and seated John Hargrave, Populist, in
his stead. The press report the action OF
the Popufist majority In the house was
most arbitrary in its nature and vas an
exhibition of unfairness and the brute
force of a majority never equsled in the
history of the state. Without submitting
TO a fair and impartial Investigation OF
the contest, the Pops rairoaded their con-
testing brother into the easy chair and
ousted Sims from his former capital posi-
ton. We don't care to condemn the Pop
ulists any more than some other political
party. We care not whether Mr.. Sims
was q Republican, Democrat, Popllist or
whether he was Identified with some other
political party: he should not be dnseated
without a fair and impartial investigation
. OF his right TO a seat.

time-honored old minstrel joke about

trip through the mountains no longer
remains one of crossing the English
channel on a particularly rough day.
This will be welcime news to the
general public and B. & o. enthusiasts
people who would not take any other
route to their destination if the b. d
o. would possibly serve them. These
are mostly passionate admirers of nat
ural scenery, to whom the gigantic
panorama along the b. & o. route can
never become stale. Indeed, why
should it. when it is never twice the
same? Scenery on a scale Of such i'm
mensity is like the ocean in its sus-
captibility to change. Not only with
the seasons but with the days, does its
beauty vary. And even through a
summer day it is never the same scene
an hour at time. Like kaleidoscope,
which the slightest alteration in posi-
ton occasions a totally new view, so
the forests and the mountains along
this scenic route assume wholly new
appearances with every passing cloud
and every weather condition.
Now that the exaggerated bug-bear
of the B. & o. curves has been finally

Wheeling lost simply through lnabil-

of Hickman. There was a little hard
luck about some Of the drives dropping
into the hands of fielders. but New
Castle hit Garyey hard enough in the
first three innings TO win any game.
Aside from the weak hitting OF the
home club. it was an interesting con-
test. There was some hair raising
fielding on both sides. Hickman Sayed
the home club from scoring in the
first. when there were two men on
bases. by catching a hot liner from
O'Brien's bat with his left hand, and
throwing to first in time to retire loft
and complete a double play. Carney

Wheeling was saved from a white

gave Taylor a life. Taylor stole sec
