Joe Ruzick was before Justice Cardin last
night, charged with threatening to kill Peter
Zumbeck. The two men work on a breaker
platform and yesterday Ruzick stated in a
commonplace manner that he proposed to
kill Zumbeck ON the platform at the first
opportunity. When arraigned before Justice
Cardin Ruzick said he had changed his mind
about the killing and was allowed to settle
the case by paying the costs

The Board appointed by Governor
Atkinson to select site for the ioca
ton of the Home for Incurables had
a meeting last week and adjourned to
meet again on May IS. Nearly all of
the larger towns in the State are put
ting forth efforts to secure the Home,
except Martinsburg 1t may be pos
sible that our people consider il use
less to enter the contest by reason of
the fact that this section has no repre-
sentative on the Board, but that,
instead Of being a source of weakness
might give us strength. OF one thing
we are sure: IF the Board wishes to
find location where pure air and
water may be had and where the
health of patients would be improved,
then this locality would have no OPP
position.

Sensible Suggestions.

The season is here when the streets
and back alleys should be thoroughly
cleaned, A clean town adds to the
comfort and convenience of every citi-
zen. 1t is an advertisement for the
place worth much more than the cost
of cleaning. 1t creates a favorable
impression upon strangers, it attracts
population and adds to the taxable
wealth Of the town A clean town
pays the biggest kind of dividends,
because it prevents disease and pro-
notes business. There is nothing
that detracts more than to see lot of
rubbish, old vehicles and unsightly
stuff along tie streets and alleys.
Every citizen should make it his bust
ness to at once clean up his own prem
ises and the authorities should look
after the streets and alleys. Let clean
illness and springtime commence to-
gether Eek.
We do not know who wrote the
above because some one marked it
lex" in order to rob the writer of the
honor which is justly his, but we do
know that it applies to Martinsburg
and should be needed. Cleanliness
wrongs no one. Filth and rubbish
are pestilential

CIVIL SERVICE.

The Martinsburg Herald is getting
sicker as the days roll by and the
civil service laws still remain in force.
1t has had several mild spasms over
the matter and the hopefulness and
buoyancy it exhibited in the early
days of the administration are giving
away to sadness and gloom The
enthusiastic praise of the Senators and
Representative and of Republicans in
general that filled the columns i'm
mediately after the election is now
succeeded by reproaches and repining
and mysterious threats, with bitter
deuunciatjon of the civil service law
and the Democrats who are enjoying
protection under it. We sympathize
deeply with the Herald, for that s
Just the way we felt four years ago,
except, of course, we were not looking
for an office.
In striking contrast to the Herald S
gloom is the eXuberant joyfulness of
the Clarksburg Telegram. Our elo-
quent friend, the Hon Stuart +. Reed
its publisher, has succeeded in bag
ging the post-oflice, and he is at
peace with all mankind.> His paper
is still publishing campaign cuts of
Congressman Dovener and Senator
Elkins, and all the expressive adjec-
tives in his repertoire are trotted out
to emphasize the utterable magnifi-
cence of the great patriots. AS for
President McKinley-well, he
is just too sweet and lovely and ex-
allied for any use In the language
of the Telegram, the people stand
with uncovered heads in the presence
of ''the purest and grandest represen-
tatives of American manhood. "
The man at the feast and the fellow
face to face with the famine are apt to
look at things in a different way
Shepherdstown Register.
The frankness of the Register is
refreshing. The editor of the Herald
might have been safely housed under
the civil-service roof but refused to
accept the hospitality profered. Upon
the advent of the Cleveland admistra-
ton he stepped out and allowed a
victor to enjoy that portion of the
spoils. If he now had any wish or
desire to be restored to the position he
held, it would be an easy matter to
pass the examination and secure an
appointment.
1t is not necessary for us to re-state
our position on the subject of civil
service. That is known and read of
all men. The only difference between
the Register and the Herald is that
the Register favors civil service dur
ing Republican administrations and is
opposed to it when Democrats are in
power, while the Herald is opposed to
the Cleveland brand first, last and all
the time

Paul preaching to the Jews Acts

Golden text, Through this man is
preached unto you the forgiveness of

was the command of their King.
Matt. 10: 6, Luke "a: AZ. Recognized
by Paul, Rom. 2: o-1o. Their rulers
invited this rehearsal of Gods cove

that David's seed, even Jesus, was
the promised Saviour, who died, was
risen no more to see corruption; was
seen Of many, and now declared to be
the glad tidings. He preached
through Him the forgiveness of their
sins, and justification from all things.
But they opposed the truth SO that,
as was foretold, the preacher turned
from them TO the Gentiles, receiving
persecution and expulsion from God S
people. But God hath not cast away

DEMOCRACY AS IT WAS AND IS

DEMOCRACY AS III WAS AND IS
Democrats are nothing if not pecul-
lar. Every four years they construct
platform different from anything
ever before imagined. label it Jeffer-
Jacksonian Democracy and go forth
preac ing panaceas for all the ills the
Nation is heir to. In 1860 it was that

Silver-I6 to j. Some one has said
that Democracy is like cat, because
it fights st when lying on its back.
One thing is sure, it always comes
back.
1t invariably has hobby or patron
saint and never fails to adhere to it as
long as it endures. When Grover
Cleveland was discovered, Democracy
took to him as naturally as to corn
juice and continued to imbibe copious
drafts until the party for once got
enough. Mention his name in the
presence of the faithful and then notice
the woe begone expression which in
stantly o'erspreads his physiognomy
Ethnologists agree that Grover is the
only thing of which Democracy ever
got enough They are awfully tired
of Free Trade, too, but viii not admit
the fact. Since seeing is believing
and as they have felt the effects of
Free Trade and know how it pinches,
they want to pass it by, but are not
certain as to Bryan's ability to pull
them out OF the Slough of Despair on
his 10 to 1 plank. The fact is, after
their experience with Grover, they
are shy of meteoric statesman, those
who attract attention by dramatic
defamation or vapid verbosity.
Justnow "Dingleyism, which they
claim will "bunco farmers with prom
Uses of increased duties on imported
eggs, potatoes, hay and other agricul-
tural products, is the burden of
their song. The argument is that the
enhanced price of farm products lad
hitting that Protection does protect
farmers) will not make up for the in
creased price of other commodities
which farmers have to buy. The at
tempt to deceive farmers will not go
this time. They already note the in
creased price of lambs, sheep, horses,
and land They also know that they
were more prosperous under Protec-
ton than they have been under Free
Trade. Their experience has been
paid for and it was costly.
The Democratic position on the f.
nancial question is fully as incousist-
emit. Demanding the free and I'M
limited coinage of silver at the ratio
OF 10 to 1, they are fain to invoke the
spirit of Jefferson on all occasions for
getting that he said that 1.-THE proper
ton between the values of gold and
silver is a mercantile problem alto
gether" Such is Democracy as it
was and is; what it will be the future
only can reveal.
