The following from the Parkersburg
Sentinel Is a fair sample OF how certain
West Virginia newspapers Of the Popo-
cratic persuasion are wont to prejudice
the public against any movement which
Is for the benefit OF the Industrial devel-
opment OF the state, when 1t happens to
come from public servant who does not
owe his position to the party to which
they belong: =.
midnights OF profound study has reach
ed the sage conclusion that nothing Is
impossible with tho American Congress.
He proposes, therefore, to make the
West Fork creek navlgable for. steam
boats to Clarksburg by a lock and dam
system. just where he proposes to get
the, water in which to float his boats at-
ter the locks and dams are built Is NOT
made plain in his first proposition, Per-
haps he proposes 20 establish system o.
pumping stations froai some convenient
point and pump the necessary quantity
OF water from the Ohio river. Then 1t
could float down the stream to the pump
intersection, where Il would be taken UP
and sent back again to the West Fork,
and SO on continuously forever. It's a
great idea and there's millions In It.
The attempt at Righteousness regarding
practical proposition designed for the
best interests OF large section OF the
safe. rich In natural resources. is
doubtless fairly successful, from the
Sentinel editors funny point. OF view,
but should he take the trouble to make
an investigation he would ascertain that
the project Is hardly subject for rldi-
Guile. In the first place the West Fork
doesn't happen TO be a Greek" and the
feasibility OF locking and damming 1t for
coal barges, and to afford cheap outlet
for the tremendous tonnage capable OF
development between Fairmont and
Clarksburg has been favorably passed
upon by men who are more expert In
their judgment concerning the material
advantages OF the state. and the capa-
b!lities OF the stream. than all the bour-
bon editors In West Virginia are in the
art OF sneering at every proposition in
the line Of progress and industrial ad-
vancement.
Captain Dovener has taken his action
advisedy, and not without consultation
with competent engineers who have
pointed out, not only the feasibility and
the. comparatively small cost of the
scheme, but the immense advantages It
would be to the coal Industry OF the Up
per .Monongahela valley. The territory
along the West Fork of the Mononga-
hela river, Is quite as important and as
rich in resources, III not more so. as that
on the Little kanawha, or a half dozen
other streams OF the state. that are being
utilized in the work OF state development.

humorist of the Sentinel to the contrary

incidentally. the consuming desire of the
senator TO aid In the settlement Of the
Chiffon shortage, and the connection
that desire has with his personal ambl-

The silverites OF the state will note,
with unalloyed pleasure. the lively inter

Boss Croker and other OF Mr.. Faulkncrs
Tammany friends. This concern IN
West Virginia Democratic politics on the
part Of Boss Croker the uncrowned king
: OF New York, will be appreciated by the
friends of Sfr. Bryan in the state, espec-
Tally in view of the fact that croker's
sudden advent into national politics has
for Its prime motive the crushing out off
Organism in the Democracy.
There are interesting times ahead. and
those Democrats who have professcd to
have such a touching and unselfsh con-

GREAT GAME AMI, PRESERVE.

Meeting OF the Cheat River, W. Va,
Observation-Disclosures Elected.
Pittsburgh Dispatch: AT the Hotel
Duquesne last night many OF the stock
holders OF the Cheat River Association
met and elected officers for the. ensuing
year. The ticket presented and the one
which went through without opposition
was as follows: President, ". ". Ken
nedy; vice presidents, U. Baird; w. S.
Edwards, Nathaniel Ewing, w. G.
Brown and Hon. S. B. Elkins; secretary.
DR.. W. f. Robson; treasurer, Theodore
Sproull; naturalist and surgeon. DR.. W.

J. NJ. Bell and NJ. C. Miller. IS
The association has 200 members and
only elects members when any Of the
band dies. No one can get in any other
way. There are many applicants for
membership. but, like sthirty-th!rd de-
gree Masons. they must wait for the
hand OF death to make n place for them.
The game preserve In Randolph and
L w CSS ~
cludes &C 900 acres of the best game land
in the state. No families live on. the
preserve besides that of the game war;
den, or superintendent OF the preserve.
Mr.. c. n. Kellar. the superintendent,
was present at the meeting last night
and made his annual report to the mem
. bers present. Six ponds have recently
been built for the propagation of fish.
In these ponds 5000 eggs of, the. eyed
trout species have been placed and their
propagation Is part Of the work Of the
warden.
The lease of the preserve extends for
forty years yet, the original lease Of this
territory being for fifty years. Mr..
Sproull said that all kinds Of game ex-
cept quail were to be had In this re-
serve, and Mr.. Hazard, of Allegheny.
said that 4 man had to go we'll armed
there or he would be eaten by the bears
that insisted on haunting the preserve.
The latest attempt in the line Of stock
ing with game Is the placing in the pre-
serve OF English and Monaghan pleas
ants. These birds will be carefully
tended by the superintendent, and will
be allowed to multiply until they have
increased sufficiently to warrant the at
tempts OF the sportsmen.
The game laws OF West Virginia are
studiously observed. 1t is hardly obllg-
atory upon the part Of the gentlemen
owning this preserve that this be So,
but they wish to set good example,
and although their preserve abounds
with deer. they will not shoot any for
the full five years prescribed by the
laws Of the state.
The membership Of this association
comes from all over the United States.
1t includes some Of the most widely
known men In the country. The season
extends from May until December 81.
The well-appointed lodge is always open
TO the members, and IS rarely. tenant
legs.

SPANS YOUNG FARRAGUT.
The Mi2shipmHn who Was on the
Vizcaya believed to BE in
Spain Now.

When, in February last, the now
erful Spanish cruiser Vizcaya paid
visit to New York the naval authorities
took the most careful precautions to
insure her safety. The Maine, it will
be remembered, had been blown up
a few days before her arrival. The
commander of the NiZcaya, Capt Eu-
late, protested against these precau-
tions, declaring in the strongest terms
that he was willing to trust his ship
unguarded in this harbor To the re-
porters who visited him on the ship
he recalled the many years of peace
and amity that had existed between
the two nations, anC tnen, struck by
an inspiration, he ordered to the quar-
ter-deck a young midshipman, and,
pointing to him, asked the reporters
how two nations could ever be other
than friends when each had raised a
Farragut. One was already immor
talized. he said; the other had yet o
show by deeds of valor that the real
Farragut blood was in him.
Capt. Eulare, becoming enthusiastic
as the picturesqueness of the situation
developed. went on to explain that his
young midshlpman was Sanchez Far
ragut, who was born in Minorca, off
the coast of Spain, whence the great
American admiral's progenitors had
come. he had no doubt that his young
sailor was of the real Farragut stock.
The Vizcaya sailed away and in the
excitement of the war that followed
Mr. Midshipman Farragut was all but
forgotten. Foiiuw1Is- &c obstruction
of Admiral Cervera's squadron and the
capture of so many prisoners, the few
who remembered the Farragut Incl
dent looked in vain for line about
the fate of young Farragut. Weeks
passed and me grea5 nava- battle bade
fair to pass into history without the
mystery being solved, until one who
remembered the incident on the deck
Of the Vizcaya in New York harbor
wrote an inquiry to Admiral Cervera
at the naval academy. Annapolis.
The incident doubtless interested
the admiral, for he took pains to make
inquiries. The result was that he re-
piled through the medium of Lieu
tenant Commander E. X Moore, as
sistant to the superintendent of the
naval academy, that upon the arrival
of the Vizcaya at Havana, to which
port the warship went after leaving
New York, young Farragut was taken
i'll. Later he was sent to the naval hos
pital in Havana, and the Vizcaya sailed
for the Cape Verde islands to join Adj
miral Cervera's squadron and Farra
gut was left behind To the best of the
admira's knowledge and belief, Lieut..
Moore wrote, Farragut was sent back
to Spain. At all events he did notre
join his ship, and consequently was not
in the battle of fSantiago.-N. Y. Sun.
