One day a drop of water
lay in pool on the
city street. 1t was stained and
soiled. But looking up it saw
the blue sky, and pure heavens
and white sunbeams dancing
everywhere and began to long
for purity and nobler, worthier
life. 1t looked up into the sky
and its longing became an earn
est prayer to be made clean and
beautiful. And its prayer was
heard. Presently the little soil
ed drop was lifted up out Of the
gutter into the air-higher and
higher. Then the breeze caught
it and il was waited away, and
by and by it rested in the bosom
Of rose, drop of pure, crystal
dew. So God answers cur pray
ers for holiness. "Blessed are
they which do hunger and thirst
after righteousness, for they
shall be filled. -

AS Martinsburg is now grow
ing into a city, with modern ia
cilities and manufactures, there
should be a general desire and
effort to increase the laborers
wages. Cheap wages mean a
poor people and a poor town.
What makes the cities great and
prosperous is high wages. The
laboring classes are the ones who
spend their mOney,-buy goods,
support churches and schools,
newspapers, stores, workshops,
&c. If their wages are low they
can spend but little; they are the
only ones who do not deal in
stocks, bonds and securities, but
put their money in direct circu-
lation among the people. In the
cities house help commands So a
week, sewers $3.50 to IS; labor
ers $l.50 to 81 day ; mechanics
So to So a day, &c. There wages
go by dollars; here by quarters
and halves. The professional
men are the only ones here who
command and demand living
fees. The contractor who pays
but 81 day, could just as well
pay $3.50 or 50, for the money
does not come out of his pocket
but from men who have the mon
ey. Higher wages are best for
employer and employee. Why
does the B. & O. never cut down
salaries and fees but always the
poor mans wages? On the same
principle that the Corporation
pays a 1925 a day for hard work
and the contractor 81 for me-
chanical labor, to save at the
spigot and waste at the bung-
hole. Good wages bring pros
perity to all. Poor wages means
poverty and crime.

Hon. f. E. Beltzhoover, of Pa.
made a fair statement of the
pension question in the House
Feb. IA. He is a Democrat, but
does not approve of hanging the
pension bureau as tail to the
War Department kite. If labor,
the weather, &c, deserve a spe-
cial department, why not the
defenders of the Union. A COM
missioner of pensions was APP
pointed as early as 1888, and
why now, after the number of
pensioners is at its highest, and
the decline and decrease will
soon come, go back and start
over again
Why transfer it to the War
Department? Why designate a
colonel of the regular army and
two captains of the regular
army, who are themselves ben
eficiaries under the pension laws,
to take charge of the disburse-
ment of pensions to hundreds
of thousands OF volunteer SOL
diers, and their widows and or
phan children and dependent old
parents, and to the sailors and
militiamen, and all the various
pensioners under the laws !?
What virtre is there in a colo
mel and captains of the regular
army over the hundreds of gall
liant volunteer officers and SOL
diers who have fought all the
real great and historic battles of
the nation, and will beyond all
peradventure of doubt continue
to fight them in the future
Is not the suggestion of such
a supervision an invidious and
cowardly reflection on the intel
ligence, fidelity, courage and
patriotism of the distinguished
volunteer soldiers of the repub-
lie? The attempt to thus discred-
it the brave men who conquered
the rebellion invites the state
ment of what is well known to
every member of this House and
the country that the regular
army itself as much as any por-
ton of this Government needs
reform and rehabilitation and
revision, and bills are now pend
ing before this Congress for that
purpose.

FIRE AT CUMBERLAND Tues
day night was a dangerous time
for fires, the wind blowing a
perfect gale and everything dry
and infiamable. Mountain fires
ragged through several States.
About 8 o'clock a dispatch came
from Cumberland to the Martins
burg Fire Department for help,
as a great fire was beyond con-
troll. The engine and a supply
of hose were taken up by the De-
partment.. Two engines were
sent from Washington. Great
excitement and terror prevailed.
The streets were packed with
people and goods. Two fires rag
ed at one time. By midnight
the spread of the two fires was
stopped. In Shantytown seven
buildings were destroyed.
Among those who lost property
were A. Lear, Mr.. Goetz, D. G..
Vickey, Germans saloon, D. E.
Kean. j. j, Derr, Jr. l.. Herman,
jos. Greenfield, Mrs. White, T.
L. Coulehan, w. G. White Lum-
Der Co., and many offices and
families suffered. Merchandise
and household goods were dam
aged and destroyed. The loss is
placed at from 5000, 900 to $780,
600.
Eleven buildings were destroy
ed. One man named Carlos is
missing, and probably was burn
ed. There is great distress, fam
lilies being out of homes and no
place to go. Loss $l50,000. In
surance sos, 900, estimated.
The finest law library in West
ern Maryland, perhaps the best
in the State, was consumed in
the fire. 1t was the property of
Mr.. w. E. Walsh, and once be-
longed to the late lamented VIM.
Walsh. The worst is it cannot
be restored.

The Spl ing

Of all seasons in the year, is the one for
making radical changes in regard to
health. During the winter, the system
becomes clogged with waste, and the
blood loaded with impurities, owing to
lack of exercise. close confinement in
poorly ventilated shops and homes. and
other causes. This is the cause Of the
dull, sluggish, tired feeling SO general at
this season, and which must be overcome
or the health may be entirely broken
down. Hood 8 Sarsaparilla has attained
the greatest popularity all over the coun-
try as the favorite Spring Medicine. 1t
expels the accumulation of impurities
through the bowels, kidneys. liver, lungs
and and skin, gives to the blood the pur-
ity and quality necessary to good health
and overcomes that tired feeling.

President Cleveland is hard to
understand. He has made some
good rules and promisas, can he
carry them out? Can he get
ahead of the politicians and of
fice-seekers and carry out the
principles of the people? Good
advice is cheap but it takes an
iron hand to put it in practice.
Will the money powers and the
machine politicians govern or be
governed? Will they not rule at
the end of his term if he does
rule at the beginning? He has
appointed new men,-some able
men, incapable and I'M
worthy men. He has fought
against appointing relatives and
friends, but many of the Sena-
tors, Congressman, and State Of
ficials, and even himself, have
their sons, relatives and friends
in office. He has declared the
country in peril, the people OPP
pressed, and instead of any new
laws he is in antagonism with
his own party and the Senate be-
cause he cannot have his own
way. He will either be the big
gest President we ever had, or
the httlest, either the greatest
statesman or the grandest fizzle.
F5nis cOrOnat opus. The laboring
classes have been deceived, the
condition of the country misrep-
resented, the principles of the
Republic sacrificed to foreign
prejudice and ignorance, by the
Democratic politicians, all for Of
fee. They have all they can get.
What will the harvest be? Bor-
rowing money already. Fighting
inter Sc now. Rivalry and jeal-
ousy, greed and sectionalism
and partisanism rampant. Mr..
Cleveland has our sympathy and
support. If he comes out all
right with the great Ship of State
from the breakers that roll noun
tain high and swell from the At
lantic to the Pacific, he is a born
leader, the Washington of the
Second Century of American
government. If he fails or gives
in or knuckles under, he is a
blow-house and pretender and
self-seeker who will merit but
contempt and ridicule from a de-
luded people.
