The New City of Buena Vista

We have received and read with interest
a well-wTitten and Handsomely illustrated
pamphlet Of "a pages setting forth the re-
markable resources and advantages, the
enterprises, aud the future prospects of that
nascent city which is destined in the near
future to be a city of magnitude and beauty.
The property owned by the company pos
sesses all the clements necessary for the
support Of a thriving city-rich minerals,
fertile lands, abundant water power, plenty
of fine timber, healthful climate, picturesque
scenery, railroad facilities, sc. This pam
phlet is made up chiefly of articles written
By persons Of intelligence who had no
pecuniary interest there, but who were in
pressed with its merits after careful obser-
Walton and expressed the results Of their
impartial judgments.

NEW PLAN OF ORGANIZATION OF THE
REPUBLICAN PARTY.-The Valley Virgia-
ian in it's last issue published the new plan
of organic atom Of the Republican party of
Virginia, which went iuto effect on the LIST
of last January, but is does not approve it,
and says:-
eve publish it that Republicans through
out the State may see it, and understand
why it is that self respecting men, and Re-
publicans who believe in the principles of
he party aud the benefcent effects of Re-
publican policies upon the interests of the
country, cannot and will not submit to any
such hnmiiiating and arbitrary powers as
are conferred upon precinct, county, dis

In the course of the next few days it is
probable that Congress will be engaged in
a lively debate over the Wilson bill, which
has been favorably reported by the Senate
Judiciary Committee. The object of the
Wilson bill is to prevent the importation OF
liquor into prohibition States. It recognizes
the power of every State to prohibit, regu-
late, control, or tax the sale and transporta-
ton of liquor. The measure is of course
intended to meet the recent Supreme Court
decision concerning the shipment and sale
of original packages of liquor in prohibi-.
rtion State. The majority report in favor oil
the bill argues that it is clearly within the
power of Congress to grant permission to a
State to exclude any article of traffic which
its citizens have declared to be dangerous
and injurious. A minority concurrent re,
port signed by Senator George expresses
the opinion that the States, under the Con
stitutioD, have the power sought to be con-
ferred by the bill, but in view of the deci
sion of the Supreme Court, erroneous though
it appears to be, the States must depend up
on the action of Congress until the cour,
shall reverse its Judgment. So the whole
business brings up an interesting question
. of State rights. When the debate comes
| off the friends of Capitalization and the be
levers in State sovereignty will collide
while the anti-prohibition members will sal
in with gloves. The Wilson bill will maxi
music in the air.-Richmond State.

NOT AT ALL FOR THE WORKIN6NAN.--
The Baltimore San says that. in Congress
on Wednesday last, "there was sensation
al incident arising out of the queer idea of
Mr.. Walker, Massachusetts manufacturer
and fanatical proteetionist, that maaufac-
tursrs ask for higher duties for the bene-
fit of their employees. "The workingman
got," he said, "every dollar of the increase
of price of goods on account of the tariff"
His beautiful simplicity excited good deal
of merriment. Mr.. Mills called his atten-
ton to the fact that the present tariff gives
the manufacturer protection to the extent
of $672 ton on pig-iron, the entire cost Of
the labor in which is but 81 25. Mr.. Mills
gave another example of protection that
somehow never got further than the en-
ployer. How is it, he asked, that labor gets
but So a ton for producing ton of steel
rails, while the government gives the manu-
facturer SIT ton? Nothing is more absurd
than to say that the protective tariff is
meant to benefit the workingman. If that
were the case tariff bills would require in so
many words that employers shall give en-
ploYes an increase of wages exactly proper
toned to the increase of price due to the
tariff rate. But tariff bills all omit that"

GILBERT AND SULLIVAN SEPARATE
Gilbert and Sullivan the joint authors of
'Pinafore" and other popular operettas are
Sat OUTS
It is stated that Gilbert has signed part
nership with Alfred Collier, and they will
begin Immediately to write comic opera.
Sullivan is expected to collaborate with
George r. Sims.
In their productions, Gilbert wrote the
lbrettos and Sullivan composed the music.
The Richmond State surmises that
"while it is not probable that their new
partnerships will result in anything equal
to the works which have given them such
popularity, it is likely that Gilbsrt's humor
will carry his work on more successfully
with poor musical accompaniment than will
Sullivan's fine music get on with poor
libretSo."

BOAmS, Desirable and Undesirable.

BO0ms. Desirable and Undesirable.
In its discussion of booms, the Richmond
Times of the 18th inst, concludes it's article
as follows -
SIN the general judgment of booms, one
important distinction should be drawn. A
boom which originates in community,
and which finds its only support in the
speculative spirit prevailing IN that com.
munity, is to be earnestly deprecated. All
the chances are that it will end in inflicting
the gravest injury upon every form OF
material interest, by creating an unjustifi-
able expansion of values, to be followed by
an inevitable collapse. A boom, however,
which is sustained by the influx of outside
capital is a boom which, if not carried to
an extreme point can do only good. 1t will
attract the attention of the outside world
to an ever-increasing degree, and in at
tracing this attention, it will draw to the
locality where it occurs a growing stream
of immigrants with wealth and various in
dustrial interests.
The remarkable material activity now
prevailing in SO many parts of Virgins
| rests upon more substantial basis than il
generally supposed, not only because the
resource, of the State are SO enormous anc
as yet SO undeyeloped, but also because 81
very large a proportion of the capital nov
being employed to turn these resources tt
| account is from communities outside of the
State. IF this capital were drawn from
| Virginia alone there would be Imminent
danger of a reaction that would be ATTENDED
| by the gravest disasters -

The Philadelphia Ledger (Rep.) has al
WAYS been sincere aud Consistent advocate
of the protective policy, and is strictly loyal
to it's principles; but it also believes 10 con-
stitutional methods and the observance of
recognized parliamentary usages in the en-
actmeut of legislation and it has not failed
to condemn and Iebuke the revolutionary
proceedings of the present House whenever
occasion served. Referring TO Mr.. McKin-
ley's refusal to allow Mr.. Mcmillan to read
to the House on Wednesday Speaker Reeds
old time opinions on the subject of limiting
tariff debate, the Ledger charges that his
refusal was prompted by the reflection that
whsn MIR. Reed was one of the minority he
strenuously protested against such gag laws
as he has nov carried to an extreme.
The Ledger adds: ''Tbe Republicans have
determined to push their Tariff Bill through

In his speech in the U. S. House of Rep
resentatives on the 18Th, Mr. Buttsrworth,
of Ohio, ultra republican as he is, opposed
the pillaging tariff bill now before that body,
and said he 'knew of an industry that had
been able to declare $50, 900, 600 dividends
on capital of 81, 100000. The country
eonld, in such cases, better afford to keep
these men at the Fifth Avehue Hotel, pay
their board and expenses, and set them up
in the banking business. He favored prop
er protection; but these men held the world
in their grip" They don't hold the world,
but they certainly do hold the poor people
of this country in their grip. But the most
wonderful thing about their grip is the fact
that though the voters Of the country have
the power to loosen and cast it off, they ap-
parently are not aware of it, and refuse to
do so.-Alec. Gazette.

MANY A LIFE

LAS been saved by the prompt use Of
IL Ayers Pills. Travellers by land or
sea are liable to constipation or other
arrangements of the stomach and bowels
which, if neglected, lead to serious ana
often fatal consequences. The most surs
means of correcting these evils is the use
of Ayers Cathartic Pills. The pru-
dent sailing-master would as soon go to
sea without his chronometer as without
a supply of these Pills. Though prompt
and energetic in oNaration, Ayers Pills
leave no i'll effects they are purely
vegetable and sugar-coated the safest
medicine for old and young, at home or
abroad.
"For eight years 1 was afflicted with
constipation, which at last became so
bad that the doctors could do no more
for me. Then l began to take Ayers
Pills, and soon the bowels recovered
their natural and regular action, so that
now am in
