The Legislature having made
preparations for the establishing Of
two new State institutions, a Girls
Industrial School and Home for
lncurables. we suggest that King
wood should make an effort 10 SO
cure one or the other Of these i'm
portant institutions No healthier
or better place than this could be
selected for an institution similar
to these, and If we get together and
make the proper effort our chunces
are very good TO get what would be
- big help TO our town and the
whole county, as it would insure
the outlay Of considerable money
oil the time. which would add very
materially TO our small amount OF
circulating medium. There is
quite contest going on among the
towns Of the State over the secur-
ing Of the Industrial School for
Girls. Martinsburg has offered 40
acres Of ground for site, but that
location IS not looked upon with
HuCh IaYOT5 because OF lts remote
ness from the center Of the State.
Grafton, CIarksburg, Parkersburg
and Fairmont have also made offers
Of ground for sites, and tho proba-
bllltlss are that one Of these towns
will get 10. Gov. Atkinson has not
yet appointed the regents, but he
has offered ore Of the appointments
TO DR.. Harriet y. Jones, Of Wbocl-
ing who for several sessions Of the
Legislature worked ndustrou5iy
TO secure passage Of tho bin proyid-
ing for the home.

Chicago, January 6.-John W. Doane
has retired from the presidency of the
Merchants Loan and Trust Company
He was reelected president and direct
or, but has telegraphed from Omaha,
declining to serve. All this was part
of a pre-arranged plan, except the tel
egram. it was understood that he was
to be rendered a reelection, which he
was to decline, presumably by mail. The
resignation is the result Of a series Of
arrangements between the president
and some of the directors and stock
holders, apparently owing more or less
TO Mr.. Doane's connection with the
Diamond match pool and the state
ments that Mr.. Doane was large bor-
rover at the institution of which he
was president.

most wholly with State affairs. lie
notes in opening, the satisfactory con-
dition of the finances of the State. The
providing for work for conyicts is es-
necially recommended TO the attention
Of the legislature, in which connection
it is suggested that short term men may
be employed in making or improving
roads.
The subject of civil service the Gov
saws. has provided capital to many
who would otherwise be bankrupt.
In my judgment" he adds, civil
service will work better with less
starch. An examination for public
place should be suitable to the kind
of service required and sufficient mar
gin should be given those making ap-
pointments so that the most competent
helm can be selected Experience,
character. tact and even muscle may
be of more Importance in some cases
than the fraction Of one per cent III an
examination in geography.

What is to become of the colored
brother?
The Afro-American is factor,
but he doesn't know how to use
himself.
The colored man is a political
nonenity.
Don't be alarmed, as the political
bugle will be sounded soon.
Don't forget what your duty is.
The civil service should be a5ol-
ished.
1t is a fake as we'll as a fraud.
Would it not be a good idea to
cite some of the Cabinet officers be-
fore a civil service examination?
The republican party may adhere
to civil service, but it will cause
sorrow in 1900.
The President will make all con-
sular and diplomatic appointments.
Hon. John NJ. Langston should
be given recognition.
In union there is strength.
District republicans should be

If one half of the Cabinet officers
were requested TO take civil SER
vice examination, how many would
pass:
Secretary Gage is man of e1-
cellent parts.
