We call the attention of the officers
whose duty it is to see that parties sell.
ing liquor to Indians are arrested and
prosecuted according to law, and that
parties bringing dressed beef into Phoebe
or other places in the county BE- required
to bring the hides along with such
dressed beef, and that parties selling Ii.
quor by the glass without retail license
be required to take out license for that
kind of business.
We find there are several shafts close
to public highways that should be filled,
or secured in some manner so as not to
endanger the life or property of the trav.
cling public, particularly shaft near the
Bowery mine. We recommend THAT the
Chief of the Fire Department see that
all inflammable material and rubbish of
any kind be removed from the premis es
Of individuals in the town Of Phoebe.
This being all the business before this

to be discharged.

Public Buildings Committee to the
Foreman of the Grand Jury.
Sir: Your committee appointed On
public buildings beg leave to report as
follows:
We find the Court House, including
the departments therein, in very good
condition but the roof needs considerable
repairing and the fire walls needs some
protection from the weather and the
water pipes that lead from the roof need
repairing, so they may conduct the
water away from the foundation of the
building. On examining the Jail we
lind the sanitary condition good, but the
building very much out of repair. The
place through which the prisoner es.
capped, not repaired. and many other
parts of the walls very weak. We re-.
commend the County Commissioners to
examine the foundation of the Jail and
see it it does not need some support and
If ditch is necessary at the back part.

JoNks RlDex, Fcb. g Your eorres-
pendent took flying trip through Nor
gan into Clinton district recently. We
had the pleasure Of visiting the Wood
land, Highland, McBee and Mt. Pleas
ant schools, in Clinton, and the Dellslcw
school in Morgan district. Prof. J. f.
Chips is now welding the birch sue
cessfully at Woodland. John is a very
popular teacher G. J. Howell is much
loved by his pupils at Highland, and
other places where he has taught. Mr..
Williams is a pleasant and agreeable
gentleman. At his request we delivered
an address to his school, (the McBee,)
which received respectful attention. Ex
County Superintendent vandervort is
teaching the Mt. Pleasant school. He
is one OF Monongalia's best teachers.
We gave his pupils some good advice,
at his request, which was listened to
with close attention The Dellslow
school, taught by NJ. d, Breakiron, we
visited ON the afternoon of Feb. 20. 1t
is unnecessary for us to commend Mr..
Breakiron as a teacher. The fact that
he is teaching this school the sixth sue
cessive term, speaks volumes for his abil-
ity and success. We had the pleasure
OF making few remarks TO his quiet and
orderly school, and received pressing
invitation to attend its closing exercises,
the 30th of March, which we you'd glad
~ do, if it were convenient.
During this trip we called on many old
friends. who treated us with much kind
ness, among whom were Alfred Cobun
and lady, Frank Kerns and family, with
whom we had the pleasure Of spending
one night, Mrs. Mary Howell, Miss Sal
lie Howell, Ben G, Dorsey and lady, n.
G. vandervort and lady, Mrs. Bailey,
Thos. Gray and family, Miss Tanzey,
Vim. Jennings and lady, Mr.. Israel Jen-
nings and lady, Mrs. VIM. Howell, Luth-
err Howell, Henry Dunaway and family
and many others.
We had the pleasure ofattending Bible
class at Pleasant Hill on the 18th, at 10
a. M. and Of trying to preach for them
at 8 p. m. We are deeply indebted to
the brethren and sisters at this place for
their loving kindness toward us.
We had the pleasure of dining at
Father Lewis Runners where we were
treated with the utmost kindness and
consideration. We spent few moments
at the residence of Lewis Runner jr.,
where we were made to feel at home by
him and his excellent lady We supped
at the hospitable mansion OF Pindall
Burbridge, where we were entertained
most charmingly by our host and hostess.
Saturday night and Sunday night we at
tended the series of meetings conducted
at Rock Forge by Rev, Mr.. Ford. The
meeting closed ON Sunday night with
one conversion and accession TO the

The defeat 81 tie Co Educational
bill in the Senate wae inistake A
majority Of the people Or this State
demand that the girls be given the
advantages afforded BY the Universi-
ty. 1t might not be we'll to invite
the ladies TO Morgantown now, on
account Of the difficulty of securing
suitable boarding places, but that
objection should have been promptly
met by the Legislature by liberal
appropriation for the purpose Of
building dormitories. The State
wisely spends good sum yearly for
the support Of the University, and
it offers opportunities for Instruction
unexcelled anywhere, and adequate
provisions arc made for the accom-
mediation Of more than double the
number ofstudents that annually at.
tend. The young man Of this State
who fails to take advantage of this
excellent opportunity. is alone to
blame; the State gives 1t to him
practically free of cost But the
ambitious young lady is denied these
privileges for no good reason as we
can see. We are aware that there
are some nice drawn, fine-spun OBJ
jections to co-education, which are
founded in prejudice, and cannot be
reached by logic. To all those hold
ing such opinions we would advise
keeping their daughters from mixed
schools, but why deprive daughters
of other gentlemen, who have no such
notions, from attending our State
University, if they desire? The dog
in-the manager policy should not be
applied to education; and the adj
vantages afforded by the State should
be free to all it's citizens without re-
gard to sex. Co education has work
ed well In the Normal schools. For
years past the school here has had
an average attendance of nearly two
hundred ladies and gentlemen, and
nothing has occurred to warrant an
objection to the system. The same
is true of every other branch Of the
Normal Schools. What has succeed
ed here would not fail at Morgan
town. The people are in earnest
about this matter. 1t is question
that will not down. 1t will not be
delayed longer than two years, for
we are convinced that no false no
tions, handed down from other times,
will be able much longer, in this
practical age to stem the strong tide
Of popular favor. education is
coming, and then the University will
boom. -Inder.

:
Col. doe Snider.

OOhs 9Oc SMAueEs
Col. Joe Snider is entitled to the
commentator not only of his i'm
mediate constituency, but of the
whole State.
But he wont get it.
He is entitled to the credit of pur-
suing the most statesmanlike course
in the last Legislature of any mem
Der of his party.
But he won't get it.
Col. Snider is not of our way OF
thinking in party politics, but that
does not render US blind to the mer-
its of an honest representative, nor
to the mean and contemplate spirit
in which his conscientious and
statesmanlike course has been re-
garded by some small fry politicians
at home and at Charleston.
When the Legislature was about
to adjourn and it was discovered
that the motion to extend the session
would be defeated, and that conee-
quently nearly the whole work of the
session would be lost, Col. SpideI
made the sensible motion that in
stead of adjourning sine die, they
should adjourn to future time tc
be fixed by the Legislature.
| If this motion had carried the
work Of this Legislature could have
been token up, where it was laid
down, when the Legislature met
again; but otherwise all bills would
die with the close of the session. II
was simple expedient to save hun
dreds Of dollars to the State, and
prevent many measures of general
value to the State from being killed
outright.
Probably no reader who is not d
"thick and thin politician" can an
derstand why so reasonable a propo-
sition should be voted down; but il
was-the Democrats voted solid fol
the motion, and the Republicans
except Col. Snider-solid against
it.
To discover the milk in the Re-
publican cocoahut, it is necessary to
understand that they had laid plan
to get up little anarchy about the
4th of March by way of aiding COTS
contest for the Governorship, and
they didn't want the Legislature
there Of thereabouts.
Nevertheless if the contest for the
Governorship is to be determined by
legal methods, it is absolutely neces-
sary for the Legislature to meet
sometime in May, and determine it;
for it is the only body authorized to
do so. When it has assembled for
that purpose, according to Col. Sni-
der's idea, it might as well continue
in session until it has disposed OF
the unfinished work of the session
just closed.
No man who is not utterly blind
to every patriotic duty and who puts
his party above every other consid-
Grafton would hesitate moment to
say that Col. Snider's motion should
have passed by unanimous vote.
But we believe that Col Snyder was
the only Republican who voted fol
it.
And IL you want to get an opinion
of this statesmanlike course, just
call on some of the small-fry poll
| ticians that run things hereabouts
whats in name?' We mean +
long name. Door, Harr and Carr
are little four-letter fellows, but NJ
one will say but that this festive trit
| figured more conspicuously in thu
recent Senatorial contest than all th'

Spencer, Roane county, will be the
p0ssessor of the latest addition to
West Virginia's public institutions.
The additional appropriation for the
building of the asylum at that place
has been made and the work on it
will begin this spring. The asylum
at Weston has for years been made
quate to the needs of the State, and
applications for admission to it have
IN many cases been refused when it
was real necessity that the patient
should be confined there. The new
asylum will make plenty of room,
and Spencer is to be congratulated
that 90 much good hard State lucre
is to assist in bringing her from the
rustic obscurity which she now en-
dures.
