Repuhlic or MONARCHY.

The mind of the average reader can
hardly conceive anything more self
contradictory than an absolute mOnar-
chy within a republic; yet such a state
Of affairs is net 50 anomalous as at first
glance appears, judging from the re-
cent action of the Southern Pacific Rail-
road Company. which has issued a cir
cuIar addressed to all employees of the
road. forbidding them to engage in oil
or other ventures This order was
called forth by the fact that one Of the
experts employed by tho company was
recently sent to Texas to look after
some matters in connection with the
Oil-felds. Being a level-headed chap,
he not only performed his duty toward
the company, but also made little in
vestment for himself, and acquired oil
lands which have since netted him the
handsome profit Of 100000.
Matters have indeed come to a pretty
pass when corporation shall dictate
10 its employees what they shall do with
their earnings. We are already cursed
with trusts and monopolies. They are
the first step towards imperialism, not
fancied, but real; and this latest order
OF railway corporation is but tl-r sec
ond step In the same direction. Where
are we TO stop? Whittier viii the next
step lead US? These are questions wor-
thy the earnest consideration OF all
thoughtful men. That an employer shall
dictate what wages be shall pay his
employees is a matter of business: but
when be dictates how his employees
shall spend the wages earned, be leaves
the field of legitimate business and as
sumes the role OF despot. 1t is 10
wonder that the industrial world is
threatened by upheayal when such
practices as the one quoted are permit
ted.-Buffalo Times

of Course, Not.

OF course, there will be no extra SEES
sion. True, the Supreme Court has
lust given clear demonstration that
when opportunity offers it will make
Mckinley take his hands off the Philip
pines and relinquish to Congress the
powers he has usurped. True, the
court will force the government to re-
pay any duties Illegally collected. But
what of it. The duties so repaid will
be only an extra lot of plumber to pets
Of protection. 1t is the same old story.
The importers pay the tax and charge
it to their customers, making profit both
on the goods and on the tax. Then the
importer forces the treasury to repay
the excessive tax and the consumer
who has paid the tax simply grins, and
in many cases keeps right on voting for
protection. This part Of the problem
need not trouble any one. The folly
brings its own reward to the fools.
But there is another phase of the
question. The attitude of the Presi-
dent and his advisers is nothing more
nor less than outright anarchism. 1t is
a clear defiance of the edict of the Su-
preme Court and for a deliberate pur-
pose. Every judge on the bench save
one has joined in an opinion that would
make it clear to any one but William
Mckinley that the government of the
Philippines is a matter for Congress
and not at all for the President. But
Congress will not be calleL together.
Micawber> Mckinley looks forward to
next December and hugs the deIusion
that many things may happen in that
time. Two judges Of the Supreme
Court may die and then with judici0us
selection of their successors the policy
Of Alicawber Mckinley might be sus-
tanned
And it is just as we'll There is ap-
parently need of still more rope for the
men behind Mckinley. That they will
be their own eXecutioners is more than
probable. But the people have given
evidence of such Generalization that all
who would see our institutions pre-
served and the nation once more re-
spected throughout the world must
possess their souls in patience. In the
good time that is coming there will be
excuse for repetition Of that old line
from Virgil.
'"Forsitan, haec dim memminissee
iavabit." Which being translated is,
Even this may pass away" 1t will
take long time for the odor to be lost
But that Is only because the carcass of
Mckinley is thoroughly saturated

The School Book Board of Marion
county, is meeting to- day in Superin-
tendent Martins Office in the court
house says the Times.
Marion county is considered by book
men to be the hardest in the State in
which to get in book, as nothing but
the best will be taken by the board.
One book that is nearly sure TO be
selected is Fast's and Maxwell's his
tory of Civil Government of West
Virginia, which is by far the strong
est thing Of its kind eyer published in
the State.
One of its authors Col r. e. Fast has
the chair OF Political Science at the

thority on Civil Government and Hugh
Maxwell is West Virginia writer of
much prominence and ability.

BRINGING THE CITY TO HIM.
Peculiar Feature in Delegate Shaw's
Extension Bill.

FAIRMoNT, Jan. 30-The strange
case of a man attempting to legislate
himself into Office has come to light
in the bill for the extension Of the
city limits for Fairmont, which is now
before the House Of Delegates at
Charleston. Delegate Shaw of Mari
on county is candidate for the office
of postmaster here, but he lives be-
yond the limits of the city and his
competitors are objecting to his APP
pointment on that ground. AS he
cannot come to the city he is attempt
ing to have the city come to him, and
the bill to extend the limits provides
for such an extension that he is taken
into the city. Ii the bill passes his
opponents for the place will be depriy-
ed Of their principal argument against
him. The bill il it becomes law,
will only add 38 votes to the city, and
Of that number SO are said to be op-
posed to the measure, but as Shaw is
a favorite among those in power it is
probable that the bill to make him a
citizen of Fairmont will be passed.

HAVE THEY?
Claims Made that Anti Ray
mondites rlickered.

Wheeling Register Tells Few Things.
Some Of Them are so and Some are
Surely Fanny Sounding Some of the
Things that They deiKnow aud Some
They Don't Know.
The following has been sent TO the
Register from Charleston. 1t is an
other phase of the University matter
that will be read with interest here:
The university question seems to
have retired from business as an is
sue. The M0rgantown contingent
aroused great deal Of interest here
at the first of the session, and it
seemed they simply couldn't stand il
ii Raymond wasn't thrown out In
stanter, but they seem to have grown
cold in the fight and now have not SO
much to say as formerly. This and
the fact that they flick cred when it
come to a showdown on the question
OF investigating the affairs OF the
school, has dulled the keen edge of
the interest entertained by others and
the matter has about dropped out of
the conversation of members.
The action of these gentlemen has
been peculiar to say the least They
have said enough about Raymond to
damn half dozen men, il proven,
and the question is, are things as
they say, and SO bad they do not want
the people generally to know the
truth, or have they been slandering
Raymond, and fear to have an inves-
tigation lest that fact should be es-
tablished. Whichever horn of the d.
lemma they may choose must prove
Embarrassing. 1t is stated now, by
those in position to know, and with
out any reservation whatever, that
when Mr.. Sturgiss left here the other
day for Morgantown, he gave his as
sufance that be would at once secure
Raymond's resignation and his guar
antee that it should be accepted with
in sixty days.
Meantime the plan to reorganize
the boards at all the State institu-
tions is going on, and the chances are
that there will be more than one
change in management before the year
rolls away. AS stated before, Cover
nor-elect White has no reason to love
Sturgiss, and that gentleman's name
will not be on the roll of regents sent
to the Senate for confirmation.
With Raymond gone and Sturgiss
out, the university will stand a sho W
to become good school, though the
fact that White has determined to
work all the boards in the interest of
his candidacy for the United States
Senate makes it doubtful if he looks
as much after the real interest OF any
of them as he should. However he
can hardly do worse in the case of the
university.

morrow the preliminary examination
of James Criss, charged with at
tempted assault. Saturday night on
Edna Grapes, the Ia year-old daugh
ter of Mrs. Lee Grapes. While going
home from dry goods store where
she is employed she was followed by
Criss, who seized her in dark
place. The girl screamed and a
passerby captured Crisis. He was to
have had hearing this evening,
but threats and the presence of
many excited people caused the Of
ficers to decide to keep Crisis in the
county Jail and put on an extra
guard tonight. There is great ex-
element throughout the town and
lynching may be the outcome.

REPUBLICANS CONTENT
With the Redistrtcting Bill That Was
Agreed in the House.

CHARLESTON, w. Va. Jan. 30
The Republicans are not all satisfied
with the redlstricting bill the way
it was agreed upon in caucus and
presented in both houses, and SO an
other caucus was held for the pnr-
pose of smoothing over the difficulty.
The chief kicker seems TO be Harm
er, who does not like the compost
ton OF the first district, and he is
supported by others who do not want
Upshuri in the second and still Others
who do not like Mason's position in
the fifth.
The caucus was not fully attend
ed and nothing definite was done.
Another subject discussed was the
re- organization scheme of the COVER
nsr-elect which has been embodied
in number of bills and only lacks
the sanction OF the caucus to be pre-
sented to the House.
The feeling against Raymond is
still intense among a good many Re
pnblicans, and there are those in
one house or the other who state
positively that they will not vote for
any appropriation for the Universe
ty until they know that he has left
the school. jackson, Talbot and
Brannon are House members OF the

DOZENS OF COLLISIONS.
Sled Riders Pile in Heaps on

George Winger, Ciarenee Blair, and
Miss Stewart We're Hurt Somewhat
Some Laughab.e Experiences To-
gether with Some Narrow Escapes
Among the Young People.

Several hundred people were sled
riding on Peasants street Hill on
Tuesday night and the rush at
times was so great that many slight
accidents occurred The sleds went
on the bridge at high rate OF
speed They divided and part went
on either side of the sidewalk in the
center. Riders returning were
caught by the rush and several col.
lisions took place.
As result Clarence Blair
George Winger and Miss Maud
Stewart were slightly hurt. Others
whose names could not be learned
were also caught and injured slight
".
Winger had his leg badly twisted
and sprained. 1t was reported that
the leg was broken but this is not
the case. He will be out in few
days.
Clarence Blair had his head
bruised and the breath was Knocked
out of him in another collision. 1t
was said that he had been injured
internally but this is without foun
dation.
Miss Stewart with her escort
struck small boy who went mp in
the air clear over the young man in
front Of the sled and lit on his head
on the young lady in the rear. She
was bruised somewhat but not badly
hurt. The small boy escaped ex-
cept for bad scare.
Dozens Of other collisions took
place aud the air was full of sleds
and sledders at several stages OF the
game but none of them strange to
say were hurt seriously.
