THE REVISED RITUAL
There are few, indeed. who take up the revised
Rituals now in possession Of the Corps who have
any realization OF the vast amount Of labor eI-
pended upon the revsions.
Past National President Emma g. Hampton.
who had charge of the work from iis inception to
completion, has been culling ont the various re-
visions from a mass Of accumulated letters and
papers, and will have them bound Rs n curiosity in
book making. The first Ritual, mere beginning
IN revision. Is completely written over. well as
the margins. The elimination OF one error re-
vealed another the revision progressed, and
the wonder is that there was found a woman with
the patience and persistence 10 push the work 10
completion. The Rules were revised IS times after
having been given to the printer and this was
the second year after the revision was well adj
yRnced.
One OF the greatest curosities Of the accumulated
lore Is the marked Rules and Rituals with letters
OF n commendatory or cOndcmnatory character,
received by the committee largely by request, as
the revision progressed.
The baptisms Of fire, the foods OF wrath. the
sunbeAms Of encouragement, the hours OF back
ache and headache, the surprises at previous stu
pidity at not seeing all clearly from the beginning

Ohio is almost too decidedly Re-
publican and uncertain in politics TO
justify prediction, yet we are rash
enough to venture the suggestion
that Democratic Governor might
be cleo ted in that State next fall.
Stranger things than that have
happened in Ohio. The situation is
a very interesting one. The cam
paignis made more distinctly on ma
tional issues than is usually in a
State election. Ohio will really be
the battle ground for the opening
fight of the next presidential cam
paign. ALI the influence of the ma
tional administration will be employ
ed. The Republican candidate, Nc
Kinley, is the standard bearer of his
party more distinctly in this instance
than any other man could be. He is
the author of the tariff bill and the
champion of the tariff policy which
his party has adopted. that will be
the issue. And If Mckinley is de-
feated it will knock the last prop out
of the Republican platform. 1t will
destroy the last lingering hope of
success in the presidential campaign.
1t decides the result in '92 if he is
defeated, and only raises hope if
he is elected. The Democrats have
everything to gain and nothing to
lose.

With every summer season the
desirableness of a summer hotel
comes to us with renewed force.
We talk much about securing
manufactures and other like enter
prises, and some Of our business
men are advocating large donations
Of land and money to obtain them,
but there is no mandatory that
would bring as many people and
distribute as much money and pay
as good dividends on the investment
as a summer hotel.
Any mandatory would have to
come in competition with many
others of the same kind, and make
itself business as against Others
more favorably situated. but a sum-
mer hotel would find the business
waiting for it and become paying
investment from the day its doors
we're opened. The local conditions
too, are such that its might be filed
with boarders during the entire
winter season. Similar hotels at
other places are content to have
three months of business and close
up during the balance of the year,
and they make it pay. But we
have population of students who
would be glad of the opportunity to
occupy the rooms after the summer
guests have gone.
The Investment Company and the
Steamboat Company ought to be
able to get together on hotel pro
ject and make it a good thing for
themselves and the town.

-cent municipal contest. II any evidence
of this fact is needed, it can be obtained
by visiting Fairmont on Saturday eve
ming and witnessing the drunkenness on
our streets; not an isolated case or two,
but by the score ; not old men and young
men alone-but boys not old topers and
habitual drinkers only, but recruits from
the ranks of sober men, Fairmont's
business interests are in excellent con-
dition, but no man of sense will have
the presumption to attribute it to the
presence OF the saloon with its vice.
breeding and loafer-breeding influence.
The saloon may put few more dollars
into the hotel keepers purse, and it
does increase the police business, but
what other business does it help? Is it
good political economy to legislate for
the few (the hotel keepers) to the detri-
ment OF the many?

saloon business in Fairmont it will be
to shut off that old croak, at is better

business at the railroad station gives

amount of intoxicating liquors handled

A young man who spent over two
years in Fairmont at school under the

sion of his visit here last commence
ment that he had seen more drunk
enness on the streets in Fairmont in the
few days he had been here than he saw
during his sojourn here as a student.
Another visitor remarked that he had
been accustomed TO hold Fairmont up
as model OF sobriety and good order,
but added, II cannot do it now So
