Editorial Notes.

The manufacturing industries which the
protective system has brought to such
perfection are still steadily moving south
ware and carrying with them the protec-
ton sentiment into that section Of the
country. The latest example of this is
found IN the Indian Head Cotton Mills OF
Cordova, A.a., whose proprietors have
just closed contract for the sale Of the
entire output Of their mills in China dur
Ing i've year period.
Ihyle is growing feeling that the ele-
ments ct patriotism and OF willingness to
give the party in power an opportunity to
test its proposed principle which caused
the passage Of the tariff bill may result in
drawing together sufficient number of
votes IN the Senate TO pass a bill based
upon the propositions Of President Mckin-
ley 5 message, in which be recommends a
system by which it will be impossible to
embairass the Government by continu-
ance Of the use of the greenbacks to draw
gold out of the Treasury.
The calm, clear, and forceful express
sions Of the prospective course of the
Government in the Cuban question in
case the Spanish promises of autonomy and
justice to the Cubans are not carried
out have impressed the country very
greatly in his favor, and have developed a
general Willingness to leave this important
and delicate question in the hands OF the
administration instead Of attempting to
forge action and embarrass the Govern

demanded by 50 many people a few

town, was in the city yesterday. He
is Turk, and graduate of the law
department of the State University.
He came to Wheeling to locate, under
the impression that there was a large

obtained it he settled first at Phila-
delphia and then at Shepherdstown.
The board Of regents gave him the

THE MONTH OF SEPTEMBER.
The Hottest, Coolest and Dryest Known
for Years.

The month of September was in
many respects the most remarkable on
record. 1t had the warmest Septem-
Der day on record for years. The long
est warm spell on record was also ex-
perienced. Prostrations from the heat
were numerous. Schools closed and
factories shut down on account of the
heat. Then came cold snap, and
the mercury reached the lowest notch
it had reached in September for long
time. Along with its other peculari-
ties the month was also a very dry
dry one. But few showers fell and
these were of no consequence. How
ever, the trees and all vegetation were
kept quite green by the heavy dews
which have fallen.

ANOTHER PREXY.
President Andrews, Of Brown Uniyer-
verify, Accepts the Invitation TO At
tend Doctor Raymond's inaugural
something about the Man-Fourth
College President to Accept.


A letter has been received by
Hon. George c. Sturgiss, from Pres
ident Andrews of Brown University
accepting the invitation extended
to him to be present at the inaugur-
alton of DR.. Raymond. DIR. Andrews
is probably the most talked of edu-
Gator in the country and his pres
ence here will aid in drawing big
crowd. He was asked to resign by
the trustees of Brown University on
account of his bimetallic views. This
action provoked such storm of in
dignant criticism that the trustees
were glad to rescind it. They asked
President Andrews to reconsider the
the resignation and after careful de-
liberation he did so. The matter
was caused in the first place, it is
said, by Rockefeller promising the
University large endowment If the
President were removed. DR.. An
drews is the fourth college president
to accept the invitation. Harper, of
Chicago; Adams, of Wisconsin, and
Wilson, of Washington aud Lee
being the others. The news of their
acceptance was published in this pa
per on last Thursday on the day on
which they were received.

Unable to Walk.

From letters received here from
Pruntytown it has been learned that
Jesse b. Protzman was quite badly
hurt during the burning of the public
school building up there a few nights
since. He was very DESTROYS of saving
some things which were in his school
room, and in his haste kicked the
window in. His foot during the OPP
Grafton was badly cut, the broken
glass running in, in one place more
than an inch. He is unable to walk
and is suffering considerable pain. We
hope that the accident may not result
seriously.
No clues have as yet developed in
regard to the identity Of the incendi-
aries, and it is doubtful If they are
ever discovered.
