SAYS the Weston Republican.

Farmers, do You not know that yOu are
paying almost twice rs much for the
school books of your children Is they are
worth, and this iniquitous burden Eas I'M
posed upon you bya Democratic Legisla-
ture? You are compelled to buy GER
tain books Mt q certain price. No dis
count. II is with you to decide on the
2Rd day of November whether or not this
oppression shall continue.
The Republican, mast think the chances
of the =. o. p. are desperate indeed. The
farmer will recOllect that he paid p
to 100 per cent more for books under Re-
publican rule than now.

ANOTHER SECRET CIRCULAR"
THE Republican confidential circular
like perpetual motion seems TO 90 on for
ever. We again have the pleasure OF pc
ruSiny n of those secret circulars dated
Wheeling October II, and signed by W.
J. W. COwDEN, Chairman, and o.. >.
SCoFIELD, Secretary Of the Republican
Congressional Committee.
This interesting document is sent out to
every Republican in the District, who is
warranted not to leak. 1t says The can
yass in the First Congressional District is
approaching an intensity never before
known in the political history OF the Dis
trict." and 1--WE must watch the enemy at
every turn of the wheel and At every point
OF the compass.
The letter then continues:
Every Republican who receives this cir
cular is hereby appointed an active com
mitteeman with full power, on behalf Of
the Congressional COmmitte, TO canvass
for General Golf; to guard the polls with
~yigilant watchers, to labor with fair
minded Democrats and induce them to
throw overheard the free trader and vote
for q mau whom the nation recognizes as
an eloquent champion ola protective tar
III; to work in season and out of season IN
behalf Of 4 noble cause; to get your neigh
bOrs to the polls and see that every Re
publican vote in your precinct Is polled on
election day; to man the polls with eth
Gent workers; TO send riders after every
delinquent Republican who has not voted
by noon on election day; and to perform
every necessary act to bring out a full Re
publican vote.
This lets in the light on some OF the tao
ties to be employed by the Republicans.
1t will be easy to recognize these gentle
men with 4 full power on behalf OF the
Congressional committee" when they come
around to labor with the Democrats if
| Democrats keep their eyes open. They are
ito man the polls with active and efficient
workers" and make every one who comes
tOcast his ballot run the gauntlet
ola gang of these workers" Riders
are to he sent out to scour the country for
voters and to perform every necessary
act to bring out every Republican vote
This last injunction Ito perform every
necessary act to secure u full vote In
eludes a good deal that the committee nc
doubt didn't want to make too public,
From the tenor of of the c%ircularit is eyi
dent that votes are to be gotten for Gen,
COT no matter what U~nderhanded and
questionable means have To be reSorted To-
The duty of the Democrats is plain. rh'
/ Democratic ticket can be elected Demo
Gratis are true to their cOlOrS. The attempts
and schemes Of the Republicans must bC
foiled. Democrats watch the corners anC
work tor all that is out and use every hon.
orable means to deefat the well laid
schemes of the Republicans.

MIR. KENNY SPEECH.

Senator Kenna's speech at the Opera
House last evening was just what the
Democracy of Ohio county expected,a a old
fashioned Democratic feast. Senator
Kenns's position as Chairman of the Ma
tional Democratic Congressional Commit
tee, and his prominence during his
terms of Office in both houses
of Congress give him such q knowledge. of
public affairs that few men in the country
are better fitted for discussing the great
questions ofthe day.
Mr. Kenna handled the g, o. p. without
gloves. The speech was de
hyered with that elOquence that charac-
terizes the Eagle of the Kanawha."
Aud what the Senator said were not
mere idle statements but were substantial
tedCsith such an array of proof that no
candid u~nprejudieed man can help admit
ting them as true.
It was shown that the Republicans have
permitted our navy to become
a thing of the past, how
n public lands have been given away
to railroad moDOpOlies and seized by cattle
barons, how the pension bureau was pros
tituted TO political ends, while the soldiers
OF the country were KEEP out of their pen
pensions. His remarks on the tariff show
how the Republican party has protected
West Virginia by lowering the tariff on
salt lumber, iron and coal, her
chief products, and has given the protect
ion 10 the industries Of other States.
Against these was cOntrasted the policy
ofthe Democratic party. The voters OF
West Virginia may well bear these things
in mind on election day.
Bat the Senator'S speech will appear III
full in the REGISTER this morning, and all
NAV read and re-read, and ponder over the
thoughts and facts it contains, and be bet
ter enable to vote on next election day,
for the best interests OF IA grand little
mountain State.

pletely she failed in the attempt! Her
mouth got into position, but it never
moved after that save to draw
down at The corners and culver.
while she blinked her eyes so
fast that / expect she only caught
oc ceasional glympses of the broad-shoul-
dered man pushing his way SO rapidly
toward her. And then, as lie drew close
and dropped those everlasting portman-
taus, she turned completely round, with
her back toward him, and covered her
face with her bands. And thus she was
when tho strong nan gathered her up
in his arms as if she had been baby,
and held her, sobbing to his breast.
There were enough gaping at them,
heaven knows, and I turned my eyes
awfy for moment, and then saw two
boys in threadbare roundabouts stand
ing near. wiping their eyes and noses on
their little coat sleeves and bursting out
anew at every demonstration on the
part of their mother.
When / looked at the stranger again
he had his hat drawn over his eyes; but
his wife was looking up at him, and il
seemed as if the pent up tears Of those
weary months of waiting were streaming
through her eyelids.

The Yelled Mystery.

Washington Letter in Philadelphia Telegraph
There is one woman in the Treasury
who has attracted much attention on &C.
count of the mystery surrounding her.
She has beon in the department for years
not less than ten-and though she is
marked by everybody, l have never met
anybody who has sccn her face. It is the
talk OF the clerks brought most in con-
tact with her. She is a woman of magnifi-
cent presence, a tall, fine figure, and one
of the most perfect forms have seen.
Her appearance is that ola woman who
might possess remarkable beauty, but
she always has her face enveloped
in thick veil. In the Office or
out, at work or walking through, the
halls, the veil is never removed, and
the efforts of her inquisitive fellow
clerks to peep under it are vain. Many
susceptible young men, struck by her
| fine figure, have quickened their step to
| catch up with her in the halls only to
find her face hid from sight. No one oau
tell whether she is old or young, but she
is probably not Every either" The mo-
tive for concealing her features is moi
known. Whether, like the "Veiled
| Prophet, she seeks to hide vision ol
ugIiness, or whether she has some other
reason, is a mere matter of conjesture
Some say that her face once comported
with the promise Of her form that she
was exqnisitely beautiful was {
victim Of smallpox, which SO disfgure6
her face that she is ashamed to show it

From the Detroit Free Press
When you eointo an American hotel,
you know, a boy takes your baggage at
the door, the clerk embraces you ut the
counter, brushes whisk, and attendants
dance around you till it seems as il the
whole establishment had been eagerly
expecting you for q week.
Now when you go into an English
hotel it is different.
You tug. and twist and shoulder-heaye
ct the dor awhile, until at last you
worry it upon and drag yourself and
your baggage in by painful degrees
against the protest of an inhospitable
spring that has been cunningly con-
triyed somewhere to keep, you
cut. Thea you set down your
things in narrow, private sort
Of an entry with the feeling of
q burgler awaiting an arrest, end wipe.
Of your forehead and look over the
ground. There are no signs, no bells,
no anything. You stamp and cough
ard rattle around for while,. and by
and by the, eommotion wakes up seme-
body in the rear Of the house, who opens
the door and peers through. This is
your opportunity. If yoa, are afable,
and persistent, and plausible, and state

The Lime-Kiln Club.

For son1e time past there has been ill.
feeling between Pike Root Perkins and
the Hon. Justified White. caused by a
dispute over the query: us Life Worth
the Living" As the meeting was ready
to open Brother Gardner called the
pair to the head OF the hall and said:
One reason why some people decide
dat life am not wuth de Iibin' am be-
kase dey. make life q burden to deir-
selves ar very unpleasant to odders.
One real mean man in a community kin
make 500 people doubt if virtue am re-
warded on earth. One canting hypo-
crite in town kin keep SANDER mill
grindin' night an day. One infidel in
county kin cause 5000 well-mesnin'
people to kinder doubt if dar' am a
Hesben or hereafter.
"Bekase you two differ in opinyun
you go at it an help to make life on
pleasant to each odder. It doan' strike
you dat anybody else kin be right, or
dat you may be entirely wrong. Brud-
der Perkins calls Brother White fule
bekase he can't agree with him. Brud-
der White calls Brudder Perkins bigot
bekase he won't accept his opinyuns.
Each has his friends an supporters, an
desc supporters divide off an feel aige
wise toward each odder, am before we
know it do quarrel has involved 200

'ngs; are they all in good repair, warfn
and comfortable for winter, so that
your stock will have nothing to do but
to eat and thrive and enjoy their brief
portions of life? Ii you cannot answer
these questions afiirmatively, you can
spend a few days no more profitably
than in putting every thing in
sshlp-shape about the premises. We
have visited farmers homes in
winter where every thing was
so neat and orderly, SO snug and COM
Portable; where the patient cattle, the
sheep, the swine and poultry were in q
barn-yard with q large straw stack in
the center, surrounded on three sides
by buildings and on the fourth by a
high tight-board fence, basking in the
sunshine, with mmistakable evidences
OF enjoyment, and we regarded it as
decidedly a apleasant, gratifying spec
tacle. There was even beauty init.
Not every farmer has the capacity,
taste or means to create rural home
very nearly approximating the ideal
type, but we believe allmay do a great
deal towards improving the comfort
and beauty OF their homes il they but
will.

New Feminine style in Gait.

"Have you noticed the latest idea
with the ladies?" said an observant
Pittsburg shoe-dealer the other day.
mo. What is it?" asked report
er.
"a new style of walking; don't you
see? The real fashionable young lady
doesn't dawdle along now as if she
was going to have a tooth pulled. In
stead ofthat she takesa quick, ,springy
gait, not exactly as if she was in a
hurry, but as if she enjoyed walking
and was running over with animal
spirits and good health. That is the
idea they wish to carry out. Summer
is over, and every Young lady is sup
posed to have been either in the
country or at the sea-shore, and come
back full OF vigor. 1t isn't the prop
er thing at al now for young lady to
be tired. She may be slightly fatigu-
ed but tired is too great an ac-
knowledgment of weakness. I think
the idea is q good one anyway, and
the very appearance of good health
will bring good health. AT leastit will
bring outdoor exercise, and that is, the
next thing to it,"
