portunity for politicians to air their
views and to discuss the momentous is
sues of the last year.
This outbreak of Oratory promises to
develop no new or startling facts. The
Conservatives defend the war in South
Africa and of its management, while
the Liberals ignore it, concentrating
their attacks upon the failure Of the
Conservatives to fulfill promises OF
home legislation.
Though this is officially the Liberals
main plank, the division of their ranks
over the war is so great that 1t is quite
impossible to keep all the candidates in
line. Thus, while Sir Edward Grey and
the Ri. Hon. H. H. Asquith and others
are telling the voters that 1t Is USE
less
To Discuss the War.
and are admitting that the annexation of
the Boer republics is the only logical out
come, Mr.. Morley and other we'll known
members of the party are telling them
that the war was unnecessary and that
the annexation of the Republics is a blot
upon Engiand's fair name. On one point,
however, the Liberals unite; and that
point is IN the unfairness OF Lord Sails
bury in bringing about a dissolution at
the present moment when the register of
1888 is expiring, SO that thus ali who were
not registered over two years ago are
disfranchised. The new Register comes
into force in February Thousands are
affected; and the Liberals maintain that
Lord Salisbury S action IS not only with
out precedent but is unconstitutional. On
~
that Lord Salisbury acted fairly, as, had
he waited until after February. he would
have the undoubted advantage of the
votes of soldiers returning from South
Africa. In their wrath that the election
was precipitated with so little warning
the Liberals are not alone. Business men,
regardless of party, are furious over the
d!sintegration of trade which always ae-
companies election contests. Publishers,
for instance, after a wretched year, see
ing the war in South Africa ending and al
fairs in China becoming more quiescent,
made all preparations
For IL Revlval of Trade.
Just as they were beginning to put new
books out the announcement of the disso-
luticn of Parliament came like a thunder
clap, spelling all their prospects. The
Stock Exchange, on the same grounds has
got grievance against Lord Salisbury.
The question of home rule, except in Ire
land, is scarcely mentioned. Mr. Herbert
Gladstone, who represents West Leeds,
advises his constituents to let the matter
rest; but the Earl OF Sandwich strikes a
much franker note, in renouncing his ad-
herence to the government and returning
to the ranks of the Liberals, because
home rule is dead

Work is progressing rapidly on the
new plant being erected by the Ma
tional Tube Company in Upper Ben
wood. The finishing touches are now
being made on the big arch over Boggs
Run, which was started over a year ago
and has continually given work to
hundreds of bricklayers and laborers
A large force of hands is also engaged
in moving the houses from the ground
in Upper Benwood which has been
purchased by the company for their
proposed extensive improvements to
the Riverside mill.
1t Is said that the Wheeling Iron
and Steel Company may have work
commenced any day upon a large new
tube plant near its present location in
BenWooG
The La Belle tin plant is still mop
eratiye.
AT the Lower Benwood iron works
the employees OF the plate department
returned to work Thursday morning
after being idle for a few days. 1t is
likely that the steel department, which
has been of for repairs for over week,
will resume operations tomorrow
morning.
The Baltimore & Ohio Railway Com
pany will soon place orders for several
thousand freight cars. Some say the
order will be for 1900 cars and others
say as many as 5000 will be purchased
Il has not been as yet definitely de-
cided how many will be ordered, but
the order will be a large one The box
cars will be the largest of that class of
cars and will have a capacity OF from
10000 to $4,000 pounds each. The coal
cars will be of steel with a capacity OF
from 10000 to 100000 pounds.
The gross earnings OF the Chesa-
peake & Ohio for the second week of
September, show an increase of SIS, 700.
The usual force of men is on duty at
the La Belle iron works. One of the
heating furnaces fell in Wednesday,
and the necessary repairs, which were
commenced at once. were finished FRI
day night
At the Belmont mill the big plate
department is running double turn and
the little department single turn. A
large force of men is still engaged in
putting up the iron work for the blast
furnace. Fifteen men are at work on
the foundation for the new plate mill
Satisfactory Roadway is being made in
the brickwork around the sterling
boilers.
Nearly all the furnaces are operating
at the Riverside tube works The
blast furnace is on as usual, but the
steel plant is still idle. The situation
in the plate department, which has
been off for weeks, is practically I'M
changed. However. there are hopes
that the wage difficulty between the
management and employees will soon be
satisfactorily adjusted

EFFORTS FOR CHILDREN.
Her Plan for Starting the Little Ones

Special to the Register.
ELKINS, w. Va, September 22.-Wives
of most great men do not find enough time
aside from their society engagements to
look after the interests of the boys and
girls of their towns.
Mrs EIkins, wife of Senator S. B. Ell
kins. is, however. not of this class, but de-
votes the major portion of her summers
at her magnificent home, Halliehurst, to
developing the talents of the boys and
girls of Ellzins.
A sewing circle is conducted for the
girls, lessons being given by Mrs. Elkins,
at her home every Saturday afternoon.
The BOYS are enco uraged to beautify their
yards and make useful articles. To en-
courage this an annual contest is held, in
which exhibits of every description from
the smallest piece of needlework to minla-
ture houses, are made, and prizes given
according to the merits of the work.
This annual exhibition has just been
held, and many beautiful prizes, including
suits of clothes and other valuable arti-
cles, were distributed.
There is not a woman in the United
States loved by a larger circle of children
than Mrs Elkins Her homecoming in
the spring is hailed with joy, and her de-
parture for her Washington home in the
fall is always regretted by the people of
Elkins.

THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.
Also Few Facts ON the Same
subject.

subject.
We hear much nowadas about
health foods and hygienic living.
about yegetarianism and many otn-
er fads along the same line.
Restaurants may be found in the
larger cities where no meat, pastry
or coffee is served and the food
crank is in his glory, and argu-
ments and theories galore advanced
to prove that meat was never in
tended for human stomachs, and al
most make us believe that our
sturdy ancestors who lived four
score years in robust health on
roast beef, pork and mutton must
have been grossly ignorant OF the
laws of health.
Our forefathers had other things
to do than formulate theories about
the food they ate. A warm well
come was extended to any kind
from bacon to acorns.
A healthy appetite and common
sense are excellent guides to follow
in matters OF diet, and a mixed
diet OF grains, fruit and meats is
undoubtedly the best.
AS compartd with grains and
vegetables, meat furnishes the most
nutriment in highly concentrated
form and is digesred and is assim-
Hated more quickly than vege-
tables and grains.
DR.. Julius RemmsOn on this sub
ject, says: Nervous persons, peo-
pie run down in health and of low
vitality should eat meat and plenty
OF it. If the digestion is too feeble
at first it may be easily corrected
by the regular use of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets after each meal. Two
OF these excellent tablets taken
after dinner will digest several
thousand grains of meat, eggs or
other animal food in three hours,
and no matter how weak the
stomach may be, no trouble Will
be experienced if a regular practice
is made of using Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets because they supply the
pepsin and diastase necessary to
perfect digestion, and every form OF
indigestion will be overcome by
their use.
That large class of people who
come under the head of nervous
dyspeptics should eat plenty OF
meat and insure its proper diges-
ton by the daily use of a safe,
harmless digestive medicine like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets COM
posed of the natural digestive prin-
ciples, pepsin. diastase, fruit acids
and salts, which actually perform
the work OF digestion. Cheap cath
artic medicines, masquerading I'M
der the name of dyspepsia cures
are useless for indigestion, as they
have absolutely no effect upon the
actual digestion of food.
Dyspepsia in all its many forms
is simply failure Of the stomach TO
digest food, and the sensible way to
solve the riddle and cure the dys-
pepsia is to make daily use at meal
time of a preparation like Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets which is endorsed
by the medical profession and
known to contain active digestive
principles.
All druggists sell Stuart's Dye
pepsia Tablets at SOC. for full treat
ment.
