Hon. j II. Manley's frank and Wig
orous statement If the responsibilities
brought to the Republican party Of

preme JUDGES, and in connection there
with the vote for the various candi-
dates for Congress in the several dis
tricts. The figures are from the offic-
ial returns received at Charleston, and
are believed to be absolutely correct.
1t will be noted that the Democratic
strength was practically 100, 900, run
ming a little short in some cases and
a little over in others, while the Re-
publican vote averages 10000, varying
from 118, 59S cast for White for Gov
ernor. the lowest, to 1882 for Nc
Kinley, the highest. Two Democratic
candidates, Messrs. English and Ben
nett, for Supreme Judge, received more
than 100, 900 votes, and one, Hurst, for
Treasurer, lacked but n vote of get
ting into the six figure column.
The Republican ticket generally ran
1900 votes behind Mckinley.
The total vote of the State was 220,-
500 for President, and 219,647 for Gov
ernor. The Prohibition vote was 1887,
the Social Labor (Debs) vote 286, and
the Peoples Party vote 269, the total
scattering vote thus being 1892.
The Congressional vote will be an
interesting subject for future refer
ence. and should be preserved.

THE UNIVERSITY TROUBLE.

The press of the State, without re-
gard to politics, deplores and condemns
me recent action Of the Board OF he
gents OF the State University in sum
marily deposing from office, apparently
at the bidding OF President Raymond,
Professors Armstrong and Hartlgan.
They were relieved OF their duties
without specific charges, without a
hearing and without a trial. They were
simply told to get out. There was no
intimation that they were rot compe-
tent, capable, or that they did not dis
charge, in a satisfactory manner, the
duties devolving upon them. The In
ference is that they were persona non
sratia to the head OF the institution.
The University OF Wet Virginia
should be run and managed upon dif-
ferent lines. 1t is an institution OF
learning, with a reputation fair in the
past, and should be far removed from
either political influence or personal
bias. 1t formerly was upon a high
plane. 1t should be elevated to that
pedestal again, and not be permitted
to be a mere vehicle for either political
reward or personal ambition. The sub
ject is one calling for the earnest pro-
test OF the people OF WEI Virginia as
to what has recently occurred, and foc
equally earnest endeavor to bring
about a better state OF affairs. 1t
should be the ambition and hope Of
every West Virginian to elevate our
chiefest institution of learning, in
which we all would, if permitted, take
a warranted pride, from the mire into
which it has fallen through inconsid-
crate and selfish management, and
make Of 1T that which it ought to be
the pride of the people of the State.

The United States has made enor-

Advices from London say that the

TO carry out its promise of putting a
large portion Of the burden of the ex-
pense of the Boer war on thu South
African gold mines. The reason given
is that in the face of a solid Dutch
sentiment against the government it
would be unwise to weaken the Brit
ish party, which is so largely sustained
by the mining syndicates. Syndicate
