near Cedar Bluff, at the home of

hearing all the evidence that Wag-

as it was clearly case of self defense,
and promptly dismissed Wagner.
Judge Coulling was called for the
defence of Wagner, at the trial, which
took place last Tuesday. William
Cutshaw was from Ohio, and had

school boards pay higher salaries
out of ''low' taxesi It's folly to kick
against the salaries and taxes too.
What has the school board to do
with it, They certainly do not run
too many schools and all they can do
is TO divide the whole amount of
school funds for salaries by the
whole number of school months to be
taught and the salary is fixed. Even

"Better salaries mean better teach.

at the same time cultivating q bad

Governorship, has spoken, and more
than one third of her delegates to
Roanoke will vote with the people
and help to nominate t"e champion

West Virginia.
So far, little more than 400 dele
gates have been elected, and of this
number 275 have been instructed to
vote for Major Tyler. But the friends
of Major Tyler should not relax their
efforts in his behalf-in fact, they
should bend their energies to make
the nomination unanimous. All sorts
of combinations are limited at here tc
work the defeat of Major Tyler. In
the contest here placards were dis
played "Vote for a city mani" II
that is to be the cry then every man
living in the rural districts should

EUGENE v. DEBS.
The Social Democracy of

A new organization, with Eugene
V. Debs as founder and leader, is
attracting attention in the United

The Society was organized in
Chicago, recently, and branch orders
are being organized all over the
country. There are at present sew.
eral hundred thousand members,
and increasing daily. The income
from all the different societies aggre
gate something like $4,000 per
month.
The object of the Society is TO
organize aud establish co operative
commonwealth in some Western
State, for the unemployed. The
idea seems to be to get possession of
Of boundary of land sufficiently
ample, and to build houses, factories,
stores ETC., lay out farmes and homes
for all who may wish to unite with
the organization.
While adhering, generally, to the
already existing Constitution, the
Society proposes to control entirely
the laws of the Territory, inaugurate
new laws as may be necessary, and

These are, we believe, the general
features of the Society's plans.
The desire to ameliorate the condi
tions OF the poorer classes, is a good
