the work, he. in railroad parlanee, sup
piled the motive power.
We regret, however, that the whole
matter did not die years ago. Those
who felt most the pangs of the rend-
ing of the State, have had nothing to
do with keeping the present question
alive. The greed of the money kings
is alone responsible. But since VIr-
ginla is compelled TO be plaintiff we
See the bad blood that will be stirred,
for again will the questions tending to
embitter be pressed 10 The front. They
may have little to do with the issue,
indeed We can hardly see where they
will be at all pertinent, but tliey are
bound to arise. 1t is nasty business
and none regrets it III ore than we.
In concluding this subject, on this
line at least. we desire TO call attention
to two facts which show that there
was 10 overwhelming demand to be
separated from the mother State, let
feeling over the war have been never
so high.
The equitable proportion of the debt
which it was admitted had been in
Cured largely for W. Va. development
and which no man at this day can deny,
was assumed. Otherwise the scheme
would most likely have been delayed
or failed.
Then so fond, indeed so devoted,
were the people west of the Allegha-
MES to the name Virginia, to her ira
1itions and her place in the nation,
| that the name could net have been
thrown aside. Al that day the new
State could not have been formed
save by retaining in some way the
name Virginia in which her citizens
had such just and commendable pride.
Had they suffered such wrongs at the
hands of Virginia as we now hear they
suffered, the name would have been so
| lOathesOme, such stencil III thelr
nOstrels, as to have made them SpeW t
out of their mouths; and yet with all
| the passions of the war raging, they
were so devoted to their States name
and it's laws that they adopted both.
No argument. no assertion of bad
treatment, or dislike of institutions
can nullify these facts. The men west
of the Alleghanies, though they rend'
ed their State, would not dlsOWn heI
had lived, and prOspered, and grown
in sire myth and manhood. A tyranni-
| cal or brutal mother would have been
disOWned, q loving and devoted one
| was cherished and her nama craven in
the corner stone of their new edifice.

COCHRAN On INSURANCE.

Hon. Burke Cochran, member OF
Congress from New York, in a speech
last Friday in Congress touched up the
insurance frauds in the following way
in one part of his most caustic re
marks The very rich gentleman is
Mr.. Thomas F. Ryan, the eminent
statesman is the Hon. Grover Cleve-
land, the judge is Morgan j. O'Brien,
and the cabiuet officer is Paul Morton
1.-The Equitable company" said he
"has been reorganiZed on somewhat
peculiar basis. "A very rich gentleman
| whom we all have the right. l suppose,
| to call philanthropist-fo he himself
| has said it, and it is greatly to his
crcditwhas purchased the control of
this company and given two millions
and halt for stock that can pay him
| So 500 year.
THAT is to say, through his philan-
thropy he has given an earning power
| of $125, 900 for SO, 500 He is too good
a business man to have done that as a
matter of commerce. There is no eX-
PLANTATION for it except philanthropy.
Now, in order to appease the popular
mind on this philanthropic enterprise,
what has he done? Has he gone to
the insurance world to find this talent
that is worth $150.000 year or $75, 900
a year ? BY no means. He has gone
outside and appointed kind of tinan
cial vigilance committee, and not one
of the vigilantes has ever had anything
to do with an insurance company ex
cept that possibly one of them may
have borrowed money from it.
"a very eminent sta tesman, one of
the most illustriOus of our time, has
been called from the classic shades of
Princeton, where he has been spending
the decline of an illustrious life in
composing philosophical contributions
to the thought of the century, and
placed in the chair of an insurance
company with which, SO far as know,
he has never had the slightest acquain-
lance whatever.
Another gentleman, who ias | said,
may have borrowed money from an
insurance company, but certainly
never bad anything TO do with the ad
ministration of one, himself Il tinancier
of no mean distinction, is associated
with him, and the third is judge, an
eminent judge, a judge whose motives
nobody will ever question, but who,
in taking on this peculiar function of
Vigilante, has been compelled to dis
qualify himself from sitting in great
number of cases which the State OF
New York had expected him to adju
dictate.
"And in order to make efficient this
reform, a gentleman is selected who
may have been a good railroad man
l believe he was-and we have the au-
thority of the President for it that he
was an excellent Cabinet officer, too
good, in fact, to remain. and this gen
tleman. who, in the walks of life where
he had proven his efficiency, | do not
believe could command over $25, 900 or
$50. 900 year, gets $4,000 in a call
ing for which he has had 10 dualifica.
ton or preparation whatever. Now,
that is reform az the insurance com
panies themselves conceive it,

A Game HuntSm an.

The story comes from Craigsville
that Charles Fridley, youth working
on the track force of section Master
j. A. Mayo, has again bagged a wild
cat of enormous size. This is the third
he has captured during the last few
weeks, two of them being the size of
an ordinary dog. Mr.. Mayo says the
boy is as tough as pine knot, aud at
ter hard days work on the section
will start out after supper for the
mountains and hunt the better part of
the night, always bringing back album
danJ trophies of the chase, including
all kinds of game. The wild cats are
very fierce and dangerous, any one of
which judging from their unusual size
could have killed OF manned him seri-
Ously, has his aim been less true. The
skins of these animals he is carefully
keeping, perhaps, for his Christmas
money, who knows. The boy hunts
rabbits at night too and is equally sue
ceSSful.

IN MEMORY OF JUANITA.

She was so KIND, loved by all
Who knew her while in life;
So the Savior called her unto him.
Now all her days are bright.
Yet tits hard to say goodbye
10 those we love so dear;
Such is life, the good go first
To the land of bliss and cheer.
AS we look upon her peaceful face
Now so calm and still,
70 think her useful life is gone
Which no one else can fill;
Through tears we say Gods will be done
Bow our heads and pray,
70 meet her III the realms above
Where Shines one eternal day"
The way to US seems so dark
Until we look above,
Where the beautiful stars of hope shine
out
To tell us of a SayiOr'S love.
We feel that she is so far away
IL fills our heart with gloom,
The celestial shore is not so far
Where the flowers ever bloom,
s'Speed away" she loved to sing,
While in rapture held the throng
A voice as clear as that of bird
In the MARBLE of its song.
LO now she sings in another sphere
The song the angels sing
w HGlC oCdtu Cdtl OIL Hal ntl ulbIe
In the presence of the King
We weep; our friend is gone
A md vacant is the chair,
But tear can never dim her eye
la the realms above so fair
Oh Mother it will not be long
Til all of US mu go.
With hearts all kind we will submit
For the master wills it so
Bright angels came on snowy wings
TO bear her soul away,
And looked with pity on the form
Consigned to its bed of clay
When they saw that treacherous death
Their sister had beguiled,
One angel stopped to Kiss her cheek
And left a sacred smile.
Farewell dear Meta, farewell
That sweet old word goodbye,
For the reason We will meet again
Beyond the starry sky,
Y Our soul has left this world of strife
For the radiance of the other
Leaving title the angels love.
The sacred name of mother.
