Immense quantities of coal from the
Fairmont district are being shipped
to the Northwest by way OF Wheel
ing. The cars come over the BATH
more & Ohio from Fairmont and Mo-
nongah and are here transferred to the
Cleveland, Lorain G Wheeling and the
Wheeling & Lake Erie. Most OF it
goes to Toledo and Lorain, which ale
distributing points. These heavy ship
ments have caused boom in business
for the Wheeling Bridge & Terminal
Company, over whose tracks mere cars
are being transferred than at any time
since the road was placed In opera
ton. Last night train consisting OF
fifty cars Of coal was taken over the
Union bridge by two engines. The
toll collector On the bridge states that
the betterment Of business also en-
braces general freights.
= The West Virginia coal is being
sent to the Northwest to fill the con-
tracts of the Pennsylvania operators.
The Pennsylvania operators are bound
for a year by the wage agreement
signed in Chicago recently. The wages
in the Farmont region, and the better
facilities for mining coal cheaply, ena-
Bile the Fairmont operators to put cCal
in the Northwest at prices which, it
is said, are not higher than the cost
Of production in Pennsylvania.
Under this condition OF affairs, the
Pennsylvania operators have found it
to their advantage to allow their mines
to remain idle, and to fill their con-
tracts by purchasing West Virginia
coal. Most of them have resorted to
this means, and the result is great ac-
tivity in the coal fields in this State,
and a corresponding depression invest
ern Pennsylvania. The officials Of the
United Mine Workers have taken cog
nizance Of the condition of affairs, and
it is possible that another effort will
be made to control the miners in this
State.

position. 1t is proposed to unvell at
that time a monument to the Marquis
de Lafayette, who rests in an almost
unknown grave il the grounds Of the
convent of the Petit PjCpus,
1t is designed that this monument
shall be paid for with money con-
tributed by the young people of the
United States. The governors OF all
the states have been asked to desig-
nate October the I0th-the anniver-
sary of Cornwallis's surrender at
Yorktown-as Lafayette Day. Il
is requested that on that day, in every
school, from the Kindergarten to the
college, Lafayette's services to this
country shall in ome way be recog-
nized.
This observance may take the form
of a patriotic entertainment, to which
a nominal admission fee shall be
charged. 1t may be limited to a talk
by the teacher, a simple retelling O
the story of liberty, and a collection
of the pennies that scholars have beer
asked to bring. The amounts col
lected large OF snail, will be forward
ed to the national Comptroller of thu
Currency, who is the treasurer of thu

1t is hoped that, in the aggregate
they will suffice to erect the monumen

THK Democrats of Graham coun-

selves TO be deceived by the plain
tiff whine of the Republicans calling
upon them to vote the Republican
ticket "just this once" so that we
may be admitted to statehood.
They are no more in favor of state
hood now than they were when
they defeated home rule, and then
boasted of their victory. Home
rule was the stepping stone used by
Utah to enter the union of States
and would have been used in like
manner by Arizona had it not been
defeated by the Republicans.
Every time you hear them cry
Statehood you will hear them cry
four times against silver and greon.
backs. They would deceive you
and prostitute the cause of state
hood to the defeat of silver. They
wish Democrats to vote the Repub-
lican ticket not to gain statehood
but to weaken the cause Of silver
by sending from mining region,
from grand old Arizona, the cham.
pion of silver, gold bug delegate
to Congress. But this will never
be consummated; the Democrats of
the Territory know their strength;
they know that whenever we get
statehood it will be by the flee sill.

going to throw that chance away

to defend Mr.. Payne; we presume
he is able to do that himself and
the convention will decide on his
merits.
What we object to IN the last ls-
sue ofthe Bulletin, is for it, q pre-
tended Democratic sheet, to advo-
cate nominating a life long Repub-
llcan on the Democratic ticket. In
recommending Geo. W. Wells to
the Democrats for their nominee
on the Democratic ticket for a

citizen and straight forward bust.
ness man, but this is no reason why
the Democrats should nominate
him, and especially so long as our
own party contains men whose
qualifications entities them to con
slderation. Then again we do not
believe Mr.. Wells would accept the
nomination on the Democratic tic
ket and even if he would the Dem
ocrats have no right to nominate
him.
If the Democratic party has any
honors to bestow let it give them
to Democrats. We shall fight for
this principle right straight
through. Either be a Democrat or
Republican, not mougrel. Our
own party contains hundreds OF
honest trustworthy men, capable OF
filling any position in the gift OF
the people, who are entitled to
these honors and whom the Demo
