We do not agree that Governor Mac

Some OF the Democratic newspapers
in criticising the Van Allen appoint
ment arc pleased to say that it is as bad
as the appointment OF Mr.. Wanamakcr
by President Harrison, neither having
been known in public life aud both be-
ing without fitness for the places to
which they were appointed. 1t is
added further thAt each bought his ap-
pointmens
The two cases arc entirely unlike.
Mr.. Wanamaker was known the coun-
try over US merchant and a man OF
affairs OF the first rank. lilo had gained
fame as the founder, organizer aud adj
ministrator OF vast business OF indeti'
mite detail. He was known as man
whose intellectual breadth took in a
wide range outside OF the business with
which his name was directly associated.
He was especially well Informed on pub
lie affairs, good type of tine business
man in politics, in which he took IN
active and intellectual interest.
Business men had long complained
that tho government did not sufficiently
avail itself of the services of practical
men Of affairs, preierring for almost
every place lawyer who had dabbled
in politics enough to get some promi-
nence. President Harrison wished TO
have capable business man in his cab
met, aud he conceived the happy
thought OF placing such man ut the
head OF the postofiicc department, which
is distinctly department OF business
coming into closest touch with the bus
mess interests OF the country.
Mr.. Wanamaker's administration oil
that important department justified the
selection. As to his purchase OF seat
in the cabinet, it does not matter what
bowling partisans may say. "A rich
man and an earnest Republican, he
contributed to his party's campaign
fund and in connection with others
helped to gather funds from other BUSH
ness men able and willing to give.
Mr.. Van Allen was utterly unknown
until he was named for the Italian
mission. Heis distinctly arich nobody.
His experience has been confined to
living in England. playing polo, eating
good dinners, figuring in the ball room
and otherwise cultivaling himself after
the manner OF men Of fashion. The dif-
ference between him and merchant OF
national distinction who has made his
way from the bottom to the top is go
plain that everybody can sec it
Another difference is that Mr.. Van
Allen paid $4,000 into the Democratic
campaign fund for the post to which
tho President nominated him, taking
the chance OF the Democratic party be-
ing able to deliver the goods. The Van
Alien case stands alone in its degrada-
ton OF high preferment.

OF West Virginia is like great number
OF other Democrats in this state. They
want to flee from the wrath to come,
which is free trade, and they don't know
any better way than to 20 back oil the
national Democratic platform. Ii it is
wise and prudent to protect the coal
industry, why cannot the theory apply
to other industrial enterprises in this
state?
Tho governor OF West Virginia was
too faithfully reported, and excuses for
his lapse from the free trade doctrines
OF his party can DO piled up mountain
high, and the fact will remain that he
wanted protection on coal, and that is
what W. L. Wilson and his cohorts OF
free trade do not want. Is it now "a

wanted, stiff breeze and rough water.

believe that tho ViCilant would be left

The result shows that in any kind Of
weather tho Vigilant is the faster boat,
and well deserves the splendid victory

means slow and handled in seaman
like manner that has compelled the ad.

because she is faster than the Valkyrie,
