COMBINE.

AS evening settles down along the land,
And lamps blink and the wind is lulled asleep,
Then through the spirit moves a know ledge
deep
The day denies us; then living hand
Nestles frcm nature into ours ms sand
Slides in the glass; we dream, and half we leap
The barriers that the dumb recorders keep;
A ray streams through, and half we under
stand.
For twilight is the spirits dwelling place,
Where mystery melts the slow dissolving world
And ghosts Of order step from accident.
Faith that still hoyers where the dew is pearled
Steals forth and beckons, and from Danish
ment
Our dearer selves we summon face 10 face.

NEW sOHEDULE
WIN Contain Important Changes
~, OIhin IRiVnI. IEnilrnnd

VIII Contain important Changes
on Ohio River Railroad.
A number of important changes
may be made in the winter time
card ON the o. r. r. The through
train service from Kenova to Pitts
burg and return, which was estab-
lished at the last change of time,
has proven SO eminently satisfac-
tory that it will be continued with
a number of added improvements.
Among the probabilities is a
through sleeper from Parkersburg
to New York via Pittsburg, and
which, if it is instituted, will Sc
cure for the o. r. r., a great in
crease in the through eastern bus
mess. 1t will be put on the train
leaving this city in the afternoon
and will arrive in New York early
the next morning.
Beside this great improvement,
through service will be established
to Cincinnati via Kenova. This
will prove big drawing card and
wilLgreatly increase the Parkers-
burg Cincinnati businesses. This
route will be the shortest and cheap
est and delightful daylight ride
along the Ohio river. General
Superintendent Hamilton has his
eyes open for the o. r. r. patrons

cision dismissing the writ of habeas
corpus in the case of former Capt.
Oberlin M. Carter, who is under
sentence of five years. imprison-
ment for conspiracy to defraud the
Government in contracts. The de-
cision was given in lengthy opin-
ion which upholds the findings of
the courtmartial."

He had several errors all of which,
however, were very difficult chances.
Williams led the local team in
batting, securing two base hits out
of four times at bat, also walking
once.
Gilligan and Allamang were also
in the game with their sticks, each
securing two base hit and a
single.
Hahn did not seem to exert him
self much, but pitched himself out
of some very tough places
The playing of tho Reds was
fairly good, but far from the cham
pionshir stride.
The features of the game were
a running catch by MoAlister in
the 4th inning, fly ball from Mo.
Pieces bat, double by Williams
and Myers, also Dornick and
Myers and double by Irwin, Mo

i. ID. sniITH, ESQ,
OF Parkersburg, n Candidate
for state Auditor Would
Make n Good One.

Mr.. u. e. Smith, the popular
and we'll liked proprietor of the
Blennerhaeset Hotel, at Parkers-
burg, is being extensively doomed
by his friends for the Democratic
nomination for State Auditor. Our
exchanges speak highly of Mr..
Smith in connection with this po-
sition. He is we'll known all over
the State, and his many warm per-
sonal friends will make determin-
ed fight for his nomination. Be
ing popular young man he would
make strong candidate. AT pres
ent the Register is not committed
to anyone for Auditor, but at the
same time it has a good opinion of
Mr.. L. e. Smith.
MIR. Bryan and the Philippine
Question.
The old enemies of Mr.. Bryan
are having their hands full these
days. Their object is to put him
in false light and it is uphill
work. Just now they are busily
at work in the effort to mark him
as endeavoring to embarrass the
Government in it's foreign policy.
Now, although these people Glove
darkness rather than light" the
truth is what ordinary people pre-
fer and the truth is simply this:
Mr.. Bryan, as abundantly appears
by his recent speeches in the West
is not in favor of withdrawing our
forces from the Philippines, for the
simple and sufficient reason that
the United States is at present re-
sponsible to the world for keeping
order in the Philippines. We
have gone too far to withdraw now.
But Mr.. Bryan also says that he
would Eat once declare our purpose
in unequivocal terms so positive
that the Filipinos cannot doubt it,
to grant them full and complete in
dependence the very moment they
have established stable govern
ment." Mr.. Bryan further declares
his belief that if we should make
suoh an announcement right now
the war would cease in very short
time. This is Mr.. Bryan's posi-
ton as shown by his recent
speeches and no lover of truth will
Justify the classifying of that po-
sition.

ed, cutting off the Canadians in ao-
cordance with the treaty of cession
between the United States and
Russia, without an ocean port on
Lynn Canal. 1t is also understood
that the United States government
firmly refuses to submit this
boundary question to foreign ar
bitration, on the ground that the
contentious of this government are

there can be no room for arbitra-

He would be credit to his county
