The ReaSOu.

Republican politicians are searching
in all manner of out-of-the-way corners
for the causes of their party's defeat
They are carefully overlooking the
actual cause. which lies open to less
prejudiccd view. The. republican party
was defeated because its politicians
have strayed away from honest and
patriotic courses They have wor-
shiped strange gods They have allied
themselves and their party with the
plutocratic interests of the country.
They have betrayed the people to the
monopolists- They have sought to sub
stitutc money for manhood as the con-
trolling power. They have tried to buy
elections. They have squandered the
substance of the country in order that
there might be no reduction in oppres-
sive taxes which indirectly but enor-
mously benefit favored class. The
party is punished for its sins. It has
forfeited popular confidence by its mis-
conduct It has ceased to deserve
power and the people have taken pow.
er from it. That 10 the whole story

Talk to Your Horse.

When a horse becomes frightened,
demoralized or otherwise ratified about
something he encounters, but does not
understand, good way to quiet him
down is simply to talk to him in q quiet
tone of voice. # horse gets fright
ened at something he sees in the road,
stop him at once and give him formal
introduction to it. telling him in the
meantime how very foolish he is to let
such a little thing disturb him. Nothing
can be worse than to whip q horse
when he is frightened He doesn't get
frightened because he wants to. It IL
only because he has seen or hekrd
something that he is not familiar with.
After he once gets thoroughly nc
quainted with the object Of his uneasi-
ness it will never frighten him again

The Knights of Pythiss owned the

was devoted to the business OF the
Grand Lodge of West Virginia, and IN
the afternoon a competitive drill was
given on the State fair grounds. Last
evening a lunch was given by the local
lodges to the visitors in Beethoven hall,
pleasantly winding up a day OF notable
enjoyment. The main business OF the

chair OF the Grand Chancellor for an
hour or so during the session, An in
teresting matter was introduced by
Past Grand Chancellor Frank Fl. Smith,
OF New Cumberland, in the shape OF u
resolution calling for a committee to
revise the West Virginia constitution SO
ms to harmoniZe with recently promul-
gated laws of the Supreme lodge. This
was unanimously adopted. The COM
mittee will report at the next annual
session OF the Grand Lodge.
Reports OF committees were heard and
showed the order to be in good condi-
dition: The report OF the grand keeper
of records and seal, Mauer jenkins,
showed that in the year ending June 80,
1892, twelve new lodges had been e'-
tablished in this state, and that the
membership Of the order had increased
$50. This IL q most gratifying state OIL
affairs, for it shows the largest increase
in the number OF lodges and members
in the history OF the order in the state.
The total number Of members is now
4,052, and the total number OF lodges
s%eventy-one. Nineteen past chancellors
OF the order were admitted to member

BY the Fire Department Last Night TO
Enlertain Knights.
Chief Frank Haley entertained the
visiting knights in a novel manner last
evening by calling out the Ere depart
ment on a test run. None Of the COM
panies was notified of the test, SO that
the call would show the same results as a
regular alarm OF fire sent in. Some ex-
~cellent time was made, which was q
matter OF great surprise to the visitors.
The rapidly with which the various
companies responded is seldom beaten.
At lust twelve minutes to s o'clock
Chief Haley pulled the hook at the cor
ner of Fourteenth and Market streets,
and one minute and five seconds later
the chemical engine was on the ground,
which was remarkably fast time, es-
pecially when the streets were SO
crowded with people. The chemical
engine was closely followed by thu hook
and ladder truck, with the Atlantic reel
a good third, and the Atlantic engine
fourth. One minute later the Nigllant
reel put in an appearance. iol-
lowed q few seconds later by the
engine. Then came the Niagara
engine and reel, the Island reel show
ing up a minute later. The new Ahrens
engine and reel, OF the Eighth ward,
were the last to put in an appearance,
having made the run in less than seven
minutes, which wa splendid time, the
company having to go somewhat out oil
the way on account OF the torn up.
streets on the South Side. The chief
was complimented very highly on the
proficiency of the department by the
knights, who we're greatly pleased with
the results OF the test.

A Large Crowd Witnesses 1t and all are
Delighted by IT.
The competitive drill wa announced
to begin at two o'clock, but owing to
unforeseen drawbacks it was an hour
later before it came of. Captain
Bakers famous ParkersburG division
evidently overawed the other knights,
for there were but two entries for the
three prizes, the Parkersburg division
and the one from Piedmont. To make
the list full, Ceur de Lion division. OF
Wheeling, entered at a moments
notice. The boys did not expect to
drill and had made no special prepare
ton for it, and considering all the Cir
cumstances thee certainly did well.
Lieut. Brennersreuther, DR.. II. b.
Baguley and Capt. William Otto acted
as judges. There was an unexpectedly
large crowd on the grounds, perhaps
1000 people. Among these were q
number OF Pittsburgh uniformed
Knights, who came down yesterday,
having misunderstood that the parade
was to occur on Wednesday. They
came on a special train over the Pan
Handle road, arriving al 1880. They
were accompanied by q band, and the
cars were decorated with steamers.
The delegation consisted OF Mt. Wash

THE SOCIAL SIDE

N
soma of the EnJoymsnts of tho Local and
visiting knights.
The only special feature last night
was a brilliant repetition OF the exhibi-
ton drill by the Parkersburg Flambeau
Club, uunder command of Capt. Baker.
1t was given specially for the benefit OF
the Pittsburgh visitors. The streets
were crowded as on the night before.
A banquet was given in honor OF the
visiting knights at Beethoven hall last
night, and the proportions it assumed
NAV be Judged from the fact that one
item OF the bill Of fare was one hundred
chickens. Coffee was the beverage.
Night before last Messrs. Paul
Prayer, OF Parkersburg, and F. Il.
Smith, OF New Cumberland, gave a
course dinner in honor OF Supreme
Chancellor W. w. Blackwell. Their
wives we're present, and n splendid
feast was enjoyed.
Brigadier Gen. J.. W. Mathers, Of

marshal OF the big parade Tuesday and
