A man named Logan was elected 10
the Legislature of West Virginia.
The result was contested, the
Supreme Count of the State deciding
in Logan's favor.
This so incensed the Acknowledgement
that he let go this incendiary intima-
ton of what he would do:
If were Governor | would not permit
Logan to take a seat in the Legislature even
if it should become necessary to use military
force to prevent him from entering the capitol.

body would have noticed it, but as it

that enactments obeyed are enact

out in the West Virginia case nobody
can tell just where it stands in the
matter of seating democrat who has

The puzzle is-both court and attor-
ney-general want to "enforce the law"
but what law?

Children who, through misfortune
or neglect of their natural guardians,
are deprived OF the happiness of home

There can be no nobler charitable

Prospectus.

The American Federation of Labor,
convened in Kansas City, Monday,
and tackled some heavy questions.
One is proposed ungallant demand
upon Congress for bill prohibiting
the employment of women in the
government service.
Another is a proposal to have Con-
gress provide for the submission of all
Acts to the Supreme Court before they
become laws.
The only trouble about granting
such "demandsn is-where the de
mands' will stop, especially, for in
stance, in the latter instance. Had
the semi-monthly pay Act been so sub
mitted, that Act would not now be sin
force.n
Then the demand" to od0tiM the
court would naturally follow.
Because until professional labor gets
all that professional labor demands, :"
the demand business will be free and
unlimited"

Business Locals,

Two Pointed Q estions Answered -
What is the use OF making a better article
than your competitor if you can get better
price for it?
Ans AS there is no difference in the price
the public will buy only the better, so that
while our profits may be smaller on IA single
sale they will be much greater in the aggre-
gate.
How can you get the public to know your
make is the best?
If both articles are brought prominently
before the public both are certain to be tried
and the public will very quickly pass judg-
ment on them and use only the better one.
This explains the large sale of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. The people have been
using it for years and have found that it can
always be depended upon. They may oc-
casionaIly take up with some fashionable

Save Your Money.

The Cumberland independent gives
nearly two columns of its valuable
space to Jones and Stone, former demo-
Gratis; Altgeld, socialist Allen, popu-
list, and Teller, republican. who use it
to call for contributions to the cause Of
16 to |, money to be sent to Free Coin
age Harvey. of Chicago.
Before joining this magic circle,
however, the JOURNAL would suggest
to each innocent to ask himself serious
ly this question
How will free coinage law or any other
law lower the prices of the goods l have to
buy and raise the prices ofthose have to sell ?
Because if he is to be benefited by
free coinage. he must be enabled there
by to enjoy at least one of those two
blessings.
Let it be remembered that the ques-
ton is one that each 0Oter should ashhim-
self. Meanwhile, he should send no
money until he finds out how it can
be done.
To make sure of this the JOURNAL
will again state the question:
How will a free coinage law or any other
law lower the prices of the goods | have to
buy and raise the prices ofthose | have to sell
Now, as nobody can carry on bust
ness without making a small profit on
large sales or a big profit on small
sales, it is plain that If the man who
will take the pains to ask himself in
all earnestness the question stated, he
must see finally that free coinage, to be
an advantage to him must enable him
to accomplish at least one of the two
alternatives
|, To buy his goods lower than other
buyers can, Or
=, Sell his goods higher than other
sellers can.
Unless it does one of these two
things for him, free coinage will not
improve his commercial status a whit.
Finally, don't send any money to
Harvey until you hno~ that free coin
age is going to make speciality of
promoting your individual fortune.
Later-In the minds eye of Jones ct
id, etc., and yet other prestidigitators,
the question is an easy one, but let
no reader of the JOURNAL send any
goldstandard money to Harvey until
he is for himself-and for himset alone -
let into the modus operandi of all
the legerdemain by which-''presto,
change no matter how the coin hops,
