Hustling for News.

A great many people think news
paper should have about page of
local news whether anything hap
pens or not. Deluded mortals. Lo-
cal editors cannot make people
break their necks, commit suicide or
do any Of the other exciting things
that go to make up the material out
of which the local reporter delights
to weave paragraphs. Furnishing
domestic news when there is none is
very much like extracting blood
from a turnip. 1t is no more than
fair that those who grumble at the
lack of local news in their paper
should stop and think whether they
could not give the editor an item or
two worth printing, and, if so, let
them hold their peace or growl at
their own remssness."

RECEIVING STOLEN MONEY.
A Hancock County WOman's Bail Re.
duced Yesterday.
Wheeling Intelligencer,

Ex-senator John r. Donehoo, of
Hancock county, came down yester-
day and applied to Judge PAUL for
a writ Of habeas corpus for Lottie
Harris, now confined in the Jail at
New Cumberland in default of $500
bail on charge of receiving stolen
money, knowing it to be stolen.
Judge PAUL intimated that if it was
satisfactory he would prefer to re-
duce the bail from $500, as fixed by
Squire Chapman, to $50, rather than
have hearing on the habeas corpus
matter. This proposition was ac-
cepted by Mr.. Donehoo, with the
understanding that he might ask
for hearing hereafter.
The case was famous one in the
vicinity of Cumberland George
Wells, of East Liverpool, alleged
that he had $500 stolen, and de-
tective was employed and worked on
the case for some time. AS result
of his Investigations Lottie Harris
was arrested and committed to Jail.

They Appreciate the Country Paper.

The New York Sun says: 1t
would do the hearts of country edi-
tors good to ride up town on the ele-
waited cars in the afternoon of Friday
and Saturday on any week in the
year. On these two days great
many business men give only has
ty glance at the evening papers and
then Immediately draw from pock
ct copy Of paper that is in mark
ed contrast to the city paper, SO far
as type and general appearance goes.
The type is invariably larger and
the displays of advertisements and
headings to news articles commonly
coarser. The ink is not always
spread evenly over the page. Never
theless the business man opens the
paper to the page devoted to village
news and reads every line there. At
ter that he not infrequently reads
the village advertisements and give
brief look at the editorials. The
city man used to live in the village
where that paper was printed, and
he recognizes the names of people
there as old acquaintances and COM
monty old friends. The village pa
per comes like letter from home to
the city man who was once yillager.

"BRICKv POMEROY.
The Well Known Writer Politician and
Financier.
In W. Va. With q View to Building
q Railroad Up Coal River to Devel.
Op Land.
Kanawha Gazette.

M. M. Pomeroy, known all over
the country as "Brick" Pomeroy, an
old time newspaper man, who wrote
before the war and has been writing
ever since, and who has become wide
ly known through his writings and
numerous speculative schemes, ar
rived in the city yesterday with his
wife, and was seen by Gazette re-
porter in the parlor of the Hotel Ruff
ner. "Brick" is fine looking man
of apparently 80 years or upwards,
with bald head and gray whiskers, a
refined air and the appearance OF a
man who knows great deal of the
world. His wife is much younger, a
handsome lady, very intelligent, and
with true mothers pride showed the
reporter picture of group of three
very pretty children.
Mr.. Pomeroy is here, he says, as
the representative of Eastern CAPT
talists to spy out the land. He leaves
to-day for Boone, Logan, Wyoming
and Mcdowell counties to investigate
with a view to the purchase, by a
syndicate, of large tracts of land over
there, and its development by the
construction Of railroad up Coal
river. His trip will extend through
week or more.
Mr.. Pomeroy is at present editor
of AdUdnce Thought, monthly pub
location, devoted to no party, though
he, himself, is Democrat. He ex-
pressed himself as heartily in favor
of the free coinage of silver and
thinks the protection idea utterly alb
surd. when a nation said he, las
great and powerful as ours, with so
much energy and enterprise and SO
many varied resources cannot com
pete with other nations with less
than half our advantages, it's time
to give up and quit. This is the
most wonderful and the wealthiest
nation in the world. Why, right
here in West Virginia alone, you have
more wealth in natural resources than
was supposed to exist in the whole
American continent, at the time when
the English red jackets were popping
away at our ancestors to save theiI
colonies"
Mr.. Pomeroy talked entertainingly
of his great enterprise in Colorado
where a company of which be is presi
dent is digging tunnel which viii
be five miles long, under a mountain
the top of which will be 4,400 fee

Pay the Printer Promptly.

Persons who patronize papers
should pay promptly, for the pecuni-
airy prospects of the press have a
peculiar power in pushing forward
public prosperity. If the printer is
paid promptly, and his pocketbook
kept plethoric by prompt paying pat
rons, he puts his pen to his paper in
peace, his paragraphs are more
pointed; he paints his pictures of
passing events in more pleasing col
ors, and the perusal of his paper is a
pleasure to the people. Please paste
this piece of proverbial philosophy
in some place where all persons can
perceive it.

NO HOPE FOR M'KINLEY
If This Row C0ntfnues-The Rivalry
Between Sherman and Foraker
VIII Greatly Injure the Tariff
Raiser's Chances.

WASHINGTON, July 31.-The an
nouncement of open war between
Sherman and Foraker in Ohio causes
no surprise in Washington.
1t has been known for some time
by those familiar with Ohio politics
that the serene air of harmony worn
by the republican leaders in the
Buckeye State was but the mask for
bitter heartburnings and intense jeal-
ousies.
Foraker is after the Senatorsbip.
He made that plain enough in his
talk In Cincinnati yesterday, if he
had not done so before. He is not
the sort of man to be restrained BY
the great reputation of Senator Sher-
man nor by the crushing rebuke
which he received from the republi-
cans of Ohio two years ago. For
aker cares about as much for the re-
form element of his party as Gov
ernor Hill, of New York, does for the
mugwumps of his State.
Foraker thinks he knows thing
or two good deal better worth hav
ing than the support Of the thinking
men of his party. He has followed
the usual machine methods with a
degree of success which is spreading
alarm among the friends of Senator
Sherman. The Executive Committee
of the Republican State Committee
is packed with his creatures, and he
took pains to have Mckinley and the
managers of the State Convention
notified that if his opponents were
put on the committee there would be
trouble.
Mckinley is personally charm
ing gentleman, Intellectually strong,
but he is not a man of iron, and he
is trembling in his shoes for fear
both candidates will sacrifice him to
elect friendly members of the Legis-
lature. This is Just what they are
likely to do. A bitter struggle is al
ready beginning to control the re-
publican primaries for legislative
candidates. All candidates must
say whether they favor Sherman or
Foraker. The side that wins in
given district is almost certain to be
terribly knitted by the friends of the
other.
MKINLEY WILL BE SOLD OUT.
The Foraker men and the Sher-
man men will probably Offset this by
mercilessly selling out McKinly to
save their legislative favorites, and
the result will be-unless Mckinley
gets a pile of democratic votes-that
he and the legislative ticket will go
down together as they did two years
ago.
The situation thus sketched is no
fancy picture, but is exactly what is
described to me by leading Ohio re-
publicans here who know whereof
they speak. While most of these
gentlemen intend to vote the ticket
they rage furiously against Foraker
and his underhand methods and de-
clare that everything in their power
shall be done to save Ohio from the
disgrace of replacing the greatest f.
nancial leader of the republican
party by an INSCRIPTIONS dema-
gogue.

Garrison Case.

Drinking the Land.

Where land is worth 500 an acre,
one glass of beer Mt five cents would
represent pice of land twelve feet
long and nine feet wide. At this
rate what splendid domain some
of our beer guzzlers have swallowed
in the course of their experiences
1t might be stated as paradox that
the amount of land really acquired
by the industrious drinker is only
six feet by two.

es keep him pretty busy, but he
finds time to do little writing &C.
casionally.
This is his first trip to this part Of
the State and he is already quite
charmed. He compared the New Riv-
er canons with those of the Colora-
do, and said that but for the foliage
on the New River they would not be
unlike. He is thoroughly interested
in the coal fields of the State and al
though he comes prepared, he will
still doubtless be surprised at what
he will see. He yields a powerful
pen, and if the rest of his West Vir-
ginia trip impresses him as much as
the first part has done, our State will
be brought into good deal more
prominence than it is now in.

Progress Notwithstanding Protection.

That our country is making enor-
nous progress in nearly all lines
of industry no one doubts. AS to
the causes of this progress there is a
radical difference of opinion. The
protectionists hasten to claim it as
the natural and inevitable result of
their policy of protection to Ameri-
can industry-not seeing that such
a claim does little honor to American
enterprise and American inventive
ness, and overlooks entirely our vast
resources, which are not equaled by
those of any other country on earth.
We make progress, but it is as
Edward Atkinson expresses it, A
strong man can run, although he has
pebble in his shoe
Suppose some Rip Van Wrinkle of
the Middle Ages-a time when steam
was unknown-should now wake up
on board of one of our magnificent
ocean steamers. He sees the shores
rapidly receding behind him. al
though the vessel is steaming direct
ly in the teeth of the wind The
fact puzzles our Rip Van Wrinkle.
He has never seen ship moving
directly against the wind, and yet he
has never seen vessel propelled by
any other than wind power. Hence
he is sure that wind power is still
the only power that can propel a
ship although he must admit that
the ship is steering straight against
the wind.
In his inexperience of the great
strides which modern enterprise and
invention have made he overlooks
the throDbing engine which is fore
ing the vast bulk forward and per-
sists in his Anticipated notion that
in some way the wind is getting
in its work.
Thus with the Rip Van Wrinkles
of protection. They are sure that
only the wind Of protection can
propel the ship of state. They for
get the mighty motive power--our
broad acres of wheat and corn, our
rich mines and forests, our inven-
tiveness and enterprise which are
driving the ship of state to its port.
The protectionists are curious
folk.
