MoRGANTowN VIRGINIA, SATURDAY,
Honesty and Intelligence.
It pays to be honest you say.

~ pays ~ uS Aoucst ou say.
Granted.
Yet how many are dishonest
through ignorance, cxpediency or
Intentionally. One can be dishon-
est and yet say nothing.
A clerk who lets = customer buy
a damaged piece of goods, witness
who holds back the. truth which
would clear prisoner, a medical
practitioner who takes his patients
money when he knows he is doing
him no good,-all are culpably dis
honest.
Speaking of the dishonesty of
medical men reminds us that only
the past week there has come under
our personal observation a form Of
dishonesty which is almost too mean
for narration.
1t is generally known that doctors
bind themselves by codes, resolu-
tions and oaths not to use any adj
vertised medicines. Now there is q
medicine on the market which, for
the past ten years, has accomplished
a marvellous amount of good in the
cure Of Kidney and Liver diseases,
and diseases arising from the de-
rangement of these great organs
we refer to Warmers Safe Cure. So
widespread are the merits of this
medicine that the majority of the
doctors of this country know from
actual evidence that it will cure.
Advanced Kidney Disease which is
but another name for Bright's Dis
ease.
The medical profession have put
themselves on record as admitting
that there is no cure for this terri
BILE malady, yet there are physicians
base enough and dishonest enough
to procure Warmers Safe Cure in
surreptitious manner, put the same
into plain, four ounce walls. and
charge their patients 50 per vial,
when sixteen ounce bottle of the
remedy, in it's original package, can
be bought at any drug store in the
world for slips.
Perhaps the doctor agues that the
cure of the patient justifiee his dis
honesty, yet he will boldly stand up
ut the next county medical meeting
and denouncc Warmers Safe Cure as
patent medicine, and one which he
cannot and will not use.
The fact is the people are waking
up to the truth that the medical pro
fession is far from honest, and that
it does not possess monopoly of
wisdom in the curing of disease, doc
toring the many symptoms of kidney
disease, instead of striking at the
seat of disease--the kidneys them
selves, ALLOWING patients to die rath-
cr than use a remedy known to be a
specific, simply because it has been
advertised, and when patients are
dead from advanced Kidney Disease,
still practice deception by giving the
cause of death in their certificates
pneumonia, dropsy, heart disease, or
somess other accompanying effect of
Bright's Disease.
All this is prima .faeie evidence
of incompetency, bigotry and dis
honesty.
We speak but the truth when we
say that Messrs. FL. ii. Warner a.
Co. have done most philanthropic
work for the past ten years in edu
eating the people up to the maladies
growing out of diseases of the Kid
ney and Liver and are deserving Of
all praise for their honesty and
straightfowardness in exposing

The State Reform School.

The passage of an act providing
for the establishment of State Re-
form School is piece Of Legislation
that must reflect great honor upon
the legislature; and Senator Price,
who prepared and introduced the
bill, should regard his labors in be-
half of this new institution of the
State soon to be established, as the
best and most patriotic of his public
services. About one hundred thous-
and dollars is the annual appropria-
tion Of this State to pay criminal
charges, which sum is equal to more
than one-fourth of the entire annual
appropriation. and when you add to
this the amount required to pay the
annual expenses of the State hospit-
al for the insane there is the enor-
nous sum Of over two hundred thous-
and dollars-more than half of the
entire annual appropriation to be
paid out Of the State treasury for all
purposes.
The establishment of the reform
school must be regarded as in the
direction Of the very best State poll
cy and wisdom. The usefulness of
the Institution will soon become
manifest in numerous directions. 1t
will he in the interest of economy to
prevent the increase of crime by TAX
ing the juvenile criminals, and boys
who have become incorrigible SO far
as the ordinary restraints of the
home and the public school are con-
ccrned, and placing them under prop
err discipline, wholly removed from
all vicious associations, and giving
them that moral, intellectual and
Industrial training which will fit
them to earn an honest living and
tins aiding them to become useful
members of society. The annual
appropriation for the State Reform
School is, therefore, measure of
public economy. rather than charge
upon the people
II is in the interest Of popular ed
ucation. There always will be a
small number Of boys that can never
be brought under the influences OF
the public schocls--not even under
the most strict compulsory system.
By its power to take charge of this
class Of boys, the reform school sup
plements the work of the public
school, and thus becomes a part of
the great system OF popular educa-
tion provided by the State. The
Institution promises good, and moth
ing but good to the State. School

Warmers Log Cabin Remedies
old fashioned, simple compounds,

fathers, are "old timers" but cold
reliable" They comprise

ssTHEY SAW THE PRESIDENT
The Short But Not. Easy Road to Fame
In the Countly's Capital.
Chicago Inter- Ocean.


1t is very interesting to find out
who are really great people and who
are not. Down at Washington they
have way Of getting time dis
count on the decision Of history, and
learning every morning what years
alone determine for the rest of US.
There a man is considered pretty
well assured of getting his name in
the encyclopedia and monument at
public expense when the moment
seems ripe for it, if he only gains
access to the President. Observing
persons have noticed that frugal
newspapers keep certain line
standing" to save type-setting.-
The line is:
"THEY SAW THE PRESIDENT
1t is also noticed with disquietude
by thousands who have friends in
Washington that the list of gentle
men with laureated brows and petit
tions in their clothes is small and
short. 1t is not nearly so imposing
as the roster of honorary Vice Presi-
dents on the campaign mass-meeting
call. President Harrison in thus
discriminating for the sake Of get
ting time for his meals, is uninten-
tionally doing a great favor to the
country. We know whom to hurrah
for and how loud we ought to yell.
To see mans full name written
out in the United States census re-
ports of 1880, as is the case with
most of us, excites no enthusiasm,
but to see it follow the line above
quoted simply fixes things in our
minds with a firmness that can not
be made to totter by the cunning
sophistry for at least four days from
date.

Road Improvement.

The question of improving coun-
try roads has been under discussion
of late in almost every State in the
Union. Several Legislatures have
taken up the subject and in some
cases have enacted statutes looking
to the improvement Of old highways
and the building Of new ones upon
better principles of engineering
Much good, no doubt, will result
from this agitation, and the time
must be close at hand when greater
attention will be paid to the con
strnctien of highways than has
hitherto been the case.
Several organized bodies have
taken special interest in the discus
sion, and have collected data which
will be of great service in the future
in the way of locating roads and
making them better. One of these
is the Engineering Society of West
ern Pennsylvania, which has studied
the topography Of that portion of
that State and is in position to state
where roads should be located in or
der to secure the most direct routes
from point to point, the easiest
grades among the hills. and much
other information which in the past
has received little attention in the
construction of highways.
Another organization which has
studied this subject is the Society
of "Wheelmen," in Maryland and
adjoining States. This society has
in preparation book which will de-
scribe the most available roads be-
tween given points at various seasons
Of the year. For instance, the roads
between Baltimore and York, Pa,
ana their average condition in
spring summer and autumn will be
described, and the wheelmen will be
told in July which road is freest
from dust, in October which is freest
from mud, and at all seasons which
has the lowest grades and over
which the best time with the bicycle
can be made
1t will thus be seen that the mat
ter of road building is beginning to
have a widespread Importance. This
is the improvement which all others
from Maine to California need and
must undertake The great trouble
is how to meet the expense Of such
Improvement, but when the need is
once fully recognized American in
genuity may be trusted to devise the
way to its fulfillment.

There is more Catarrh in this sec
ton of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. Foi a great many years
Doctors pronounced it local dis
ease and prescribe for it local RENE
dies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounc-
ed it incurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be a constitutional dis
ease and therefore requires constitu-
tional treatment Halls Catarrh

IICK D0WELL's DOUBLE.
Application for His Release--A Suit for
Damages Threatened.

WESTON, w. VA, April 16.-Ap-
plication was made this afternoon tc
Judge Henry Brannon, of the Su-
preme Court, for a writ of habeas
corpus for the release of Shelton,
who was brought here from Dakota
supposed to be Dick Dowell. Judge
Brannon could not take action in the
matter, on account of having defend
ed Dowell, and Shelton will have to
remain prisoner until Judge Ben
nett returns from Nicholas county,
unless special messenger is sent to
that point to take necessary deposit
tions. Mr.. Shelton says he will in
stitute proceedings against the
State for damages if he is compelled
to remain in Jail that long.
ANOTHER DISPATCH.
The following dispatch was receiy-
ed from Weston last night:
The correspondent of the Register
did an injustice to T. G. Dawson and
M. j. Casey, who brought the sup
posed Dick Dowell, from Grand
Forks, Oak, when he stated the
prisoner, James Shelton, bears no re
semblance to Richard Dowell. A
great many of Dowell's intimate ac-
quaintance stated that he has many
striking features of the real Dowell.
His build, form and actions are those
of Dowell. While some claim Dow
ellis eyes are black and some blue,
the head is very much like Dowell's.
A petition for writ of habeas cor
pus will be applied for at once.
Dawson and Casey's action is uni
versally endorsed in bringing the
man here under all the circum-
stances.

In his letter Of acceptance General
Harrison said:
I'm appointments Of every grade
and department, fitness, and not par
ty service, should be the essential
and discriminating test, and fidelity
and efficiency the only sure tenure
Of office. Only the interests Of the
public service should suggest remov-
ais from Office"
But the heads Of departments
thought the old man didn't mean it
and they are slasbing rigat and left
with utter disregard Of the good Of
the public service.

; The itch for office is not confined
to the United States by any means.
Our English cousins are as hot after
positions in the public service as the
average Yankee, and it makes little
difference, apparently. what difficult
ties and dangers surround a post, so
long as the salary and the perquis-
ties are there. An English newspa-
per states that there were over one
hundred applicants for appointment
as consul in one of the West African
colonies, where the salary was SO, 900
and travelling expenses, and where,
as experience has shown, British
agents and officials do not live on
the average more than three or four
years.

The Washington Light Infantry
Of Charleston, S. c., are disguised
with the order of the authorities
having the New York centennial in
charge, that all such organizations
must take their places with the com
mon herd Of militia, instead of being
assigned places Of honor in the pa
rade, as they claimed Of right. The
Charleston soldiers say they will go
to New York, but will not take part
in the procession, preferring little
one of their own. There has been
lack of appreciation Of the holiday
soldiers shown in connection with
this centennial business that is posi-
lively heartrending.

more fitting location could have been
found in the State for this Assembly.
Families from our Eastern cities will
find this a cool, pleasant place to spend

The success OF similar associations,
notably the New York Chautauqua,which
in some respects started under less favor
