The one given out by those who is

week would be one of extraordinary
interest and that the regents were
wanted here on that account.
There are other more interesting
reasons being detailed sub rosa.
At any rate the meeting will be
one of interest and the public will
follow the ostcome very eagerly.
The failure OF the pipe organ to be
finished in time will be one Of draw
backs to the perfect enjoyment of
the week. Morgantown will get a
chance later to enjoy it however.
The program that has been ar
ranged is to be very fine. The ad
dresses of President Jordan and DR..
Wiley will be largely attended and
will be found to be very interesting
and instructive. Morgantown will
show that she appreciates their Wis
its here.
Other social events will add to
the delights Of the week. The pro

WEST Virginia presents more OPP
portunities to make money than does
any other state in the Union. 1t
does not make any difference what
kind Of business one engages in the
opportunity is right here in West Vir-
ginia, and new corners will be given
the glad hand of welcome, and such
assistance as they can show that they
deserve. Men who are seeking to get
something for nothing are not wanted
in West Virginia. What is wanted
are hustling up-to-date men, who
have money enough to do their own
starting, and the rest will come as
soon as the people see that they are
in earnest to become factor In the
npbuilding ofour Big Mountain State.

HONORABLE ACQUlTTAL
OF Mrs. DarneIl, NEE Fleming, or The
Harsh Charges Made Against Her.

GOSHEN, Ind, March, 31.-After
the coroner's verdict in the case Of
the late John G. Darnell, which ex-
onorated his wife Of the cruel charges
that had been made against her by
the family Of her husband, the re-
vulsion Of feeling among the people
of this city was very pronounced.
Mrs. Darnell, who was formerly Miss
Fleming, of Fairmont, W. Va, has
been severely tortured in mind on
account of the unenviable publicity
she has been subjected to. but now
that the ordeal is over, she is graft
fed that matters took the official in
quisitorial turn they did, instead OF
possibly remaining under suspicion
through the innuendoes of the OAR
nell family.
The whole affair was most unfortu-
nate, and from the testimony adduc-
edsat the coroner's inquest 1t seems
there was positively no ground for sus-
pectlng Mrs. Darnell Of poisoning her
husband, except what dwelt In the
partial minds Of the parents Of Mr.
Darnell. Even the threads upon
which they rested their accusations
were wholly intangible. The conten-
tion Of the family of the deceased that
Mrs. Darnell administered poison to
her husband in his medicine was COM
pletely rcfuted when it was shown at
the inquest that she did NOT see her
husband for three weeks before he
died. 1t was the cupidity of the par
ents of Mr.. Darnell to benefit them
selves through a $40, 900 policy on his
life that led to the distressing accusa-
tions against Mrs. Darnell, which hap
PLY, she is now cleared Of.

CHOICE.

Hobson once he idol of his country
men, the hero of the Spanish war in Gu
ban waters, whose act in sinking the
Merrimac should live in song and story,
has already dimmed the luster of his
name by attacking the record and repu-
tation Of mis- superior. no less a parsonage
tina Dewey, admira of the American
navy. Hobson's story appears in the Inter
Mountains dispatches today. 1t reflects
discredit only On Hobson. 1t is con-
tradicted by all the facts and circum-
stances and witnesses of. the battle of
Manila bay. But most important of al
in the way of REPUTATION is the fact that
the Spanish officers themselves and the
Spanish government never alleged such
facts as Hobson now sets forth. It is
hoped that Dewey will pay no attention
to the yarn.

THAT LABOR PLANK.

The democratic platform, drawn up by
a committee of which Mr.. F. E. Corbett
of Silver Bow was chairman. contains
the following:
That We. the democrats Of the state
of Montana. in convention m
having in mind the constant devotion
of our party to the interests of the labor
ing classes of our people n of the citi-
zens of the United States in general.
hereby declare that we are in favor or
the principle that eight hours work shall
constitute a days labor for all UNDER
ground laborers in the state Of Mon
tana, and that we pledge our party and
it's representatives to further and to for
ward by all lawful means the passing of
a law by the legislative assembly of the
state of Montana carrying such principle
into effect: that such law shall provide
that the shortening of the hours of work
shall in no sense affect the remuneration
to be received.
An amendment was also added p;edg-
ing the party to secure ten hours pay
for eight hours work to mill men and
smelter men, as we'll as to underground
miners.

GREATER THAN ROYALTY.

When Robert T. Stewart was governor
of Missouri, it was in the days when ey-

or was no exception to the rule. Years
e when the prince of Wales was on a
visit to this country they gave a grand
ball in his honor in st. Louis. GOV. Stew
art came down from Jefferson City to
honor the event with his presence. In
the course of the evening the enthusiast
tic governor drank rather too much. He
became exceedingly happy as we'll as
proud and enthusiastic, He and the

the beauty and aristocracy of st. Louis
swept past them in gorgeous review.
Stewards feelings and bosom swelled.
Eventually, in a mighty Impulse of glow
and glory. he administered a tremendous
slap Upon the princes back, exclaiming
with intense animation:

THURSDAY, SEPT. 20. 1900.
FOUR YEARS AGO AND NOW.

The republican party of Montana four
years ago was in much the same condl-
ton as the democratic party is now. 1t
divided in convention, held two owen
tions and nominated two tickets. One
ticket represented the men who favored
fusion in the interest of silver.
The scene is completely reversed. The
democratic cave divided in convention,
they will probably hold two conventions
and nominate two tickets. One of those
tickets will represent the wing favor
able to fusion and may be made up of
the ~fusionists from two other parties.
There the similarity ends. The great
and notable point of difference between
the republicans four years g and the
democrats now is that while the former
divided honestly on principle and with
expressions of mutual regret that on
the issue of silver honest men could not
agree-while the former, we repeat, di-
vided on principle, the democrats now
divide on a question of spoils alone,
and go their separate ways, shaking
their fists at one another and uttering
dire threats of vengeance.
1t was a patriotic principle with the
republicans. It is personal rancor and
greed for office with the democrats. The
republicans who separated four years
ago realized tina they were throwing
away their chances of victory. to stand
by an honest conviction. 1t is not sc
with the democrats now. for each wing
claims it can carry the state. and the
organ of each wing is chiefly concerned
for the spoils.
There is a difference between politica
parties after all. Let republicans thanl
God for the difference.
