THE LAUGH OF A CHILD

There's the laugh of the dawn in the wax
ing east,
And the laugh Of the monday sky:
The laugh of the breeze; the delirious laugh
or the flame when the night-winds sigh.
There's the laugh of the stars and the
meadow brook,
OF the sea and the festal wine,
The frivolous laugh and the wonderful
laugh
OF the heart at affections shrine.
There's the laugh, of the rose at the setting
moon, Il f4
When the night has flown away. -.
But the happest laugh, the ineffable laugh
iaasn Oh une cuAu d. pay.

THE STATUS QUO AND ANIMUs
OF Democracy In West Virginia 80
Temporal! o MorCs'


Temporal! o MorCs'
To the Editor of the Register.
Sir:-The condition prevailing in Demo-
cratic political affairs in West Virginia
as revealed particularly by the result OF
the late Congressional contest, is not iat'
tering to the hope nor at all satisfactory
10 the thinking. intelligent, unpretentious
vet earnest members Of the constituent
mass of men OF the State who are Demo-
Gratis for the sake of good government
without reference TO any resultant, sepa-
rate and peculiar benefit TO themselves as
individuals.
There are many things which appear to
them unnatural and subversive of the in
tegrity and real objects of party devotion
and unity. These abnormal conditions
have become subjects of national inquiry,
and if possible of serious and radical cor
rection much more rapidly than the mind
of the average mere politician is capable
of approaching.
Men-when ! say men" it is with the
utmost signihcance-who in their early
manhood passed through the fires of that
hell of a quarter Of a century ago, enkin-
died by the hatred of pure democratic prin-
ciples and government, in alliance with
others will now institute that inquiry.
and they will demand to remedy many
things which they are unable to reconcile
with entire justice and propriety to them
selves. for to them the conventional apoi-
ogies for the existence of these condi-
lions cannot be based upon either logic.

They have. however, recognized one Of
the effects or consequences of these false
and odious conditions in the depreciation
of democratic. Intellectual, moral and nu-
merical strength to the danger line; and
this will be the subject of still deeper in
vestigation. Why has disappeared the
very considerable Democratic majority
that distinguished the character of West
Virginia in the Southern Sisterhood, when
the shackles were stricken from her young
and vigorous limbs?
They want TO know if this humiliating
weakness now is due to the disgust, de-

A STRONG DENIAL.

To the Editor of the Register.
sir:-The undersigned correspondent de-
slres to state, through your columns thaO
the Weston correspondent has grossly
misrepresented the facts regarding the
tar and feathering of two females' do
charged in the State press.
In last Sundays issue of the Register
there appeared an article setting torth an
alleged III treatment of two women al
the hands of a mob of twenty men. We
deem it proper to set forth the facts.
your correspondent has interviewed u.
NJ Chldester, the prosecuting attorney Tor
the county of Lewis. and who, after d
thorough investigation of all the facts
saws that the telegram deserves the con-
demnation of all worthy citizens OF the
county.
The two women in question bear a most
shady reputation, and the good people Oh
Rrovnsyille were DESTROYS of driving them
from the community. Mob law IS never
Unsuitable. and we regret that those peo-
ME did not seek a legal remedy 10 dlS-
nose of the characters involved; but brie1-
" the facts are these: EXasperated by
continuous misconduct by the alleged out
RACED women. a few of the best young
men of that vicinity went to the house
whore these solled hands sojourned and
asked them to talk walk upon the con-
sideration of immoral purposes. After
they had taken a walk a short distance
from the house. bunch of tar was
thrown upon the hair of one Of the fe-
males. and also small patch on the
forehead Of the other girl, when they
were admonished to 80 back home and do
better. No violence at all was committee.
The affair occurred four miles from Wes-
ton. and not here, as your correspondent
misrepresented,

Colun,b,,s. o.. May 9.-The faculty Of

fifteen students, five Of whom were

Ohio Wesleyan students. Prof. Whit

were disciplined in the last ten days
on the charge of entering saloons,
drinking or gambling. The students
armed themselves with eggs and called
on Prof. Whitlock at midnight. They
rang the door bell, but the Professor
would not come out. Mrs. Whitlock
threw up a window and called for help.
The students plastered the front of the
house with eggs and broke the glass in
the door and transom.

OF the country and the labor employed in
the tanneries and leather goods factories

They direct the Senator's attention to
the fact that our foreign trade in leather
and leather goods has risen from Sl,O00OoO
i'm 1879. the year after hides were put on
the free list. to $2O.OOOoO0 in 1896. and they

They assure him that the immediate ef-

THE TARIFF FRAUD.


HIGH TARIFF \ BOOMERANG.
Sioux City Tribune.
Germany is strictly republican so far
as the tariff ic concerned. She does all in
her power 70 keep the products of the
United States out of her territory. and
then cries aloud with rage if she is treated
in the same manner over here. All eoun-
tries that adopt such policy find sooner or
later that It has tendency to react.
NOT DESIGNED TO RAISE REVENUE.
New York Journal.
The confession that the Dingley bill as
Il came from the House. stamped with the
Mckinley administrations approval. fails
as a revenue measure leaves protection
standing naked before the country. 1t
is thus revealed that the purpose of pro-
lection as it is upheld by the party In
power is not to fiji the national treasury,
but TO turn the stream of wealth which
should so there from the custom house
into the pockets Of the citizens who are
in the enjoyment Of Republican favor.
MERELY TO FATTEN MONOPOLY.
New York Times.
Inere was no ueeu OF Il tdIlH Dili. i no
Republicans now tardily admit this by
their proposition TO raise by internal taxes
an amount even larger than the current
deficit. This they should have done in the
first place. They have disturbed the bus
mess of the country and checked return
ing prosperity for no public reason but
simply at the demand of the favored pri-
waite industries upon which they are ac-
customed TO rely for campaign funds.
VIOLATING A DISTINCT PLEDGE.
Boston Post.
The Republican party came into power
In the government on the distinct issue
and pledge Of maintaining sound money
and reforming the currency system. That
is what the people who elected Mckinley
voted for Instead OF fulfilling the pledge
and realizing the expectations of the peo-
pie. the Republican party plunges into
an orgy of protection" and gives no
thought TO the currency or to the relief Of
the financial situation. This Is a breach
Of faith which the people resent.
