That honest, sturdy old patriot, John
Sherman, is after the trusts with a sharp
stick and fire in his eye. He lives next
door neighbor to the petroleum trust,
has seen the evil results of the sugar trust,
the pernicious. wicked influence of that
biggest of all, the whisky trust. The
senator's resolution, introduced a few
days ago in that body, providing for an
inquiry concerning trusts, combinations,
agreements or contracts that tend to pre-
vent full and free competition in manu-
facturies, or in the exchange of imported
goods, is movement in the right direc-
ton, and should be pressed to practical
operation.

HARRISBURG NOTES.

Special Correspondence Of the Sunday Register.
CLARKsBURG, December 15.-The Fed
eral building at this place is now nearing
completion, and by the first OF the year the
postOfice will be removed into it, besides
the next term of the United States CourI
will be held in it. The State Court House
is finished and now occupied, the clerks o.
the County aad Circuit Courts having re-
moved their offices the early part CT
the week. The first Court will be
held in January, by Judge-elect Hen. J,
N Hagans.
1t is, however, to be regretted that be
fore winter set in, the bridges in the
county, taken out during the great flood,
were not rebuilt. The streams keep Il ush
and there is but little if any communica
ton between the city and the county.
This is matter which should receive
prompt attention, and is necessary, done al
once, to replace the bridges, and especially
those most used by the general public.
Taking everything into consideration,
the prospects in this locality for better
times are very good. There are quite q
number of enterprises which bid iair to
better the condition of our city and COun-
ty. The water works are now almost COM
pleted, and necessary ordinances have
hem adopted for the thorough regulation
OF perfect system.
At the first Of the year there are 70 be
elected Mayor, Recorder and Council
There will not likely be much contest, as
the psople desire to elect mayor who will
strictly enforce the law, and council
which will look carefully to the finances
OF the city.
The Farland Coal & Coke Company are
erecting large number Of coke ovens at its
mines southwest of Clsrksbu-g.
There is also in contemplation the es-
Enlistment of street Car system, and
building a lire Of road from Adamstop,
where there is now postofli,e and which
will soon be a station on the B. q Q. r
R., to the depot of that railroad at this
city. There is nothing that will facilitate
the growth of Clarksburg more, and it is
an enterprise that should be encouraged
by our citizens, who will, no doubt, sub
scribe literally to its success.
