Town and County.

THE people of New Athens neighbor-
hood are stirred with the hope that the
Valley Railway will be extended to the
Ohio River, and that that town will be on
the line. This road is now being operated
from Cleveland to Valley Junction, near
Canal Dover, leaving gap of about fifty
miles to Bellaire. Itruns through Akron.
Canton, and other good towns. has valu-
able terminal facilities at Cleveland, is
operated and owned by the men who built
it, and in every respect is one of the best
roads in Ohio. Its advent in this county
would be an important event. Its extern
sion somewhere is only question of time.
For years it was operated only to Akron
then for other years to Canton-nOw to
Valley Junction. 1t will not stop there
permanently, that much is certain.
THE st. Clairsville Republican Club had

The interest in the Club is increasing. and
the membership is being materially en-
larged. This organization is capable of
a healthy influence, and every Republican

it.
The regular monthly meeting will occur
on Thursday evening of next week.

Words Of Wisdom.


Whatever is the object OF
faith should not be submitted
to reason, and much less bend
to it.
We can finish nothing in
this life; but we may make a
beginning, and bequeath a no
BILE example.
They pass best over the world
who trip over itquickly; for it
is but a bog-if we stop we
sink.
True friends visit, us in pros
perity only when invited and
In adversely they come without
invitation.
We cannot conquer a necessi-
ty, but we can yield to it in
such way as to be greater
than if we could.
Oui lJdcs1ODS are Inc IOllt III
sion fits, which makes us strong
for the time, but leave lis weaker
for ever after.
Excess of ceremony shows
want of breeding; that civility
is best which excludes all super
fiuOus formalitv.
Every good act is charityl A
mans true wealth hereafter is
the good that he does in this
world to his fellow men
Great results cannot be
achieved at once; and we must
be satisfied to advance in life
as we walk, step by step.
Success secures the approba-
ton of the world, for as the
wise man says: men will
praise thee when thou doest
well for myself"

Mt. JACKSON, Va, Jan. %.
Mr.. EDITOR There has beer
so much said on the tariff question
that the minds OF the people have
become so muddled, by all kind.
Of arguments, that a PLAIN common
sense view cf it has been entirely
ignored, or in other words, lost
sight of. Such being the case
will endeayOr to present a few
points in as PLAIN manner as plain
language can put them:
Ours Is 4 vast country, sufficient
in resources to support millions of
people Tor hundreds of years.
Now, let us consider that our
population at the present time is
between fifty-fye and sixty millions,
and that dH these people have moth.
ing to subsist on but that which
this land will produce: and let us
consider that the grcdtcr maj0rity
OF our people have no share in, or
title to, any of this land. Now,
what are all those people to live on
who have no land? Common sense
or nature will dictate the answer:
They must look to those who own
the land for the privilege of open.
ing up its resources and producing
that which we all need. So you
see that if the rich will furnish the
land and capital, and the poor furn-
lsh the labor, we can all get along
together in peace and harmony
each working tor the good of the
other. But, if the rich, who are
PRINTED to own the land, which |
. ture intended for all, are permit. |
:, | to buy but one dollars worth |
hon other nations, it takes that /
much from our own poor and puts
4 into the hands of people of other
nations. The narrow. minded view,
that the laborer who draws his high
tariff wages in the evening, and
who, in going home to his family,
has to buy high tariff articles, is no
better but worse off, is the most
cunning piece of sOphistry that man
IAN devise. Suppose every man in
he United States would buy for.
ign made articles brcause of cheap.
less, what would become Of the
lOOr who have no land? Let me
ell you, my dear reader, that the
zig land owners would have them &
