DIsPUTgD BOUNDARY LINE.

The Interests OF West Virginia are
being carefully guarded By the State
officials and attorneys who have 10 hand
the matter Of the disputed boundary
line between this State aud Maryland.
Involving, a. it does, the ownership Of
some OF the richest and most valuable
territory in the State, the case is one OF
the greatest interest, and While there
ca % but ITT-Trl5 doubt as 70 the Courts
decision in the case, there is still suf-
fcient element OF uncertainty TO re-
Quire most careful action by the repre-
sentatiyes Of our State in conducting
the case. The suit against
West Virginia was brought some
time ago in the Supreme
Court Of the United States by the
State Of Maryland to recover the pos
session Of certain territory alleged 10
belong to Maryland but which had al
WAYS been a part Of Virginia or OF West
Virginia since the formation Of those
States. Messrs. FLOURNOY Il PRICE
were appointed by Governor FLEMING
TO assist the Attorney General in caring
Nor the interests Of West Virginia and
case has never been neglected.
Ia now with the case sleeping peace
upon the Supreme Court docket,
ring It's turn along with hundreds Of
pr cases, the evidence is being col
ted which will be used to make the
Hroper defense. Mr. FLoURNOY has
recently been in Preston county looking
up some matters concerning the dispute,
and has employed a surveyor 10 run the
line from Fairfax Stone to Pennsylya-
yania. He will begin this week to look
up old land titles and make the survey
for distance Of about thirty-six miles.
1t is to be hoped that the Court will
reach this case before many years have
elapsed, and will put an end forever 20
this troubIous question about the own
ershiP Of the disputed territory.

The country has been remarkably for
tunate this summer in escaping
any serious epidemic and but
a few weeks now remain until
the rains must come aud the purifying
frosts. There is still time. though, for
much to happen. The doctors say they
have discovered a case Of genuine
Aslatic cholera at Cumberland, Nd.
Every precautlOn has been taken to
prevent the spread Of the disease, and
there will probably not be another case
OF it, But what q harvest the disease
would reap should it once find ioothold
in this vicinity. The heat, the drouth,
the staguant pools would all assist in
spreading the disease and max
ing its effects moro terrible.
There is little danger that
there will be such a thing as an out
break Of this scourge, but the exercise
OF proper precautlon will not be amiss.
A little care might we'll be exercised by
all

Although the summer is about over,

usual summer diseases has not dimin-

has greatly increased the danger Of dis
ease aud has made more necessary all
measures Of precaution. The water in
all the streams is low and often stag
naut and the very waters which are
usually health-productiye have DOW be-
come the breeders of disease. Foul.
