Of the text was founded in a feeling of
homesickness. do not know how long this
young man, how many months. how many
years, he had been away from his fathers
house: but there is something about the
reading Of my text that makes me think he
was homesick. Some OF you know what
that feeiing is. Far away IRON home some
times surrounded by everything bright and
pleasanu-plenty of friends--you have said,
~ would give the world to be home to-

sick for his fathers house. / have no doubt
when he thought Of his fathers house he said,
'tNow perhaps father may not be living"
We read nothing in this story-this par.
able founded on every day lite-we read
nothing about the mother. It says nothing
about going home to her. I think she was
dead. ! think she had died OF broken
heart at his wanderings, or perhaps he had
gone into dissipation from the fact he could
not remember loving and sympathetic
mother. A man never gets over having lost
his mother. Nothing said about her here,
but he is homesick for his fathers house.
He thought he would just like to 60 and
walk around the old place. He thought h'
would just ike to 60 and see il things were

ParEerSburd Safe Journal
Mr.. H. @. Henderson, the Democratic
candidate for state senate, is posing in
the back counties as a horny-handed son
of toll and representative farmer.
Mr.. Henderson is a man Of large
wealth, a heavy national bank stock
holder and director in one of our Park
ersburg banks, lives in n twelve or IF
teen thousand dollar brick mansion,
raises and operates blooded stations
and produces peacock feathers. A re-
ward was once offered by Parkersbure
merchants for proof that he ever traded
in this city or in West Virginia. His
well known penchant is to get every
thing in Ohio. 1t was discovered that
while it was not susceptible OF proof
that he ever bought straw hat or any.
thing OF like value in Parkersburg, yet
he subscribed and paid one dollar a
year to the Parkeraburg Democratic or,
gan and gets his horse books
printed in Marietta. 1t is sufficient,
perhaps, to state that Mr.. Henderson
does not belong to the class OF farmers
that our back county farmers SO fondly
imagine that he does.

the prize ring. To the ordinary mind
the difference is not logical, but it is
sufficient to bring the exhibitions up to
the high moral level Of the Olympic
Club Of New Orleans and other similar
organizations of gentlemen of the first
class.
1t is encouraging to know that if the
bouts oi.this week neet with the public
support expected by the Olympic it is
the intention Of that club OF reformers
to make a masterful effort to elevate the
prize ring to still higher standard, SO
that it may have about 1T nothing to
offend the most iastidious taste and
shall become matter Of national pride
and general rejoicing.
In view OF the positive progress that
has been made it would be rash to pre-
dict anything less than complete sue
cess for this daring experiment.

The Now Ballot In Arkansas

4ho Nc" DhAAOb Az EAEAduSNss
In Arkansas the Australian ballot de-
develops phenomen already witnessed
elsewhere. Under the law voters una
BILE to prepare their ballots may have
them prepared by officers present for
the purpose. Many illiterate voters do
not like to make confession Of their ig-
norance and therefore remain away
from the pools.
In Arkansas this feeling of pride
seems to have struck the negroes as a
cyclone. How much it was encouraged
by the Democrats does not appear.
How far the same feeling may operate
under the new law in West Virginia,
and which party is to suffer most by it,
only the result can show.
There is not large colored vote in
this state, and the illiterates among
colored voters are likely to be at least
offset by the illiterate white Democrats

Elsewhere will be found the offer Of
Messrs. Charles Trench & Co., Of New
York, to furnish any kind and quality
of American tin plate that may be de-
sired and "at foreign import prices or
less" They are the selling agents Of
the Norristown Tin Plate Works, at
Norristown, Pennsylvania. They de-
sire it understood that they are "not
offering American tin plate curiosities,"
but are in the business to furnish high
grade American tin in carload lots on
q business basis.
The late Saul of Tarsus did not ex-
perience a more remarkable conversion
than has come over these gentlemen.
They have been at the head Of the tin
plate importing trade of this country.
Fearing that the industry might get a
footing in the United States by reason
OF the Mckinley act, they did their
best to discourage the planting OF the
industry.
When it began to grow they joined
with other hostiles to ridicule it out OF
existence. They Organized the Aineri-
can Tin Plate Consumers Association
to make an assault in force on the pro-
tective duty. Nothing that they knew
how.to do was left undone to hold the
American market for the foreign manu-
facturer. But if the foreign product is
done for they are ready to fall in line.
Their business is to sell tin plate, and
SO they get on the band wagon before
it is too late.
When the Messrs. Trench & Co. offer
for sale American tin plate of any kind,
in carload lots, it is a reasonable pre-
sumption that tin plate is being made
in America. II tin plate is being made
in this country, it would seem to settle
the question whether it can be made
here. Will the Register take note Of
these things and govern itself accord,
ingly?
