The unparalleled convention of Yves
virginlans which met in this city in
February last and set on foot the move
ment to develop the State, adjourned to
meet in Charleston on the 25th day OF
January next.
At this time the Board OF Immigra-
ton and Development will make its re-
port TO the whole association and sub.
nit such recommendations as it may
have matured for the further prosecution
OF the work.
This meeting will be one of greater
Importance, ii possible, than that OF Feb.
ruary last, for the servants OF the associ-
ation and of the people have had nearly
year in the new work, aud will be able
to submit matured scheme Of organi-
cation as the result OF their experience.
1t gives the 1NTELLIdEScER pleasure
to say that even with the limited funds
at its command the Board OF Immigra-
ton and Development has done great
deal OF work, accomplished some results
of n gratifying character and laid the
foundation for the speedy upbuilding OF
the splendid commonwealth which West
Virginia's resources destine her to be.
It was expected at the first that
the work could be carried on indef-
nitely by voluntary contributions;
neither was it expected that all Of the
possibilities could be realized in the first
year. The ideG was to make good be-
ginning and demonstrate that it is worth
while to go further and keep up the
work on systematic business basis.
1t is very desirable that the meeting Of
the Association Of Immigration and De
velopment shall be large and thoroughly
representative, embracing especially
those who were in at the birth of the
movement and as many more us may be
able to attend. The Legislature will be
in session at the time OF the meeting
and it will be entirely appropriate fol
the people to constitute their Delegates
and Senators delegates to the conyen
ton. OF course members of the Legis
lature will be invited to be present in
any case, and, being present, to take
part; but they can be all the more use
ful, perhaps, il the people OF their dis
tricts will meet promptly and select then
for tits special work.
Every West Virginiap is interested in
the movement to bring into the State
population and capital, and every West
Virginian ought to feel it his persona
duty TO help the movement at every
step. The popular responses thus faI
leave no room 70 doubt that the Ianuar!
} meeting will give an additional impulse
] to the movement and result in estab
, fishing it on a permanent basis, thor
oughly equipped for the best work.

All sorts of schemes are being resorted
to in the hope OF keeping Mr.. Blaine out
OF President Harrison's Cabinet.
The latest is story which runneth
thus: Mr.. Blaine said to some friends,
who were certain to take it to General
Garfield, that he would like the oppor'
tunity to decline the secretaryship Of
State. On this hint General Garfield
made the tender, and Blaine snapped it
npso quickly that itmade Gartield's head
swim.
0icourse there is not a word OF truth
in the story. Can't General Harrison be
trusted to make his own selections?

rnE YOrE roR sUPRENE JUDGES.

Hon. John W. Nilsson Calls Attention to M
Error In tho InteIliGcncer's Table of Re
turns.
To the Editor Of Tie ZateiGtaeer;
SRA few days ago there appeared
in your paper statement showing that,
excluding Kanawha county, Judge Nc
Whorter received for the office OF su'
prcme Judge Mt the November election
G9,Gl4 votes, and that l received for the
same office 1895 votes. The error was
SO manifest that supposed it would n
once be discovered and corrected, but !
have observed that the ISTELLIGESCER's
statement has been copied into manyoI
the weekly papers of the State. This
statement does injustice to Judge Nc.
Whorter. From what | learn from the
unofficial returns l think there are only
few votes difference between Judge
McWhorter and myself.
1t will be exceedingly gratifying to me
to hear when the returns from the State
shall have been fully canvassed, that
have more votes than either Judges
Brannon or English, but ] certainly have
no ambition to be considered ahead Of
my excellent friend and distinguished
associate. Very respectfully,
JOHN W. MASON.

curity HOlllerS.

NV York, Dec. 2l.-The expected
meeting Of railroad officials which was
arranged with SO much secrecy was held
yesterday at the house of Pierepont
Morgan, but was adjourned until to-

ready been approved by the Rothschilds,
Earrings and other bankers in Europe
and Drexel, Morgan & Co., Brown Bros,
Kidder, Peabody & Co., August Bel
mont & Co., and other bankers in this
city. The plan is virtually one formed
for the protection OF European security
holders, and the matter has been taken
up by the New York houses in accord
ance with directions from their foreign
principals. 1t is understood that the
purchases OF stocks since the opening
on Monday have been made on informa.
ton that all the railroad officials would
be notified that in nll cases where the
policy of the road met with disapproval
from the parties holding control, officials
responsible for the management be re-
quested to resign.

Charleston GGsc'te.
The Wheeling 1NTELLIGEScER favors
changing the name Of this State to "Ka-
nawha." The Register opposes it and
cllngs to the Virginia end OF the States
cognomen as something too sacred to be
even thought OF in connection with such
a change. So far as we are concerned,
We don't think the game is worth the
candle. Ii the gentlemen who presided
Mt the birth of this State had christened
it "Kanuwha" and so sent it on its way,
we think it would have been a com.
mendable act, and one the majority OF
the citizens OF the State would have con-
Cured in. Rut is too late now to un-
dergo the inconvenience that would re-
suit, for the mere qualification of taste.
But we think "Kanawha" would be the
better name as long as it cannot be "Vir-
GINA" The prefix, "West," destroys
the charm that l"Virginia" has for the
ears OF its sons and their descendants.
