THAT LONDON BANQUET.

Last week the London Chamber Of
Commerce gave dinner to Mr.. Wilson,
in recognition of his distinguished SER
vices to the cause of commercial free
dom. AS was to be expected, the Re-
publican press has been filled with
anger and dismay, and cries of "trea-
son" have been heard. Of course this
is mere Campaign rot" and has no
effect. But there are many well-mean-
ing Democrats who regard the whole
episode as ill-timed and rather unfor-
tunate. This view, we believe, is
based on a very general and very mis-
taken conception Of the nature and
effects of foreign commerce, which we
would labor long to remove if possible.
So far as concerns trade with South
America and Asia, for example, Eng
land is our enemy, or rather our COM
petitor. These countries furnish
market for a certain quantity of GER
tain commodities produced both by
England and by us If England sup
plies a greater proportion of the COM
modities required, it is at our expense
for to that extent our exports will fall
off; and so, ON the other hand, we
can only increase our exports at Eng
lands expense. Asregards this branch
of trade, the English have no occasion
to congratulate themselves upon tariff
reform; for it will inevitably put us
in better plight to compete with her
for this trade.
When we consider the trade between
this country and England, the latter
no doubt has reason to anticipate
large increase in it under a lower tar
if. But is she to be benefited at our
expense? Are we to be injured by an
increased importation of English goods,
as the Republicans would have us be-
lieve? The idea is absurd. England
cannot send one dollars worth of goods
here unless we want them and order
them sent. International trade is not
carried on by money but by barter;
and every cargo of foreign goods I'M
ported is paid for by the export OF
like quantity of the products of our
soil, our mines or our factories, An
increase in our imports from England
means an increase of exports; a wider
market and a better demand for our
grain, meat and cotton. The farmer
and planter will not only find a frmer
demand for his products, but his sup
plies can be drawn from more adj
vantageous market.
The cardinal fact must be remem-
bered that England cannot sell us
more goods without buying more from
us. Mutual trade between two nations
must be mutually advantageous; each
buys what it can get cheapest, whether
at home or abroad and the result is
larger supply Of comforts and neces-
saries to the inhabitants of each than
they could secure without such mutual
trade.
1t was in recognition of the exter-
sion of this mutual beneft-so largely
owing to his efforts-that the dinner
was given to Mr.. Wilson in London.
His speech upon the occasion put the
matter IN its true light; and was
wise, manly and patriotic utterance,
worthy of himself and Of the great
nation whose distinguished servant he
is.

WEST VIRGINIA ITEMS.

The Democrats of the fourth con-
gressional district have nominated
Judge Harvey for Congress, in place
of Hon. James Capehart, who declined
the nomination.
Near st. Adams, Saturday night,
Charles B. Montague shot through the
heart and instantly killed William
McConihay, on a shanty-boat. They
quarreled over a woman and five
shots passed.
At Montgomery last Friday Walter
Dent fired at a duck and missed it.
The bullet hit rock, glanced off and
struck man named Goodwin, walking
on the bank, in the stomach, killing
him almost instantly.
At Grafton Saturday the Taylor
county Democratic convention nomi-
mated DR.. w. S. Border for the Legis-
lature, H. B. Winters for county COM
missioner and r. D. Henderson for

and Henry B. Morgan; superintend-
ent of schools, ]. L. Paush; county
surveyor, Wesley Prickett.
The big gas we'll on Indiana creek,
in Tyler county, has broken loose again
and the roar Of the escaping gas can be
heard dozen miles away, while in the
neighborhood of the well the noise is
simply deafening. The well belongs
to the Victor Oil Company, and was
drilled into the sand September 9th.
1t at once developed into big gasser,
and the pressure was sufficient to throw
the tools, weighing 1000 pounds, out
of the derrick, wrecking that structure.
In about a week it subsidized, but now
has broken out with tenfold power, and
experienced oil men pronounce it the
biggest gas well ever struck in the
world. Enough gas is being wasted
daily to light and heat city Of lOO,-
900 population.

II is of vital Importance that 1t should be
understood by persons whose Kidneys are
inactive, that this condition OF things Is H.
nally inductive OF a state OF the organs where
life hangs In the balance. Brights disease,
diabetes, albuminuria are all diseases OF q
very obstinate character in their mature
stage, and all have a fatal tendency. They
often battle the most practiced MEDICAL skill,
and the most approved remedies of materia
medica But opposed at the outset-that IS
TO say, when the kidneys begin TO discharge
their functions inactively-with Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, the dangerous tendency Is
checked. Very useful, also, is lis household
medicine for those ailments of common &C.
currence-constipation, biliousness, dyspep-
STA and nervousness. 1t is a safeguard against
malaria aud ayerts chronic rheumatism.

Sept. 20, 1894.
To the Democrats of the 18th Sena-
torial district, w. Va.-Whilst a large
majority of the Democracy of Morgan
county and many Democrats Of Berke-
lev and Jefferson feel that the rights
of Morgan have been trampled upon
in the senatorial convention, and the
Morgan delegation feeling that they
were being ignored in said convention
and believing they had the right by
custom and agreement to name the
candidate, which right being refused
them did retire to another hall to or
ganize convention, and nominate me
as the Democratic candidate for State
Senate for the 18th senatorial district,
and whilst l feel that the Morgan
delegation has just cause to feel indig-
nant at the treatment received in con-
vention, yet as a true and lifelong
Democrat, one who believes in and
loves the principles Of the Democratic
party too much to anyway jeopardlze
Democratic success, | must therefore
under the circumstances ask my friends
to excuse me for not accepting the NOM
ination, as l feel it my duty as Dem
ocrat and in the interest Of harmony
and Democratic success to decline to

WITHIN the last two years the New
York Democrats have taught Senator
Hill and his machine two very severe
lessons. The first was their support
of Mr.. Cleveland and their triumph
ant carrying Of the State for him, in
the face of the machine mems opposi-
ton and prophecies of dire disaster.
The second was the overwhelming de-
feat of Maynard, whom Senator Hill
forced upon them as the candidate for
a judgeship, in arrogant disregard of
the sentiment Of decent people all over
the State. Senator Hills course since
then shows that he has taken these
lessons to heart, and recognizes that
the people are stronger than any ma
chine and that their Will must be
obeyed. His nomination for governor
was evidently due to spontaneous
recognition that he is the strongest
available candidate; and it has the
endorsement of the Cleveland men.
1t ought to bring about union of the
warning factions in New York, which
will be invincible. Those Democrats
who talk Of putting third ticket in
the feld-knowing that Morton's cleo
ton would be the inevitable result
should remember that it is not neces-
sary to destroy machine in order to
reform it. And they should recognize
that to substitute the domination of
the Republican for that of the Demo-
cratic machine would certainly be to
"swap the devil for witch"

conspiracy by the Davis-Elkins crowd

that the tools of German and Davis,
some of whom hold high positions in

there are many true Democrats in that

threats will make them desert their
