his belief that it should go uninstructed
and uncommitted. But the Intelligencer
pushes aside Mr.. Dayton and all those
in the party who think as he does
and declares that this is not possible
if the delegates are to represent the
constituencies back OF them" The In
telHgencer. of course. is understood to
know more about the opinions of those
constituencies than the men who. like
Congressman Dayton, personally rep
resent them. for our neighbor goes on
to say. it its comments on Mr.. Dayton's
utterance that there is not a we'll in
formed person in the State who does not
know that this is the feeling of West
Virginia Republicans"
Precisely as it can see no other can
didate for the Governorship in the Re-
publican party but George Wesley At
kinson. and snubs all others. so it can
see none other but Mckinley for Pres
ident. and will not even tolerate a sug-
gestion that the West Virginia dele
CATION TO St Louis should go uncom-
mitted. Our neighbor is evidently
bound to be on the drivers seat of the
Mckinley band wagon.

A SHORT v1sIoNED ORGAN.

The esteemed Inteligencer seems to
be badly afflicted with political myopia.
The focus Of its vision is apparently
unable to get beyond the confines Of
the editorial cockloft on Fourteenth ST.
There is no figure on the political no
rizon which this would-be spokesman
for the whole Republican party Of West
Virginia can see but that of Mr. Nc
Kinley. Of Ohio. That contour. with It's
Napoleonlc pose. shuts every other out
Of the range Of our esteemed neighbor's
vision.
Yet there are others. The political
woods may be uuthfully said TO be full
Of them. in fact and there are Repub-
licans in West Virginia who are not so
dead in love with the man. who. as
chairman Of the Ways and Means Com
mittee OF the 51st Congress. allowed
the tariff barons 10 write the schedules
OF the Mckinley bin, as the esteemed
InteIHgencer is.
OF course. our neighbor is dead sure
Of NcKinley's nomination and election,
which events would place The Intelli-
gencer in a very solid position with re-
gard to Washington and the official
plum pudding in 1897. but. as we have
said. there are Republicans in the State
who do not think il advisable to commit
the West Virginia delegation 10 ST.
Louis to Mckinley. Among the promin-
emit Republicans who have expressed
themselves on this point is Congress
man Dayton. who represents the Second
district. Mr.. Dayton does not believe
the West Virginia delegation ought 10

RICF,S 1892. 7"

In Rice's 1892" the curtain rises on
the Spanish court, whose treasury has
been depleted through the reckless eX-
travagance of the king and the treas
urer's love for glittering diamonds.
Creditors are pressing their demands
and Christopher Columbus is pleading
for a fleet with which TO discover the
New World The male and female
choruses are large and thoroughly
trained, and the ballets, marches, tab
leaux. songs and dances are enacted
by host of pretty, young and shapely
maidens. whose viyacity and sweetness
are most exhilarating. An orchestra OF
soloists discourses the pretty, catchy
musical gems with which the perform
ance abounds. The famous Kilanyi
Living Pictures will be seen here for
the first time as posed and presented
by their conceptor Herr Kilanyi. 1t
Will be at the Opera House this even

FIELDS MINSTRELS.
Stage mechanism has advanced more
rapidly in the past several years than
it did in the 30 years previous. The
y
tious production form a large part of
the expense of organizing a company.
All the larger combinations carry from
one TO two cars of special scenery.
Minstrel shows have been the exception
to this rule, as, with the exception of
the hangings and the draperies of the
first part, they have carried but little
special scenery. AL. G. Field has con-
Guided it is time for the minstrel shows
to get in line with the better stage
representations of the day. He will
therefore carry special scenery and
stage effects, mounting each act on the
programme with appropriate scenery
and effects. 1t will be at the Opera
House next Monday night.
REILLY AND WOODS BIG SHOW.

OF it the Pictsburg Chronicle Telegraph
says Pat Reilly and his merry COM
pany entertained a big audience at the
Academy last night, presenting some
up-tO-date specialties. Ida Howell. one
of the new members Of the company, al
though billed as an importation from
the music halls of London and the con-
tinent, sings a plantation song with all
the fervOr Of an American girl. The
Lane sisters, three in number, give a
Bare Foot Trilby' dance that is in
teresting, to say the least. Billy Ed
ridge is certainly colored genius in
the vaudeville line, and his acrobatic
dance made such hit that he was
recalled until he was tired. The orig
inal Three Rubes, Dixon, Bowers and
Dixon, were also vociferously applaud
ed. Pat Reilly, of course, has some new
and catchy Irish songs"

AFLOUR COMBINE.

II will be interesting news to bread
winners and bread eaters that the
spring wheat millers of the United
States. with few exceptions. have form
ed a combination to regulate prices and
production. Report says that the new
Combine" has been made cohesive by
a money deposit into the common treas
ury. upon which heavy penalties will
be assessed against the members who
may be tempted 10 break the agree
ment
This is a Trust under another name.
Despite the fact that it includes most
of the large mills of the country, and
practically all in the Minneapolis, Du-
luth and Superior districts. it is hedged
about by elements which would seem
to assure its eventual disintegration.
There are thousands of small mills
throughout the country, as we'll as
few big concerns, that have gone into
the combination which may be relied
upon TO break the seals of the new
agreement. Moreover. it has not yet
appeared that the big -four jobbing in
terests of the country are to be placat-
ed by possible participation in the
profits of the arrangement. The Sugar
Trust was shrewder in disarming op-
position by helping to secure their dis
ributers a profit under the famous
factor agreement" The flour manu-
facturers. however, are comparatively
new hands in the Trust business, and
after few failures they may learn
something from the older organizations
in restraint Of competition. The Mil
lers' Combine viii bear watching by
the bread-winners and bread-eaters Of
the land.
