one OF the many proofs of the
false pretenses of the late Republi-
can Legislature in trying to make
the people believe that it was "the
most business session ever held in
the State and that "large sums of
money were saved to the taxpayers
by economical appropriations" is
the fact that the appropriation of
$1,000 a year for 1895 and 1896 for
The support of lunatics in Jail, fell
so far short of paying the just and
honest claims allowed for that pur-
pose, that there are today at the
Auditors office, after paying out
the amount appropriated for these
years, claims amounting to $4,000,
and not cent appropriated to pay
them. These claims have been sent
in by the several sheriffs, who ex-
pected the money on them, but for
the failure of the last Legislature in
discharging its duty, the sheriffs
will be compelled TO wait till the
next Legislature meets in 1897 and
provide for them 1t is safe to saw
that from now until March l, 1897,
the time when the next legislative
appropriations will probably become
available, there will be allowed and
certified at least $4,000 more to be
paid out of that fund, thus saddling
upon the next legislature a debt of
$4,000, which the last legislature
should have provided for, and its
failure to do so was all for the pur.
pose of trying to gull the people in
to believing that it was "the most
economical session ever held"
This is only very small portion,
comparatively speaking, of the will
full, gross neglect of that legislature
to discharge it's duties.--K ana,osa

The Great Exposition Complete

The great exposition is now com
plete in all its details. Everything
is in place, the displays are perfect,
and ont Of the confusion of the first
weeks a symmetrical show has grown
the most wonderful that has ever
been seen in this country if we ex-
cept the Columbian exposition.
Those who have been delaying
their visits need delay no longer.
The great show is complete in every
department, and, taken in its entire
ty, represents groups in art, manu-
features and agriculture, that will
not be brought together in this coun-
try again for at least generation.
The great feature of the exposition
is that it confers on those who study
its various departments knowledge
that is equal to liberal education.
In the early hours of the exposi
ton many misleading statements
were sent abroad calculated to hurt
the exposition. The outside public
was given to understand, in the first
place, that the transportation com
panies were practicing extortion, and
some of the correspondents of out
side newspapers left it to be inferred
that the hotel and boarding house
keepers were making arrangements
to rob visitors. All these things
were misleading and misrepresented
the facts. We do not say that At.
lanta is free from human sharks hnt
we dosay that it is impossible for
these sharks to ply their vocation
and take in strangers in the face of
the active public sentiment that pre-
walls here, or in despite of the efforts
of the prominent citizens into whose
hands the management of the fair
has been committed.
The truth is that there are in At
lanta to-day fifty hotels and five hun.
dred boarding houses, and it is pos,
slble for a man and his wife to get
lodging in comfortable hotels pleas
antly located for $3.50 a day, and at
boarding houses at a cheaper rate.
This fact is sufficient to show that
the committee whose duty it has
been to provide accommodations for
the crowds that visit the exposition
have been active and vigilant in their
efforts.
The reputation of Atlanta depends
upon the treatment received by visi
tors attending the exposition, and
the fact that Atlanta has always
jealousy guarded her reputation in
this respect is sufficient guarantee

The weather, too, is perfect, and
BIDS fair to continue so. 1t is neither
too warm nor too cold, the temper
allure having reached the happy me-
dunn that is the most delightful and
charming experience of autumn. We
therefore advise people from a dis
tanceto seize the opportunity to visit

Evidences of the beneticent in
fiuences of Democratic laws adjust
ing and reforming tariff taxes null
tiply. The wonderful reports from
the West and South concerning the
promises in those sections, are most
assuring. Here is paragraph from
the NY. World which ought to con
vince the doubling Thonases, all of
whom singularly enough, are corral
led in the Republican party. The
World says, when the Southern
cotton crop and the Western cereals
now coming forward are actually
marketed the country has in pros
pect season of great and substan-
tial prosperity. 1t promises to ex-
tend not only to manufacturing re-
gions where the activity in iron and
the textiles is bringing in money,
but to the agricultural communities
whose trade does so much to increase
the comfort of the residents of all the
great cities" OF course what affects
one section affects another. With
agricultural, iron and other indus
tries going forward win bound I'M
der Democratic conditions, the coal
interests will naturally feel the in

swinging tide of prosperity. That is
certain. Every miner should remem-
Der this and be grateful enough to
support the candidates of that party
which looks so carefully and CON
scientiously to the welfare of the
common people.

Church Burned.

The Mount Herman NJ. +. Church
in Clay district was entirely de.
stroyed by fire on Sunday morning
last. The building was a wood
structure situated on high ground
where no water could be obtained
and during the Sunday School hour
took fire from a defective hue. A
brisk breeze soon put the flames
beyond control even had there been
bountiful supply of water. The
loss is greatly regretted by lovers of
the church.

Refore and After.

The Pennsylvania Republicans
attribute the prosperity of the coun-

it is because it was amended in the
senate. Less than year ago they
said it was free trade tariff. This

Some of our Republican contem-
poraries have been very busily en-
gagged explaining away the result oil
the elections in Indianapolis, Chat
tanooga and other cities. They fail
to cay however that the people were
tired of Republican rule and decided
to have no more. Further the same
papers think these elections were
not straws and do not show wOich

THE PEEMICKY MOVING ON.
An Extension Into West Virgin
ia Contemplated.
Engineers Now in New Haven. The
Probable Route Through Fayette and
to Points Beyond. An Extension Up
the Mon0Bgahela.

Connellsyille Courier.
West Virginia is al present CON-
handing the attention of three
different companies that can posi-
bly, extend their lines into that State.
The advantages to be gained by hav-
ing branches tap its rich industrial
region much of which is yet unde-
veloped. are too we'll known to dwell
upon. Ever since the Baltimore &
Ohio put the Fairmont branch
through, the Pennsylvania & Lake
Erie companies have been consider
ing various routes through West
Virginia whereby they could estab
lish a trunk line from the South to
the Great Lakes and at the same
time have a line that would be sec
ond to none in the State in freight
tolls. Only last week the report was
sent out from Philadelphia that the
Pennsylvania Company intended to
expend 100000 in extending the
p, V. d c. railroad from Browns
vile, Pa, to Lynchburg, Va, making
connection at the latter point With
the Danville & RiehSaond of the
southern system and the Norfolk d
Western. Two hundred and thirty
miles of new road would have to be
constructed, and part of it would
necessarily lie in territory where
there are two separate roads com
peting for the business at present.
Following close on the Pennsylva
MIA company's reported intention OF
extending the p, V. d c., the Pitts
burg Il Lake Erie Railroad Com
pany put corps of engineers in the
! field. The Lake Erie engineers ar
rived here on Tuesday evening. All
efforts to get any information from
them regarding the object of their
survey is useless. Everyone of the
twelve members of the corps is as
mum as an oyster. 1t is a habit that
engineer corps have to make their
work while in the field as myster.
ious as possible. 1t is surmised,
however, with pretty credita5le au-
thority, that the Lake Erie company
do not want to be behind the Penn
sylvania company in getting line
into West Virginia. They have al
ready made several preliminary sur
veys and have the pick of the right
of way south Of Uniontown. The
corps that is located here now is
working from New Haven toward
Uniontown. The route of the old
Youghiogheny Southern, which was
line projected several years ago by
the Ii. c. Frick Coke Company, may
be taken. Another route goes down
Butte run, and in getting to it the
Lake Erie's branch would open up
some valuable coal land. Once into
Uniontown, the Lake Erie would
have smooth sailing to MorganJown
aud the undeveloped coal fields OF
West Virginia. The extension of
their line would be the signal for a
boom in the coal development of the
Southern Fayette county field. The
Fairmont branch barely skirts the
eastern outcrop south of Uniontown,
the main body of virgin coal lying
west of it. The Lake Erie's branch
would run right through this.
