The San Diego Sun says: Rumors are current again that a conference of $. P. owners is to be held in New York right away, and some import ant moves are about to be made.
 Whether these rumors are, or are not, true in all details and specified tions, the fact is visible that they should be generally true, for the evoluntion Tn the business affairs of this country must naturally com- pei the s. P. people to make some importantcharges.a .andthosechanges must particularly affect Southern California and San Diego.
 The certainty of the construction of the Nicaragua canal, the in- creased trade on the Pacific, and the aggressive opposition of com- petitive transcontinental lines, all combine to force the Southern Pa cific into a new position, which will enable it to more successfully hold the great territory it has cov- cred, but which it cannot continue to central unless it makes changes.
 The Southern Pacific is more vitally affected than other trans continental lines, because of it's pe- culiar status on the map. It is the southernmost transcontinental line, and yet it does not occupy all the advantages of the southernmost line.
 From Yuma eastward it is by far the shortest line to the waters leading to the Atlantic-at Gal weston. But from Yuma westward 1t makes 6 circuit through hun dreds of miles of desert, when it might continue direct to this port, and thus reach the waters of the Pacific This is one change the s. P. must make Tn order to retain control of it's past transcontinental

of which 90 much has been said In all parts of the country, and which is so widely indorsed, is intended to do for the United States what is necessary to encourage private capital to embark in shlpowing for the foreign trade-that great prac- tical nursery for seamen. If Con- gross will but assent to the estab- lishment of that bill upon the nations statutes, then, we believe. future naval historians will be able to record that, at the close of the nineteenth century, the United States re-established itself upon the sea as a power equally as strong and infinitely more potential than it was at the close of the eighteenth century, when the marvellous growth and wcalth-begetting ability of our merchant marine gave us stand ing among the great nations as much above our actual national rank as our present lack of marine deprives us of eur just rank among the other nations of the earth.

You never see any mention in- wedding notices about the ability of the bride to cook or make bread, or to make her own dresses. It Is always something about her beauty and the wedding march and the presents, and the rich repast, etc. Many a man has been started on the road to thunder and lightning by finding that back of painted and patched up face, to look pretty, there was little or no sense, and no ability to keep the home in shape. The girls are not to blame so much as their parents for not learning domestic duties.

BURGLARs. BIG HAUL.


A PostofIice Robbed of Every
Express Office and
Store Looted.
Special to the Register.
HUNTINGTON, w VA, March 90
AT Lesage, small village ten
miles above here, on the Ohio Riv-
er Railroad, burglars made big
haul last night, The postoAice was
entered and every stamp in the Of
flee, as we'll as several registered
letters, was stolen. The express
office was also entered and all pack
ages of any value were taken. The
general store of Frank Dickey was
robbed of large quantity of goods
and considerable money which had
been left in the money drawer over
night.
The burglars are supposed to
have made their escape in skiff,
as one was stolen from the public
landing.
The skiff was recovered near
Catlettsburg, Ky, at noon to-day,
The supposition is that these
burglars are the same who opera
ted here Friday night and at Guy
andotte Saturday and Sunday
nights. Officials in all towns along
the river have been notified, and
every effort will be made to locate
them.

Shows that the Charges of

The result of the investigation
into the army meat question has
been to show that even with a
board appointed to white wash that
the worst charges of General Miles
were too mild. There is likely to
be another court martial of the
scoundrel Eagan who has already
been rewarded for his villainy by
being given long vacation on full
pay. Some hemp may yet be
stretched by people whose high
positions have as yet protected
them.
Evidence is all in nearly and the
tenor of all the honest testimony
has been the same. The grossest
Encouragement and criminal me-
gleot has been characteristic of the
commissary department. These
things should be punished and
punished severely. In case they
are not the people will see to it
that justice is done when they get
q chance to speak.

West Virginia farmers are given
hint by the agriculturalists of
Illinois, who are pushing bill
through the Legislature of that
State providing for the building of
hard roads, which is similar to the
bill passed by the West Virginia
Legislature at it's recentsession. In
the support of their bill the Illinois
farmers argue that the building of
the hard country roads through
the State will greatly enhance the
value of their farms, as it will en-
able the farmers to get their pro
ducts to market with small cost
The same argument might be used
in favor of building hard roads in
West Virginia. No one doubts
that the construction of a system
of good hard roads throughout Ka-
nawhu county, for instance, would
at least double the value of the
farms in the county. 1t would en-
able the farmers to get to market
with their products at small cost
and successfully compete in our
local markets with the farmers of
Ohio, who ship their products here
and furnish to our people the larg-
or part of all they consume. If our
country roads we're such as to en-
able our farmers to get to market
cheaply West Virginia would soon
be furnishing agricultural products
to the markets outside its borders,
and it would become distinctively
agricultural State, which is the
surest foundation of happiness for
any people. Charleston Gazette.

Let us reason Together.


The Republican party has prac
tically been in power for more than
thirty years, with the exception Of
during CleveIand's administration
and they got control of him, so al
the close of his administration he
stood in greater favor with the Re
publicans than with the Demo
Gratis.
Now, then, which party is to be
blamed for fostering the trustsP-
The Republican party has all
along been denounoing them in
it's conventions and other public
meetings, but at the same time
trusts have been thriving under
Republican rule.
McKinley's administration will
be known in history as the admin.
istration of the trusts,
The next National Convention
is already in trust for him. There
will be great outcry against
trusts when that convention assem-
bles but, in the face of it, the
President will be re-nominated
and if elected the trust combines
will be strengthened more than ev.
er. Everybody knows this, and
none doubt it.
Now, kind reader, just look
this matter square in the face, and
honestly form your opinion as to
which party is the father, and the
foster father, too, of trusts.
Will you continue to support g
party that pats your back while il
is tying your hands and feetP
Better kick loose while you can.
The Democratic party is not al.
together perfect, we admit, but this
party of late years, has been weed
ing out and turning down its OBJ
noxious men-men who have aided
and abetted the creation and fost
ering of trusts and monopolies.
If the well meaning Republi
cans will now join with the pres
ent majority of the Democrats t
combination can be formed thai
will overthrow, at the next .Presi
dental election, the Trust combi
nation.
Honest Republican voters, won't
You stop and Think There is {
work to be done to overthrow this
terrible evil. Won't you help?=
We know ) GU do not favor trusts
and you do not like to cut loose
from old party lines, but how else
will it ever be done2 There is nc
hope by continuing administra
tions like McKinley's.
Begin in time to make up your
mind for 1900.

CHARLES Town, w. VA, March %
Hon. William I'll. Travers, of this
city, prominent member of the
Jefferson county bar, died suddenly
to-day at Radford, Va, whore he
was in attendance upon court as
counsel for the Norfolk & Western
railroad. The cause of his death is
not known. Mr.. Travers was aged
about seventy years, and was born
in Maryland, having practiced law
in Baltimore previous to his remov-
al to Charles Town in the early six
ties, practicing here ever since.
He was delegate to the constitu-
tional convention in 1872.
He was a staunch Democrat, and
served in the house of delegates
while resident of Maryland, being
speaker of that body. His name
has been prominently mentioned in
in connection with the next gov
ernorship of West Virginia, but
his retiring disposition has always
led him to refuse all offers of polit-
ical preferment, devoting himself
entirely to his profession, of which
he was regarded as one of the most
talented in the state.
His remains will be brought to
Charles Town for interment. He
is survived by Mrs. Travers, Miss
Bessie and Mrs. Coo, all of this
city.
