CLARKsBURG, w. VA, October 95.-
This city tonight was the scene Of the
biggest demonstration in the history Of
Harrison county, aud there have been
very few gatherings in the State this
campaign that eclpsed it. Great pre-
parations had been made for the recep-
tion OF Mr.. Wilson and his party, al
though the affair throughout was very
largely a Howard rally, that gentle
mans name being associated with every
detail aud every mention CT its gran
deur.
The Wilson party stopped first al
Pennsboro, after leaving Parkersburg,
at 5:2O, where 800 Richie county Dem
ocrats were found assembled. Secre-
tary McAdoo spoke about fifteen min
utes.
The party arrived at ClarksburG at
7.3O. and found there the greatest DEM
ocratic demonstration Of the entire trip,
excepting the one at Wheeling, Wednes-
dav night. When the train pulled into
the depot 1000 people surrounde1 tue
cars. with TWO or three bands Of music
and many drum corps. There was
uniformed marching club from fdlr-
mont, 100 strong; a large NUMBER Of
/ borsemen from the surrounding coun-
try, and enough Democrats to make up

/ Hon. John A. Howard met Mr.. Will

red fire along the entire distancs, and

Mr.McAdoo was most enthusiastically
received and made great speech, al
/ though the audience was so large that
not over oue-half, and perhaps not one
/ third, we're within sound OF his voice
| He was followed by Mr.. Wilson, whose
reception was fattering indeed, aud
whose address was fully equal TO that

same lines OF thought He put in some
telling hits for Mr.. Howard tonight.
Friday will be spent by Mr.. Wilson al
Berkeley Springs, where ne will rest
from the very arduous work OF the past
two days.
The popularity Of Mr.. Howard in this
town and county is something without
a parallel in Democratic campaigns Ia
Harrison. He has been making a most
active campaign here, and the good re-
suits Oi 1t will be seen on election dav.

BETS FOR THE SUGAR FACTORY.
Low Fright Rates from Western

Through the courtesy of Charles E.

for the benefit of our citizens, and es-
pecially those interested in the sugar

a deep interest in the growth of this
new enterprise for western Colorado

greatly due. Though yet in its in

Salt Lake City, Utah, Dec. %.
Mr. c. Z. Mitchell, Grand Junction,
Colo:
Dear Sir-I found your letter of De-
cember II. with its accompanying in
teresting statements concerning the SUI
gar beet industry in your section
awaiting me on my return here yes
terday. The rate Of 81 per ton on the
sugar beets in carloads of not less than
10000 pounds, given your people this
year, did not seem to produce the re-
suits in tonnage for this road which
were anticipated from assurances you
had given US at the time we were in
duced to make the very low rate; on
the contrary, there were less than 100
tons in ali of beets shipped from west
ern Colorado to the Lehi factory dur
ing this year. Under your urgent So
licitation, however, we will give you
another years benefit of the same very
low freight rate, and with this mater
ial assistance on the part of this COM
pany / trust that your people may take
hold of the cultivation of the beets
with more energy than they have
heretofore shown, and thus produce re-
suits substantially encouraging the es-
adjustment and promotion of the sugar
beet industry in western Colorado I
should be glad to know how much
per ton, delivered at the factory your
people received for the beets shipped
to the Lehi factory this year. Yours
truly, S. H BABCOCK.

Perseverance,

Many writers become discouraged
after having submitted to the critical
eye of an experienced editor, some
thing supposed by the author TO be
entirely original, well written, and
deserving of space in any leading
publication, to have it returned with
thanks. And right here is where many
writers make a mistake. Whenever
you are entirely satisfied with what
you have written and submitted, you
show an egotism worthy of defeat.
AS long as your work is unsatisfactory
to yourself that is your own estima-
ton capable of being much improved,
it shows a decided element of pro-
gress. Another good point to keep
in mind is to take into consideration
how much depends on the requirements
of any certain magazine or periodical.
and submit your manuscript judi
ciously. If you are ambitious to shine
in the literary field, you must keep in
touch with the current literature of the
day, and post yourself as to Who is
most likely to accept your manuscript
The most noted writer's of the present
| day do not escape rejected manuscript
Then why should a beginner be dis
couraged. If one editor returns your
copy, to send to another, and keep 1t
travelling around until certain that II
/ is worthless. A monied consideration
is not half so valuable to beginner
as recognition by good authority.

Beaver County's Appropriation.

The appropriation has not yet been
made, and perhaps it will not be, but
the Utonian hopes such a sum will be
given for this Midwinter fair, as the
county can, and we think, should
make. Beaver county, under its pres
ent circumstances is better able today
TO make an appropriation of $500 to
this purpose than 500 cents some two
years. or less, ago. Under the efficient
management of affairs Beaver county
is fast reaching that point when its
warrants can be presented to the
treasurer and cashed at once It
simply shows what honest and jul
dicious management will do. Under
these conditions, we take it, a good,
liberal sum could be given to aid
Utah's exhibit in the Midwinter fair,
and we are inclined to believe our
selectmen and probate judge will view
this matter in the right way and do
the right thing. All the other counties
around us are making appropria tons
and doing it with liberality. and Bea-
yer has ever been known to stand in
the front ranks and it is two late in
the day for her to take a back seat

Mormon and GENTLE

About the only opposition developed in
Congress against the admission of Utah
came from Representative Morse, of
Massachusetts, goldbug of the yellowest
hue. His attack upon the people of that
territory was an insult to Gentle and
Mormon alike Living as he does in an in
telligent atmosphere of Goldfish, baked
beans and bespectacled emasculates, il
is not surprising that he was not aware
that polygamy had bean abolished.
The man who would oppose the adnlis-
sion of Utah on account of its Mormon
population and religion is either an in
tolerant or Ignorant of the situation
The sentiment of the Mormon church is
pronouEcedly against the doctrine OF
polygamy, and the younger generation
recognizing that this practice alone was
the only obstacle in their progress to full
and equal recognition as citizens alons
with the Gentiles, have strongly arrayec
themselves against it.
No thriftier of better class of citizens
people the earth today than the Mormons
and aside from church domination anc
the practice of polySamy there has never
been anything pernicious in their teach
ings. Every lingering remnant of these
evils will soon disappear and with socia
contact and intermarriage it is only
question of a short time when it will b,
difficult to determine where the Gentil,
begins and the Mormon ends.-Granc

The Utah & Nevada Extension-A
Valuable Coal Discovery.

Speaking of the Utah & Nevada rail-
road extension, the Beaver Utonian
says: "All along the route from below
Mr.. Campbell's mines, the surveyor S
stakes follow the old trail as closely as
practicable, and there seems to be a
question yet whether the Utah & Ne
vada shall make straight from the old
crossing on the Muddy for Phoebe or
take the other shoot for St. George.
The general indications are, from what
could be observed and learned, that
the cars will be running into St George
before many months The grading is
approaching closely to Good Springs.
Going by way of ST. George, the COM
pany would have considerable and very
costly grades to make, many miles of
snow sheds to build and sand cuts Of
any amount to pass through, which
are always dangerous. By way Of St.
George none of these inconvenience
will be experienced, and an easy grade
is found on the entire route. There
are some probabilities that when the
road shall have reached st. George, it
will pass on up through the settle
ments to Cedar. its objective point.
Here it is to meet the D. & r. G. COM
ing from Salina. The question now
arises whether the D. & r. G. will go
via Marysvale and Fremont Pass to
Cedar or come up Clear creek, take in
the sulphur beds, the Indian creek and
Clear creek mining camps, thence by
Beaver city TO Cedar. which latter
route, according to the judgment of
practical civil engineers who have sur
veyed both routes, claim to be more
feasible because shorter and an easier
grade, to say nothing of the advan-
| tages that will accrue therefrom in the
way Of freights and passenger traffic.
It will be to the interest of the citizens
of Beaver now to look after this mat
ter and bestir themselves, otherwise
Beaver may be left isolated.
