Tammany's greedy eyes are glued to the

the chances Of getting Mr.. Pearson out are a
good deal better than they were. Mr.. Cleve-
lands rcappointmcnt of our Postmaster in
1885 was the index Of his devotion to Civil
Service reform. The removal Of Mr.. Pearson

bered no reason for the removal would have

Since the holocaust that swallowed mp 2h
human lives in the burning Of the Brooklyn
Theatre, in 1876, five Ncw-York theatres have
been visited by destructive fires. In every case
by the best of good fortune, the fire has broken
ont when the theatre was unoccuplcd' Inc
fire in the Union Square Theatre yesterday Is
the latest on the list and while not SO disastrous
rs the fires that consumed the Park standard
Windsor and Harrigan * Harris theatres, the
interior of the playhouse was damaged TO soch
an extent that its reconstruction Is made neccs-
sary. Clearly the rebuilding should be done IN
accordance with the stringent laws now on The
statutc-book The only theatre in The CITY
built under those laws is probably as sale as
such structure can be made. Great improve
ments in our theatres in point OF safety have
been accomplished in the last ten years STILL
if fire should occur while play was III
progress, the audiences in many of them would
probably have difficulty in getting out unhurt
Even were the danger not imminent, panic
would almost surely be prccipitatcd. II any
more theatres must burn it is to be hoped that
they viii do so when empty.

to the bill arc based on its alleged uhconstitu-

Whatever change occurred yesterday in the
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy strike seems
to have been in favor Of the company. num-
Der Of new engineers were secured and few
trains were run. An attempt was made to dam
age an engine, but no one believes that this was
sanctioned by the leaders of the strike or the
great body of strikers. Our dispatches indicate
that the trouble may be quickly settled. Some
OF the utterances of Chief Arthur show that he
was almost eOerced into giving his consent to
the strike. In view of the company's deter
mined attitude and its decision to retain all new
linen engaged, the strikers may see that the
part of wisdom is 10 yield, alter having had
their OWN way for few days.

The Legislature is behind in IFS worE-at least
the Assembly is The well-founded scare growing
out of the condition Of the ceiling of the Assembly
Chamber has served to render unavailable good
many days which ordinarily are fully occupied
The consequence is that, although two months Of
the session are gone, little progress has yet been
made IN clearing the calendar of the really i'm
portant measures Of the year. The High License
bill, for example, has been reported, but has not
been considered in Committee of the Whole And
some Of the other bills in which everybody is
interested have not Jared even well as that

White Swelling.

Mr NJ. S. Hamlin, one of the best known
Insurance men in North Carolina, writes
from Winston, as follows: " Ever since
was seven years OF age l have had what
the doctors call hip disease, and which l
call white swelling. Ny hip was drawn
out of place. There was a swelling at the
knee-ioint, where there is a profuse run
ming, which has been there for years. OF
course this has greatly depleted my sys-

did me good until took S. S. s. use it

giving me appetite and digestion, and ena-
bles me to stand the long, trying, ener-
waiting, hot summer days. To me there is
no such medicine for purifying the blood
and building up the wasted system as

Industrial Development.
Felloo- Citizens of Jefferson Coun-

FELLOW Citizens of Jefferson CouR-
IT,:
Looking especially to the indus
trial development of this section of
the State. and to our county of JEFF
ferson in particular, will it not be
well for us, at once, to respond to
the invitation of the Chamber of
Commerce of the City of Wheeling,
and send delegates to the Industrial
Convention to assemble there on the
10Th of February, of which there is
notice elsewhere in this paper?
suggest, therefore, that the farm
ers and other business men of each
neighborhood in this county, assem-
BILE at their respective business CEN
tres and select delegates who will
attend the Wheeling Convention.
The New South is the theme
of the industrial journals of this
country and Europe to-day, but the
attention ofcapital is called through
them exclusively to those sections
whose people have the wisdom and
energy to properly set forth their
own peculiar local advantages. To
this object each citizen should con-
tribute his share of the time and
money necessary to ensure success.
1t takes both time and money, but
not much from any one individual
if the whole community enters, as it
should into the spirit of the move
ment. 1t is in vain to complain of
hard times; there is no miraculous
deliverance from it, and the only
way to get rid of hard times is to
use intelligent methods to make
times better.
There is no part of the New
South" richer in agricultural re-
scources than Jefferson county, but
these resources will never be utilized
in local manufactures which are ne
cessary in order to retain the wealth
they are capable of producing, un-
less the people of Jefferson move,
with intelligent organized effort, to
bring about such result.
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company has announced round-trip
tickets, at reduced rates, to this Con-
vention, and may be induced to do
even better, as this Convention will
no doubt stimulate business that
will bring thousands of dollars in
freights to their road.
Let us call meeting of citizens
of Charlestown and neighborhood,
to meet at the Court House this week
to send delegates TO the Wheeling
Convention, and to organize a per-
manent Local Developme mt Associa-
ton.
Respectfully,
B. G.. WASHINGTON.

Their Business Booming.

Probably no one thing has caused
such a general revival of trade at
Geo. L. Lights drug store as their
giving away to their customers Of so
many free trial bottles Of DR.. King
New Discovery for Consumption.
Their trade is simply enormous in
this very valuable article from the
fact that it always cures and never
disappOints. Coughs, Colds, Asth-
ma, Bronchitis, Group, and ali throat
and lung diseases quickly cured.
You can test it before buying by
getting a trial bottle free, large size
81. Every bottle warranted.

Brace Up.

You are feeling depressed, your
appetite bad, you are bothered with
headache, you are fdgetty, nervous,
and generally out of sorts, and want
to brace up. Brace up, but not with
stimulants, spring medicines or bit
tiers, which have for their basis very
cheap, bad whisky, and which stimu-
late you for an hour, and than leave
YOU in a worse condition than before
What you want is an Alternative that
will purify your blood, start healthy
action of Liver and Kidneys, restore
your vitality, and give renewed
health and strength. Such a medi-
cine you will find in Electric Bitters
and only so cents a bottle at George
T. Lights drug store.
