The COURIER desires to congratu
late the Blizzard upon its able and
finely written article on the Catho
lie fair, printed in the last issue Of
that paper. 1t makes us poor, one.
horse scribblers fairly weep with
envy, when perusing the brilliant
scintillations of these bright young
journalists. We print short ex-
tract from the article, merely to
show the profundity of thought en-
comprised. Listen to these beauti-
full lines:
Beautiful smiles protruded from
behind the gaudy coat of white
paint, which was visible on the faces
of several ladies. The crowd was
constipated and sandwiched by a
few who were ''struck on their
shape" and wanted to capture the
la de-da dudes who were present.
How well they succeeded, we give
it up"
The structures on the "crowd"
were no doubt well merited, but the
weak, timid nature Of the COURIER
would have hardly dared to make
such bold charge. After learning
the true situation we might have
suggested pills." but then the re-
suit, should the suggestion have
been followed, would have been
most horrible. We can see and ap-
preciate the fact that it is a good
thing for an editor, even in these
every day occurrences Of life, to be
well fortified with brilliant mind
and profound learning. We again
congratulate these young men.
Boys, you are certainly "gittin thar"
with both feet.

RuNAwAY.--On Monday afternoon
as Louis Behlmyer was leaving
town with big load of shingles, a
bunch fell off near Jack Coverdale's
shop, which started his horses on
the run, scattering the shingles in
every direction and throwing Louis
off the wagon just on the other side
of the railroad track. Mr.. Delaney
ayas near by on horse back and he
at once started in pursuit Of the fly
ing team. He caught them about
half mile out and returned them.
There seemed to be 20 serious dam
age done either TO the wogon, horses
or Louis. He reloaded his shingles
and started on bis way home rejoic-
ing.

Hints for Housewives.

The best way when hot grease
has been spilled on the floor is
TO dash cold water on it, so as
to harden it quickly and proven
ting it striking into the
boards.
In mixing mustard for table
use never add vinegar, which
DESTROYS its life and flavor Bod
water for moistening ii, and let
the water become blood warm.
For cleaning brass use 4 thin
paste Of plate powder, two teas
poonsful Of vinegar, four table
spoonsful of alcohol. Rub with
piece of flannel; polish with
chamois.
A good disinfectant is made
by dissolving half drachm of
nitrate of lead in a pint of boil
ing water, and then dissolve
two drachms of common salt in
eight or ten quarts of water.
Cracks in stoves and stove
pipes are readily closed by a
paste made of ashes and salt
with water. Iron turniDgs or
filings, sale ammoniac and wa
ter make a harder and more
durable cement.

z IN DEFEAT.

Grover Cleveland is a greater man
in defeat than his opponents in victory.
He IS the embodiment of a principle
that lifts him beyond the shadow Of
circumstances. He is happily compared
in the Courier-Journal to that grand
old statesman, Gladstone, in the fol-
lowing language
Gladstone, in Office, which he might
have held indefinitely by a do-nothing
and a see-nothing policy, subordinated
all other interests TO the one issue Of
local self-government for Ireland.
On the first appeal to the country,
Mr.. Gladstone was overwhelmed. Ig-
norance and prejudice were appealed
to; the fear Of any radical change on
the part Of the government was aroused
and Mr.. Gladstone, a party leader Of
vast experience, and a statesman Of far
reaching view, was defeated on an ISSUE
that becOmCs historical, and which must
eve appeal TO mans warmest sympa-
thies and his clearest intelligence.
Mr.. Cleveland was an unknown
quantity in politics when nominated
for Governor Of New York ia 1882
lie lacked Gladstono's political ezpe-
r%ience, his gift Of e%loquence, his power
as a political leader.
Chosen President, he gave to al the
affairs Of state conscientious personal
devotion. His grasp Of the principles
Of government was firm and oompre-
hensivo. Tie overlooked al the indi-
vidual elements in political equations,
and with a courage that was ostound-
ing, drove right to The heart Of a mat

To THE Hon. William L. Wilson the
ARGUS extends its heartiest congratu-
lations. You fought the battle of the
people against corruption, intimidation
and the combined money of manufac-
turers and monopolists. and won. You
came out of the battle loved and res
pected by every honest and patriotic
West Virginian. They could not pick
a flaw in your record as a public man,
and the only charge they could prefer
against you was that you we're an hon
est representative of the people and
su~bservient to manufacturers and mo-
nopoly. God bless you, Mr.. Wilson.

'RAH FOR PRESTON.

When we take the vote OF the various
counties throughout the State of West
Virginia we feel proud of old Preston
county. With more than two votes
to n against us, and all the doodle"
and speakers they asked for, we not
only held our own but increased our
vote considerable over that of 1884.
In the wisdom of the State Executive
Committee they seen proper to ignore
Preston county and let us hoe her own
row the best she could, while the COM
mittee gave its time and means to other
counties. And what is the result?
The result is that old Preston held up
her end of the string, and the enemy
made no inroads upon Preston apart
from the natural increase of young
voters, while the other counties lost
heavily. We are not complaining but
we want to be put on record as one
among the few counties in West Vir-
ginia who have met the enemy and re-
fused to surrender.

TnE Democrats of this county did
fairly well, considering everything was
against them. They increased their
vote over one hundred on the Presi-
dency and over two hundred on the
Governor over that Of 1884. OF course
the Republicans increased their vote in
the same ratio. In '84 this county
cast about 1000 votes, in round num-
Der; this year we cast about4500, an
increase Of 500 over the vote of "a.

ter without counting the cost Of his
actions.
His veto of the pauper pension bill,
considered only as an exhibition Of
courage was OF more service to Ameri-
can politics than the whole ~administra-
ton Of an ordinary President. That
veto elected the praise of his enemies,
but turned from him the misguided
~sympathies Of enough soldiers in Indi-
ana to give the State to the Republican
party. So
His message on the tariff marks an
era in our political history. BY that
message more was done for the cause
of reform than any man could accom-
plish by four years of silent acquies-
cence in the enormities of that system
of oppression, however high the char
acter of his administration might be.
Cleveland put his political fortunes
at stake On n issue, as Gladstone did,
and with like result, but, as no one
doubts that, by his advocacy of the
cause Of Ireland, Gladstone has changed
the whole aspect in the conflict and
made Ireland's success certain in the
near future, so Cleveland's bold course
his great message, his infexible faith
in the cause, make certain the triumph
Of reform in the near future, however
dark temporary defeat may SEEM"

DEPRESSED.

The Grafton correspondent of the
Wheeling IntelligencOr writes:
1.-The Republicans here are jubilant
over the increased vote in this county
over '84, but correspOndingly depressed
over the returns from Preston, as a
majority of 1900 was confidently cx-
pected."
There seems to be a general depres-
sion all along the line because Preston
didn t roll up 1900 or 1000 majority.

IT IS amazing and amusing to see
how fast the Republican papers and
statesmen are coming out for tariff re-
form. Their high tariff arguments
seem to have convinced themselves that
President Cleveland was right. We
shall expect to see the Journal and Era
advocating tariff reform as soon as they
can work their surplus of jollifcation
off. We want them to feel good as
long as they can, for it will not be long
until they are called upon to explain
why the manufactures has not increased
the wages of his men.
