The Home for Friendless Women.
The ladies having the management OF
the West Virginia Home for Friendless
Women, meet in its parlors Oh the after
noon of the fourth Friday in each month.
Their last meeting, held on the 2stb, was

did it unto Me" In the past month, be-
side those who have been helped for short
time, two inmates have gone into steady
employment, one in the city, smother in

more gratified than are Others who have

DO FIGURES LIEF
An Example in arithmetic that Puzzled
Two Women and a Merchant,
From Spence>8 Papers.

Do figures lie? Let uBsses::'
Two women had thirty 3hittti75s11''@'
each, which they took to market.
They agreed to divide equally the
proceeds of their sale.
One sold her chickens two for
81. getting for her thirty chickens
S15.
The other sold hers three for
81, getting for her chickens $40.
This made S25 realized on the
sixty chickens.
The merchant called to divide
the money said:
"You sold your thirty chickens
two for 81, and you sold your
thirty chickens three for 81. That
makes sixty chickens at the rate of
FIVE for 81. We'll, five into sixty
goes twelve times twice twelve is
twenty-fOur. That makes S24
your chickens brought"
But, as shown above, the women
actually had s25 in their pockets.
And yet the merchants figures were
right.
Do figures lie?

Mortgage Farms.

1t is no exaggeratiOn to say that
more than one.half of the farms of
the Southern and Western States
are mortgaged, and in most part to
Eastern insurance companies.
In the face of this alarming fact is
is to be wondered at that the farm

Loyal, sunprejudiced portion OF the citi-

Opera House and organized Golf Re-
publican club; discOuntenanced every.
thing like Free Trade, and endorsed
every action OF the Republican party
We, as Republicans, formerly had Il little
interest in free wool, but that was pre-
vious to the rebellion, when that article
was grown on the slaves head. That
matter was chectuaIly settled by Presi'

since which time We are strict protec-
tioniss. One thing is certain, as
West Virginia increases in wealth, mech
anism and intelligence, Democracy will
wilher and die. GOD speed the blow
and send us free schools. free press and

You may rely upon our doing our part

HIGn VIEW, Va, Oct. G.-Last week
the Republicans Of High View and vi
ciuity raised flag at this place in honor
of Harrison and Morton. The pole
stands in Hampshire, near the line be-
tween the two States, and is u beauty,
nearly one hundred feet high. A good
crowd was in attendance. and was adj
dressed by Gen. John Roller, a candi-
date for Congress in Virginia. Gen.
Rollers speech was plain, pointed and to
the purpose. At the close OF his speech
the ladies presented him with beauti.
full bouquet.
He was followed by Mr.. John II. Holt,
OF West Virginia. Mr.. Holt made fine
effort. The crowd soon learned that he
was by no means ''slow of tongue" He
exposed the Free Trade fallacy to its
bones. Young Mr.. Pownal, OF Romney,
was next to speak. The sun being low
he had but time to make few remarks
but they were to the point and with
marked intelligence.
a Republican flag is something en-
tirely new in this section, and it has sc
stirred our unbclieving brethren OF the
Free Trade persuasion, that they, too
are going to do likewise.

Democratic Committee, is not well up in

drunk deep OF the Book OF Reform as
prepared by Grover Cleveland. So he
goes ahead, as shown in The INrELLGEN-

that "The Lord loves generous giyer,'
and reminding them that the list OF
givers will be carefully scanned when

ports OF clothing wool, the staple OF our
West Virginia, Ohio and Pennsylvania
growers, have doubled along with the
imports OF the lower and lowest grades.
The Free Trade argument does not stand
the strain OF this first test.
In the States officially classified as
Western Reports OF the Department OF
Agriculture there were in 1887 more
sheep than in 1888 but less by nearly a
million than in 1886. In the Pacific
Coast group the growth OF sheep hus-
bandry has been brought to a stand
still. Oregon is one OF the States OF this
group, and Oregon has recently told her
sister States what she thinks OF free
wool.
In the Territories the Industry is on
the down grade, and while there are
more sheep than there were in 1855
there are less than in any year since,
and the figures show n loss OF half a
million sheep from 1886 to 1887. Inthe
great stretch from the Ohio river to the
Pacific ocean there were 1926 sheep
lost from lsSGto 1887.
Whatever this western competition
may be it does not show 4 growing in
dustry. The entire country shows Il
loss OF 100000 sheep since the rcduc-
ton OF the wool tariff in 1888. The Free
Trade argument does notstand the strain
Of this second test,
1t must be that Senator Kenna and
the other Free Trade stumpers did moi
consult the official record before prepar
ing their campaign speeches.

"JUsTICE" states some facts and makes
some comments far from crcditable to
the management Of the Hospital for
Insane at Weston. The rank injustice
OF that management with regard to the
unfortunate patients and the taxpayers
who support the institution, is one OF
the reasons why large numbers OF men
who helped to put the Democracy in
power in this State will this year help
to give the Democracy rest from the
cares OF governing.
