LET DEMOCRATS DO THEIR Duty.

There will be a strong effort in the
senate to defeat the Wilson bill. And a
still stronger effort will be made to IN,
horse the income tax rider
In the senate democrats are in the ma
jortY. If every man will do his duty,
the measure will pass. But if single
weak knee falter In his duty, it may cause
failure.
And just now the democratic party
cannot afford to make any mistakes
The Wilson bill seems to be as near the
Chicago platform as we are likely to get
this year. In regard to the tariff any
action that places it on permanent foot
ing is better than suspense.
Pass the Wilson bill, and do not let its
rider be endorsed. That jockey rides the
democracy to success.
If the democratic party would carry the
south and west, it must go to the great
people who are crying for relief, and
show them something it has done for
their good. The passage of an income
tax would put the masses in the ranks of
the party.
And democracy needs the masses, as
the masses need democracy.

These are cold facts. The decadence
of agriculture Is not q sophomore excla-
nation it is an alarming fact. Auditor
Furman well says:
There is no doubt that agricultural
lands have decreased in value in the last
few years. This decrease, and the In
crease in values and other attractions in
cities and towns account largely for tie
seemingly growing preference for town
life and pursuits over country life and
pursuits on the part of our young men.
There is unquestionably a cause for this
higher and more far reaching than merely
the tastes of individuals; and this cause,
as think this report will show, cannot
be connected in any degree with the leg
islation or the administration of the laws
of this state. Had the same earnest en-.
deavor been made In national legislation
to justly distribute as well as lessen the
burdens of government, no interest of
our common country would be suffering
to-day, and agriculture, instead of being
vocation to be avoided, would go hand
in hand with all other pursuits in attract

Democrats Disagree.

The Democratic Senatorial conveif-
ton which assembled here Tuesday
was we'll attended and quite interest
ing. The row began at the opening
when Judge Lucas was too spry for a
Morgan County delegate and nomina-
ted Mr.. d. c. Westenhaver for chair
man, and secured his election.
After the preliminary business had
been transacted and before nomina-
tons were in order, the Morgan del
egates tried to ascertain where they
were at. They succeeded in learn
ing that they had no business there,
but before retiring gave utterance to
some honely truths. They openly
charged that their rights had been de-
MED them and they were not going to
be domineered over by Jefferson.
Being convinced that justice would
be denied them, they and portion of
the Berkeley delegates withdrew aud
organized another convention at which
they nominated A. r. Unger, of Nor
gan County.
In the meantime the other crowd
nominated Brice w. Catlett, also of
Morgan, and then adjourned.
The contention on the part of the
Morgan people was that they should
have the right to name their candi-
date for the Senate just as Berkeley
and Jefferson had each named their
candidate for district delegate, Being
denied that right they could only as
sert their manhood by withdrawing.

Wouldn't Make a Change.

The School Board, last night. refus-
ed to make certain changes in the text
books, now in use in the public schools
which were recommended by the new
superintendent, Mr.. A. B. Carman.
We were not informed precisely as to
the nature OF the proposed change,
and cannot undertake to decide on the
merits of the present question, but
OH principle frequent changes oftext-
books are to be deprecated, as impos-
ing a useless expense upon parents,
and having tendency to confuse the
minds of the children. World.
Without entering into coutrover-
sy as to the merits of the books in
question, we beg to inform the World
that Prof. J. NJ. Lee, of Huntington,
FIRST presented the matter to the Board
which very properly agreed to consid-
er it. The attempt to criticise Mr..
Carman, even through mildly, is un-
fair The idea of a change did not
originate with him, but knowing the
excellence of the work, he no doubt
felt that the schools would be benefit
ted by a change There has been
vast improvement i'll school books of
late years, the tendency being to sim
plify the work of the pupils. The
Biographies now in use are practically
the same as those used forty years ago
and should be changed

Der of the Forum says "The gener-
al tendency on the part of our people
to oppose the introduction Of all
methods of instruction that do not
SAVIOR Of the old-fashioned mechanical
routine. is, in my opinion, one Of the
greatest barriers to educational pro-
gress i'll our country to-day"
In other words, Bourbonisni, whether
in the school room or on the forum, is
Bourbonism, always opposed to pro-
gress, always travelling backward or
living in the past, and is never SO
happy as when it can check advance
ment. 1t is the same spirit which
imprisoned Calico, burned Cervetus,
and for many years baffled Columbus.
If we expect our schools to attain
the high position which they should
occupy, we must adopt modern meth
DDS and books. There is no reason
why the Martinsburg schools should
not lead the van We row have
superintendent fresh from one of the
best, if not the best school in the
country, abundantly qualified to in
struct the youth of our thriving and
progressive city, and it is the bounden
duty of every citizen to assist him by
every means in his power. We feel
sure that our neighbor will heartily
second every effort of the Board and
teachers to attain the object in view.
Let every one who knows the value
Of education determine that the time
has come when Martinsburg schools
must and shall come to the very front
rank and the work will be done.

They all died from typhoid fever.
Kind hands ministered to their
wants and the best doctors obtainable
were consulted, but it seemed that no
help sufficient to restore them to health
was available. The other two chill
dren are sick with the same disease
but it is to be hoped they will recover,
as it is certain their parents are
having a serious time of it.
OF course God in His allwise provi-
dence knows best and will act accord
ingly. All things work together for
good to them that love God.
Though we can see no good in this
yet, our thoughts are not His thoughts.
These children were but buds in this
life, but God wanted them for his jew
els and they will blossom in his king
dom for all eternity. May these
heavy strokes be the means of bring
ing the father and mother nearer Him
who has said Twill be with thee in
the sixth trial and in the seventh will
never forsake thee" and through the
hours of grief and sorrow may they
perceive silver lining to the dark
cloud and appreciate the TACT that these
dear children are only taken away for
while, and that they shall all meet
together safe at home, in the sweet

Three sweet flowers have dropped and
faded,
Three sweet children's voices fed;
Three fair brows the grave has shaded,
Three dear objects now are dead.
But we feel relief in sadness,
For our dears are happy now;
They have knelt in soulfelt gladness,
Where the blessed angels bow
They are now where harps are ringing
Through the heavenly courts above,
And their silvery voices singing,
With glad spirits, hymns of love.
They have gone to heaven before us,
But they turn and wave their hands,
Pointing to the glories DER us,
In those happy, happy lands.
Oh, dear children, you are happy,
With your Savior up above,
We will meet you in the future;
And enjoy Sayior's love.

"IIe referred to this as being his second
visit to Martinsburg. His first visit, he
said, was in 1862, when he was with the
peerless St0newall jackson. The refer
ence to Jackson brought out the old yell
that was heard so often in this region in
the stormy days of the civil conflict
and that almost lifted the roof. Today,
continued Governor Oates, find here a
people no less enthusiastic than those
found on my first visit"
