STATE POLITICS.
The Tariff and the Farmers - Candidates for
Supreme Jadge-Politcal Notes and
Gossip Of All Kinds

There are SignS-faint, indeed-but
there are signs, be it recorded, that il
has at last begun TO break upon the be-
logged intellectS OF u few Fourth Dis
trict Republicans that a Congressman
ought TO have capacity for
something besides guessing on
steers and polishing hardware. Here
comes the Huntington Commercial with
the following cruel stab NJ Judge Jack
sons acting substitute:
We conscientiously, and after having
made "a careful inquiry, believe that the
Republicans Of this district should accept
the situation as given by the present incum-
bent. Hon. &. W Smith. t. C., let him retire
from public life as Congressman. Hehas
SO frequently stated that he would not be
candidate for reelection, and having
failed 70 circulate his great speeches IN
Congress among the people he nor MS
friends can reasonably expect the same
support he received two years ago.
In another column the good CONNER
cial remarks i'm a tone Of almost ghoul-
ish glee, concerning the mention OF Hon.
j. r. Menager for the Republican NOM
nation;
Were he )Menager) in our National Leg
islature, be would represent and MAINTAIN
the interests Of his constituents with some
degree Of intelligence.
The REGISTER has no part or parcel
in the conflict, but as patriotic West

West Virginia has never experienced
more enthusiastic outpouringS of Democ-
racy than have occurred at nearly every
county convention that has been held
i'm this State this year. The mass meet
ings have been attended by hundreds
and unprecedented enthusiasm has been
displayed. At Clar6Sburg on WedneS-
day over 500 voters, nine-tenthS of them

gresham Pendleton At West Unions ON

agricultural county show that the farm
ers are beginning TO realize the true
source Of the evil which they are
suffering. An Ubiquitous tariff system
has burdcncd them with excessive taxa

uuremuncratiye. Farm lands are de-
crcaSiug in value and farm products

a distinction between the fine arts and what

must define liberal education as an edu-

The REGISTER yesterday chrOnicled the
various hearings in which Malissa Nc
Glumphrey figured before Justice Ankle,
in which Lucy Belmont and girl named
Flora Faulkner were witnesses for the
State. When she left the Justices office
Malissa vowed vengeance, and yesterday
morning she went before Justice Davis and
swore out two warrants for the women
above named, charging them with being
persons not of good fame. The arrests
were made. and the women were arraigned
and placed under a nominal bond of so,
and Malissa had scored another triumph.
About the time she got back from the
Justices Office, Melissa called on Mrs.
Ditty, one of her disreputable tenants, and
while there she came to grief. Just as she
had gotten comfortably settled in the house
Officers Shorts and Hell put in an appear
ance, with warrant for the arrest Of Mrs.
Ditty, charging her with keeping house
of i'll fame. Melissa attempted TO beat
retreat by jumping out of window, but
Officer Hell jumped out after her, and she
was brought back. The patrol wagon was
sent for, and Melissa, Mrs. Ditty and three
girls. inmates of the house. were driven to
the City Hall and locked up. There VIM.

called with counsel, and attempted to re-

and said that the greatest advancement
known in the history of civilization occur

how ignorance retarded progress, and went
on to show by citing number of instances
in history where ignorance, badly infu-

bloodshed He spoke clearly and distinct
~.
Mr. +. j. Roemer, of Bellaire, was the
last Of the class 10 speak and THE lncas OF

Of the Peruvians and their great advance
ment in the days of the lncas, and thought
that had they continued to exist TO the
present day the country would have been
equal 10 the United States, if not greatly
superior Mr.. Roamer spoke very rapidly,
but plainly and distinctly.
Mr. Campbell then introduced Lieut..
William Braunersreuther, L. =. ~, teach
or Of military tactics and mathematics, eX-
planning how the Linsly was fortunate in
securing his services. The Lieutenant
was down for an address. but he said he
didn't know Just what to say. so like the
commercial traveller he thought the best he
could do was to work for the benefit of the
house which he represented, in this case
the Liusly Institute. There are two bad
things in this rapid age. \ child is taught
To walk almost before the doe
tor gets out of the house.
As DR. Hamilton said to YOU the other
night, only one out Of five boys can pass
the physical examination 10 admit them 10
the army. What is the cause of this.
TOO EARLY DEVELOPMENT.
Education too early begun is disastrous to
the physical condition. Physical culture is
coming To the front We are trying at the
Institute TO see if we cannot get an addi-
tional building in which 10 establish gym
nasium, IL which some Of our boys can be
strengthened physically, so that their
minds will also be strengthened.
We don't want 10 make soldiers of the
BOYS in the Linsly military department.
II is the object to teach them to implicitly
comply with the orders given them, max
ing them obedient, and training their minds
20 obedience. BY the drill we have sue
ceeded also in Strengthening some Of them
up, and as you observed they now handle
the guns with ease.
The Lieutenant explained his coming and
work here. and hoped the work would be
encouraged. He thought the Linsly lnsti-
tute could be made one of the finest schools
in the country, anf as Wheeling is a very
wealthy place there is no reason ii should
not be made So People who
have Young sons TO send 10 school
should not send them abroad and away
from the home influence before they have
reached an age that their minds become
