VOLUME XVIII.
The Right Man in the Right Place.

Mr.. Waitman Barrie, editor of the
State Journal, in recent issue of that
paper gave the following paragraphs
referring to DIR. Reynolds and the
University, which will be widely en-
dorsed:
Ever since the removal of DR.. Tur-
ner from the presidency Of the West
Virginia University the State papers
have been discussing the merits of
various gentlemen who have been
named as qualified or willing to sue
coed him in that high office. This
gentleman and that gentleman have
been suggested, some Of them well
equipped for the responsible position
and Others Of them not at all suited
for the discharge Of its duties.
Meanwhile the University is having
the most harmonious and successful
year in its history. The number
of students is larger than during any
former year, the quality of the work
done is superior, the field Of investi-
CATION has been widened, and the var
ious schools of the University have
been harmonized.
1t may be said that for the first
time in the history of the University
the entire State is in sympathy with
its management and its efforts. And
all this has been accomplished in a
few months. Evidently there is a
master hand at the helm, though he
be not honored with the title of pres
ident. The remarkable success of the
school this year under the most try
ing difficulties and in the midst Of the
most adverse circumstances ought to
be proof enough to every observer that
the institution is being directed in
vigorous, intelligent and business like
manner.
Who is doing it? Everybody knows
who has taken any interest in our
chief educational institution. DR.. P.
B. Reynolds, the vice president and
acting president, is the genius at the
helm. He has thrown his wonderful
energy and great ability into the
work. He has gone about over the
State telling the people of the adyan-
tages of the University-a thing that
was never done before since the days
of John Riley Thompson, that mar
velous little giant who was taken
away from West Virginia by the at
fractions Of New York and the East.
DR.. Reynolds believes that an institu-
tion of learning should be advertised
as well as clothing store or brew
cry. He believes that the people will
not patronize an institution unless
they are made acquainted with its
merits. And believing this, he has
not only gone about over the State
himself but has sent out other MEM
bers OF the faculty Moreover, he is
profound scholar and a man Of the
highest character and most amiable
disposition. A good many people who
know him well consider him the most
original thinker in West Virginia.
His personal merits are unquestioned
and his fitness for the Office of presi-
dent Of the University has been prov
ed.
The present writer believes that
in advocating the election of DR.. Rey-
nolds to the presidency he speaks for
the alumni of that institution, as well
as for all Others who know DR.. Rey-
nolds well and have the highest inter-
ests of the University at heart.

President CIeveland's Message.

President Cleveland's message to
Congress in regard to Hawaiian affairs,
in response to inquiries for informa-
ton, is a careful, exhaustive and close
ly reasoned statement of the facts of
the overthrow of the Queens govern
ment last January and of the moral
obligations resting upon the United
States in respect thereto arising out of
the part taken by our minister. The
President shows that the so-called rev.
olution was Minister Stevens's revolt
ution. He was excogitating it months
before it happened, and its success was
absolutely the result of his landing
troops to support the handful of con-
spirators. When the Queen surren-
dered it was to the superior force Of
the United States, she having at the
time troops amply sufficient to beat
the squad of revolutionists. There
was an understanding, in which the
provisional government concurred,
that the Queens case should be final
" decided at washington. Rnt two
DAYS afterward. without regard for
this understanding. enyoys were sent.
by the provisional governments to
Washington to annex the country to
the United States and sell the Oneen
out.
Under the circumstances II is shown
that the United States cannot honor
ably or Justly profit, nv the acts Of its
minister. 1t cannot enter upon mol
icy of setting up REVOLUTIONARY govern
ments to bargain with. nor can it dis
regard it's moral obligation to undo. if
possible. the gross wronp--an act of
war-inficted without Authorization
upon a friendly power by its represen-
tative. Most of the matters present.
ed in the message have all been dis
cussed by the Sun from time tcAtime.

Political Bellyschers.
Uniontown GeniuI

The people who are most annoying
in campaign are the "Bellyachers. "
There are some of these in all parties
and they are great nuisance. Be-
cause everything doesn't go as they
would have it, they conclude there
is something wrong and they stand
around and whine. They announce
that they are for certain candidate,
but mysteriously give it out that
they do not believe he can be elected.
1t would be a great deal better for
said candidate if the Bellyache brig
AIDE would announce that it is
against him. People develop into
Bellyachers often because they
haven't anything else to do. The
primary election often breeds Belly
achers. A man who is defeated for
a nomination at once concludes that
the country is ruined, and immedi'
ately he becomes Bellyacher. If
people must have the political belly
ache, for heavens sake let them keep
it to themselves, and not annoy the
whole country with it, Then their
neighbors will have more tc be thank
full for on days like this.

The Future For Wool

The most sensible article we have
seen on the business Of wool grow
ing is from the pen Of an intelligent
wool grower in Wyoming, published
in the World. After showing that
the condition of the business of wool
growing was no more depressed than
any other business; that we can grow
wool in America as cheaply as it
can be grown anywhere; that the
price of wool under the Mckinley
tariff was lower than ever before,
and this too when the duty on for
eign wool was equal to more than
half what the domestic article sells
for, he sums up his letter with tho
following;
In summing up the whole business
| have come to the conclusion that
we have nothing to hope for from
protection, as the duty ON foreign
wool is more than the price of Amer
lean wool.
We have nothing to fear from the
foreign wool grower.
The cause of the depression in the
wool business is that the manufac-
turers and commission men have Ia
ken advantage Of the tariff agitation
and general business depression to
put down prices so that they can get
wool for their own price.
The remedy would suggest is;
l. Remove the cause of agitation
by putting wool on the free list.
2. Put prohibitive duty on shod
dy goods.
3. Put prohibitive internal tax
on domestic shoddy and shoddy
goods.
With shoddy out of the way we
have no need to fear for the future
of the wool business.

Teacher-Now, dear children, as
you have been good to-day, I'll give
you conundrum to answer 1t is
this: "When we are young we want
to have it and when we have got it we
no longer have any use for it,"
TOMMY know what it is.
What is it, Tommy?
Tommy-It is a wife.
Teacher-Who told you that was
the answer?
TOMMY heard my father say so.
Teacher (thoughtfully)-That an
swer is not so far out of the way, after
all, but the answer meant was ma
turity. When we are young we want
to be older and when we have attain
ed age we no longer want it but, as
your father remarked, Tommy, it is
the same with wife. The class is
dismissed.
