Still Stuck i'm the Mud

This is the last week in June, and
there are yet some public roads with
in three miles of town that are next
to impossible. There are holes in
some of these leading roads in which
vehicle will sink up to the hub,
and no effort has been made to re-
pair or fill them up. They are just
as the winter left them, and they are
deep enough to last all Summer.
If farmer living along the line of
one of these roads should take pur-
chaser over them to see his land, the
road itself would reduce the salable
value of his farm rs per cent. A
stranger, unaccustomed to such
roads, would be afraid to ride over
them. He would pronounce them
impossible. He would think it reck-
less to risk his vehicle or his horses
legs in these bottomless pools.
But Monongalian seems to take
it as matter of course. AS long as
he can see his horses ears out of the
mud he thinks himself safe and is
happy. No word of complaint ess,
capes him. If the road is passable
at any risk it is good enough for
him.
If there is any subject upon which
public sentiment in this county needs
to be aroused it is on the matter of
public roads. No county ever i'm
proves or developsbeyond its estimate
of roadway. Its roads are the test
of its thrift and civilization. You
might as well expect the mercury to
rise without heat as to look for
population to thrive without good
roadways. 1t has never occurred.
1t never will. The roadway is the
infallible index to the character of
any people.
The new dominion. [volume] (Morgantown, W. Va.) 1876-1904, 1891-06-27

The damage by the drought in the
early part of the season has been
quite fully repaired by the abundant
rains and sunshine of the past few
weeks. The meadows have jumped
to their wonted luxuriance; the fields
of grain have matured and are ripen-
ing with a generous yield land veget-
ables and fruits are coming forward
with promise of a superabundance.
Altogether the season is a good
one Notwithstanding the unfavorable
drought with which it opened.
1t is safe to anticipate that the
hay crop will reach an average; the
wheat will go beyond the average
crop; the oats will be very good; and
the corn has very fair start for this
time in the season.
We would appear very unappre-
ciativc of the most generous. product
of this locality if we failed to men
tion the blackberries. They are sim
ply magnificent. The bending branch
es were never so luxuriant in appear
ance or munifcent in promise. The
highways and byways will offer
blackberries without money and with
out price. We will just revel in the
luscious berry.

Lawrence Minor Acquitted.

WAYNEsBURG, Pa, June 1S.-The
evidence in the trial of Lawrence
Minor, charged with the murder OF
Richard Long, was concluded to day.
The Hon. j. w. Ray, counsel for the
prisoner, addressed the court asking
that the jury be instructed to bring
in a verdict of acquittal upon the
ground of insufficient evidence on
the part of the commonwealth. This
was opposed by the Hon. A. A. Pur-
man but after deliberation the court
instructed the jury to acquit the
prisoner. as the state had failed to
show that Mr.. Longs death was the
result of the wounds inflicted by
Minor. The prisoner was acquitted
and discharged. 1t will be remem-
bered that Long had been drinking
with Minor on last Christmas day
and it was alleged that be had been
so severely beaten by the prisoner
that death resulted in a week. Both
men belong to prominent families.

A SINGULAR REQUEST
From Connecticut "White" Woman
in Behalf Of ssSim" johnson,

CHARLESTON, W. Va, June 49,
Governor Fleming had an unplcas
ant interview this morning with a
white woman, fanatic, who had
come all the way from Connecticut
to prevent the hanging of shat poor
little boy" "Sim" johnson. She got
him cornered in the hotel office, and
talked with and appealed to him as
long as she could keep him. Her
husband fought to free the negro and
now one of them was about to be
hung. She didn't think that was
the way to treat them at all. She
thought it was sort of Southern
outrage to hang negro, and quoted
the Bible to show that he shoald not
be hung The crime, she admitted
was horrible one, but the poor fell
low, she thought, knew no better
She plead for communication of his
sentence. or at least time to prepare
for death. She said the Governor
should not send his poor guilty soul
to hell, and told him the Lord would
hold him alone responsible for it If
he did not save him, and upon him
would rest the stigma of sending to
eternal punishment soul he might
have saved. The Governor treated
her courteously, but had to refuse to
interfere, and the law took it, course.
