at the same time retained the
two sinecure positions of super
intendent and matron for the
period OF thirty days. we hereby
feel constrained, owing to this
unjust and uncalled for discrimi-
nation, TO enter this protest.
1--WE look upon this action on
your part not only as an un-
just discrimination in favor of
man imported from foreign soil,
but as an unjust reflection upon
native born West Virginians,
some of whose fathers were sol
diers in the late rebellion in be-
half of the Union. We have done
the medical work in the entire
institution to the exclusion of DIR.
Crumbacker, and the clerk has
attended to the financial branch
while the superintendent has
uniformly contented himself
with arising about nine in the
morning, debating a few letters,
signing a few checks and orders,
after they had been filed in by
the clerk, and has but recently
been heard to say that he had
no interest in this State and its
people, and refused abruptly to
contribute a cent to any enter
prise in the State. the money of
whose citizens has been his sup
port for the past four years.
This man, upon whom you
now see fit to pronounce this full
some eulogy or compliment. has
never been in harmony with the
medical staff or the business man
agement of the institution, and
as evidence of this assertion.
1t is a well known fact that when
about to leave the institution on
visit, he has given orders to
his stenographer that when an
swering correspondence with re-
ference to the condition and vel
fare of the patients, she could
get her information from the
supervisors. thus ignoring the
medical staff, who administered
all the medicines. We declare
emphatically and without fear
of contradiction that heis wholly
ignorant of, and unacqualnted
with. the daily treatment of the
inmates. who have been under
the sole care of the assistant
physicians. In conclusion we de-
sire to say that if, in the face OF
these facts. you still see fit to
stand by the position taken, re-
CARELESS of the welfare of the
unfortunate inmates, we through
self-respect and in defense of our
! manhood, after mature and de-
liberate consideration, hereby
most respectfully tender our re-
spective designations to take eff
feet Immediately.

affection of millions of hearts.
To his marvellous gifts of ora
tory, as well as to his personal
characteristics, was this remark
able popularity due. Yet itcan-
not be said that his written
speeches are masterpieces of lit
erary construction or of profound
reasoning. AS was said of Fox,
cold print could never do his
speeches justice. To be fully ap.
preciated, they had to be heard
on the theatre of action, in the
hushed Senate Chamber, or be-
fore the eagerly upturned faces
of assembled multitudes. One
had to listen to the rich cadences
of a voice such as never man be-

sSNZc of the departed
If//j1HFET5 soldiers he says:
There is still quite alarge num-
Der, probably more than 200 un
marked soldiers graves in West
Virginia. This ought not. and need
not be so. 1 appreciate the deli
cacy of this subject. l know how
it comes to the heart of the widow
or orphan, but assuring you
as much of my sympathy for you
in your sorrow. allow me to
speak a few friendly words with
you on this subject. Doubtless
there are reasons why you have
not vet a monument above the
remains of your dead. You may
contemplate getting good and
costly one, and it has not yet
been convenient to do so. or you
NAV perhaps feel yourself unable
to purchase even a cheap stone
and so you have been waiting;
but there are many reasons why
every soldiers grave should be
suitably marked, and let me call
your attention to the fact that
the government furnishes for all
deceased soldiers a headstone
free of charge. Ali you have %
do is to make application to the
Quartermaster General of o. S.
A. at Washington, and set the
stone when it comes; even freight
is paid by the government. This
stone is of white marble, from
two to four inches in thickness.
and from ten to twelve in width,
and three feet long and bears the
Inscription of the name of the
company and Regiment of the
soldier, and is given as a badge
of honor in recognition of the
soldiers service. Get this stone
and set it, and if in the future
you want to erect more costly
one, then this will answer nicely
as a foot stone.
All Grand Army Posts will, in
a short time, be furnished with a
blank form of application for
these markers, and 1 hope all
comrades will interest themselves
in looking up any unmarked
graves in their locality, and pro-
curing headstones.
Still another matter demands
the attention OF every good citi-
zen. 1t appears probable that at
least a few union soldiers lie
buried in "Potters fields
Pauper graves" at one place or
other in the State. This is hu.
initiating indeed. Think of it
West Virginia, the romantic
Mountain State, unique in the
sisterhood of States, born amid
the throes of war. Many of its
valleys and mountain peaks hap.
tiled with the blood of some OF
its patriotic sons, and yet here
sleeps in pauper. and unmarked
graves some of the men who gave
their life that the stars and
stripes might continue to float
over the West Virginia hills"
NowI urge. that comrades, the
Sons of Veterans, ladies of the
w. R. G. and ladies of the 6. A.
R. and all patriotic people Of the
State, lay hold of this work and
during the year 1897 remove
from, and renter the bodies of
any who are in rauper graves,
and SO far as possible secure the
marking of all unmarked graves,
and when all that can be done,
has been accomplished, please
report the results to the under
signed.

the Alaska salmon will disappear if eff
forts are not made to propagate the fish
and restock the streams This is recog-

making private hatcheries to fill streams
from which they draw their supplies. Last
year the output of the Alaska packers
was 100000 cases of As pounds each, OF
48, 100000 pounds of canned salmon. This
year there will be a material falling off.
II is understood that Commissioner Brice
will ask congress for enough money to
establish hatcheries and thus keep alive
the salmon in the northern waters. Com.

strate that republican landslides of the
past two years have been reversed, if not
by giving as large majorities for the dem
ocrats, at least by changing something
like 100000 votes. The greatest surprise
of the returns is the gains made in assem-
bly, by the democrats, many of them be-
ing in counties and districts where there
was no expectation on the part of the
democratic managers of the winning. The
republicans will still control the assem-

shares of bank stock in the First National

before he died. The case went against
the adverse claimants. in the state SUI

been so tied up in litigation that no one

Brewer, and which has the effect of APP
