West Virginia Farmers Alliance.
AT the West Virginia Farmers ALI
ance meeting, which wns held at Grafton
Wednesday and Thursday of this week
President Houston delivered IN address
in which he reviewed the growth OF the
organization in this State during the
past year. There is no reason to doubt
tho accuracy Of the figures, and yet they
are somewhat startling. Mr.. Houston
states that the growth last year was
more than one hundred per cent; that
ono year ago there were but twenty
counties organized-now there are forty;
that the sub-alliances have increased
from $50 to 700, and that the present
membership in the State is 10000.
The Alliance in West Virginia is not
vet strong enough, to be sure, so accom-
plish much for itself rs a party, but
there is no denying the fact that these
twenty thousand voters are able to hold
position which may render the con-
test between the two. old parties very
doubtful, should thsyhol together and
adopt tho third party plan in operation
in some other States. This is exceed
insly unlikely. The farmers as mass
in West Virginia, it is believed, are not
inclined to break the ties which have so
long held them to the old
parties, though there are some
who, enchanted by the impractical
ideas advocated by tho National
organization, are ready to chase the
rainbow pictured to them in the politi-
cal SKY, in the hope Of finding at It's

The Crib Water System.

Tho INTELLrGEScER has frequently
contended that possibly in the adoption
Of the crib system a way might be
found out OF the difficulty in the matter
Of pure water supply for the city. In
the form of an interesting interview.
with Mr.. John H. Hall, published yes
terday, was given the results of the
inspection tour by the Water Board in
search OF suggestions for methods Of
supply. Though he did not express a
preference, Mr.. Hall was evidently very
favorably impressed with the crib
system in use at Columbus, which city
enjoys tho luxury Of healthful water
supply. ~
The method was once started but
never finished on the island bar in this
city, and there are many people who
still hold that the work should have
been completed. There are reasons why
it might now be adopted profitably, not
the .least Of which is the comparatively
small cost. But at any cost, II it can be
shown that it would give us pure water,
it would be worth the investment. This
consideration is above that Of the ex-
penditure Of money.

The laws of health are taught in onr
schools; but not in way to be of much
practical benefit and are never illustrat-
ed by living examples, which in many
cases could easily be done. If some
scholar, who had just contracted cold
was brought before the school, so that
all could hear the dry loud cough, and
know its significance; see the thin white
coating on the tongue and later, as the
cold develops, see the profuse watery
expectoration and thin watery discharge
from the nose, not one of them would
ever forget what the first symptoms of a
cold were. The scholar should then be
given Chamberlain Cough Remedy
freely, that all might see that even a
severe cold could be cured in one or two
days, or at least greatly mitigated, when
properly treated as soon as the first sym
ptoms appear. For sale by j. T. Ben

word .'pecuniary," which is often used
in speaking of mans riches, comes
from the Latin word pecus, which means
cattle, and shows that formerly a man 5
wealth was reekoned by the cattle he
possessed. Abraham is said to have
been Every rich in cattle, in silver, and

its use to all persons suffering from the
