A Western man said to "Bystandor"
Of the Philadelphia NeUs the other

Philadelphia men that | think is char
acterisiic of thrift. Nearly every one
of them carries his money in purse or
pocketbook instead of loose in his
pocket. In New York or Chicago u
man in q street car paying his fare, or
in barroom paying for drink, runs
the thumb and dexter finger of his
right hand into his vest pocket and
with them pulls out his money, which
If bills, is in q wad, or If silver, involves

so does the average Philadelphia act
under similar circumstances He puts
his hand into his pantaloons pocket,
takes out his pooketbook, opens 1t, gets
what he wants, puts his change, If
there is any coming to him, in it, and
then closes and carefully replaces it
where he found it. This to me Is In.
dicative Of care and method, and, |

enough of his money to take proper

Another Surviving War Governor.


EDITOR CRrTIC: In looking over your
article OF this date on the "War Governors
Who They Are" etc, notice an omission
which have seen In several recently pub
l.hed articles on the same subject in other
papers. Hon. +. IL. Pierpont of Falrmont
w. Va, was Governor Of Virginia, and
later of the then new State of West Vir.
ginia. This omission may be due to the fact
that lie has mingled less in public life since
the war than many Of the Others whereby
his once familiar name has been partially
forgotten; but he ought not to be over
looked, nevertheless, for he was no mean
factor in the events of that timc. In the
forty years that | have known him he has
not only witnessed, but helped In no small
degree, to achieve some most important
changes. AS long ago as 1850, though
living In slave State, he was an outspoken
opponent OF human slavery and a decided
advocate of separate statehood for West
Virginia. He lived to see slavery abolished,
the state divided, and to be War Governor
of both States. Few, If any, did more than
he to keep what is now West Virginia on
the right side at the beginning Of the war,
and his name should not be left out OF any
"well regulated" list Of loyal War Gov
ernors. w. w. G..
