What a Minister Said Of the Local
Paper.

"Your paper tells you when to go
to church, to county court, when to
send your children to school, or any
where you want to go. II tells you
who is dead, who is sick, who is mar
ried, who is born, and many other
things you would like to know. 1t
calls attention to public enterprises
and advocates the best schools, law
and order for your town. 1t records
the marriage of your daughter, the
death of your son and the illness of
your wife, free Of charge. 1t sets
forth the advantages and attractions
of your town and invites immigration
and is the first to welcome newcom-
ers. Yet in spite of all these bene-
fits, some people say that the home
paper is not half so good as some
city paper that has no interest in
their business or success"

WEST VIRGINIA COKE.
A New Market For it in Far OF Mexico.

An interesting and timely article
in recent number of the Sun draws
attention to new export industry,
recently established in Baltimore,
which is already hourishing and
promises to play an important part
in the development of our export
trade. The industry in question is
the shipping of West Virginia coke
to the silver mining region of Next
co.
In the reduction of silver ores
coal cannot be employed to advan-
tage, since the gases generated by
its combustion injure the quality Of
the product. The ideal fuel for
smelling purposes is one that gives
a fierce heat and emits no gases.
These requirements are most salts
factorily met by coke, and since
there are no eoking Goals in Mexico
the miners there are forced to look to
foreign countries for their supply.
England for long time enjoyed a
virtual monopoly of this trade, but
during recent years Alabama has
entered the field and has sent to
Mexico and the Central American
States large quantities of coke. The
Alabama grades Of coke are distinct
ly inferior, however, to those of
West Virginia, and there is every
reason to believe that the coke ex-
porting industry will develop into
one of the leading features of our
shipping trade.
Elk Senator Henry G. Davis and
his associates, who have founded the
new industry, were the pioneers in
opening up the great coal deposits
of West Virginia. Others have fol-
lowed in their footsteps, and the
State is now taking a high rank
among the coke and coal producers.
An incalculable wealth of coal still
remains UNEMPLOYED, however, and
when the virgin coal fields shall
have been fully developed West Vir
ginla will, no doubt, enjoy the lar
gest coal trade of any State in the
Union.
The coal district of West Virginia
is naturally tributary TO Baltimore,
and the development of its riches
will bring with it great increase
in Baltimore's business and pros
perity. The Mexican export trade
which is now in its infancy, will
flourish and increase and before
long Baltimore will doubtless com
pete with England in other coun-
tries as well. The enterprise of the
Davis Coke Company has opened up
new field which promises to be
rich and fruitful to Baltimore as
well as to the company itself.

The Senators who-had been drawn

The Senators who-had been drawn
into that compromise agreement with
the expectation that it would unite
all factions of their party, and who
felt themselves deceived and disap-
pointed, were angry for time, but
there was nothing for them to do but
to face the situation. They found
that the President was still where he
had always been, on the side of the
country, and strenuously opposed to
every kind of makeshift. Silver dem
ocrats could do nothing against that
immovable back bone; the republi-
cans could hope to make no party
capital out of the division of their
opponents while their authorized rep
resentative stood unchangeably for
honest money, and even the Western
extremists recognized at last that
their obstinate and fruitless OBJ
struction had become odious to all
parties alike, and without possibility
of profit to themselves.

every salutation, dealing and new
experience seems so unaffected, hon
est and genial; that you move for
ward in each days doings as in an
atmosphere of beniticent hearthside
calm.
Probably the most characteristic
scene in Bergen is down here at the
Tory, of a Saturday morning. This
is the ancient fish-market. 1t is an
open space in the quay, precisely
like the fishmarket at Newhaven,
Edinburg, Plymouth, England; Gal
way, Ireland; but few fish are
brought ashore. The stalls are the
jagts or fishing boats, and there are
no bowling fishwives. Hundreds of
peasants from the surrounding coun-
try, crossed in the peculiar costumes
of their respective districts come to
Tory to sell vegetables, cheese, but
ter, eggs, fowls and many rude arti-
Giles of home manufacture. Mingling
with these are the honest house
wives and maid servants of the city.
1t is CHEEKY, chatty, hearty
crowd; all life, animation and gen
iality; glittering with quaint old gilt
and silver ornaments; colorful from
bright garters, gaudy bodiees, saffron
and scarlet shoulder ribbons, lus-
trous braids of yellow hair, snowy
white caps, and head kerchiefs CLINT
ing with silver gimps or fine old en-
broidery. Every woman who comes
to buy fish carries a shining tin
pail or scuttle, often ornamented in
gaudy colors. The fishermen stand
ing in their boats say never word.
They are the most silent and sodden
statesmen you ever knew. The
women do all the bartering and
chatting When satisfactory price
is reached, the fish is tossed up to
the buyer, and the coin exchanged.
And so with pleasant badinage from
the quay and utter solemnity in the
boats the sales go on. But think of
fresh cod, salmon, mackerel and tur-
bot selling at the Bergen Tory at
but from four to six cents per pound
There is also an interesting dis
trict of Bergen lying between the
Strandgade and the harbor. One
never tires of this, for narrow thor
oughfares lead down to the bay, in
which are strange projecting roofs,
huge diamond-paned windows, shad-
owy colonnades, clumsy balconies
and drowsy echoes of endless water
side traffic. On the Strandgade it
self there are snowy shops to
barter in, ancient shops into which
curiously carved stairs ascend or de-
cend, aud museum-like shops where
old silver, Norway carved woods, furs
and all odd manner of keepsakes
may be bought. It is here that all
day long-and nearly all night long,
for it is still daylight in Bergen sum
mer-t time between eleven and twelve
o'clock at night-move to and fro the
placid pleasant throngs. Among
them are the peasantry, from Saeter-
dial, from Hardinger, from Thele-
mark, from Evanger and from the
outlying islands. These more than
all else give color and character to
ancient Bergen town, and you grow
impatient to follow them over the
mountains to their lonely homes
among the sombre fiords, beside the
misty waterfalls and within the
slumberous upland dals.

How To Succeed.

Our contemporary, the Martins
burg World, presents an old and
thoroughly recognized principle in
few words which gives the secret Of
success in life. 1t says:
Twenty clerks in store, twenty
hands in printing Office, twenty ap
prentices in ship-yard, twenty
young men in yillage-all want to
get along in the world, and expect to
do 3d. One of the clerks will be-
come partner, and make fortune;
one Of the compositors will own a
newspaper,Sand become an influen-
tial citizen; one of the apprentices
will become master builder; one of
the young villagers will get hand
some farm, and live like patriarch
but which one is the lucky indi-
vidual? Lucky? There is no luck
about it, The thing is almost as
certain as the rule of three. The
young fellow who will distance his
competitors is he who masters his
business, who preserves his integri-
ty, who lives clearly and purely,
who devotes his leisure to the acqui-
sition of knowledge, who gains
friends by deserving them, and who
saves spare money. There are some
ways to fortune shorter than this
old dusty highway but the staunch
man of the community, the man who
achieves something really worth
having-good fortune, good name,
serene old age-goes in this hard
dusty road.
Keep strict account of both pro-
fits and expenses; he careful to keep
the first in advance of the last until
the point ofindependence is reached,
and you will certainly avoid the
dreadful fate heretofore so common
to nine-tenths of the foolish voyagers
upon the uncertain sea of business.
Let your industry never grow
weary; keep your faithful servant,
economy, ever on guard, and should
no unforeseen disaster overwhelm
you, your voyage will most surely
be successful one.

Senator Hill has endearcd himself

Senator Hill has endeared himself
to all good Americans. He came out
boldly favoring change in the
senate rules. The way the rules are
now, unlimited debate is allowed on
any question. By this unlimited
debate the minority had the MAORI
ty down for quite time. The ques.
tion could not be put to vote. Had
there been the change Senator Hill
advocated there would not have been
the weary weeks of waiting in the
repeal matter, nor the senatorial
discourtesy," nor violation of its
traditions nor none of that tom
foolery. The senate would not have
received the almost universal up
braiding that the entire press and
people gave it. Times would have
been better long ago il the debate
had stopped when it should have,
and vote taken. There was a
great deal of most valuable time lost
which would not have been with :
change in the rules.

While the repeal of the purchasing
clause of the Sherman law will re-
move the cause which has contribut-
ed most to bring the treasury into
its present embarrassment, it will do
nothing to Immediately relieve that
embarrassment, which is undouhled-
~ great. An issue of bonds would
be the quickest and surest way out
of the difficulty, but this is an expe-
dent which the administration is,
for obvious reasons, 10th to adopt
and will not adopt until all others
available have been tried.
One course which might be adopt.
ed is the coinage Of the seigniorage
in the treasury, amounting to about
$51, 100000 This was authorized
by the German compromise, which
went to pieces on Sunday. Notwith-
standing this failure, it may still be
done
1t is understood that Secretary
Carlisle holds he has the right under
the third section of the Sherman law
to coin the bullion in the treasury,
and of course it follows he has a
right to coin the seigniorage or treas
ury profit on this bullion also. BY
beginning this coinage he could at
once draw against the seigniorage
for current expenses and thus stop
the drain now going on from the gold
reserve for that purpose.
If this course is taken by the Sec
rotary the present pinch may be got
through without issuing bonds, and
as times improve the gold reserve
will be rapidly built up again.

In all the columns of eulogy be-
slowed upon Carter Harrison, Chica-

out like letters of gold upon a black
background-He was a man of the
people and was always proud of it
and it should be chiselled upon the
monument which his thousands of
admirers will surely erect to his
memory.
