P. B. REYNOLDS, A. NJ.

This department of the Univer-
sity is admirably conducted by
Rev. P. B. Reynolds, A. M. A
man whose moral and religious
characteri is beyond question; whose
ability as a teacher ranks alongside
the best instructors of the country /;
whose extensive knowledge of the
English language and wide range
of information concerning all the
languages that have played an i'm
portant part in the formation of
our language is not questioned by
any who are familiar with his teach
ing. In short his literary attain
ments are not excelled by many in
this country.
This school is one Of the most
important factors in the institution;
because an it are to be found the
elements upon which a thorough
education is built; because on it all
the other departments of perfect
and systematic intellectual devel-
opment depend.
The aim of this course is to
make the student well acquainted
first with the elements of English
philology, such as an historical
genealogical, and phonetic analy-
e;c re the Enolich lano,,aOe and
next, to inform him concerning the
history and Development Of our
language. At this stage of the
course the importance of Political
Economy, is presented by text
book and lectures. The last sub
ject pursued is thorough and ex-
tensive course in English litera-
ture in which various authors are
read and criticised.
Now, when the student has as

School of Anatomy, Physiology and
Hygiene.
7. w. HARTIGAN, M. d.

This department is an essential
adjunct to the University course.
During the first of the two years
required to complete this school
the studies of Zoology and St'ue-
twal Botany are pursued, and dur
ing the second, Human Anaton.y,
Physiology and Hygiene.
The department is presided over
by practical physician of ability
and experience. DIR. Hartigan, the
present incumbent, is a graduate
of both Cleveland and Bellevue
Medical Colleges, at each Of which
he graduated with high honors.
By competitive examination he was
appointed Ambulance Surgeon OF
Brooklyn Hospital, which position
he held until elected to the chair
of Medicine in the West Virginia
University.
Under his able supervision much
efficient work is accomplished and
all his instruction is practical and
plain, thorough and comprehen-
sive, inspiring and useful.
Practical work is done the first
year in skeletonizing animals and
cutting, staining and mounting mi
croscopical specimens.
During the second year human
subjects are provided for dissection
by the students, and the various
lectures, five of which are given
each week, are illustrated by mod
els, charts, specimens, and mana
kins. The dissecting room is large,
we'll ventilated and thoroughly
equipped, and much excellent ap-
paratus has been procured for the
use of students. Notwithstanding
the fact that during the past few
years the department has beer
widened and the work increased
and made more difficult, the mum
Der of students pursuing this branch
is larger than ever before. The

would think they were little out of

PROHIBITION IN IOWA.

UNLESS some solid work is done
in Iowa there will be Q change made
in the present prohibitory law Of
that state. The TIMES would be
pleased to see the united strength Of
the Third party turned over to, the
Republican party, as that might
prevent a radical change, The out
look now in that state favors q law
that will allow the people Of county
to govetn the question in the county,
and give high license to such coun-
ties as vote against prohibition. 1t
is difficult to tell just what will be
done if q re-submission should take
place, there is but little doubt that
the constitutional law would be- de-
feated if q vote was now taken. The
temperance people can never ex-
pect to be successful unless they can
unite solidly with one Of the old
parties, thus putting their founda-
ton broad and deep enough to con-
troll the nominations made in that
party.

CHEAP GOODS MAKE Low
WAGES.

The Democracy continually hold
up before their followers cheap
goods, a. the great question to be
considered and the only one which
is to effect their pockets. Neither
the Democratic speakers or writer's
tell the farmer or laboring man,
that if the prices Of goods, wares
and merchandise are lowered, that
it must cheaper labor. Besides the
home market must, to some extent,
be affected by it. Take wooden goods,
only as only as one example, on
which a revenue tariff of forty per
cent. is paid by foreign shippers

same wages to the wage Garner that

as the demand for goods from the

tries are admitted free. It must
curtail amounts as well as decrease
in the price. So thousands Of hands
would be thrown out Of work, which
will necessarily drive them into

CHANGE NECESSARY,

UNLESS . change Of tactics is
made the example of prohibition
will be one Of the past. The men

oil practical appearances abandoned
the cause by Withdrawing from the

TRUSTS.

IT is outright dishonesty for Dem

it has no more to do in this organi-
zation than the Democratic party.
The great object oftrusts is to scare
farmers and laboring men into an
opposition to q protective tariff
The solid truth is, the larger amount
Of capital used in the formation of
trusts, comes from the English and
the Democracy. 1t is safe to say
neither Of the old parties favor
trusts and combines. Trusts come
through individual capital owned
by men Of all parties and all nation
alities who come to the United States
to make money. 1t is q known fact
that the English have been doing all
they could to control the entire
manufacture and sale of beer and
ale, which would be q larger monop-
oily than that of coaloil. These
trusts, like the Credit Mobelier, are
the special pets Of men who care
nothing for party but wish to make
money, while the non.protective

CHEAP GOODS CHARM Us.

THERE is q charm about cheap
goods that captivates unthinking
men, penurious men and ignorant
men, and 1t Is remarkable that
they only see that side Of the ques-
ton. It is positive dishonesty in
politicians who talk on the ques.
ton never to examine into or dis.

but only hold up before the farmer

THE EFFECT OF THE INTER.
STATE LAW.

The complaints Of the business
men Of Kansas City, and other large
wholesale and manufacturing points
as to the action of the Interstate
commission, shows that the action
of tine commission in the regulation
Of freight prices, is working hard
ships to large cities, but is doing
great things for smaller places. The
effect has been such on Kansas City,
that every effort to build up the
steamboat carrying trade on the
Missouri river, is being made, to
force down the exhorbitsnt rates Of
the railroads. Under the workings
Of the Interstate law, small cities
are springing up in all directions,
where manufactures and Wholesale
men have great advantages over the
larger places, in that Of cheaper real
estate, lower rents and equal fscili'
ties in shipping freights. This In
ter-state law is bound to become
popular with the people As it will
,, lead to other great reforms in ths
department Of commercial transac
tons in the United States. 1t il
now observable that smaller place
where high freight rates have pre-
vented growth in business, are look
ing after their rights; 90 that the.
are being DEATH with fairly and b,
that means are becoming successful
competitors with large cities, wher
standard goods are largely in demsn

less the law needs some amendnsat
to make it just what it ought to b
