THE INDEX Is PANIED.
Fairmont Index Dem)
AS the publican party is the
only genuine, with name blown in
the bottle, temperance, religious
and moral party, it pains US to see
the newspapers of that party in
this State arraying themselves
against the wicked Prohibitionists
and whetting their knives to stab
the Amendment.
PRINCIPLE AND ExPEDIENCY.
Intelligencer, Rep.
In the Prohibition Convention
the Third Party was kept in the
background. This will please those
who prefer Prohibition to politics.
All the same the Third party men
are likely to have their ticket in
the field, and everybody must ad-
NIT that they have as much right
to name ticket as any other party
has. 1t combines a question of
principle with one of expediency,
and the Third party men say they
are not much in love with expedi-
ency.
WON'T ENDANGER THE AMENDMENT.
Panhandle News, Dem.
A meeting of the Prohibition
Amendment League was held at
Petersburg on Tuesday, but we
fail to see from the published pro-
ceedings that anything of import
ance was accomplished. = x 1t
is likely, however, that a straight
Prohibition ticket will be put in
the field for the coming State cleo
tion. For that matter, we don't gee
why the orohibitionists haven't
just as good right to nominate a
ticket as the Democrats, Republi-
cans or Laborities; nor can we see
why such aston should endanger
the success of the Amendment.
eRIEvED BUT NOT WITHOUT HOPE.
Buckhannon Delta, Rep. 3
It seems that the Third party
prehibitionists are determined to
have a ticket in the field and enter
the arena for spoils with the other
parties with much less chance for
success. We had hoped for the
sake OF the Amendment that the

instead OF the 1gare tynlcn tne t51rI had
braced herself to IA BET, however, Thorney
White came in, smiling and downcast, too
timid to lift his eyes as high as strangers
face, yet too doggedly indignant at the
world in general to avoid all encounter with
it. He seemed ready to fall apart, so slight
q hold had his garments on each others
support; and his hay-colored hair hung over
q silly face which expressed nothing but an
appeal to his sister. His sprawling boots
were heavy with suca moist earth as he
had been able to collect upon them during
his tramp across the Hollow: but barnyard
odors rather than breath Of the spring
woods saturated his presence and spread
around him. The black wool hat, which had
gathered dust undistlroed since Phoebe
brushed it last, was worried down to his
ear3 and propped b. them; and his hands
appeared well along On their journey to-
ward his knees in yGwuing trOwser pockets.
Thorney's chin, evidently put on as an after
thought and scarcely belonging to his face,
hung in moments OF vacancy toward his
breast; but just now, feeling the presence
of unexpected society, he male successive
efforts to hold it up and swallowed audibly
in the struggle
Gurley thought he hal never seen more
repulsive creature. But if Thorney had
been a shining and fiT,l angel, Phoebe could
not have run to him wa swifter change of
countcnance and ~ .nnCr. She turned him
towards Gurlcy materially, as both vouch-

Psyche

told me half the men are divinity students
and not dancing men at all.'

Glrley, with enjoyment. "But was going

We take to charades and tableaux."
'!Oh, how easy,' said Psyche. "Why
didn't you say so before!"
g And then we end with college songs and
so home blessing our entertainer"
The company was accordingly soon divided
III twain. one section chatting expectantly
On rows of chairs, the other wrangling and
eager in a green-room to which the house
vardrobes were made tributary. Psyche's
aunt, quiet lady who scarcely impressed
one's memory, was made manager Of stage
properties
Miss Fawcett and Phoebe, who were to
appear as the captive Queen of Scots and
cne of her Marys, remained together, while
the rest Of their company went forth to
open the act.
When they had completed their own fan
tastic adornment they set down to wait, and
Psyche smiled at Phoebe.
These piles of old clothes look like the
wreck of generations. And that's what
they are. There's even my uncle's dress
ing-gown-the one l told you about, who ran
away. See," said Psyche, spreading out the
palm pattern, 'he burnt these holes with
some chemical stuff; they tell that he was
wonderful at chemistry. Of course it was
al before my time, and it doesn't seem as if
/ ever had such an uncle. But there's his
picture hanging over your head"
Phoebe stood up to look at it. It was in

obliged to dodge behind tree and skulk
from one tree to another in following up his
game, for he was not the boy to turn his
back in the midst of sport. Other shrunken
walnuts thumped the ground about Painter
or pelted him right heartily. He concluded
to come after his assailant: so just as the
boy laid the note down to break promising
clod into handy chunks, the shaggy man
lowered directly over him. He was away

Robert Hale, Secretary of the Board

The reporters have published too many

j. =. McGaughey-Free trade is a fall
lacy and protection is a fraud. High

and other results are purely commercial.

erS he means manufacturers, and takes

Judge Lars NJ. Rand-We are going to
find out what allied the Democratic
ballot box at NOrmanna fair, or know
the reason why.
A PrOhibitiOniSt-Ou idea in this
campaign is exactly the idea of the peo-
pie. We hope to build up our party on
the ruins of Republicans. The Demo-
cratic party will always live, the Re-
publican is sure 10 die and from its
ashes Prohibition will rise phenix-like
and soar to victory.
Freeman p. Lane-They can resolve

veItiOn of politicians that ever assem-
bled will in some manner show the pO-
litical status of aspiring candidates.
Any man who has favorite candidate
will on all occasions try to further that

harmonious convention was no eXcep-
ton. Everything that was done there
had for its ultimate object the further
ance of scheming politicians. There is

John d. Hayes, of Ashland, Wis,
hacker of Mike CoEley, the Ithaca

GLOBE forfeit of $3.50 in accepting
J0he p. Clows'S challenge to meet Con-
ley. The conditions are that Glow shall

stakeholder shall be chosen. and the

the fight will be arranged. In replying
TO CLOVIS challenge, COnley's hacker
says: Mr.. Glow has been making the
remark periodically that he was trying
to arrange a match with Conley. This.
to certain extent, is true, but when
called Oh TO face the music he always
had some other engagement on hand in
which there was more money. We Will
now make final offer to Mr.. Glow. If
he will not cover this deposit, why we
will fight him for marbles, chalk, fun or
anything in order tOscOnvinee him that
we can fight, and he can name the
style, number of rounds, etc. In fact
we will agree TO almost anything in
