Keyser's Bad Luck.

l. nc uCpIcSSloh III thS ouoih~oo "
the railroads has at last been felt
along the local Lines of the Baltimore
and Ohio and some of the orders jus t
promulgated by the officials to reduce
expenses may have their effect
elsewere.
For some time it has been rumored
in railroad circles that things on the
west end OF the local division were not
running to suit the head officers of
the road, and there were often heard
reports that some changes would be
made, either al Grafton, Keyser or
Cumberland.
These changes have been announced
and Keyser is the town that suffers.
The handsome new shops there, as
we'll as the large yards, have been in
definitely closed, and how trains are
now running from Grafton to Cum
berland with but water stop at the
yards in Keyser.
The Pinto tunnel, east of Keyser,
which, when in construction, was the
pride Of all railroad men come cted
with the Baltimore and Ohio, is to be
abandoned. This is another fact which
was preceded by rumor out many
moons ago. The cause of this, it is said
is that water in such large quantities
that it cannot be properly removed
comes into the tunnel from the m oun-
tain, and that the hole might become
exceedingly DANCE rous.
A fortune was sunk in this tunnel
which was built at the cost of many
thousands, and an outlay of years OF
time in order to give heavy freight
trains running east a cutoff, where
many miles could be saved between
Keyser and Hancock, Maryland. 1t
was also originally intended that the
fast passenger trains, both east and
and west should use this tunnel, as
the new route would greatly reduce
the running time between Grafton and
Washington.
The order to abandon the Keyser
shops and the Pinto tunnel was issued
by Division Superintendent F. S.
Blaser aud it went into effect Thurs
day. 1t has already caused III any
trainmen to move their families from
Keyser to Cumberland, and from now
on that town will be practically aban-
doned by the railroad people. The
move is great blow to Keyser, which
had banked heavily upon retaining
the shops, as we'll as being the termi-
nal Of the division between Fairmont
and that place.
From Cumberland comes the report
tlat over 100 men have been laid off
by the company, and that Others are
to follow. These are machiuists from
the shops there, clerks in the offices
and train crews The yard crews from
Keyser have been moved to CumEer-
land and will do the most of the work
there.

There is evidence that the negro
problem will be one OF the leading is
sues in the coming campaign. The
ignorant voter has become such a
power in the hands Of the unscrupu-
leus politician that fair methods in
elections is out of the question. The
expense attached to the wholesale cor
p oration in the recent primaries has
called halt even among the republi-
cans, some of whom urge a radical
move.
The Gazette has Information that in
a ecept republican conference of par
ty leaders, among whom was state
senator, Lily White republican par.
ty was talked of seriously. The sta e
ment was made that if Dowson, for
governor. carried the state that the
following legislature positively pass
at registration law that would prevent
IN great measure, tn e repeating of
negro voters and stop altogether the
transporting of voters from one coun
ty to another to carry certain pre-
cincts. There is iutimations however,
hat the party will not stop simply at
registration but will go farther and
disfranchise entirely the ignorant in
politics. And such talk comes from
the negro's alleged best friends.
Such a move. as anticipated, we be
lieve, has back OF it an attempt to
paciiy the respectable element in the
republican party who have become.
disguised with present methods.
There are negroes in this city, good
citizens who object to being classed
with the ignorant aud criminal of
their race who for a dollar bill will
violate their oath and sell their honor.
And there are white men who will
not, as Nathan Scott sugge sted, hold
their nose and go to the polls.
The question of the hour is will the
respectable white men of West Vir-
ginia declare for a white mans gov
ernment The time has come to act
for West Virginia is fast becoming
the macca for the ignorant, criminal
and disfranchised negroes from other
states.

premacy as opposed to negro DONNA
ton.

War plays havoc with glittering
generalities as well as with other
hings. AT the close OF the Boer war
smoking room strategists were
agreed that the bayonent was made
obsolete by the wide firing zone of
long range rifles. Yet the Japanese
are said to have taken Nanshan by a
bayouent charge under the cover of
heavy artillery fire, precisely as
Napoleon would have done it in his
day. All of which teaches us that it
is not safe to generalize from special
cases.

An immense canal or ditch, under
the supervision of James T. Taylor, G.
