Don't go to Law.

The lawyers say there is much less lit
igato on now than formerly. They attri-
butte it partly to the more general educa
ton CT the masses. They are learning
that it don't pay to go to law. 1t has
been found that most differences can be
arbitrated and settled much more salts.
factorily every way.
It should always be remembered that
when matter is taken into the COURTS,
the decision has to be left to men after
all, and their judgment is no better than
that of disinterested men selected to effect
q compromise. The arbitrators can be
known to be men of intelligence, and
with high sense of justice; while q
judge or some ofthe jurymen before whom
the case would 60 into court, may care
nothing about Justice.
The best feature about arbitration is
the absence of the professional lawyer,
whose principal mission seems to be to
stir up bad blood and delay the case, not
in the interest of Justice, but to increase
his fees. The ordinary professional law

ing the reputation of his clients opponent
By the time this is INDUCED in on both
sides, enough bad feeling has been engen'
dered to make lifetime enemies of the
litigants.
Nor is this all when the claws delays"
are ended-when the lawyers allow the
farce to end, it will be found that the
parties to the suit are worse enemies than
ever, and both, as rule-counting time
and fees-are in worse financial condition
than when the suit began. BY the time
"Justice is satisfied" the surplus ducats
have been transferred to the lawyers
pockets, and they laugh in their sleeves
at the folly of those by whose patron.
age their profession is sustained.
Wise men will stay out OF the courts,
and, instead, will settle their differences,
if they have any, by submitting the case
to committee of good, intelligent peace
makers, iu their own community. This
is the best and cheapest plan, and
leaves the contending parties better
friends than ever.-Journal Of Agricul

Ingalls, on the Negro.

Ex-senator ingalls,, In recent articls,
declares that the negro is failure in this
country-a failure as slave and fail.
ure as citizen. He says:
The South is ''solid" because of the
negro. The north is silently sullen be-
cause of the negro. The dead line of the
republic divides the sections as palpably
now as in 1861, because of the negro.
Democratic SUCCESS arouses jealously and
distrust in the North, as Republican sue.
cess excites terror and trepidation in the
South, because of the negro. Slavery is
dead, secession is dead, the Union is re-.
stored, but in sentiment, in sympathy. in
vital national spirit, we are not blend
ed, assimilated, homogeneous people.
Nationality is in the North. The South
is isolated, because of the negro.
1t is the deliberate judgment of this
Statesman out of a job that the best in
terest of the nation require the bapish-
ment of the blacks to Africa, whether
they are willing to go or not.
The South seems fated to suffer from
problems manufactured by Outsiders who
do not understand the situation. But for
outside interferencs, gradual emancipa-
tion would have ended slavery more than
a genation ago. Unfortunately, the
sword settled the matter, and the con.
querors gave the elective franchise to the
ex slaves, not because they were fit to-
exercise it, but because the Southern
whites were opposed to it. The expert
meut has disappointed the party respon.
sible for it, and now Mr. Ingalls, and
other Republicans are doing their level
best to force a race problem upon the
South which would never be thought of
if cur people were let alone.
The negro is getting along very com.
fortably in this section. He is barred out
of no occupation, and he is accumulatiDg
property, while the whites tax themselves
heavily for his education. The two races
dwell together on the most friendly
terms. The Southern whites have no
desire to see their black neighbors leave
the country, and the cruel policy of ban.
ishing them finds no favor here. 1t is
reserved for the Republicans of the North
to make suggestion, and it is confession
on their part that the negro will not be
blindly led by them any longer.
If the outsiders will mind their own
business there will never be any race
problem in the South. There is room
here for the blacks, employment for
them, and happy future. Mr.. Ingalls,
may speak for the North, but he certain.
ly does not voice Southern sentiment.
Down this way the Russian idea of ban
ishing and deporting any class of our
population will never receive serious con.
sideration.-Atanta Constitution.

Importance OF the Bacteria,

"We must not think too hardly of bac.
teria," says DR.. q. W. Conn, of Middle
town Wesleyan University. 'lt is true
that they are the causes of evil, that they
produce disease; but 1t is also true that
they do good. They are our enemies,
but they are also our closest allies. 1t is
true that without them We could not
have our smallpox nor our yellow fever,
we could not have our diphtheria nor our
scarlet fever, neither should we have any
of the epidemics. But when We remem-
Der that it is through the agency Of these
organisms that we bake the loaf of bread
that comes to our table; that the i'm
mense brewing industries connected with
the manufacture of alcoholic liquors are
possible; that without them We could
not get our vinegar or our Tactic acid
that without them we could not make
our ensilage; that these bacteria give the
butter maker the aroma of his butter /;
that it is the decomposition products of
the bacteria that the cheese manufacturer
sells in the market; when We remember
their agency as scavengers, how it is that
they keep the surface of the earth clean
and in constant condition for the
growth of plant; their value to the soil
in decomposing the dead bodies of ami
mails and plants, and thus enabling the
same material to be used over and over
again for the support of life; and lastly,
that it is only through their agency that
plants were originally enabled to get
hold of nitrogen at all, and that We may
hope for continuance of a supply of nj.
trogen to the SOLVE will recognize that
the power of bacteria for good far out
weighs their power for evil"

OUT OF POLITICS.
Ex-Congressman Ben. Wilson Talks
About a New Railway Enterprise.

Ex-Congressman Ben. Wilson,
of Harrisburg, w. Va, arrived in

this morning, and is registered at

eight years since he served in
Congress, and he says he is now
about through with politics. He
thinks that the old Democratic
States like West Virginia should
not expect so much in the way of
presidential appointments. The
country is now growing, new
States are being admitted to the
Union and all of them must have
some recognition, therefore, many
federal offices were distributed
among the leaders in the old
Democratic States are being
served out to all sections of the
country. All must be accommo-
dated.
The people of our section, said
Mr.. Wilson, are now interested in
a new railway line which is be-
ing surveyed through the town.
/ understand it is an extension Of
the Pittsburg, Virginia add Char
lesion road, or the Monongahela
division of the Pennsylvania. 1t

Brownsville and will give us d.

finest timber tracks in the coun-
try, Rich coal fields sunderly

ment. If the truth were
known / believe the coal fields of
West Virginia are fully as rich as
those of Pennsylvonia. There is

tory in our State, and we arejust
beginning to realize how richly
nature has endowed the soil on
which welive. Work has already
