Marietta As II Host.

In keeping with the general line Of
progress which characterizes our pro-
gressive city, most appropriate sug-
gestion has been made to the effect
that Marietta ought to have standing
committee of some kind to look after
the matter of securing conventions and
other gatherings of a similar character
for this place.
1t occurs to us that our city is espec-
tally we'll equipped to take care OF
meetings, and by the exertion of good
strong efforts, properly set forth, we
believe that in this way thousands of
visitors will be brought within our
gates each year. This is place of his
toric interest, is easily accessible both
by rail and river, and the inducements
we have to offer to visitors are good
and strong. Our hotel accommodation
are frst-class, our city is p-to-date in
every particular-what more could any
one want?
Let some move be made in this mat
ter. Surely it would prove of great
benefit to Marietta.

One of the leading physicians of Ma
rietta on Thursday evening comment
ed upon the healthful condition of our
| city. He stated that as little sickness
has visited us this year as most any
year in our history, and that for this
particular season the percentage of i'll
ness, comparatively speaking, is very
small.
This statement, coming from one in
so good a position to know the true
status CT affairs, speaks we'll for those
who are charged with the duty of look
ing to the welfare of the people, and is
evidence of the splendid work that has
been done by Marietta's Board of
Health. Through the earnest efforts
OF this official body a number of i'm
provements have been made in our
sewage system, thus bettering the
city's sanitary condition.
AS compared with other cities on the
question of health, Marietta stands
well to the front, and with the addi-
tional Improvements that are being
made, together with others contemplate
ed, there is every reason to believe
that in the near future it will move up
TO or at least very nearly the head of
The list.

Hon. John j. Holt, Democratic can
didate for Governor of West Virginia,
will open the campaign in that state
at Parkersburg Friday evening, August
10. The Democrats in West Virginia
are attempting to arouse some enthus-

lent reasons. they will fail to scare up
enough enthusiasm, votes or anything
else to defeat Hon. A. B. White. West
Virginia will remain true to Republi-
canism this year.

Hinsdale, the we'll known educator, ,and

is one of the most popular institute
lecturers in the state. 1t is also ex-
pected that L. d. Bonebrake State
Commissioner of Common Schools, will
be present.
The course this year is exceptionally
strong and every teacher should take
advantage of the opportunities Of

Balance of Trade.

Our esteemed contemporary, the
Times, assumes to argue that the man
who buys more than he sells is better
off than his neighbor who does just
the opposite. If such proposition is
reasonable, why should any man want
to sell at all, and why should he not
want to be buying all the time? 1t
seems to be pretty generally agreed
that just now the United States, with
more than five hundred million of
trade balance in its favor, is doing
fairly we'll, and that the people under
this state of affairs are much better
satisfied than they were when condi-
tions were the reverse Then our
workmen were idle, discomfort was felt
everywhere, and the stacks which now
emit volumes of smoke from fires of
industry were inhabited by owls and
bats. Now how different. Prosperity
and happiness have taken the place of
wreck and ruin-rust and cobwebs
have been supplanted by the busy hum
Of wheel and spindle. BY this change,
the products of our workmen have
found sale in foreign lands-our manu-
facturers have been able to operate
heir mills, giving employment to Am
erican labor at satisfactory wages. We
ire still firmly of the opinion that I'm
lie Sam is far better off by having the
balance of trade SO largely in his favor
han he would be by having it even
me cent against him. 1t occurs to us
hat it is much better for all people
When the exports of the United States
xceed the imports, than it is when
he conditions are vice versa.

The gentlemen who are running for
President this year need not be fearful,
but it is fact that all the Presidents
who have died in Office or who have
been assassinated, except one, were
elected in years ending with 80"
Harrison was elected in 1910, Lincoln
in 1860, though he was not assassinat-
ed until after his second election, and
Garfield in 1880. 1t will be noted, too,
that 40, so and 80 are at intervals of
twenty years and that 1900 Cnly COM
pletes another twenty-year cycle. The
exception noted was Taylor, who was
elected in 1S4S and iraugurated in 1S49,
and died before any great length of
service
However, there will be no withdraw
ais this year on account of the singular
coincidence noted aoove. If there is
rule. an exception must be established
some time or other, and we have hopes.
and, in fact, are confident, that Presi-
dent Mckinley will be elected in 1900
and that his fine condition will carry
him through the perils and dangers of
the office-Tribune

worlds Most Remarkable Whirlpss,.

The Maelstrom, which means literal
ly, grinding stream is situated on
the Norwegian coast, southwest of the
Loffoden Isles, and is the most re-
markable whirlpool in the world. 1t
runs between the island of Moskenes
and large solitary rock in the middle
of the straits. The strong currents
rushing between the Great West
Fjord and the outer ocean through the
channels of the Loffoden Isles produce
number of whirlpools, of which the
maelstrom is by far the most danger
Gus. During severe storms from the
west, for instance, the current runs
continually to the east at the rate of six
knots an hour, without changing it's
direction for rising or falling tide;
and the stream will boil and eddy in
such mighty whirls that the largest
steamer could hardly contend success
fully with the waters. The depth of
the whirlpool is only twenty fathoms,
but just outside the straits soundings
reach from 100 to 200 fathoms The
great danger to vessels is of course not
OF suction into the heart of the whirl-
pool, as legends have supposed. but of
being dashed to pieces against the
rocks.
