Governor Culberson, OF Texas, deslr.
Ing to help the cause OF free silver, has
drawn out OF bismarck his Views on tho
question. The retired German states
mat regards this us the time FOR an In
tcrnatlonnl bimetnllio agreement and
says that III the people OF the United
States should find 1t compatible with
their interests to take Independent ac-
tIno" In his Judgment such action would
have Influence upon the consumation
OF an International agreement"
Probably. Unless we are mistaken
the people OF tho United States do not
think such notion would be compatible
with their. Interests. and when they go
into free coinage 1t will be when the
great trading nations or the world Join
with them.
But why does any free silver man seek
foreign advice" Haven't they all been
telling US that this country Is wise
enough TO do its own thinking and
strong enough TO do Its avn acting with
out regard to the thought or the action
OF any other country Gov. Culbcrson
should be more careful. lie may get
himself dislIkcd and read out OF the free
silver party.

1t tIckles our West Virginia pride to
know that this state sent to Canton on
Friday last the organization which at
tracted most attention OF all the organi-
cations which crowded that fine little
city on that cventful day. Also It Is
pleasing to know that IL Elkins Cadets
attracted the special attention and COM
mendatIon OF the next President OF the
United States.
The young mcn Of this organization
have shown exceptional good taste In
their uniform. They march well, rs
they should. for many Of them hnvc had
the military training Of our L!naly In
stitutc, and all have been remarkably
well drilled. seeing that they have been
organized 90 short IL time.
But better than all this even Is tho
fact that they know how to bear them
selves. Wherever the Elklns Cadets 20
West Virginia may feel assured TINT
they will reflect nothing but credit on
their state.

son Is home from Europe. lie Is one Of
the sound money Democrats who should
throw themselves Into this campaign.
Particularly should MIR. Wilson be
heard in West Virginia. He Is on the
right side Of the money question. I'M
derstands 1t and knows how TO present
1t. and he will be listened to with respect
full attention wherever he may go.
Early In the campaign, really before
the campaign had fairly opened, Mr..
Wilson wrote n letter on the financial
question which has had Il very wide
reading In West Virginia. lie gave con-
elusive reasons why free silver would be
for the country.
II he will take the stump and talk on
the same line he a serve his state and
his country by helping to deprive the
free silver candidates of the vote OF
West Virginia by such a majority as
will place West Virginia where she
ought to be-among the most enlighten-
ed and progressive commemorative.
The Bryan people will not welcome
Mr.. Wilson on the stump. but all other
West VIrginians will.

by the police. Seventeen women, all
said to be members of south side So
ciety, and attired in silk clothing and
wearing diamonds, were arrested, to-
gether with colored boy and an in

When the police broke into the pool
room in the building at 351 Thirty
Third street, the occupants were bus

cards at Oakley, Windsor, ST. Louis
and the Ideal park races, and in plac-

police the room became scene of
pandemonium. Some of TIE women
tainted. Others screamed and tied
handkerchiefs over their faces In five
minutes the police had collected cards,
dropped by the occupants, containing
the entries at four race tracks, to-

on the horses The ticker was then
torn from the desk and a telephone

Commander Booth-Tucker will be
present and work will also be begun

after it is once fairly started, shall be
entirely self-supporting. Conmodious
quarters have been secured in the
building which has been occupied by

Her Brother Says ssShe Died She Had
Lived, without Recompense.''
In May Henriette accompanied M
Renan on that celebrated expedition
to Palestine, The fruits of which were
given to the world in the 'sVie de
Jesus After spending some months
in Galilee and the Lebanon, they found
themselves in Beyrout in September.
Their work was nearly finished, ano
they were eagerly looking forward tc
their return home, when Mdlle- Renan
was seized with fever. The village of
Amschitm. near Byblos, a favorite
sojourn of hers, seemed prefera BILE to
Beyrout a resting place for the
short remaining time, but scarcely
had they removed there when her
brother. in his turn, was smitten.
There was no one in the village com
petent to treat the disease, and when
the doctor from Beyrout arrived it
was too late to save Henriette.
She died, as she had lived for SO long,
alone During her long agony her
brother was lying in a state of COM
plete Inconsistencies, from which he
was aroused by the administra ton of
the most powerful remedy known to
science only an hour after she had
passed away.
''She died." said NJ Renan, "as she had
lived, without recompense. The hour
when men reap what they have sown,
when they look back from their repose
on the tolls and sorrows of the way,
never struck her on earth. Nav her
memory remain with us as a precious
argument for those eternal truths
which every virtuous life con tributes
to demonstrate. For myself, I have
never doubted of the reality of the
moral order, but I see clearly now
that the whole logic of the system of
the universe would be overthrown if
such lives were but a mockery and an
illusion. "-Temple Bar.
