WEST VIRGINIA.
Governor MaeCorkle Sets Forth Its Pro-
gress and Prospective Greatness.

The last issue of Harper's Weekly
contains "A Symposium of Southern
Governors. The following is the
contribution by Governor MaeCor
kle, of this state:
I'm national convention ten years
ago newspaper reporter mentioned
a reealeitrant member as hailing
from the little wild State of West
Virginia Would that be true to
day? The State is three times lar
ger than Massachusetts,. In West
Virginia there is the largest nail
mill in the world. There are inyes
ted in the industries of Wheeling
alone $l0,000,000, with annual sales
aegregating $50,000,000 In 1880
railroad mileage was 691 miles: in
1892 it was 1,700-the second State
in the Union in railroad building.
In 1880 the Big Iujun' sand was
not touched; today the oil outputs
625,000 barrels per month-the sec
ond oil-producing State The rich
Gordon and Berea sands only touch
in two places. The Sistersville field
is today the greatest oil-producing
field. In 1880 we produced 1,404,-
COS tons of coal; 1892 produced L.
7I0,SS8 tons making the fonrth coal
producing State. In 1880 we pro-
duced l21, 7I5 tons of coke; 1892, l.
3l3,66S tons, making the second
coke State. New River coke outsells
Connellsville coke in Chicago. 1.-THE
great Pittsburg seam has been
scarcely touched We have 10000
square miles of Goals, making our
coal area the greatest.
ain the Flat-Top region in 1880
there was nothing but a wilderness.
Last year the coal output was 1900,
900 tons; the coke more than 400, :
900 tons. We have the largest area
of hardwood in the Union, good iron
ore, fine glass sand and salt water,
splendid building stone.
Our taxes are only 81 mills on
the dollar for State purposes. Our
school system is excellent With
less than million people we spent
last year 81, 100000 for education.
The State has not dollar Of debt.
Our natural resources Of forest,
farm and mine are boundiess, our
people rapidly progressive. We have
low taxes, salubrious climate; no
locusts, grasshoppers, cyclones or
droughts.
1--WE offer The heartiest welcome
to our Northern and Eastern friends
desiring to change their homes.
This welcome is especially extended
to the small farmer. For him, in
our fertile soil, is every possible
hope of success. both in regular az
riculteral lines and in fruits. The
State is the gateway between the
West and the North, and it is right
at the market"

Ii the Republicans of Mouongalia
really want to gain what might be
termed ''local Immortality" let them
bear down on their county court and
make that body buy the suspension
bridge. If a Republican candidate
for commissioner were to say he
would favor the purchase he could
get the countys solid Democratic
vote. It's the free bridge we want.

1t is an "off year" There is never
any logic in the events of off years.
Republicans who admit so little adj
NIT this. The campaign in every
state that held elections was local.
National issues were eliminated.
There is no doubt of il. It's too long
till another election for the issues to
have been national. Last year the
people voted for a change in tariff
laws. There has been no congress
in session since to make the change,
so it can be seen the people don't go
back on their original proposition.
The new dominion. [volume] (Morgantown, W. Va.) 1876-1904, 1893-11-25

An exchange truly inquiries: .Ad-
hitting that the hard times, the
hosts of idle men, the stoppage of
mills were due to the tariff scare,
suppose the scare doesn't last, what
then? If this time next year, with
tariff reform an accomplished fact,
1.-THE times" should be booming,
would Mckinley or Cleveland be en-
titled to the credit-the Democrats
or the Republicans? On the logic
of this campaign the glory for every
improvement in business will belong
to the Democrats. A mill started
in Chicago the other day with some
5000 employees in the face of the
fact that tariff reduction is coming
nearer with every sonrise 1t is one
instance of many.

VOLUME XVIII.

Bob McEldowney says that the
ROSTERS this year are scarce and sol
emn in aspect, while coons are fat
and plentiful. In another paragraph
he says that the Republican victor
les were all in Republican states.

Mr.. McKinley's carrying Ohio is
like the Dutch taking Holland, but
1t causes his admirers TO nominate
him for the presidency in 1896.
Tariff reformers would wish no bet
ter luck than that. So long as the
republican party clings to protection,
so long the people will keep a club
for it.

Dun's commercial report issued
on Saturday last said there was
marked improvement in all direc-
tons since the election. AS only
one business day could intervene
between the final count of the vote
and the issuance of the Dun circuiar,
it is pretty easy to see that the Dun
Commercial Agency is little short of
a republican political annex. And
what is worse is the fact that there
was no truth in the report.-,Senti-
mel.

Can't Sometimes Always Tell.

Speaking of the inmates of the
Western Penitentiary, the Pittsburg
Post says: "One of the guards re
marked that the men who are noted
as desperadoas are usually the east
est prisoners to handle. He said
Ramsey and the Cooleys are inoffen-
sive- looking people Visitors often
ask to have these men pointed out to
them. and they think the guards are
tricking them when the real men are
shown"

There will be no change in the
political complexion of the United
States Senate as a result of the
late election The terms of Sena-
tors Wilson, CT Iowa, Republican;
Hunton, Virginia, and Lindsay,
Kentucky, Democrats, expire. The
Legislatures elected will choose
men of the same political tenden-
cies as their successors. AT present
the United States Senate consists of
forty three Democrats, thirty nine
Republicans, three Populists and
three vacancies, the States of
Montana, Washington and Wyom-
ing having but one Senator each,
owing to the failure of their Legis-
latures to elect and the decision of
the United States Senate that the
Governors could not appoint to fill
the vacancies.
The Mercantile Trust and Deposit
Company of Baltimore has been die
ering with the officials of the state of
Virginia with view to settling " hat
is sometimes ignoranily termed West
Virginia's share of the Virginia debt.
The Baltimore Company is to fix the
entire business up. Il now comes
forward to say that the entire bust
ness is all fixed satisfactorily. So
that West Virginia can now tell inst
exactly how much she owes. Ofcourse
West Virginia did not have nor ie
she to have any voice in the matter
They fixed it so nicely, you know.
Truly, it is the checklist piece OF
business it has been the privilege OF
any body to see for a long time. Nc
trouble was taken to secure West
Virginia's consent to the arrange
ment. 1t wouldn't have been given
had IL been asked 1t shows better
than anything that has occurred OF
late how conceited and self satisfied
the state of Virginia may become
sometimes The settlement OF that
question will come about when West
Virginia has little say in the mat
ter.
