INDEPENDENTS.

Correspondence OF the Argus.
Once more my old quill is grasped
to write you. Now that the nomi-
nations of the Great Democratic
party is over, and they have made
the choice of Grover Cleveland and
Gen. Stevenson as candidates for
President and Vice President on the
Democratic Ticket, which is an
honor to our country, an honor to
our Government, and an honor to
our party. a better choice to lead
the great Democratic party could
not have been made. Nav Demo
cracy long live, May she grow in
strength and forever, till Republi-
canism with its pockets full of
Force Bills, Mckinley Bills and
a." Protection " be swept from this
free earth as clean as the floor after
n good grooming. She has got to
fall. The people are tired of being
protected six month out of forty
eight. If it is the Republican par
tvs object to protect tho farmers,
machinIsts, laborers of all kind,
and the poor class of people in
general. Why don't they do il !?
Instead of protecting us, making
our burdens lighter, promoting our
general welfare, they are making
our burdens heavier, by taxation,
starving and making poorer the
poor, to fatten and make richer TIE
rich. Thanks be to the persons
who in the Chicago Convention,
placed at the head Of our Victorious
National ticket, the names Of
Cleveland and Stevenson. The
injustice Of the Republican party
has put the people to thinking, she
has been blinded TO her own inter.
est, she has obstinatcly persisted,
till victory is now within our grasp.
We have but to reach forth for it,
and 1t is ours, and on The eighth Of
November we are going to grasp it,
and Republicanism shall be no
more, she cannot last. The next
name which | hope will be men.
toned on our ticket is the name Of
W. VAS Brightest, Grandest and
Noblcst Son, and that name is the
name Of the Hon. w. l.. Wilson.
The man who is true TO his prin.
ciplcs. The man who is for his
fcllow-man. West Virginia is
proud OF that Son. May he long
live. Frugality aud SUCCESS be his
lot. May he have on the breast
plate Of Democracy and the helmet
Of victory in the upbuilding Of
Democracy, and he is sure Of heaven
after death.
Can any Of my half brother Re.
publicans tell why their Rcpresen-
tatives passed the Free Coinage

West Virginia.
West Virginia comes to the front
with a natural wonder. In Noble
county there IS, according to o CITY
paper, a fathomless sea composed of
salt water and oil, from which gas
escapes with tremendous roar.
Nearly twonty years ago II we'll was
drilled there to q depth of 900
feet, but as no results were apparent
it was abandoned.
Some years after water and gas
escaped from tho hole with great
pressure, tearing out the tubing and
cutting cavern apparently hun
dreds of feet deep and forty-fye feet
In diameter. After some years IT
ceased to flow, and farmer named
Martz filled it up and built barn
over it, resting one pillar on the
filled ground.
A few days ago a terrific report
at the barn announced the explosion
OF the well, and oil and water
poured out in abundance. In a
short time the pillar under the barn
began TO sink, and was soon out Of
sight. In the course OF u day the
hole had become fathomless and
again nearly forty feet wide
