Theatre hats ain't always high,

And hayseed chaps are sometimes fiy.
In spite OF the funny man:
Her fathers dogs not always wild;
Sometimes You find well-bred child;
And motbers-in-law arc sometimes mild,
In spite of the funny man.
Psohibiticnists don't always yearn 20 drink,
In spite OF the funny man;
And the dude occasionally thinks think.
In spite of the funny man.
Chicago feet aint huge az all;
The plummer's bill - sometimes small;
The messenger boy don't always crawl.
In spite of tho funny man.
The poets don't have to live on air,
In spite Of the funny man;
Those front-row men sometimes have hair.
In spite Of tho funny man.
Sometimes brand new joke Il sprung;
Sometimes tho ballet girl Is young;
And sometimes wives are not all tongue,
In spite of the funny man.
Society girls at balls wear clothes,
In spite of tho funny man;
Sometimes man pays what he owes,
In spite of the funny man.
Sometimes the typewriter's plain In the face
Sometimes the deacon's not at tho race;
In fact the worlds quito decent place,
In spite of the funny man.

Crushed Stone the Best

The demand for better roads in
our country towns is opening up a
new industry to those who see in
the future q constantly Increasing
call for the material required in
their construction and the practical
experience Of hundreds Of years,
both in Europe and America, has
led to but one conclusion, viz: That,
for road building or repairing crush
ed stone is pre-eminently the best
material for thos purposes yet
produced.
Money otherwise expended on
roadways is often worse than thrown
away, each year finding them in the
same and in MANY instances, worso
condition than the preceding year,
while the constant repairs equired
render them for large part
Of the season positively unsafe for
travel. in former years when the
stone must be crushed or broken by
the slow AID tedious process Of the
hand hammer, it is not surprising
that material far more accessible, viz.
gravel, was used but with the many
stone crushed now i'm use that town
which neglects TO avail itself
ofits opportunity to procure this far
more valuable material for its road
ways is indeed lacking In enterprise
The pnblic domond has become
imperative for good and durable
roads, and viii be satisfied with
nothing el5c.-Grafton ,SeAihesl.

while waiting for the report of the
Committee on Resolutions, Hon.
VIM. l.. Wilson was called for, and
committee appointed to bring
him before the Convention. He
appeared and spoke for half au hour
and was frequently applauded, for
his oratory and brilliant utterances
on the tariff and living issues Of the
day. At the conclusion of his adj
dress, the Committee on Resolutions
reported through its chairman, ex-
Senator Henry G.. Davis. The
resolutions were adopted with a
hurrah, and will be found in another
column of this issue. The roll of
the counties was then called for
nominations and when Fayette was
reached Col. st. Clair arose and
named Judge Daniel B. Lucas in a
short but eloquent speech. State
Senator j. w. Arbueklc of Green
brier, Hon. IL. s. Walker of Kama
wha, and Q. G. Higginbotham of
Upshur seconded the nomination
in short speeches. Here delegate
from Writ county moved that the
rhles be suspended and Lucas nom
mated by acclamation. The mo-
tion carried and Mr.. Lucas was
declared the nominee of the conven-
tion. Here John o. Pendleton
was called for and made a ringing
speech predicting victory, and the
convention adjourned sine die.

The Democratic State Conven-

party leaders were there from all
parts of the State, and the utmost
good feeling prevailed. Consider
ing that there was but one nomIna-
ton to make, and that for an unex-

of the Convention was without a
parallel in the history of the State,
and presages victory in November
beyond doubt.

THE STATE REFORM SCHOOL.
The Law Concerning Admittenee 10
This Institution.

The State Reform School, located
at Pruntytown, is now in operation
and ready toreceive students. There
has been much inquiry as to who are
applicable, and how persons are sem
fenced to this school. For the ben
eft of all these persons and our rea-
dors in general, we give the law just
as it appears in the statute.
The manner of receiving inmates
into the West Virginia Reform
School shall be in either of the fol-
lowing modes, namely: First male
minors under the age Of sixteen
years may be committed by a justice
of the peace of any of the counties
IN the Sta te on complaint and due
proof made to him by the parents,
guardian or next friend of such mi
nor, that by reason of incorrigible,
vicious conduct such minor has rem
dered his control beyond the power
OF such parent. guardian or next
friend, and made it manifestly re-
quisite from the regard for the NOR
ais, and future welfare of such minor
and the peace and order of society.
he should be placed in the West
Virginia Reform School. Second,
male minors under the age of six
teen years may be committed under
the authority, aforesaid when COM
plaint and due proof have been
made that such minor is proper
subject for said reform school by
reason of vagrancy or vicious con-
duct such minor has rendered his
control beyond the power of such
parent, guardian or next friend and
made it manifestly requisite from
the regard for the morals and future
welfare Of such minor and the peace
and order Of society, he should be
placed in the West Virginia Reform
School. Third, such male minors
under the age Of sixteen years
as their parents guardian or next
friend may desire to place therein
for temporary restraint and discip-
line where parents, guardian or next
friend shall agree and contract with
tho board Of directors for theirs sup
port and maintenance. And fourth
male minors committed by the sew
raj counties Of the State as pro.
yided by the following section:
When any male minor, under the
age Of sixteen years, shall be con
yicted in any of the conrts of this
State of felony. or of a misdemeanor
punishable by imprisonment, the
judge Of said court in his discretion
and with reference to the character
OF the Reform School as a place Of
reform and not of punishment, IN
stead Of sentencing said minor to the
penitentiary or county Jail may Or
er.him removed to and confined in
the said Reform school; provided,
that in all cases no such transfer Of
any such minor from any county
shall be made until due notice has
been givin to the superintendent Of
the Reform School, and an answer
received from him that there is room
for su ch minor.

THE REED OUTRAGE.

Fifth-We denounce the unpre-
cedented and unparlimentary con.
duct Of Speaker Reed and his CON
federates in Congress, in ARBITRARILY
changing the rules Of the House OF
Representatives, which virtually pla-
ces legislation in the hands Of one
man, the Speaker, thus enabling
them to perpetuate Republican rule
by carrying their partisan legsla-
tion by force, without respect to the
protests and rights Of The minority.
This and the similar attempts 10
change the rules of tiie Senate are
utterly subyersivo of the spirit Of
our institutions, and a wantou at
tack upon the liberties Of the people.
THE FORCE BILL CONDENSED.
Sixth-We condemn in the
strongest terms the Federal election
force bill, passed by the House and
now pending in tho Senate, as a
most iniquitous contriyaUce Of par
tisan legislation. It is unpatriotic
in principle, unconstitutional in de-
tail and malicious in purpose. II
has more malignity in its conception
than any similar measure which
marked the political hatred Of the
war and reconstruction period. It

An exchange states that you can
read the proof Of newspaper article
three or four times, and repeatedly
pass the same mistake without
seeing it. All newspaper men tell
YOU so. But as soon as the press IS
started and the paper IS printed IN
It's complete shape, there stands the
error in front Of you, so big that
you can't see anything else. It's a
strange fact and is probably the
same reason why it is so easy to edit
a newspaper after it is printed.
