This is Not Wise.

Some business men are actually so
stupid or so prejudiced that they will
not advertise in paper which a COM
peditOr of theirs advertises in. This is
all the more reason why they should
advertise in such paper. If your
business rival didn't do anything to
attract customers to his establishment
then you would be on an equal footing
with him and could perhaps better
afford not to advertise. But you must
be fully as alert and pushing, or more
so, if you would not let him get ahead
of you. And the advertising columns
of the newspaper can be of great benefit
to you no matter who avails themselves
of the same medium.

A correspondent writing from
Buffalo Springs to the Richmond Times,
gives an account of recent theatrical
performance there when the pleasing
little farce entitled - Courtship Under
Ditiiculties,'' was rendered by visiting
amateur latent. We find among others
the following reference to one of our
young townsmen. The correspondent
says: "Mr. H. 2. Strause, of Hen
derson, n. c., the handsome, persistent,
and impetuous lover, was true to life.
His happy and successful portrayal of
this character suggested the probability
of considerable experience in that line
and that he had participated in many
private rehearsals lately.''

g Improper use of the tongue the
scripture lesson was taken from the
third chapter Of James. THE unruly
tongue does great HARM Behold
how great a ma liter little fire kindleth.
Don't say anything at all if you can't
say anything good. Don't pick out
faults, we all have them, you can usu-
ally find some good in every one. l
wouldn't be tale bearer. This stirs
up strife, and "separates very friends"
o, what harm is done by thoughtless
people by starting some tale true or
false about their neighbours character
or acts And for all this they must
give an account at the last great day.
Beware then of how you speak ofother
people, their character, etc. You may
destroy their usefulness and DO great
damage for which you will be held to
strict account. To tell thing whether
false or true, ,cith the design to i'yure
is SANDER. You do not have to tell
lies on people to SANDER them. The
truth may be so told as to iVure. Let
us be cautious how we handle other

hold us responsible.

wildcat Insurance Companies.

W1lu-Cat INSURANCE companies
Pittsburgh is doing q general public
service by turning up wildcat fire in
surance companies as well as tainted
building and loan associations. The
field for this work 10 not confined to
Pittsburgh. II there could be general
overhauling OF kite-fying life insurance
companies along with the rest, there
would be moro extensive clearing Of
the atmosphere.
One of tho fire insurance companies
has been run through the mill OF the
Allegheny county court. 1t is q Nir-
GINA concern, and has in that state an
oiFice-that is TO say man to receive
and forward its mail-thirty-eight miles
from a RAILROAD. The place is summer
resort and the mail is sent to WASH
ington boarding house. This concern
is the West Moreland Company. OF
Colonial Beach, Virginia.
Insurance men say that Virginia and
Wcst Virginia are the states under
which wildcat companies thrive, be-
cause in these states anybody can get
charter for anything. These charters
have become so rank that promoters OF
the wildcat companies are forced to 20
elsewhere for their charters. In this
way the evil is doing something to cure
itself with regard 10 this state, but West
Virginia should not, be satisfied with
that.
1t is time to put up the bars in this
matter OF granting charters to every
body for everything. The state cannot
afford to have her seal used for disre-
putable purposes.

Here We Arc Again.

It was only the other day that the
Register was weeping burketsfui Of
tears over the bad treatment Of Judge
Gof, whom the Republicans Of West
Virginia we're about to pass over in
carving out their fell purpose to make
Mr.. Elkins United States senator. But
as Judge Golf does not feel that way
about it, is not aud will not be a candi-
dat. for the succession 10 Senator Cam
den, it is not possible to make any head
way on that line.
So here goes in another disrection.
Deserving West Virginia Republican
talent was passed over to make General
Goff United States judge, and Mr..
Elkins was at the bottom Of it Hence
the Republicans of West Virginia should
rise up in their might and highly re-
solve that Mr.. Elkins shall not be
United States senator. This, of course,
is solely in the interest of the Repub.
lican party in West Virginia.
The Register may not know that Ii
General Golf had not received the ap-
pointment it would almost certainly
have gone to another state. General Gofi
did not hustle for tho place, but when
the President learned that it would be
agreeable to him that determined the
question. The wisdom Of the appoint
ment has been thoroughly vindicated.
No United States judge stands better
with the bar than Judge COT does.
II the Register knows anything about
the matter it knows that the Republi.
cans OF West Virginia felt that they
shared in the honor conferred on Gen.
eral Con. They had but one regret,
and that was that so long as he might
remain on the bench he could take no
part in politics. In the recent campaign
We saw circuit Judge of West Virginia
stamping district as bis party's nomi.
nee for Congress; but Judge GOT is not
that kind of Judge.
II the esteemed Register will keep up
its noble effort TO make all the prom
inent Republicans of West Virginia
realize that they are grievously wronged
by Mr.. Elkins being in the world, it
may accomplish as much as it did in the
late campaign. when the corruscations
ofi.s genius were the daily terror OF its
party.

RANDOM POLITICAL NOTES.

Many of the Republican papers OF
the statc. since the election, are calling
attention to an evil which has existed
for years in connection with the state
administration OF our educational sys-
tom, but which, owing TO tho partisan
character of tho appointing power,
there seemed TO DO no remedy for. Now
that there is Republican majority in
the state senate, it is possible to compel
tho governor to remedy the matter. II
has been standing repreach 80 West
Virginia that the boards OF regents OF
our state educational institutions-the
university and the normal schools-
have been composed entirely OF Demo-
Gratis, thus constituting partisan boards.
In other states, where the boards oil ro-
gents OF such Institutions arc selected,

cause OF education than with dosiro

Gsntlcmnnly Foot Rail-,

II we are to look any where for "gen-
tlemanly foot ball." surely it must be
to tho great colleges and universities.
There we EXPECT to see the triumph OF
mind over matter. II college team
be disposed to 90 into brutal smuggling
match, it is to be presumed that the
faculty would quickly call halt. But
we are not to suppose that college mon
would descend to the level OF the brawl-
ing tough.
How, then. are We to account for the
mill between Yale and Harvard? Play
ers went down like grass before the
mower. They wero hammered and
kicked. The hospital stretcher had to
be brought into use. The Harvard
coach says that Captain EIinkey's actin
jumping on Wrightingtou when he was
lying on tho ground and not trying to
move, was the most brutal thing ever
saw on foot ball field" The Harvard
coach adds that this player should have
been disqualified. Disqualified He
should have been sent to the lookup
and dosed with all the Law would allow.
The conclusion is forced on all who
take any note OF the game that college
authorities will have to step in TO mod
lily tho play or to forbid the game. Left
10 themselves the men will not play n
"gentlemanly game" Tho sharp rivalry
is more than they can stand, and they

to be preferred. There is infinitely moro

wnEEIING. NovEalRER 30, 1sO4.


A Register writer. who signs himself
Hancock and, to mislead, writes under
date of New Cumberland, has q COM
muuication in which he brings out Mr..
W. P. Hubbard for the United States
senate. Here is his idea:
Mr.. nubbard's friends can force his election II
they do not allow themselves TO be hauled INTO
a caucus by the Eikins urng net Tho Demo
craW no doubt would stand rs body to throw

Republican organization by boiling the
causus. The next step is for Republic.
can minority to join.with the.Democrats
who, mo doubt, would!stand as n body
to throw their vote to the candidate
who could with their vote beat Elkins."
Wouldn't it first be necessary to get
Mr.. Hubbard's consent to this kind Of
politics? and then wouldn't it be neces-
sary to find the boiling Republicans?
Autobiography ITO beat Eikins,"
OF course, but that is the idea OF the
Democratic politicians. The idea Of the
Republicans in the legislature will be
found to be very different. They will
not take counsel OF the Democratic poll
ticians, who have wrecked their own
party in West Virginia.
The concert of action among Repnbli-
cans at Charleston this winter will dis
appoint the stricksters OF the other side
and meet the expectation of the people
who sent them there. They will elect
Mr.. Elklns and they will do sundry
other things that will be well for the
state.
If the Democratic schemers could
break tho Republican caucus some OF
these things could not be done. A
great many Democrats would sleep bet
ter if they could be assured that this is
the way it will be.
