The Sins Of Omission.

It isnt the thing you do. dear.
It,s the thing you leave undone.
Which gives you q bit OF heartache
AT the setting of the sun.
The tender word forgotten,
The letter you did not write,
The flower you mlghthave sent. dear,
Are your haunting ghosts tonight.
The stone you might have lifted
Out Of brothers way,
The bit Of heartsome counsel
You we're hurried too much to say.
The loving touch Of the hand, dear,
The gentle and winsome tone
That you had no time nor thought for,
With htrouble,enough Of your own.
These little acts Of kindness,
So easily out Of mind,
These chances to be angels
Which even mortals find,-
They come in mig ht and silence,
Each chill, reproachful wrath,
When hope is faint and Tagging.
And a blight has dropped on faith.
For life is all too short, dear,
And sorrow 1s all too great,
To suffer our slow compassion
That tarries until too late.
And it's not the thing you do, dear,
It's the thing you leave undone,
Which gives you the bitter heart-ache
At the setting of the sun.

came, and she met me as cordially as any
one could. l was here only q week before
her arrival, SO that there was little oppor-
tunity for visiting, but she insisted upon
taking me around to see everybody, and,
as | do not object to company, it was all
pleasant enough.
THE PARTY IN NAPA.
She was the one who got the Napa
party up and managed it all the way
through. She came 10 San Francisco and
bought some curtains for the occasion,
which cost $3.50, and I told her it was ex-
travagant, as had to pay for them"
The lady went on 10 say that Mrs. Car
lille ran away from home for reasons which
she could not account for, as her husband
had been apparently kind to her all the
time.
II am convinced, however, that she is
trying to get my money and is scheming
TO that end"
DOESN'T BELIEVE IN TIE CONSPIRACY.
Have you read the secret agreement
and understanding said TO exist between
MIR. and Mrs. Carlisle by which you were
to be made a support TO the family"
81 have not had time TO thoroughly I'M
derstaud the situation" replied the lady,
''but it is my deliberate and candid opin-
ion that there is nothing in it. | never
heard Of any conspiracy between Mr.. Car
isle and mis- wife with a view to get PTS
session of my property, and If there wasa
conspiracy il would have been found out"
"Have you read the agreement between
your guardian and his wife, in which he Is
10 secure a divorce and marry you for the
benefit of the children"
Really" said the little lady with snap
ping eyes, ~ have not had time to consult
nv lawyer, and he has advised me to say
nothing at all. / have a great deal of con-
6dence in my guardian, and am confident
that any apparent irregularities which
have occurred will be satisfactorily ex-
planned in due time"
Then you do not believe in the con-
spiracy as alleged"
Now l Just told you l must see my
lawyer, General Hart, before / talk n
more on that point"
A GOOD GUARDIAN.
"Mr. Carlile has accounted for every
cent of my money since he had charge OF
it, and l am satisfied; 80 no else need
feel disturbed. l had $40, 600 to begin
with, aud, with the exception Of 5000
that Mrs. Csrlile captured, l have all but
what was spent for board and schooling,
I am perfectly satisfied with Mr.. Carlile az
my guardian, and have no idea Of taking
another"
"What do you propose dOiug?"
"Well, I am going to Napa in the morn
ing and will see you later. Good night"

Already the REGIsTER has published a

corning the W. d. Carlile scandal now in
the California courts. The San Francisco
Examiner is Just at hand, containing full
particulars OF the affair, from which the
following extracts are taken:
The little city OF Napa is divided into
two disngreeing factions by the domestic
feuds of the Garlic family, which have
been made public property by the filing Of
I 80 singular suits in the Superior Court.
In one suit, Mrs. May $ Carlile charges
her husband, w. D. Garlic, with deser-
ton, and asks for separate maintenance,
but does not pray for a divorce. The
other suit is brought by Mrs. Garlic against
Miss Sarah J. Crute, a young woman pos

PATTY ORGANIZATION.
ApsmOcrAt SuSgests Hon. w. G. Brown
for Congress.


PRESTON Co, W. Va, March 23.-In
view OF the activity and bosstfully aggres-
sive attitude of the Republican party Of
West Virginia, it certainly becomes the
imperative duty Of the Democracy Of the
State to look we'll to the organization Of its
forces, and to achieve 81 decisive a victory
at the next election as will etfectually give
the lie to the Republican assertion that
West Virginia is a doubtful State" The
only real ground alike Of Republican hope
or Democratic fear in this State is
the oyerweening confidence of Demo
Gratis, which lulls them into the
dangerous belief that they can and
will continue to win, in spite Of blunders,
without organization and without effort.
This begets q growing indifference to the
claims alike Of party and of citizenship on
the part o fthousands Of Democratic voters,
and accounts for the lessening Democratic
majorities in this State. Here is the dan
ger, and if not looked to and ayerted will
result sooner or later in the loss of the
State TO the Democratic party. To pre-
vent this and to bring back our old-time
rousipg Democratic m ajorities, there should
Ut NOIululhlCu uuu luduSuldbCu uy JAW
State Executive Committee a thorough,
comprehensive and uniform plan Of organ
ization throughout the State, by coun-
ties, districts and sub-districts. Without
organization a political party is an uu-
known quantity, and its action always un-
certain and without cohesion. No pru-
dent General will underrate the strength
Of his enemy; nor will he, if time be al
lowed him for organization, drill and dis
cipline, lead IN u~norganized rabble to bat
tie against an army of veterans, whatever
numerical advantage he may have. These
maxims of war, without much modifica-
lion will apply with almost equal force in
the conduct and management Of political
campaigns. Let the State Committee and
the County Committees, acting in hearty
cooperation, give us such an or
ganization as will light up and
keep brightly burning from every
hill. top of the State the c%ampdres Of De-
mocracy, and il will require no prophet
nor even the son Of a prophet to fOretell
the result Of the next battle with our polit-
ical enemy. In this county there have
been for several years disintegrating causes
at work in the Republican ranks, the effect
OF which will continue to be seen in re-
duced Republican msjorities.
Though outnumbered, the Democracy
of old Preston is of SO sterling a kind that
it never fails to come up TO the scratch
smiling. In the next Democratic Con-
gressional Convention for this the Sec
ond) district q solid delegation from
this county will present the name
of VIM. G. Brown, and urge his nomina-
tion. As the staudaId-b bearer OF the Dem
ocracy in the Second district Mr.. Brown
would possess peculiar strength. In the
prime and vigor of manhood, of great
wealth, op~en-hearted and op~en-handed,
genial, upright and c~lear-headed are
among the qualities that go to make mp
his equipment.

B~URNsvILLE, w. VA, March 2l.-
Burnsville is a village in Braxton county
on the Little Kanawha river, seventeen
miles above Glenville, containing 40 in
habitants. 1t was formerly called Lumber
port, on account Of the vast quantity Of
lumber that was shipped from this point
The lumber business is still the principal
industry Of the vicinity, but the name of
the place was changed 10 huntsville some
years ago, in honor Of Capt. j. M. Burns,
who brought the first sawmill to this Sec
tion.
The town has q good school. house, two
story, but the free SCHOOL lasts only four
months in the year. This spring and sum-
mer, however, there will he two select
schools taught hero by two young gentle
men, graduates of the Glenville Normal
School. 1t contains one church, Presby-
terrain, but several other denominations
have organizations here, viz Baptists,
Southern M~ethOdists, Methodist Protest
ants and United Brethren. We have two
Sunday Schools, Ii a Southern Methodist
and the other q union school.
We have one of the largest wagon and
buggy factories in Central West Virginia,
which has a large aud growing trade in
twelve counties Of the State, a good flour
ing mill, n general store, one saddler
shop, two blacksmith shops, one hotel,
one physician, two ministers, and We need
at once a good shoemaker, a tailor aud a
m%illiner.
The place has q Democratic club OF sixty
members, which, in honor Of Hon. J. n.
Camden, is called the Camden club. This
club has a reading room which is supplied
with the leading daily papers OF the conn.
try, among them the REGISTER.
The country around the place is filing
mp very rapidly with people from the more
northern counties, but still there is room
for more. The land is cheap in price and
of excellent quality. d. K.

~'AA S
Mr.. EpTToR:-Most of the time for the
past two months l have been confined to
my bed by a seyre illness, and during that
period / have suffered the wave Of slander
and calumny to pass over me ~unrebuked,
owing to the PURGE from which it is said
to have emsnated. In your issue Of Sat-
urday, the Sd instant you publish what
appears to be an una~utheuticated special
from Kansas City TO the Chicago Tribune,
stating among other false things that the
suit against me growing ont of a personal
encounter with the editor of the Kansas
City Times twas dropped with the under
standing that l would leave the city" /
desire to say that | did not leave Kansas
City pursuant to any such understanding
The true reasons for my leaving there with
ms family I will fully disclose when | am
required TO make my defense in a court Of
Justice in the suit now pending against me.
While 1 I'm placed in the position Of one
most falsely and violently accused, / can
not make any defense or open my mouth in
yindication OF myself outside Of the courts
lest l appear voluntarily to attack the
character of Mrs. Carlile, in defense Of
which / have counted life of no value, and
witnessed every earthly hope pass from
me.
While / do not claim TO be free from mis-
takes, or better than my fellow-men, and
much as l deplore an unnecessary eontro-
versy between Mrs. Csrlile and myself,
nevertheless / fear no conflict involving the
rectitude of my conduct or the purity Of
my intentions.
l do lament from the bottom Of my
heart, in common to some extent with
every good citizen of this community. the
publicity of a domestic infelicity inspired
by the hope of scandal, or desire for
money, or any other purpose, with or with
out cause.
