PERSONAL POINTS,

Leading Lonuon papers state that
they are authorized to deny statements
recently circulated alleging that Mr.,
Ruskin Is in weak mental condition
and that he suffers from decisions that
his life is threatened. Ruskin is in
better health at present than no has
been for some years past, both mentally
and bodily. He no longer works, but
he walks every day, and takes great
interest in everything around him.

The Kingwood argus reprints an As
ISOLATED Press dispatch concerning the
state Of the United States treasury,
which appeared in every Associated
Press paper in the country on the
morning OF January II, and credits it
to the INTELLIGENcER. The dispatch,
which purported to give forecast OF
the report Of a Democratic committee,
was part Of the regular congressional
news of the morning, and was in no
sense an expression OF the papers views
on the subject,
The editor Of the argus, after credit
ing the dispatch to the ISTELLIdENcER,
dishonesty attempts to create a'wrong
impression on the minds Of its readers
in the following comment:
On our first page we republish from tho
Wheeling lNTELlIGRECER an article on the
gloomy financial outlook for the incoming, ad-
mipstraion. We give tho article, headlines
and ALL just rs It appeared In the lNTRLLIdENcER
the leading Republican paper oil the STATE; II
comes down the tree aud frankly acknowledges,
what the Democrats have been claiming all
along, that the present administration has got
ten the financial affairs oil tho government IN q
bad condition, and that the Democrats Will have
to confront not only depleted treasury, but q
big deficit, made so by the extravaganza and
enormous expenditures OF HarriSonS ADM MS
tratlon. II Is no use for our Republican irle nos
10 deny this any longer
No fair-minded Democrat has ever
charged that the condition OF the treas
ury ia due to a dishonest administra-
ton OF the finances of the country, Not
ono dollar was appropriated beyond the
needs of the government by the Repub-
lican Congress, and the appropriations
made by the present Democratic house
aggregate even a greater amount than
was expended by its Republican prede-
cessor.
The cause OF the deficit, il there is any,
is the increased demand on the treasury
to pay pensions and other legitimate
expenses, made by laws enacted by
Congress, and not by extravaganza on
the part Of the Harrison administration.
The Argus knows this to be true, and its
attempt 10 construe a news dispatch
giving forecast Of a partisan Demo-
cratic committees report into an express
sion of this newspapers views Is dis
honest journalism, and is misleading to
Its readers. gsu va

The INTELLIGENoER is not an alarmist,
but it believes in sounding warnings
when the public health is in danger,
The approach Of spring has revived, in
other cities the cholera talk, and pre-
parations to avert the danger OF an cpl
demic have begun. Too much impor-
lance cannot be attached to the matter
in view Of tho enormous amount OF
travel expected between this country
and Europe during the next ten months,
and Il behooves the city OF Wheeling
not to neglect her duty in the promises.
II due precautions are observed we need
have no fears OF an outbreak Of disease
OF any sort
First, tho citizens OF Wheeling should
see at once to tho cleansing OF theyards

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Tariff


tits announced that Mr.. Carlisle, who
is to be Mr.. Cleveland's secretary OF the
treasury will begin at once, the work OF
drafting the free trade bill which it is
expected will be passedtby' the new
Congress. The announcement is signi-
licant us it indicates that the Cleveland
administration will direct its own tariff
legislation, which will undoubtedly be
in the line of carrying out tho free trade
pledge in the platform on which the
Democracy. carried the country
Mr.. Carlisle is NOT a conservative
tariff reformer His record is one
which leans strongly toward FREQ trade,
and it may reasonably be presumed
that thebill he is preparing for Mr..
Cleveland will be on that line, SO the
country may know thus early, with
some degree OF certainty, what is to be
expected fronlthe DemorratiG'party in
the matter of tariff legislation. Those
Democrats who did not believe that the
Cleveland platform meant what it said,
that protection is a fraud and unconsti-
tutional, will doubtless have their eyes
opened within few months. The
Carlisle Cleveland bill will propose free
raw materials and a repeal of the Nc
Kinley bill. No state will suffer at its
hands more than. West Virginia.

DEAR slR;-My attention has been
called to an article which appeared in
your paper asking why it is, il the
Nicaragua canal Is only going to cost
SCI, 100000, the amended bill recently
introduced provides for an issue Of
500, 100000 Of bonds.
AS member Of the Illinois delega-
ton to the Nicaragua canal convention,
and friend OF the canal, l wish tc
state that tho bill does not so provide,
1t provides for an issue Of Sl00,000,00C
or less OF bonds, such issue TO be based
on the necessity, not to exceed $780,
100000, which may rise from time u
