HIS ADDRESS.

Some very nice things said about sir.
Barbe's Address at Huntington by
the Herald Of that city.
Supt. Sterling very gracefully in
PRODUCED Mr.. Barbe, assistant to the
president of the State University by
saying that he is "West Virginian
by birth, student by habit, schol-
ar by reputation and a poet by ma
ture." The audience readily COZ
coded this tribute and awaited the
address with an anticipated interest
that would make a heavy
draught upon any speaker. Mr.
Barbe, however, met the requirement
in detail. His address was worthy
of West Virginian, it was the pro-
duction of a student, it was schol-
arly and it was poetic. Education
as a Beautifier Of Life was his
theme. The greatest gift of educa-
ton is personal richness in charac-
ter, and this thought was developed
with force and eloquence. The
speaker closed in the repeated and
effective employment of his text from
Plato-"Let them that have lamps
pass them on to Others" The adj
dress, fnlly an hour in length, com
manded the closest attention and in
terest of the audience and was one
of the best ever delivered in this
city.

FLOW FOR CENSOR.

There is considerable talk Of G. Ed
Flow for Censor of the State Press.
Next after Superintendent of Poultry.
Mr.. Flow is perhaps best qualified for
the duties of that position. The time
has arrived when censor would be able
to suppress much interesting matter
not always Dalatable to the reignine
house. Mr.. Flows fitness to represent
the crown is self-evident and when his
name has been duly presented he will
doubtless be appointed.

From Richmond County.

Claudus Dockery, chairman of the
board of directors of the penitentiary,

thority. be IA candidate for the lower
house from Richmond county. CIaudius
intends. in case of his election to the
house. to run for speaker of the house
in the Republican caucus. The informa-
ton is quite reliable and the only draw
back to the aspirations of Claudius is
that he has not yet been elected and
the Republicans have not yet gotten the
legislature. With these TWO minor re-

looked upon as the next speaker of the
house, unless something better turns up
meantime.
