West Virginia is not the only state
in the union that suffers from the
ownership of land by alien compan-

are owned by non residents. Some
of them have 10000 acres while
tracts of $4,000 to 10000 acres are
not uncommon. These lands are
principally timber and swamp lands
and will remain uuimproved as long
as their present owners hold them.

He Was n Little Previous.

The balmy weather of earlier March
brought out the spring editor of the
Hagerstown Mail. He at once shed
his coat of winter Mail and put ON a
bran new suit of spring Mail. He
entirely forgot the possibility that
old Boreas might return and deliver
ed himself thusly:
"Once more the luscious season of
rejuvenescent year is here and in the
veins of old mother earth is bubbling
the effervescent juice that will soon
burst out into delicate verdure and
flower in the gorgeous colors of the
stars of earth's armament.
ALREADY are the birds hilarious

the curtains of the dawn folded back
toward the smaller hours. Earlier

and drives before him the muffling

protest with direful rumbling against
the fierceness of the sun.
Spring, the lily slender minister
of fresh buds and bedded violets. is
here, and behind her is the aurora of
the relentless and incandescent sum
mer."
But before this was spread before
his readers and after it was too late
to recall it the mercury was in the
neighborhood of zero, the ground was
frozen and the hills were white with

Congressman Blair declares that
1.-THE country has been in no such
peril since the rebels fired on Fort
Sumter" Of course the single in
ference to be extracted from this
truly startling assertion is that Blair
alone can save it. Blair was the New
Hampshire Senator who insisted MP
on a law and an appropriation to
turn the waters of the Mississippi
into Hudson Bay and do away with
the expense of maintaining levees
along its banks. He also had ma
tional education measure that emp
tied the House every time he tried
to explain its provisions. And Blair
wants to succeed Chandler. Hence
his anxiety over a second Sumter
along with the torture of trepidation
unless he superintends the applica-
tion of schemes for salvation. The
country is quite tired of Blair, how
ever, and so is New Hampshire, and
there is no possible danger that
Chandler will disappoint the coun-
try by declining re election or that
Blair will get beyond his announce
ment as candidate. Philadelphia
