Spscios Je.e0r0m TO ne Sunday Register.
CHARLESTON, w. VA, May THE
heated controversy between the friends
Of Anderson and Wilson overt the ques-
tion of appointing delegates from Kan
awha county to the Congressional Con-
vention and of ascertaining the relative
strength of the two candidates in Kan
awha was happily terminated by the ac-
tion OF the County Committee in order
ing primary elections to be held on the
2lst Of this month in each OF the dis
tricts of this county. The county COM
mittee met some time ago and ordered
district mass meetings to be held to
the county convention on the 2sth, and
recommended that vote be taken in
the district mass meeting upon the Ques-
tion OF the Congressional nomination.
Mr.. Wilson and his friends sternly
opposed this action and such a
pressure was brought to bear upon the
committee by the masses OF Democrats
Of the county that that body thought
it best TO reconsider its action, and
order primary election which 1t did
at its meeting to-day. The action Of
the committee is regarded as victory for
Wilson and his friends.

About Correct.

Gives His Views OF New York CITY In the
London Times, and they Seem to be
About Correct
LONDON, May 7.-Rudyard KiplIng,
the novelist, sends to the Times his
final impressions Of New York city.
He says;
1.-The more I studied it the more gro
tesQuely bad il grew. 1t was bad in the
paving of its streets, bad in its police
management and bad in its sanitary ar
rangementS. No one that talked to
has approved the management Of New
York in a proper spirit, regarding it as
the shiitIeSS outcome Of SQuaiid barbar-
ism aud rCc6leSS extravaganza.
''NO one is likely TO do so because re-
Elections cast on long narrow pig
troughs are construed as malevolent
attacks against the spirit and the
majesty OF the great American people
and lead to angry comparisons.
Yet II all the streets Of London were
permanently torn up and all lamps
torn down, this would not prevent the
New York streets taken in lump, from
being cousins to the Zanzibar iOreshore
or kin TO the approaches OF a Kafhr
Kraal.
Zone Of these days, you are told,
everything will be taken IN hand and
put straight aud the unvirtuouS rulers
OF the city will be swept away by a
cyclone of popular Indignation. Every
body will unanimously elect the right
mer, who will justly earn the enorm-
Gus salaries at present paid to made
Quate aliens.
AT the same time the lswlessness in
grained by the Governors among the
governed during forty years Of brutal
levity OF public conscience in regard TO
public duty. the tOughening and supple
ing Of public morals, the reckless disre-
gard for human life bred by impotent
laws and fostered bY familiarity with
needless accidents and criminal neglect
will miraculously disappear.
''In heathen lands three things are
supposed TO be the pillars OF a moder-
atelS decent government. They are:
regard for human life; justice, criminal
aud civil, and good roads. Yet in this
Christian city they think lightly
OF the irst--their own pa
pers, their own speech and their
own actions prove il. They buy and
sell the second at a certain price openly
and without shame, and are apparently
content to do without the third"

CHARLESTON, W. VA, May For
years a desperate band OF moonshiners,
headed by one Pres Mullens, have ruled
with desperate sway over the mountain
regions OF Nc DOwell comfy, this State,
aud Buchanan county, Virginia.
As their following numbered hundreds
OF mOuntaineerS the many attempts OF
the revenue officere 10 suppress the
wholesale manufacture OF bad whisky
In that section were futile, and the
gang, rendered more reckless by their
apparent security, became scourge to
the decent citizens of the locality.
Rapine and riot ran unchecked until
at last the brutal and unproyOked muir
der OF James BurSe by one Of the des-
peradOes reused the government officials
20 action and posse, headed by Captain
Saunders, captured Harye Mullins after
a fierce fight He was sent 10 prison for
two years, but as the outlaws were rem
Gered yet more desperate by his cap
ture, il became evident that their leader
must be caught before they could be
discouraged.
Deputy Marshal Dan Cunningham
was selected for this work, aud he, after
a search OF six weeks, alone In that
dangerous locality, captured old Pres
Mullins, the head Of the band.
Many others surrendered then, and
Mullins'S mountains will turn out no
more whisky for awhile.
Mullins was tried for illicit 1istilling
before Judge John J. Jackson in the
United States District Court here this
week, and was sent TO jail for four
months. A big batch Of the other men,
berS of the band received varying SEN
tences. and many Of them are likely TO
tried for their other crimes when the
Federal authorities are through with
them.

Deep stirred Soil

More and more are farmers coming
TO see that fineness of surface soil en-
courages moisture, and consequent nj
triiication by capillary attraction
which largely increases the crops in
dry weather. And as there is scarce
~ a summer without dry spells it is
advisable TO prepare for these. so far
rs one can, especially as no harm is
done should there be sufficient rainfall
The season OF 1891 was remarka-
bic for drouthy spells. During it, in
teresting experiments were tried with
a plat Of cabbages. A portion was
hued often and the soil fined deeply.
Another portion was fined an inch,
and the remainder was not disturbed
except TO pull out any weeds. The
crop on the deeply-stirred portion
made an excellent growth. on the
shallow stirred about half the former
aud on that not stirred there is almost
a total failure This not only proves
the wisdom OF dust blanket" but
also that the blanket should possess
thickness. As a thick bed blanket is
warmer than thin one. provided both
are OF the same material, so a thick
dus. blanket exceeds thin nne in
effectiveness. Country Gentleman.
