Both the inner districts and the outskirts of
Brooklyn are building up with amazing rapidity,
and in the percentage of increase in population
our big sister Long Island is making inn
pressive gains upon Manhattan. But the bor-
ough between the East and the North rivers will
never be jealous of the growth of the queenly
community in the county of Kings to which we
are so closely allied. The swifter the progress.
the more notable the development and expansion
of Brooklyn the more Manhattan is pleased.
Advance for one is advance for both.

The oarsmens cup at Henley seems to be al
most firmly anchored in British waters as
the yachting cup, the emblem of International
rivalry with sails, appears to be anchored on
this side of the ocean. But American rowers
will not give up trying to win that trophy on
the Thames, and American crews will strive
again and again until they succeed. Our Brit
ish friends have fought nobly to excel us in
yachting. They have failed in more contests on
than America has failed in the river battles.
Well get that Henley cup ere many years go by.

ASSOCIATION.
Special to the Register.

Special to the Register.
PARKERSBURG, w. Va, February
4.-The State Bar Association met
here LA.s afternoon with about a hun
dred members of the Bar from all
over the State in attendance. Presi-
dent L. j. Williams, Of Lewisburg,
was not present and C. D. Merrick,
of Parkersburg, was called upon to
preside. The annual address OF the
president was read and some routine
business was attended to, after which
Justice Henry B. Brown, Of the United
States Supreme Court delivered his
address before the Association on
John Marshall, exercises in whose
memory are being held all over the
country by the bar associations.
Justice brown spoke for about an
hour and dealt not only with tue life,
character and career of Marshall, but
of the history of the constitution and
of the nation from the time of Mar
shall down. He said that Marshall
was not only the ~expounder of the
Constitution but in effect the creator
Of constitutional law. He said the
Supreme Court had pracLlcally almost
no existence prior to his accession to
the bench and that he was the first to
declare the right of the Court to pass
upon the work of Congress and to de-
clare whether a law is constitutional
or not. He. in fact, almost created
the Supreme Court by making it what
it is.
Justice Brown spoke in the course
of his remarks of the growth of the
trusts and the different industrial sit
uation to-day from what had existed
in the past. He said there must come
an adjustment of conditions of to-day
and that it might be accomplished
even with ~bloodshed, but that the old
order of things could not be restored;
tnat the new condition of trade and
labor are as different from the old as
the manufacturing concern is from
the old spinning wheel and the loom
and the department store from the old
snop keeper. The new order of things,
he said, we must learn to accept and
adjust ourselves to it. He spoke of
the great power of this government as
shown in the last two years and the
lasting qualities of the Constitution, it
being the Oldest Constitution in the
world to-day.
Tonight C. c. Higginbotham, of
Buckhannon, delivered an address on
tie topic Should West Virginia have
a new Constitution" It opened up a
discussion which was very interesting.
