SOCIAL SCIENCE CLUB.
Ethics of Political Campaigning Dis
 cIlsSed

Ethics of Political Campaigning Dis-
 cussed.
 At the meeting of the Social Science club held in the room of the Young Mems Institute last evening Judge Lynde Harrison read a paper on ",The Ethics Of Political Campaigning" In his paper, among other things he dis cussed the use of money for campaign purposes in the paying of legitimate expenses of the election and also for the illegitimate purposes of buying voters.
 The question was then thrown open for discussion to the meeting, and re- marks were made by Lawyer Russell Rev pr. Twitchell, MT. Mansfield and others. MT Russell thought that speakers and sapers would have to be more temperate in their discussion of the great issues of the day before they would have the desired educational in- fiuenee. Judge Harrison was subjected to rather severe ross-questioning on the suhaet Of trusts, and expressed the opinion that the Standard Oil com- pany had been help to oil consumers by the reduction of prices. When asked as to Prof. McCook's S statement that II per cent. of the voters of Connecticut were corruptible, MT. Harrison said he had talked with Prof. McCook himself and from him he learned that his es- inmates were based on the condition in eew thousand and not of the whole state. He thought it very likely that in some towns, owing to local condi- tions, Prof. McCook's statement was correct, but did not think that it was true in all the towns or throughout the states, as whole.
 When asked as to the ballot law of the state, he said he believed it would be better If the use of the official en- velope were dispensed with. He also said that the English corrupt practice act had done away with the evil against which it was aimed in England, and that ultimately this country would also be free from the evil.

THE WEST LIBERTY SCHOOL.

Rumors have been cu-Snt at West
Liberty and in this cityMfor several
days past that the Regents of the Nor
nal Schools had decided not to rebuild
the school building at West Liberty.
This report has no foundation in fact.
The Regents have not recently met,
and the insurance on the burned build
ing has not yet been settled Nothing
will be done until the losses are ad-
justed and the money paid, and there
are no visible signs that the building
destroyed will not be replaced.
Should it turn out, however, for any
reason, that the West Liberty school
building will not be rebuilt, it is I'M
derstood that the residents of this
county, mainly living along the pike,
stand ready to donate a free site and
to contribute some money besides, to
influence a new location of the Normal
School in this county. This removal
would require the approval of the Leg
islature, however.

league to be conducted at that popular
resort during the summer months.

The Wheeling Gun Club was organ
lied last week and starts off with
good membership, with bright prospects
for reaching half a hundred at the next
meeting. There has always been live
ly interest in this sport in Wheeling,
but it was more apparent some years
ago when match shoots were conducted
with a number of crack teams. Chas.
e. Dwight, Otto Jaeger and Richard
Stewart were among the best marks
men in this section. The new club has
secured grounds on the Island, in an
excellent location, and it is likely that
a number of competitive contests will
be arranged during the summer.

If the weather is fair to-day a large
number of silent steeds" Will be out
for the first time this year. THESE mild
days have stirred up interest in cycling
which promises to be more than over
popular in Wheeling this summer. Dur
ing the week the organization Of two
clubs was perfected-the Wheeling
Wheel Club and Carroll Club Cyclers.
The first named has a membership Of
half a hundred, and the latter thirty
The object of these organizations is to
cultivate a better social feeling among
riders and to accomplish certain OBJ
jects which can be better secured
through a union of devotees Of the
wheel. There has been very little talk
of a league meet in this city, but Chief
Consul Geiger reports another increase
in the West Virginia membership in the
l. A. w, which is a very encouraging
sign.
Bowling is on its last legs, so far as
the winter tournaments are concerned.
The Musee race will wind up in short
time, and it is not likely that there will
be any important changes in the rela-
tive positions Of the teams. The
Brownies hold urKA sputed possession of
first place and Annot be supDlanted
by any other club The Daisies and
Nameless have made very good show
ing througout the season, and will fin

Press Club is the most liekly candidate
for tail end honors. Col. Statler has
abandoned the idea of organizing a
juvenile league. and bowling matters
will be dull unless a summer tourna-
ment is organized. Mr.. W. c. Handlan,

Washington, d. c.. April 4-Presi-

decided that Saginaw belongs TO the In
terstate league. thus disposing of the
claim made by the Michiel league.
The money to pay for protection TO the
Interstate was handed over to President
Young to-day. Mr.. Young sent a tele-
gram to President Numley, Of the Mich
igan league, notifying him that under
existing circumstances Saginaw could
not be taken from the Interstate, and
that the owners of the Saginaw fran,
chise have a right to select their league.
The same ruling applies to Jackson.
This efIectually disposes of the only
obstacle that remained between the In
