Called a Halt.

The Bureau of American Republics,
organized to promote trade among the
various republics of the Western
Hemisphere, recently issued the first
volumn of what is to be a compre-
hensive directory of the various coun-
tries forming the Bureau. In that
volume was large number of adver-
tisements, paying about $40, 900. The
reason adduced for soliciting the adj
vertising was the claim that the APP
preparation was too small to pay for
all of the work desired to be done by
the Director When the attention of
Secretary Sherman was called to the
action OF the Bureau, he very prompt
ly put a quietus on the whole pro-
ceeding, by stating that the Govern
ment is not operating big printing
office nor issuing works of that or any
other character for profit or to advance
the interests of any particular firm
or individual, and that there must be
no more of it, Your Uncle John al
ways had level head and notwith-
standing the fact that he is wei; up in
years, he has not lost any of the
sound, common sense which he always
possessed.

A Confidential Chat.

AS our readers are aware after the
first of January the editor of the
Herald will be absent from home the
greater portion of his time. In the
meantime he hopes to settle up all Of
the old subscription accounts, many
of which have been running for sever
al years. We have sent out state
ments time and time again, in most
cases without eliciting response.
With the hope that all may avail
themselves of our dollar offer we
shall continue it until the 18th when
it will be withdrawn. After the 18th
all subscription accounts of more than
two years standing will go to col
lector with instructions to collect.
Between now and then settlement
may be made on very easy terms.
We shall continue the publication
of the Herald, reports to the contrary
Notwithstanding, and it is our inten-
ton to give the good people of this
section better paper than heretofore.
Several new features will be added,
among which are series of Deeds of
Daring, the first of which appears
this week. There will also be some
stories from the very best writers of
the age, to run from one to three or
four weeks. Agricultural matter
fully illustrated, will be given a
prominent place. and we may add a
Fashion Department for the ladies.
We hope to make all of our sub
scribers a Christmas gift, but that
will depend upon their promptness in
settling the old accounts.

Took a Bicycle and Skipped.

When Lot Smith came down to the
Sheriff Office Thursday morning be
left his wheel, No 20 Rambler,
Serial No. 1904, standing against
the iron fence in front of the court
house.
Wednesday evening. late, man
registered at the Continental Hotel as
Irving Mullner, Newark. N. j. Hav-
ing no baggage he checked his over
coat, went to bed, ate his breakfast
next morning, presented his check
and was given the coat (another clerk
being on duty, left the coat lying on
the counter, walked across the street
and was seen by the clerk going
around the corner with a wheel which
he supposed had been expressed to
him.
About noon stranger offered a
colored man, in Harpers Ferry a
hundred dollar wheel for FIVE dollars,
but failed to sell because the SUPPOSE
ton was that it was stolen. The last
seen Of him he was crossing the Po-
tomac bridge.
An examination of the overcoat,
which is a fairly good one, disclosed
a dirty shirt in one pocket and red
cotton handkerchief and two purses in
the other. The purses contained but
tons aud buckles, nothing more.
1t is needless to say that Mr.. Smith.
who is very accommodating, does not
feel able to furnish free transportation
to all wayfarers. This was only a
special case.

PROSPERITY AND THE FARMERS.

The recent Democratic panic was
especially severe on the farmers. In
fact the panic-producing, free-trade
Wilson bill was a straight drive at the
agricultural class Wool was placed
on the free list, cutting the price Of
that commodity in half The bars were
left down to admit foreign manufac-
tured products which act closed
American mills and destroyed the
American market. Men cannot buy
when they have no work by which
they can earn money, and wheat and
corn and potatoes--in fact everything
produced on the farm-went begging
at half price or less.
The remedy proposed by Popocratic
quack doctors was deprecated CUT
rency. They had cut the price of ev-
erything in two except money and they
blandly proposed to perform a like OPP
Grafton on that and thus restore prices!
Nothing more farcical or dishonest was
ever suggested. They had destroyed
everything except the credit of the
Nation land that was badly shattered)
and they then proposed to perfect
their scheme of spoliation by an act
more diabolical than any heretofore
suggested in the history ofnations.
1t did not take long for the people
to put a quietus on the scheme, once
they got chance to vote. President
Mckinley never uttered more truth
ful sentence than when he said: 1.-The
people never before were so anxious to
vote.
They voted and prosperity came.
Very properly, it came first to the
farmers. Wheat and wool and pota-
toes and fruit and cattle and hogs and
horses and poultry and butter and
eggs-everything the farmer had to
sell doomed up to the top notch. 1t
came quick, too. 1t came in spite of
Bryan. the calamity bowler, and his
cohorts, and it has come to stay
Every paper one picks up gives an
account of advances in wages and the
opening of factories and mills and
mines. Men are finding work at fair
wages. Their families need food and
clothing, and, thank God, they will
soon have both. They have been
hungry and cold for a long time but a
brighter day has dawned. Comfort
will soon be welcome guest in all
American homes.
Ifthese things be true, and they are,
the question naturally arises: How
can, how dare a farmer or working
man ever again vote the Democratic
ticket? His duty TO himself, his fam
lily, his fellow-man, his country, for
bids it.

AN AnERIcAN IDEA.


The<Sratesman sagely remarks that
Senator Elkins' bill imposing discrim-
mating duties on foreign goods,
brought into this country in foreign
vessels, and from the Pacific coast
over the Canadian Pacific railroad, a
foreign corporation, proposes adding
another blow to those already in the
Dingley law against the extension OF
American commerce." II we did not
know that the editor OF the Statesman
is aware that the Dingley law has
already extended American commerce
far beyond anything heretofore at
tanned, he might be excused on the
plea of ignoranca. He knows OF the
proposed combination Of European
governments to protect themselves
against the expansion OF American
commerce. He knows that the lead
ing statesmen of Europe publicly
declare that their industrial indepen-
dence depends upon checking advan-
ces being made by Americans. He
knows that vessels are now loading at
New York with steel rails made in
Baltimore for India. He knows that
American iron thousands Of tons
have recently been bought by the iron
masters of England; that American
cutlery is being shipped to Sheffield;
that American prints find market in
Manchester; that every interest in
America is looking up; that American
wages are advancing; that during the
past week at least 10000 wage-earn-
ers have received voluntary advances;
that strikes and reductions are preya-
lent in Europe, and that never before
was there such glowing prospect for
Americans as now.
Yes, Senator Elkins' bill lis a Re-
publican idea," an idea of which every
American should be proud. 1t is the
idea which believes that American
commerce should be carried in Ameri-
can vessels, built by American me-
chanics and manned by American
sailors; and when that commerce
touches American shores, it should
be hauled to its destination over
American railroads, in American cars,
by American engines, with Ameri-
cans at the throttle.
The only cause tor sadness in con-
nection with this matter is the fact
that there should be found men of the
intelligence OF the editor of the
Statesman who will cry out against a
measure that is destined to make this
the greatest ocean carrying nation on
the globe-advanc us to the COM
handing position on the high seas to
which we have attained on the land.
That is the Republican idea and we
are proud to know that West Virginia
has a representative in the Senate
who is brave enough and brainy
enough to elaborate and advocate that
idea.

No, no, dear Democrat, the Herald
has not as yet had an opportunity to
tell the public about the legality of
the dismissal of certain Democratic
employees at the Distillery." We
have not beard of the DiStillery COM
pany discharging any Democratic
employees and it would be none OF our
business if they did. Every firm is
presumed to have the right to employ
whomsoever it pleases. If reference
is made to the injunction cases our
friends are in error as no Government
employees have been discharged. The
Herald maintains that a revocation of
assignment is not discharge.
Therein is the bone of contention.

Cause of "Pud" Bradshaw's Death.

The death of "Pud" Bradshaw, col
ored, Sunday. gave rise to rumors Of
a sensational nature that were utterly
without foundation. Bradshaw, who
is said to have been a "capper' for
the saloon of Harry Little, went into
that saloon after midnight last We'd
nesday night, picked up bottle Of
ginger ale, put it in to his pocket and
walked into the rear room. At the
time, Little was waiting on customers,
which done, he followed Bradshaw,
found him standing by the stove, took
the bottle out Of his pocket and struck
him a glancing blow on the arm and
shoulder. Bradshaw appealed to Lit
tie to not hurt him and started to run.
Little struck at him again, but the
bottle slipped from his grasp, struck
the wall and exploded. Little then
grabbed poker but Bradshaw made
his escape.
After wandering around from that
time until Friday night, drinking
heavily, Bradshaw went home hun
CRY and asked for something to eat
His mother noting his condition,
told him to go to bed. Finding some
canned beans he ate heartily of them
and by morning was suffering severely
from gastric catarrk (cold on the
bowels). DIR. S. N. Myers was called
Saturday morning and made careful
examination. employing the usual
remedies without effect, and death en-
sued.
Rumors of the difficulty in the
saloon were afoat and Coroner Nc
Kee summoned jury which found no
signs of violence on the body. In the
mean time DR.. Myers, on behalf of an
insurance company certified that the
death was from natural causes, being
positive that there was no cause what
ever for the report that Bradshaw was
injured by Little or anyone else. The
remains were inferred Wednesday.

Having been fired out of the pres

such star chamber proceedings are
not proper. The people want and are

blow, solar plexus, on the region OF

The World was very unjust to Hon
U. S. G. Pitzer this week in It's crit.
cism of his course in connection with
the death Of "Pud' Bradshaw. Either
ignorance of the facts or desire to in
jure 1--WE presume the former must
have been the cause OF its bad break.
Mr.. Pitzer fully investigated the case
and had sufficient evidence to con-
vince anyone that Bradshaw's death
was from natural causes. Everybody
knows that in the discharge OF his
duties Mr.. Pitzer knows neither friend
nor foe. He has never before been
charged with dereliction of duty and
in this instance there is not the slight
est reason for criticism. The World
should very promptly set itself right.

the Board may soon see its way clear
to add drawing. We understand
Prof. Luscomb will also resume

THE LOGIC OF THE SITUATION.

There was an election in Wheeling
last week on the question of refunding
the city debt, and the proposition was
defeated. The Intelligencer favored
and the Register opposed the measure,
if such it might be called.
The Register was quite iubilant and
ever since has been lauding itself and
the people, invariably printing the
word people" in capital letters. The
exuberance of the Register naturally
caused a rise of temperature about the
Intelligencer' sanctum, and con-
strained it to call the Register a ''yel-
low journal
The Register says rAnd theRegis-
ter and the PEOPLE won" Now, as
the people voted "a majority at leasD
as the Register suggested, and as the
Register and the people are one--ac-
cording to the Register-and the Reg
lister is a yellow journal, according
to the Intelligencer, therefore 1.-The
people" are also yellow,
1t is to be hoped this lucid explana-
ton of a mixed situation may be
satisfactory to our metropolitan con-
temporaries and that they may again
drop into their old grooves, the one to
portray the pleasures of prosperity and
the other to descant upon the intatu-
ating enchantment of 10 to I.

A Reward of rIerit.

Frequently, during the time the
Wilson bill was in operation and
bonds were being sold to supply the
difficulty and replenish the gold re-
serve, the Herald insisted that the
deficiency was not with our financial
system, but that the revenue laws
caused all the trouble. 1t was also
stated that the Nation was growing
poorer for the reason that we were
buying too much abroad. With the
enactment of the Dingley law change
occurred. Now, our exports exceed
our imports by 500, 900, 900 a month,
and for the first four months OF Re-
publican tariff the excess of exports
over imports is $225, 900, 900. The gold
reserve now amounts to $500, 900, 900,
and in addition hundreds of millions
of stocks and bonds have been re-
turned largely reducing our tribute to
Europe in the matter of interest pay
ments. This the reward to the people
for not making a mistake last year.
