Rebel Riel.

MONTREAL. August 4.-The fate of
Riel was the leading topic OF conserva-
ton yesterday. Many French-Cana-
dams express the opinion that his
condemnation was preconcerted affair
and that the judge was not impartial in
his rulings. Some Of the more rahld
declare that the government dare not
bring Riel to the scaffold. They also
say that petitions will be signed asking
for Riel's pardon on the ground that
the rebellion was justifable. Subscrip-
ton lists are being rapidly filed to
secure funds to enable Riel TO make the
immediate appeal.

France and Germany.

BERLIN, July 4.-The North German
Gazette, referring to the advices of the
Paris Temps that French cavalry on the
frontier will be reinforced, calls it a
Chauvinistic agitation. The Gazette
fears that France is only awaiting an
honorable chance to attack Germany
single handed or with allies. Everyone
abroad, it says, is aware that Germany
has no intention of attacking her
neighbors. The desire of Frenchmen
for revenge offers every politician in
France means of swaying his country
men. France no more values the
friendship of Germany to-day than she
has during the past 200 years.

The F., M. & p. Company is
Not a Cyclone.

The work of laying track on our
railroad is progressing very slowly.
In fact, this part of the work has
been entirely suspended. The
rails were obtained in such small
quantities that it was improbable
for the contractor to attempt to
furnish employment for his men,
and all work was therefore suspen-
ded for two weeks.
At the expiration Of this period
it is expected that there will be
enough rails accessible to enable
the track layers to go forward and
complete the road without further
interruption on this account.
We must confess TO much disap-
pointment and chagrin at the slow
pace with which the authorities OF
the F., M. & P. have been con-
Quoting the work during the past
few months. Our people had been
led to accept the positive assurance
that the road would be finished in
time for our centennial celebration.
That did not seem like an unreason-
able promise. 1t was certainly
within the bounds of practical en-
deavor to have completed the
track-laying in three months from
the time it was begun.
But the trouble is that the en-
deavor has not been made. Ever
since the retirement of Mr.. Glenn
ments from the B. & O., our road
has had but little of the motive
power behind it that springs from
a will to do and a relish in the do
ing. Everything has languished.
The enterprise has had no life in it.
There has been no positive pulling
back, and yet there has been the
lack Of any pushing forward. If
Mr.. Clemments had remained at
the head of the road, the cars
would have been running to Nor
gantown at least three months
ago.
We believe that the officials who
have immediate charge of the
work are anxious to have it go for
ward in a business-like way, but
they have not the power to so reg
ulate the work. The only thing
upon which we can rely for its
completion this winter are the con-
ditions which make it compulsory
on the B. & o. to do so. They
must either finish it or suffer great
loss. The ballast is spread over
the entire length of the road, and
this would be swallowed up and
wasted in slips and other effects of
the freezing. 1t would, in fact, be
almost throwing away the whole
heavy cost Of ballasting the road to
leave it unfinished, and without SUI
perintendance during the winter.
The company will not do this
they can't afford it-and this is our
only positive reliance that they
will complete the road early in the
winter.

Monongalia County.

The financial condition of our
county is just as good and just as
solid as at any time in its history.
The people of West Virginia, as
a State, have probably felt the
stringency of the past few months
as much as any other part of the
country, and more than they usu-
ally feel the fluctuations in fnanci-
al matters. Our prosperity is not
SO dependent upon the condition
of the money market, or the stock
market, or the caprices of the COM
mercial world as other States
which are more dependent upon
the markets of the world.
In the interior counties of West
Virginia the crops have been
short in the last two years. There
was not enough food last winter to
supply the live stock in many To-
calities. Many cattle died or were
sold at sacrifice. These success
sive failures at home, taken in con-
nection with the dearth of business
all over the country, has borne
heavily on West Virginia.
But old Monongalia holds her
own without any struggle or evil
dence of distress whatever. Our
green valley brought forth about
the usual amount of grain and
grass. Instead of selling our cattle
at sacrifice, we have been going
abroad and buying and bringing
more cattle into the county. We
seldom have a more abundant year
than this, all things considered.
While our people are conserva-
tive in business-they do not
branch out much, and are slow to
take hold Of enterprises, and are
called a little poky-yet they are
in small way, thrifty and econom-
ical. Our farmers are we'll fixed,
industrious and managing. They
all have little laid by for wet
day or a dry day. They can east
ly tide over a short crop or a fail
ure of all the crops. But the latter
has seldom been experienced in
this county. Our land is produc-
tive and drouth sufficient to de-
stroy any crop is one of the rare
happenings in this climate.
In short, old ''Mongahail' is
just about as abundant and pros
porous a county as is found in the
State, and our people just about as
independent and happy.
