Our esteemed Republican friend
and fellow citizen, Prof. l. C. White,
is in danger Of having high politi-
cal honors thrust upon him.
In casting about for man with
some prestige as well as ia BARI,
to carry his party standard in the
coming campaign, it is being quietly
discussed whether indeed, Prof.
White is not the very man the Re
publican party has been looking for
Ii we may be permitted to express
an opinion on such matter we are
inclined to say that the Republicans
might go farther and fare worse.
We regard Prof. Whites politics
as the women say, perfectly horri-
Bile" but outside of that, he would
make good Governor And mas
much as there is in every political
contest, however one sided, a ghost
of chance for the minority man to
get in, we would be very glad to see
the Republican chances in West Vir-
ginia represented by a man who
would do honor to the office, if, by
the ghost of a chance, he got in.
We do not advise Prof. White to
run, but we will be glad to see him
honored with the nomination.

The House had under considera-
tion yesterday the tin-plate bill. The
people want the benefit of the low
prices that the removal of the Nc
Kinley tax would bring. For this
reason the tariff reformers of the
House propose to undo Mr.. McKin-
ley's work. But they met with OPP
position from the protectionists. One
of the Republican orators had the
hardihood to defend the increased
tax on n-plate. He asserted that
putting a tariff tax on an article
brings down the price of it! The
same orator asserts that taking the
tariff off sugar reduced its price to
the poor man. 1t seems that the tar.
if on tin plate does not keep up its
price, but it did keep up the price of
sugar! 1t is not surprising to find
this orator asserting that trusts are
not fostered by high tariffs. He ig-
nores the Sugar Trust, the iron and
steel combinations, the Cordage
Trust and the hundred other com
bines-under cover of the tariff wall
TO check production, stop factories
and put up prices. The speaker was
from Ohio. The speaker that follow
ed him in the same vein was from
Pennsylvania.

The judgment of the Circuit Coar,
is affirmed in the case Of the State
VS.. James WEIGH.
Welch was convicted of murder in
the first degree and sentenced to con
finement in the penitentiary for life
at last September term. His counsel
Immediately applied to the Supreme
court for writ of error ON the grounds
Of the verdict of the jury being con-
trary to the evidence, and that GER
tain instructions given to the jury by
Judge Hoke were erroneous. The
writ was granted and was tried at
this (June) term of the Supreme
Court The court affirmed the judg-
ment apparently on the technical
ground that the record did not show
that the bills of exceptions were sign
ed by the trial Judge, but at the
same time in rendering the decision
say that even though the bills had
been properly signed there was no

but the removal of WEIGH to the peni-
Tertiary to serve his life sentence,
which will be done rs soon as the
mandate from the court is received
by the sheriff, unless his counsel
should be able to interpose some
other obstacle. In justice to Judge
Hoke it should be stated the record
did not show his signature to the ex-
ceptions, but they were properly
signed and certified by him, and the
omission was mere oversight in
making up the record, which omis-
sion will doubtless be corrected by
Mr.. Crogan, who has gone to Wheel
ing for that purpose. The case was
argued before the Supreme Court by
Mr. Crogan, Prosecuting Attorney
Fortney, and the Attorney General.

The New York Tribune the other

torial in which it set forth what it
thought the business men of the
country wanted. 1t wound up with
the statement that they wanted HarI
rison reelected. The World then
gave few Of the things business
men don't want 1t declared that
They don't want another increase
of sec, 900, 900 in the pension roll like
that made during the last three years.
They don't want the country's re.
sources squandered after the fashion
set by the Billion Dollar Congress.
They don't want the Treasury
bankrupted by the granting Of boun-
ties and subsidies.
They don't want new taxes at a
time when taxes already outrun the
heaviest leyies of the war period.
They don't want the industries OF
the country crippled by the imposi-
ton of taxes ON the raw materials Of
manufacture.
They don't want to see trade legis-
lated against as il it were a crime.
They don't want foreign commerce
crippled by Il cocky and bumptious
foreign policy.
They don't want currency imitation
by the purchase of silver with paper
promises.
They don't want that lapse of the
silver standard which even Mr.. Sher-
man declares is threatened by the
law of 1890.
They don't want half the people of
the country treated as the public
enemy at the behest of Johnny"
Davenport.
They don't want to execute a per-
manent lease upon power in this
country to any political party.
They don't want the postal service
farmed out again TO a bargain coun-
ter incapable.
They don't want the statistics of
the country's population and indus
tries falsified again for political effect.
They don't want another four years
of Benjamin Harrison.
These are the things which the
business men of the country most
emphatically declared that they did
not want when they cast their votes
in 1890 and overwhelmed the Repub-
lican party like flood. These are
the things they will declare by their
votes in November that they don't
want now.

The Democratic National Com
ventiOm.

The Democratic national conven-
tion convened in Chicago at noon
yesterday, June 81, and the afternoon
was occupied with the work of organi-
cation. BY noon to-day the commit
tee on credentials will have finished
its labors and the real work of the
convention, which is to nominate the
next president and vice president of
these United States (without perad-
venture) will have begun.
The convention bids fair to be of
short duration. There is fixed idea
in the minds of the American people
that Grover Cleveland will be nomi-
mated without great deal of Difficult
ty, though there is an apprehension
that he may possibly not be available
owing to certain complications of the
party machinery in that politically
tyranical commonwealth, New York.
Whether he is available or not will
be matter which the keen and YER
satile delegates will not be slow to
discover, and in the contingency that
he is not, there will be no cause for
a long duration of the process Of
choosing head to the ticket.
The New DOMINION inclines to the
belief that Cleveland will be presen-
ted with the nomination. Appear
ances so indicate, and careful re-
view of the situation gives that re-
suit to the problem.
Other men who figure most con
spicuously. Cleveland first, are Cor
man, of Maryland, Carlisle, of Ken
lucky, Palmer, of Illinois, Gray, Of
Indiana, Flower, of New York. and
Boies, of iowa, and still there are
other good men. The Democratic
party has never been, and is not now.
at a loss for choice presidential tim
Der.
Hours, not days, remain for the
announcement of who shall be our
leader in the coming campaign. If
it is one or the other of the men
named general satisfaction will pre-
vail and our march to victory will be
easy. This is Democratic year.

EmmOns Blaine Dead.

Emmons Blaine, the second son Of
James G. Blaine, died at IL 10 o'clock
Saturday morning at the Mccormick
mansion, 135 Rush street, Chicago
He had been i'll only few hours, and
his death was wholly unexpected
Septic@mia, blood poisoning, which
developed from a bowel complaint
was the immediate cause of death
His wife and little two year-old son
were the only persons present when
death came.
Mr.. Blaine's death is due indirect
ly to the ordeal he passed through
as the chief director of his father
interests at the Minneapolis conven-
ton.
Emmons Blaine had been a quiet,
almost taciturn young man, and af-
ter his marriage settled into the bust
ness affairs which his wife's large
estate involved. He had little taste
for politics. Every one will remem-
Der that brilliant wedding at Rich
field Springs on September 26, 1889,
when he became the husband of An.
tia Mccormick, the millionaire reap
er manufacturers daughter. AL
though they went a good deal into
Chicago society, after their little son
was born they became known as a
thoroughly domestic couple.
His wife's share Of the Mccormick
estate was something over $4,000, 900
and Emmons Blaine managed it, part
of his duties being the presidency of
the Chicago Ship Building Company
Mr.. Blaine graduated from Harvard
College short time before his mar
riage and went Immediately into the
railroad business. He started as
clerk in the Chicago freight Office Of
the Chicago and Northwestern Rail
way, and was promoted until he be-
came head Of one of the departments
Of the West Virginia Central, and
afterward assistant General Manager.
of the Baltimore and Ohio.

The cry this year will be Hat and
Rat. Everybody knows why they
call Ben Harrison Hat Now about
Rat Reid. This gentleman is a high
ly cultered, rich, aristocratic sort of
a cad whose notions of the highly
aesthetic are opposed to any such
arrangement as Il labor organiza-
tion. and consequently he would not
allow union printers in his establish
ment, the New York Tribune. He
hired what are known as rat print
ers, hence his verminous cognomen
Rat Reid. He is one of the incest men
imaginable; don't recognize in his
paper events or proceedings controll-
ed by the masses of Americas intel
ligent working men. He is an ex-
quisite sort of hot house arrange
ment, that can't be exposed to the
weather. The naturally aristocratic
Republican party places him on the
ticket for vice. president. He suits
their select 400, but does Rat Reid
suit the men of the party?

The Outlook For Ninety.three.

.
1t being settled in the public mind
that the next president will be a
Democrat, let's see about the senate.
Senator German, of Maryland, than
whom there is no shrewder political
calculator, declares there is an ex-
cellent chance for Democratic sen
ate in 1898. And on looking into
the matter the prospects are very far
from discouraging.
Of the eighty eight Senators, thir-
ty-nine are Democrats, forty
Republicans, and two, Kyle and
PETER, Farmers Alliance. The
terms of eleven Democrats and
eighteen Republican Senators expire
next year. All the Democrats will
have Democratic successors. On the
other hand, Stockbridge, of Michi-
gan; Sawyer, of Wisconsin; Hiscock,
of New York, and Sanders, of Mon
tana, are liable to be secceeded by
Democrats, which would be within
one vote of a tie, where the casting
vote would rest with a Democratic
vice president.
For this vote we have show in
Connecticut, in Massachusetts and
even in Nevada. In Massachusetts
the repeal of the poll tax has added
10000 votes to the Democratic col
umn and the Democrats have
a fair chance to carry the legislature.
Upon the whole the outlook for a
Democratic administration, includ-
ing President and Congress in 1898,
is exceedingly gratifying.-Cumbcr

The republican leaders are casting
wistful looks toward Kansas. There
is little doubt now that the demo
Gratis and alliance men will fuse. If
so it portends defeat to the republi-
cans. Judge Martin, late Democrat
ic candidate for governor for the
State, says "of course there will be
fusion; on the electoral ticket it is
certain, and the Republican party
will be wiped off the map of Kansas"
Elk Governor Click, the only Demo-
cratic governor Kansas has ever had,
says: THE Republican opposition
will make clean sweep in Kansas
this year; we are certain to carry
the electoral ticket and six of the
eight congressman" In 1890 Kan
sas voted on governor as follows:
Republican, ll5,025. Peoples or
Alliance, 106, 972; Democratic, H.
357 The joint majority over the
Republicans was $4,000.

With the agreement that Tammany
may have the Mayor of New York
City, for which she is to deliver a
majority for the Democratic presi-
dental electors, everything tends to
a realization of the prophecy that
this is Democratic year. Kansas
Democrats have fused with the
FmWers' Alliance and she is ours.
In West Virginia the citizens in the
mining districts in the lower end of

The fusion of democrats and
Farmers Alliance men in the strong
republican States of Kansas, Ne
braska, the two Dakotas and Min
nesota may have important political
results. The republican vote in each
of these States is said to be much
below that of the other two parties
combined. As the democrats and
the alliance people are equally in
favor of tariff reform and opposed to
the force bill, there would seem to
be basis for concerted action
against the common foe.

Public sentiment among members
ofthe profession and the people gener-
ally over the State, has for some time
been crystalizing in favor Of Hon.
Joseph Moreland for ore Of the va
ca1feies on the Supreme Bench.
No systematic effort either on the
part Of Mr. Morcland or his friends,
has brought this about. The Bar of
the State feels kindly toward him.
They have confidence in his ability,
his character and his general fitness
for the high position. 1t is simply
a spontaneous movement. Nothing
like electioneering has been done.
Mr.. Moreland has kindly spirit
which makes no enemies and many
friends, and his friends in both par
ties will be glad to see him elevated
to this honorable office.
1t behooves his friends in Monon-
gala especially to go to the conven-
tion with Mr.. Moreland's interest in
view. 1t will be an honor not only
to him but to the county to have
that office filled from among our own
people. And it is as little as our
people can do, when there is a gen
eral demand for one Of their own sons
to show how highly they appreciate
him themselves. This they will GER
tainly do. Mr.. Moreland will have
the solid vote Of our delegation, and
without any unseemly scramble they
will see that he gets the nomination.
