''Do you believe in third party
politics, Edmundg" asked Matilda,
as the two sat in the parlor talking
about things in a non-committal
sort off way, while the mosquitoes
bumped their bills against the fly
screens in the window in vain en-
deayors to get in where the light
was.
"No, Matilda, 1 do not" replied
Edmund very decidedly; 81 be-
ieve that third parties are worse
than useless. They are a hinder
ance to the progress of events"
And then Matilda's mother,
who had been sitting quietly with
in hearing distance, softly stole
out of the room and went away
somewhere, hot knowing that they
hadn't referred to her at all.

DECREASE IN IMMIGRATION.

1t will be pleasing to the general
public to know that there has
been great falling off in immi.
grafton during the first six months
of this year. AS compared with
last year the decrease is 65,647:
for the total arrivals from January
1, 1889, to July 1, were 173,67S,
while for corresponding period
last year the number was 239,325.
If the decrease for the next six
months be as great as for the past
half year. there will have been
fewer immigrants to the United
States during 1889 than during
any year for the past ten years.
The people Of this country will
not grieve over this great decrease,
but will hope that what is lost in
quantity will be made up in
quality, The immigration for the
past few years has been an indis-
eriminate lot of foreigners, good,
band and Indifferent, and the little
check that is now shown in the
number of arrivals is quite agree
able, to say the least.
One cause for this change is the
fact that there are less induce
ments held out for foreigners to
come to this country than there
were few years ago when there
were many great tracts of desirable
land to be taken up. And. be-
sides, the action of congress in
passing laws restricting immi-
grants has shown them that the
great influx of foreigners is alarm
ing the people, and as hearty
welcome as heretofore will not
be extended them. Another cause
is the extraordinary inducements
held out to emigrants by South
American countries. Probably
thousands of persons have gone
south who would otherwise have
come to the United States.
Upon the whole, there is little
reason for the people of the United
States to regret this falling off, and
there are but few who would OBJ
ject to as good showing, if not
better, being made Tor the next
six months as for the past.

Gas an Established Institution.

Before a year has passed nearly
every house in this town will be
heated with gas. There will be no
return to COAL Gas is so far super
Tor as fuel for heating that when
it has once been tried, people will
try every device to escape return
to coal.
Moreover, we have not yet begun
to apply gas to many uses to which
it will be put. 1t will be running
factories for US before. long.
The next step is for water works.
The town ought to own it's own
works. 1t is able to put in the plant
and ought to so. We can better af-
ford to pay small tax for plant
and be done with it, than to pay a
large tax to private company for
all time to come.
But if the town wont act, we hope
the private company will. We want
the water. We won't be satisfied
without it.

A Successful Merchant.

Mr.. William X. Gillespie, for TWEEN
ty-two years past connected with the
wholesale grocery house Of Allen
Kirkpatrick & Co., Pittsburg, and
for the last eight years managing
partner of the firm, has Withdrawn
from that house and located at 1910
and 1912 Penn avenue, in the whole
sale grocery trade. His many friends
in this section will no doubt be sur
prised to hear of the change, as he
was looked upon as permanently To-
Gated. But the unexpected often
happens, and now that Mr.. Gillespie
has house of his own, we feel sure
that the same close attention to bus
mess, courtesy, strict integrity and
energy which has characterized his
business career in the past will bring
success in the future, and we can
very cordially recommend him as in
every way worthy of the patronage

The BROWN Guards Reioiclne.

In answerto our inquiry last week as
to what had become of the Brown
Guards, we were informed that they
were awaiting the fate of the military
bill at the uncertain hands of our
State legislators.
The bill was passed, and it is
most commendablc of the legisla-
ture that it was. 1t is intended
to encourage the military spirit
among the citizens, which spirit is
very pronounced, as without any APP
preparation Companies have been
formed all over the State which are,
indeed, very creditable military or
CARNATIONS.
Gov. Wilson is deserving of praise
for the passage of the military bill,
as to his strenuous and unceasing
efforts is the credit due for the State
appropriation.
The Brown Guards have been ac-
corded the honor of being by far the
best company in the State Each
and every member is filed with the
military spirit and anxiety to excel.
With the best Of commissioned Off
GERS thoroughly versed in the tactics,
and though the company was organ
lied at the eleventh hour, SO to speak,
for admission to the First Regiment,
it soon outstripped every other COM

Next Monday night the business
ssn Of this town will meet at the
court house With View TO taking
such action as Is best calculated TO
attract capitalists TO the place for
an Industrial utilization Of our nat
ufal gas. II is desired that business
men Of all classes of trade be pres
ent and aid in this commendable
work A regular association is like
IL to be formed for the purpose Of
booming the old town and to herald
our latest and best acquisition to
the world at large. Inducements
can then be made to those who are
seeking locations for manufactures
which no place can excel. Articles
will be drafted setting forth our
natural resources and vast mineral
wealth, which will be spread over
the country broadcast.
This is a step which is on the
right road to enriching the town.
We want foreign capital to help US
develop that which We have in such
abundance in its raw and natural
state. This is, also, the time when
such action should be taken, as the
gas makes the inducement even four
fold.
The town council will assuredly
concur with the measures which the
business men will adopt. Look
around and ask yourself If there is
business man in Morgantown but
who will do his utmost to the further
prosperity of the town. They seem
to have suddenly come to realize
what is now possible for the place
and now propose that no efforts of
theirs shall be lacking to make Nor
gantown the fourishing city that we
all hope to see her become. OF
course the council will concur in
their action.
No one who has the welfare of
Morgantown at heart should be alb
sent from this meeting; indeed, we
don't think there will be. Let every
body be present at this great boom
meeting, for it will be through the
efforts Of those present that money
will be brought for our material de-
velopment.
We want factories; the business
men are going to bring them. We
want our gas utilized by foreign cap
ital; the business men will cause
such state of affairs to be, and soon
Morgantown will not simply be the
"seat of learning Of the State, but
far better, the city Of industry and
wealth of the State. This time we
are not indulging in any idle boats.
We are stating what is possible and
very sure to be. All come to the
meeting and see and hear and talk
for this substantial boom.
