AN EDUCATIONAL PARADOX.

AN EDUCATIONAL PARADOX.
Clarksburg Mail
A most remarkable condition exists
at present in the affairs of our State
University at Morgantown. This insti-
futon has been doing a considerable
amount of advertising within the past
few years-not in the papers of the
State, but in the large metropolitan
magazines OF other states The object
OF this advertising is to increase the
number Of students at the University.
and as advertising always pays, the
student body has grown until it is now
gratifyingly close to the one thousand
mark
With this fattering state of affairs
existing one would naturally suppose
that the institution is in flourishing
condition; but we now have the start
ling intelligence from that seat of learn
ing, that there is no money to pay the
professors, and that they are discount
ing their salary vouchers at the local
banks. A despatch from Morgantown
to the daily press declares that "the
University will go to the Legislature
with big deficit to be made up before
the regular appropriations are asked
before in the history of the institution
owing to the increase of departments
and the increase in the student body"
In other words, "the more students,
the more deficit" "The more business,
tie less profit" Now let's see. It is
presumed that the University was
were and are now taxed, for the pur-
mr. Of iy,r, no hnxy Nf Va, Wv,
ginia. This being the object of the in
Stitujon and our State being young
and our people poor, the tuition for
students was fixed at 2D nominal sum,
and the balance was made lp by tax
alton. This worked all right, and there
was no particular harm done until the
magnificent and generous proposition
finds space in the swelling head-pieces
of the University management to edu-
cate the youth of the nation at the eX-
pense of West Virginia Advertise
ments are sent broadcast to this effect
in the Leading magazines OF the coun-
try" State papers are ignored, and
the result is, that the sons of other
states flock to our institution, where
they can get an education almost free,
while the West Virginia boys stay at
home and hustle for the taxes to keep
up the institution.
There is no objection to the sending
of their sons to our University by the
citizens of other states, but their tut
ton should be placed at such a figure
that it would represent a profit to the
State. There is something wrong in
the management of an institution,
which loses money by increasing its
business.

The Cattle Baron is at chihuahua
Mexico.
Kansas City, Mo-, December "A
despatch to the Journal from Chihua-
hua, Mexico, says:
Grant C. Gillett, the missing Kansas
cattle plunger, whose sudden disap-
pearance startled the financial world
arrived in Chihuahua on November
23d, and left on the morning of the oath
for Durango, where it is stated that he
deposited large sum of money in the
bank.
He remained only a short time in
Durango, when he bought return
ticket to Chihuahua At Jiminez he
was met by his attorney, C. r. Troxel,
and the two entered into low CONVEX
sation and remained together until
they reached Chihuahua. They arriv-
ed here last Monday and went to the
leading hotel, where they registered.
The man was undoubtedly Gillett, as
lid OlSuotulC COI CopOAuCo Win iilo
signature on a document held in this
city.
Troxel left Thursday on the stage
for the West, presumably to the min
ing camps in the Sierra Madre noun
tains.
Gillett is still in the city, but his
whereabouts are unknown except to
the detectives who are closely shadow
ing his movements.
The report that Gillett had been ar
rested and held in custody here is I'M
true. The Jeafe Politico says that the
Mexican authorities have not seen him
and know nothing of his wherea bouts.
He will be arrested Immediately up
on the arrival of the authorities from
the States, who are expected to arrive
soon from Ell Paso. Their baggage is
all in this city and on one of the trunks
is tag with the name, c. R. Troxel
Three letters which have arrived at
the hotel for G. c. Gillett have myster-
iously disappeared.

phasis than in the Eternal City The
Oldest old world regards the new with
feelings of anger disgust and alarm al
most too great for words. The sentiment
of Indignation differs in intensity. But it
is universal. There is no sympathy for
the United States either among whites or
blacks. In fact dislike of the American
seizure of the Philippines, and a convic-
ton that the humane enthusiasm which
made the war possible was a mere mask
of can't, assumed in order to facilitate con-

Pertinent Press Comment.
OUR GARRISONS,

New York Times.
How much ground there is for the
complaint of the license taken by our
troops in Porto Rico nobody knows.
That there is some ground everybody
must know. The Porto hicans were
not predisposed against US. Very much
the contrary. They welcomed our SOL
diars with open arms. If they have
now been induced to distrust and Gis-
like them, tie fault is on the part Of
the troops. They are volunteers, and
their officers do not know how to en-
force the discipline which is absolutely
necessary to prevent a garrison of arm
ed foreigners from being curse and a
terror to the population among which
it is stationed.
There are complaints of the same
sort from Cuba. The repeated protests,
public and private, against the be-
haviOr of the volunteers who have sue
ceeded the regulars in the Province OF

Ellenboro, W. Va, December 1.-THE
Register correspondent has been re-
liably Informed That charter has been
applied for for the much-tadked- rail
road that will be built either from New
Martinsville or Sistersville through
Tyler, Richie, Calhoun and Gilmer
counties, tapping the rich coal fields OF
Gilmer, and then continue through the
virgin forests of the adjacent counties
to Charleston, where an outlet will be
had via the Big Kanawha river and an
intersection made with the Chesapeake
and Ohio railroad. Various surveys
have been made over this route within
the last few years, some with Barnes
vile as the objective point, where an
intersection would be made with the
West Virginia and Pittsburg system,
but the direct route to Charleston is
thought to be the more feasible AMI
economical. 1t is stated that Charles
ton can be reached from either Ellen
boro or Pennsboro within seventyfye
miles over a good route without a sin
gle tunnel Now by the shortest rail
route the distance to Charleston is 1870
miles. During the life time of M. p.
Kimball, the president of the Penns-
boro and Harrisville railroad, he spent
a1;I HI Of % L, n
preliminary surveys, as he was firm
believer in the great benefits both to
the capitalist and land owner of sucn
a route, and no more successful or con-
servative business man ever lived than
Moses P. Kimball. The rich coal fields
'of Gilmer and other counties, together
with the immense tracts of timber land
that the new line would poss through,
will furnish a remunerative revenue
from the beginning, and the general
increase in revenue along the line is
we'll known. Throughout Ritcnie
county there seems to be a disposition
on the part of leading citizens to sub
scribe freely to fund that will insure
the building of the road, which will be
of incalculable value to the county.
The Cairo and Kanawha Valley rail
road, owned largely by H. S. WilsCn
and his associates, has proven to the
people of Grant district the advantage
OF railroad communication.
Should the new route materialize, it
is thought the Pennsboro and Harris
VILE railroad will be purchased and the
roadbed of that line be utilized as far
as Harrisville.
