Revolution in West vireInIa.

WASHINGTON, July PA dispatch from
Wheeling, W. Va, says: "The greatest po-
litical revolution ever witnessed in West
Virginia is now in progress. When the
President issued his free trade message last
winter Republicans said here that it would
make West Virginia doubtful state. Later,
when the Mills bill was introduced, many
leading Democrats, who had until then kept
a stiff upper lip, began to weaked and admit
that the State might with propriety be
placed in the doubtful column, but when the
st. Louis platform was adopted they gave
up hope altogether, and only waited to hear
from the Chicago Convention to determine
their future course, whether they would re-
main Inactive or openly support the Repub-
lican ticket. Particularly was this true of
the manufacturers, wool growers and prom
inent laborihg men who have been for many
years high in the council of the Democratic
party. In the interior of the State the move
ment for Harrison among the Democrats is
principally among the lumber, salt, wool and
coke men and old line Wings who voted for
Tippecanoe in 1840."

Notes..

President Cleveland's letter Of acceptance
Is expected to appear by the latter part Of
this week. He has delayed the completion
OF his document so as to be enabled to make
mention Of the action of the House upon the
Mills tariff bill.
Information comes from Indianapolis that
Gen. Harrison has almost finished his letter
of acceptance and that it will be made pub
lie within week or ten days.
The President and Mrs. Cleveland still ad-
here to their original programme, notwith-
standing their newspaper outings, not 70
leave the city until after the adjournment of
Congress. The visit of Mrs. Cleveland to
Newport has turned into airy nothingness,
and the elaborated story Of a contemplated
visit to Thomas Williams Grove, at the
Changers picnic next month, has gone the
same way.
A resolution to print 5000 additional copies
of the report of the Senate committee on
pensions on the subject of the vetoed PEN
sion bills was taken up and discussed i'm the
Senate today Mr.. COckrell offered an
amendment to print 100000 copies of the
Presidential vetoes in the last and present
Congresses. After discussion the matter
was allowed to pass over.

poor punctuation. How often are

HOW TO GET RICH.

nal conceived the idea of getting
the opinion of some rich men as to
the best methods of accommodating
wealth. Valuable suggestions were
made by several millionaires, but
those OF P. I. Bdrnum, the great
Snowman, are worthy of note.
Mr.. Barnum's letter contained the
following;
Money is good for nothing unless
you know the value of it by expert
ence. Give boy $4,000 and put
him in business, and the chances
are that he will lose every dollar of
it before he is a year older. Nine
out of every ten of the rich men OF
our country to-day started out in
life as poor boys, with determined
wills, industry, perseverance, econ
omy and good habits.
The great ambition should be to
excel all others engaged in the same
occupation. Whenever you find the
best doctor, best clergyman, best
shoe maker, or anything else, that
man is most sought for, and always
has enough to do. Everybody
should learn some trade or profess
sion. Engage i'll one kind of bust
mess only, and stick to it faithfully
until you succeed, or until your ex-
perience shows that you should
abandon it. A constant hammer
ing on one nail will generally drive
it home at last, so that it can be
clinched. There is good sense in
the old caution about having too
many irons in the fire at once. Be-
ware of "outside operations"
Read the newspapers and keep
thoroughly posted in regard to the
transactions of the world. He who
doesn't consult the newspapers will
soon find himself and his business
left out in the cold.
Be careful to advertise in some
shape or other, because it is evident
that if a man has ever so good an
article tor sale, and nobody knows
it, it will bring him no return. The
whole philosophy of life is, first sow,
then reap. The principle applies
to all kinds OF business, and nothing
more eminently than to advertising.
If a man has really good article,
there is no way in which he can
reap more advantageously than by
sowing to the public in this way.
If man has goods for sale, and he
doesn't advertise them, the chances
are that some day the sheriff will do
it for HIM.
Politeness and civility are the
best capital ever invested in bust
ness. Large stores, gilt signs, fam
ing advertisements will all prove un-
availing if you or your employees
treat your patrons abruptly. The
more kind man is, the more gen.
erous will be the patronage bestow-
ed upon him.
Preserve your integrity; it is
more precious than diamonds or ru-
bies. The most difficult thing in life
is to make money dishonesty. Our
prisons are full Of men who attempt
ed to follow this course. No man
can be dishonest without soon being
found out, and when his lack of
principle is discovered, nearly every
avenue to success is closed against
him forever. Strict honesty not
only lies at the foundation of all
successful life financially, but every
other respect.

Gen. sehoaeid.s Report.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 90. Maj. Gen.
schofeld, in his annual report, says the
past year has been one Of peace among
the Indians formerly 80 troublesome.
Referring to Notifications, the general
says, the time and circumstaness4now
seem particularly favorable to placing
the seacoast and frontiers Of the coun-
try in a state Of security becoming the
dignity Of q great and proud, though
Just and peaceful nation.
Reference is made to the impairment
OF the efficiency of the army through the
absence Of officers from their regiments
or corps. He thinks that the service
would be greatly benefited If such off,
GERS as are disabled could be retired and
their places filed by young and active
men. There wsre 2,f86 assertions from
the army during the past year and the
average desertions for each of the last
five years were 1913 per cent. Of the en-
tira enlisted strength, or 6f.5 per cent.
during the whole period. Gen. Schofield
recommends that the reward for the ar
rest of a deserter be increased to 800.

The citizens of Parker we're startled
Tuesday morning about 4 o'clock by the
alarm OF fire and awoke to find the ele-
giant residence of Mr.. Lyman in flames.
Mrs Lyman barely escaped in her night
clothes. Their beautiful home and nice
furniture are all destroyed, evidently the
work OF burglars, as the safe In which
was kept valuable papers was open.
At Woonsooket last week the terri,
torial veterinarian discovered q large
number of glandered horses. A mum Der

WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.-The Star says:
In cabinet gossip Mr.. Dingley is spoken

among the most probable things that
JOHN Wanamaker will be postmaster

Kinley would take his place in the sem

to the former. Under this arrangement
it is thought that Mr.. Buttsrworth
would be speaker OF the house., The
opinion is very often expressed that the
