; On his arrival he began
teaching school, and when his occu-
patton permitted, he zealously stud
led law under the guidance OF Judge
Summers.
The deceased leaves family OF
several children and widow, whose
maiden name was Miss Annestein
Ruffner, a daughter of an old and
respected family OF the Kanawha
Valley.
The State has lost valuable citi-
zen, and the bar an able jurist, in
