COMMISSIONER LoCHREN's ruling on
the Disability Act Of 1890 is fair alike
TO the taxpayers and to the old soldiers.
Hereafter under this act inability to re-
sort to manual labor will call for the
maximum rate. Partial disability to
earn living By manual labor will call
for less. II, in the latter case, a higher
rating is afterwarj sought the applica-
ton shall be considered as q claim for
increase aud not because Of a new disa-
bni,y, and the increase, ifallowed, will
commence from the date Of the medical
examination showing the increased dis
ability. No honest old soldier will ask
more than this.

AN EVENING OF PURE ENJOYMENT.
A very large audience assembled at
the Opera House, last evening, TO wit
ness the performance Of Jane" and
from the hilarity Of the occasion, they
were real glad they had come. 1t was
an evening of unalloyed enjoyment,
and laughter and applause was the
standing order. The curtain raiser
was ''Chums," clever skit, which well
prepared the way for the comedy OF the
evening. Jane" is more than clever
it IS an inspiration in the way OF light
comedy, and the company with which
Miss Yeamsns has surrounded herself
is worthy of the play.
THE vooDoO.
Among the coming attractions at tho
Opera House is the laughing farce
comedy success THE VoodOo," which
made such hit here last season. Thos.
4. Murray the eminent Irish comedian
Is the star of the organization. The
Voodoo will be seen at the Opera Hou Sc
next Friday night.
APRIL FOOL.
Gus Williams humor is as oil upon
the troubled sea of thought. ''Ii, )" said
a noted doctor, theatres were more
prescribed instead OF pills and plasters,
there would be fewer hypochondracs.
Healthful laughter is as good as health
full sea air and easier and cheaper for
the many to obtain" II good comedi-
ans are born and not made, then Cps
Williams must have patent on the
birthright as the stage does not seem TO
produce two of his kind and genius.
THE DIAMOND BREAKER.
1.-THE Diamond Breaker" new melo-
drama by Scott Marble, will open a
three nights engagement at the Grand
next Monday night. 1t has been pro-
duced throughout the East, and, ac-
cording to the press, is an unqualified
success, giving new characters and some
original and startling mechanical de-
vices. Etelke Wardell plays the hero
inc, supported by an excellent company.
OUR COUNTRY COUSIN.
Another fair sized audience witnessed
the second performance Of the funny
rural play, "Our Country Cousin" at
the Grand last night. Mr.. Jones made
another hit, and the rest of the com
pany are all very pleasing. The
scenery is good, and the play full OF
strong situations and pleasing climaxes.
1t will oe repeated at the matinee to-
day and tonight.

rnn NEw TABLE I'LL.

The New York Herald has managed
to obtain what is said to be an outlin
Of the forthcoming tariff bill. II the
outline is true there is not a legitimate
industry, nor a manufacturer in the
United States who will not gladly in
dOrse it in every particular, for an in
tslllgent inspection shows that it will
ipiure none and benefit all.
Republican demagOgues in West Vir-
GINA will, Of course, claim that the
policy Of free raw material will cause
the coal, the lumber, the salt and the
iron-ore industries to 90 out of exist
ence-to vanish. They have protested
that this result must inevitably follow
tariff reform. That is, they claim, that,
although America is richer than any
other country in the world in these raw
materials, which can be had particu-
larly in West Virginia, simply
for the taking, we will be
prevented from taking them from
Mother Earth's bountifuT bosom if the
tariff duty is removed from the foreign
article.
The truth is, the latter cannot COM
pete on any basis with our own pro-
ducts-the tariff, in this case, is simply
a bolster, not to the wages OF labor, but
to mouopolies. It gives no encourage
ment nor aid to the miner. the forester,
or the salt producer, whose wages are
always at rock bottom, while it pre-
vents the American manuiacturer-the
only customer Of the American pro-
Queer Of raw material from competing
in the worlds markets. Give the Amer
lean manufacturer his raw material at a
cost not enhanced by trust and he
will not only beat the world but he will
need and buy at least double the amount
Of raw material he now uses. As for
the wages Of labor, that has no cOnnec-
ton with the question whatever, for
Canadian coal miners are paid as good
wages as Americans miners, II not bet
ter. We all know what the effect of the
tariff has been on wages, not only Of
the producers Of the raw material but
of the makers Of the finished product
We all know that wages have been
gradually lowered since the adoption
thirty years ago of the Republican
policy Of tariff taxation Of the many for
the benefit Of the few. Not only has
the wage-earner suffered but also nine
tenths of those who twenty-five years
ago were prospecting as manufacturers,
to say nothing OF The American con-
sumer who has borne the heaviest end
OF the tariff burden-and the American
consumer includes every man, woman
and child in America.
1t is on its face, the utmost absurdity
to suppose that any foreign country
could compete with this, the naturally
richest country in the world in
the production Of raw materials,
particularly on our own territory.
The manufactures made from these
raw materials-and many manu-
features are even now sold abroad at
half the price charged American con-
sumers-coul6 be manufactured much
cheaper and our foreign markets ex-
tended and enlarged In ever quarter OF
the globe were these materials cheaper
ed 60 the manufacturer, while the enor-
nous increase Of consumption Of these
raw materials which must surely follow
would create an unprecedented boom at
mine and forest as we'll az at the mill
and factory, for the success Of one is
the success OF the other.

GOYERNOR JAOOR.

The news Of the sudden death of
Gov. JOHN J. JACOB yesterday, will
be received throughout West Vir-
ginia with sorrow and regret. Gov.
JACOB was probably as we'll known to
the general public as any other man con-
nected with the history Of the State, with
which, in fact, his life was identified.
He was the drst Democratic governor
Of West Virginia, and was reelected,
though not the regular Democratic
nominee, for second term.
He ran as an independent Democrat,
and his election over great odds showed
in what high esteem the people of the
State regardless Of party, held him.
BE has since served West Virginia
faithfully and well, in the Legislature
and on the bench.
lie was q man among men, he made
enemies, Of course, but there will not be
one Of them who will not in truth honor
his memory and really regret his death
as loss to the bar and to the
State. His friends, whom he num-
bered by thousands in almost every
walk Of life, will mourn the less
not only Of an able aud upright public
man, bat OF one whom many loved as
pc. sonal friend and whom many others
respected and admired.
The circumstance Of his death is sad
and distressing, but his mission was not
left unfulfued.
