what win We Do with Them:


1t is reasonable to anticipate that
there will be an increasing attend
ance of students at the University
as the institution grows older The
doors have been opened to the ladies,
and if our experience is the same as
at other institutions, in few years
there will be as many ladies as male
students in attendance. In other
words the number of students will
be doubled. We will probably have
from four to five hundred students
here in the next two or three years.
1t would not be strange if we had
six or eight hundred If all the
young men and women of West Vir-
ginia are here who ought to be in
her University, we will have fully
that number.
The question arises what is the
town going to do with them? The
Board of Regents has not seen pro-
per to make any provision for board
ing and lodging these students, and
the responsibility is thrown entirely
upon the town. The accommoda-
tions which can be furnished in pri-
vate families will not be sufficient to
meet the demand if there is the an
ticipated increase in the attendance.
1t is probable that there will be
difficulty in guartering all the stu
dents this year 1t is probable that
there are not accommodations for a
dozen lady students in town. For
some unexplained reason people pre-
fer male to female boarders. They
give the boys the first chance, alto
gether it is certain in advance, that
the best boy will give more trouble
than the worst girl. He will do
more damage to the furniture; make
more noise; eat more, and in every
way be more expensive boarder
than the girl.
Maybe our people will find this
out by-and-by, but at present the
lady bodrder is at discount
Peck's Bad Boy has a better show
than she
While the matter of providing
quarters for the students is not one
for which the town is bound to as
sumo responsibility, yet our people
feel an interest in it beyond any
pecuniary consideration. They de-
sire to see the University prosper,
and to have all the students who
come here, comfortably cared for.
But if our people want, for any
reason, to continue to supply the
students with board and lodging
theIe will have to be movement
made in this direction befare the
next year has passed; otherwise the
Board Of Regents, at it's next ses-
sion, will have to take the matter in
hand and erect a large dormitory
for the purpose.
An opportunity is now open for
one or more citizens to establish
themselves in a good business by
opening buildings for this purpose.
Fit is delayed the opportunity will
lost. There is no more promising
business enterprise in this town than
would be the erection of summer
hotel to be used as winter board
ing house.

Representative Breckenridge, OF
Kentucky, like majority Of the
Democrats of the House, is opposed
to a called session of Congress from
personal reasons. He thinks, how
ever, that the result of an extra SEES
sion would be damaging to the Re-
publicans. Hence he hopes that one
will be called. "For," said he, 'to
have discordant elements close to-
gether is an element Of weakness"
He says he does not think the Re
publicans will have any difficulty in
organizing the House. Being in the
. minority the Democrats would not
make themselves disagreeable where
there was no good in it. He did not
think either that there would be so
much of fight over the contested
election cases. AS to the usefulness
of the session he based his opinion
upon the assumption that the Re
publicans would give up the attempt
to unseat Democrats when they
found that the minority was too
strong to submit to partisan injus-
tice. This same partisan injustice
will not be permitted to unseat the
fairly elected Congressman from
West Virginia.

Malone held the Virginia Repub-

self. In fact no politician would
want soldier convention than Ma
hone had. He got there for the
head of the ticket and showed the
opposition faction of the party that
he was doing things in there at that
time. Malone is great for being
nominated for office but generally
feels dull and aching void after
elections. The same fate awaits
him this time. The ticket is: For

Separate Municipal EiectionA

Without venturing to decide which
plan is the more desirable, we think
there is no longer any doubt in any i'm
partial mind as to the need Of the pro-
posed separation. There can be no inn
provement in our municipal govern
ment, no relief from the extravagant
and oftentimes corrupt expenditures
which make life in our cities SO enor-
mously expensive, until we bring the
mass OF voters to the comprehension OF
two points: First. that it is playing into
the hands OF the men who make their
living out of politics to allow National
and State political considerations to
enter into the choice Of municipal off,
GERS; secondly, that the burden of taxa
ton is not borne by the rich alone. but
largely by the poor. The voters must
think when they are deciding how they
will vote. not as to what the effect oil
their ballot will be on candidate for
Governor or President. but upon mu-
nicipal taxation, schools, police, paw.
ing, lighting, STRENGTHENING, sewerage,
docks.
