The Kapawha Gazette publishes a
tabulated statement by counties of
the number of male persons over 81
years Of age who were returned de-
linquent for the non-payment Of
taxes in 1894. The total number of
voters in the State for that year was
1857, and of this number 3S,9O3
were returned by the sheriffs as de-
linquent. BY this it will be seen
that over one-ifth Of the voters Of
the State contribute nothing in the
way Of taxes. Greenhrier presents
u splendid exhibit in comparison
with other counties. She has 1902
voters, of whom 4S3 were returned
delinquent, or - per cent. ka-
nawha has 1922 voters, of whom
4, lS0 were returned delinquent, or
Al per cent. The least number Of
delinquents was returned by Hardy
county-53 out Of | ,695 voters, or ,
per cent. MonOngalia returned l26
out of 1866 voters. Mcdowell re-
turned very nearly half of hers as
delinquent, the figures being 1888
out of 1915 voters. Monroe has l43
delinQuents out Of 1853 voters

THE Kentucky Legislature Is still
deadlocked, and, though six ballots
have been taken, no election has
been possible. 1t now appears that
there will be no election this session.
The leader of the forces of Hon. w.

Republican can win, and the friends
of Senator j. &. Blackburn swear
that he is the only Democrat whose
name will be considered. The two
Populists in the General Assembly

pany's earnings for the month of
December, 1895, were 500, 900 more
than for the month Of December,
1894, according to one of the promi-
nent officials of the company. The
Chesapeake and Ohio recently had
100000 bushels of wheat stored in
the grain elevator at Newport News
and 10000 bushels more on the
tracks there. During the last month
twenty-five steamers loaded and
sailed for foreign ports, and 100000
bushels Of wheat were hauled from
Canada via Chicago to Newport

The Chesapeake and Ohio, tits stated,

cago to the seaboard with one engine
than any other line leaving the West

WILSON and n revenue TARIFF
will be the war cry of the national

the President prevail. So says the

further informed that it was an open
secret during the meeting of the
Democratic National Committee
that Mr.. Wilson was one of the IA
vorites of the President for the presi-
dental nomination. AT the same

come the paramount issue in our
