cation, Takes Poison.
WOODSTOCK, VA, August 31.-Will-
lam Knee, cashier Of the Mount
jackson National Bank. committed
suicide at Mount Jackson Sunday night
by taking strychnine. Knee had over
drawn his salary about $500, and had
also forged his uncle's name TO a check
for $3.50 about two months ago, and
when his crime was discovered he ten
dered his resignation. This the bank
refused TO accept until Knees securities
had made good the shortage. Finding
that nothing was being done In the
matter, the bank people concluded TO
have Knee arrested, aud warrant was
issued last Saturday by United States
Commissioner Bennett. Knee was ar
rested Sunday morning and released on
bail that evening. Meanwhile, his
friends took from his room several re-
volvers and rifle, 1t being generally
believed that he proposed to kill some
Of the bank officials and then take his
own life.
When Knee found his game had been
blocked he killed himself with Strych-
nine. He was native of West Vir-
ginia, aud came to this country several
years ago. He started as dry goods
clerk and afterward was offered the
place Of bank cashier. Mt. jackson is
about eight miles from here. Knee was
80 years OF age and unmarried.

ID. DUFFY, the well known oil operator

from Sistersville, w. Va, where he had
business engagements. The gentleman
states that his well on the island, about one
mile above SiStersville, is drilling in the
TOP of the sand and showing for splendid
well. AT the present time 1t is flowing at
the rate of 200 barrels per day. The wei

Woo RErARDs STATE PROGRESS?

WBO RETAEDS SCArE PROGRESS?
The IttcUigalccr makes a sorry pic
ture Of itself when it charges that State
development and progress have been re-
tarded by the Democratic party. 1t is
a matter of history that it, the
In.srgeuccr, opposed with ali the
strength and ability it possessed,
though that was not much, the most
important and valuable aid TO the
prosperity and progress Of the city of
Wheeling that has been undertaken
within twenty years. We refer to the
Wheeling Bridge and Terminal i'm
proyement. That great work caused
the expenditure Of over three millions
Of money in this city; it placed the
thriving city of Martins Ferry
within ten minutes reach OF our doors;
it has brought new railroad to the
heart Of the city, and has opened up an
ever-increasing trade for our merchants
and manufacturers with Northeastern
Ohio, Michigan and other points; it has
so increased the facilities for shipment
that competing lines Of railroads have
reduced their charges considerably 10
Wheeling shippers. Indeed this item
alone has proved Of such benefit that It
was said by representative of the
Riverside iron works, 10 the effort to set
the extension OF the Terminal tracks to
Benwood, that his company had saved
already $4,000 per aunam ia the way

TEE high and glowing tribute to Ar-

knows whereof he afirms- There Is no
doub. that the Republican party had the
advantage in 1855 Of the best political
General ever known in this country Mr.
Ouay's methods were honest and elect
i've. If Zschariah Chandler was the
Sheridan Of politics, then surely Matthew
s. QUAY was the Grant. It is true, as Mr..
Clarkson maintains, that the Democrats
and Mugwumps have al the time been
bitterly malicious in their attacks upon
Mr.. Quay because he was so able and had
achieved 50 much, and that the Republi-
can press, 10 q large extent, failed to
come 70 his defense and deserves TO be
scored. The constant and malicious at
tacks on Senator Quay by the Democrat
ic and Mugwump press only emphasize
the fact that he is hated and denounced
because Of his remarkable skill and sue
cess as a Republican leader.

From The Chicago Inter Ocean
Mr.. Henry Watterson and Mr.. Grover
Cleveland agree that tariff reform, which
both offhem use as a phrase meaning
free trade, must be the Democratic bat
tie CRY in this years Presidential cam
paign. Mr. Cleveland may be supposed
to believe that he ought to be the leader
Of the hosts that peal the battle cry,
though be is careful not TO say 50. Mr.
Watterson believes that Mr.. Cleveland
ought not 10 be the leader, and is very
careful TO say so. Indeed, Mr.. Waiter
son is emphatic that the next Democrat
iecandidate must not come from New
York. And vet the Democrats have not
come near to gaining Presidential vic
tory during the past thirty-two years
with any candidate who did not come
from New York. Cleveland who won,
and Tilden, who came very near to win
ming, were from New York. Mcclellan,
who was beaten out of sight, came from
New Jersey.
Mr. Wstterson names q dozen Demo-
cratic possibilities, but does not put
Gray, Of Indiana, on the list, and as Mr..
Watterson is pretty shrewd observer,
we may conclude that the vain sspira-
tions of Indiana's candidate are not
worth considering. But Mr.. Watterson
speaks very vaguely concerning Demo-
cratic candidates, excepting Cleveland
and Hill, of each Of whom he says, she
will not do at all"
Since Mr.. Watterson and Mr.. Cleve-
land expressed their opinions another
distinguished Democrat, a member Of
Congress from Illinois, has spoken, and
be said eve are making ourselves ride
ulous before the country. l tell

pitiable in view of the approaching
campaign" Suggesting that the words
