1t will be a State convention. Every
county and community of West Virginia

Every locality in the State, and every
individual in the State can directly or in
directly have a voice in this convention
It is called for the general good, and every
section may profit by it-unless, perhaps,
it be that section which is 50 Indifferent as

We really think that a subject Of your
own invention would be far, far funnier
than anything we could think of. But, If
YOU insist, Miss Cap" why, of course,
there is nothing left for us but to comply.
If you are q girl who takes an interest IN
politics you might find a very amusing
theme in that. Politics is a target as big
"a a barn door for shafts of wit like yours.
The cfhce seeker for instance, Is very Vul-
nersble in this respect. You can say no
end of funny things about the candidate.
The debaters on protection VS.. free trade,

and get lost in the mazes of their own in
t~ellects, arc also very amusing fellows.
You might take the wild western congress
man, whose number lis grace his desk In

your subject. You are one Of those girls,
Miss Cap" who don't like dudes and
YOU will have no conjunction in raking
him fore and aft rs he deserves. Again
YOU might combine instruction with amuse-
ment in an essay on the horizontal en-
larsement of the hustle; why on earth are
they worn, and why is it that the ugly
girPs hustle is always so much larger than
the pretty girls? You might follow
this subject indefinitely including the
trials and ~tribulatiOns of a fashionable girl
of the period. You might tell your audi
tors why il IS that u young man labors
under the impression that his best girl
prefers the odor of cloves to that OF whisky.
Or you might 20 into metaphysics and ex
plain the peculiar construction Of a wom-
ans brain that enables her to suddenly slt

BOOM II STATE.

From the WAefing Register February 4.
This is the watchword that we desire
our friends throughout West Virginia TO
take up and pass along the line. Pass 1t
long from Hancock to Mcdowell, from
hilltop TO hilltop. Let it echo up the Vai-
Isys. Let the welcome sound pierce the
depths of our leafy forests, the herald Oh a
new era in the life of our young state
West Virginia must no longer lag at the
tail of the new South in point of develop
ment.
Let US be up and doing. We must let
the world know we are here; that we nave
the most fertile valleys, the noblest and
most valuable forests and the richest anu
most inexhsustible mines, lacking cnly
the spade, the axe, the pick and the shovel
to make their possessors rich and the State
prosperous, beyond imagination.
To do 80 we must advertise the fact.
The Wheeling Chamber Of Commerce
has started the West Virginia boom. IL
only remains for the State to take 1t up
To this end the REGISTER requests that It's
contemporaries throughout the State publish
in as conspicuous a place in their columns
as possible, and keep standing, the follow
ing resolutions adopted at a meeting OF the
Wheeling Chamber OF Commerce held Feb
ruary l, 1888:

industrial enterprises in west Virginia, the

source, and cheapuess of our lands, iurnlsh d

papers and also that they urge upon the
people in the several counties the holding
of meetings TO select delegates to the pro-
posed convention il addition to those who
may come voluntarily and in view Of the
shcrtness of the time it is hoped that the
State press may not wait for a more formal
request.
The committee also requests that those
who have lard to sell bring to the conven-
ton such information relating thaeto as
would be Of use i'll soliciting immigration.
Now is the time to increase our popula,
tion, wealth and prosperity and by the
concerted action outlined above We can
do il.

The record of labor difficulties for 1887,
as made up by Brudstrest's, il painfully
significant. 1t is estimated, by an aver
age of numerous strikes during 1887, that
the workmen awaiting themselves Of that
means of asserting their rights lost - per
cent Of their earnings, or one months
wages for each. The aggregate OF wages
thus lost is enormous, reaching the figure
of S13, 500, 900, on the basis Of the
rates sgainst which the strikers re-
belled. 1t is also noticeable that
all such strikes failed OF &C
complishing the purpose for which they
were undertaken. There was the strike
of the coal handlers, which drew In $4,000
men by sympathy" in the early part OF
the year; the strike among the MaSsachu-
sets shoe factory operatives; the coke
burners strike in Pennsylvania, and that
of the Lehigh miners; with the strike in
the Chicago building trades. The wages
lost in these five movements alone are
estimated at more than $40, OOO, 900. 1t
may be said that the general condition Of
the workingmen must be exceptionally
good TO stand such q strain, and for this
we may be thankful; but the loss is a
positive one, and the suffering which it
entailed is real. The most melancholy
feature of it is that all the trouble might
have been avoided by the simple means OF
arbitration.
