sTAUNT0N'S STRUGGLE.

The legal fight against the transfer
nation of Stanton from a second to

dignified as legal since there was

riously drawn petitions for Mandam US,
and Prohibition. 10 get them beyond
the threshold of the Supreme Court,
back over which they emerged little
later rather ignominiOusly, with the
foot Of the court visible,c closely behind.
The fight has lacked merit as we'll as
most other elements which usually go
to dignity contest. There is little
use 10 trying to conceal the fact that
the public good was not the only thing
sought. The public thinks there were
personal ends as well, and no virtuous
protestations can dispel this belief.
Every body wanted the first class Gil y

were united in one heroic effort to OBJ
tain it. Suddenly scales fell from
somebody's eyes, new light appeared,
and from that moment on a most I'M
seenly If not undlgnlfied scramble
was made to undo all that had been
done to obtain the one object upon
which all hearts, were up to that mo.
ment set. Why this change? Why
this scrambled Why this unseemly
tangle Were the reasons for it noble,
high minded and unselfish ? We wish
We thought SO. we wish we could find
some who would say SO. But now
that 1t is over we trust those who have
brought about this needless expense,
who were 30 anxious. by the use of the
eity's funds, to tiud something wrong
with the city's Transformation, and
who longed SO deeply for "a correct
census" will enter no objection to
having the bill of costs they have
heaped upon the tax payers by this
unnecessary and vapid fight correctly
published. These costs should be
audited separately and not mixed with
other matters, audited so as to show
each item OF expense and to whom
paid, and let the property holders of
this city say whether they will stand

so little merit as not to be able, when
dressed in it's most becoming raiment,
to more than look in at the front door
OF our Supreme Court. For once let
US know, where our riches have been
heaped up, and who has gathered them.

Why THE HEATHEN RAGE

The Pocahontas wv. Va Times
calls prayerful attention to the assest-
mant of the railway property in that
county. The G. u o g Greenbrier
division has about 63 miles in that
county assessed at 1920 ola, and the
West Va. Central IS miles assessed at
S72 7tj6. At the same time 80 miles OF
this Greenbrier division, of which the
rs miles is part, is mortgaged at
THREE MILLION DOLLARS As all
property in W. Va. is now, under ts
good Republican government, requir.
ed to be assessed at ACTUAL VALUE
aud as the actual value is at the least
the price at which it can be used to
borrow money, this branch, instead OF
being assessed at $320,5l4 should. says
the Times, be assessed at 81. 900 900. OF
about 500. 900 per mile. The W. Va.
Genital should be at the same, raising
its valuation for taxable purposes from
$72, 1853 to 1894 900 1t further calls at
tention to the fact that the property
of one lumber company In that cOun.
ty Is assessed higher than the G. & o.
Ry. and the w. Va. Central property
combined. 1t is needless to add that
a board of public works assesses the
railroad property, whilst the county
assessor assesses the private property.

IN MEMORIAM.

News has been received OF the death
of the old second class city Of Staun-
ton. For some weeks 1t had been in
Ill health. struggling - 1t were be
tween life and death, but experienced
physicians had been called, patient and
kind nurses were on hand, and all that
human skill and medical science could
suggest had been done, bat amid pain
and suffering its life went out. Its spirit
took flight on Friday the sd
inst, about II O'Clock a. M, at a
hospital in Richmond, whence it had
beeA carried by its friends believing
thai whilst there was life there was
hope. TIE Immediate cause of dissolu
item dates back to the day when the
old city went out and overexerted itself
in gathering sub herbs. Since then 1t
has not been we'll. The old second class
city Is dead, but whilst We mourn It's
loss. we are comforted to know that in
its stead new first class city has
been born.
Little City thou hast left Us,

Why We KILLED ALL THE M0RUS.

There are many reasons given why
our troops killed all the MorOs In the
recent assault ON Mt. Dsjo In Jolo.
First-They were very lawless PEG
pie, and the only way to subdue them
was by humiliation.
Second-The men carried their w0
men and children as shields. thus com.
polling them ty be killed SO that the
soldiers could get at the men.
Third-They dressed their women Of
men and the soldiers could not distin'
guish them from the men.
Fourth-They were up in the crater
where the artillery killed them, hence
it was impossible for the women and
children to be distinguished from the
men. Our artillerymen did all they
could to distinguish them.
Fifth-The children would have
grown to be men and women and In
the end they would have been to kill
entailing extra cost and trouble.
Sixth-They could not have beer
starved into surrendering without
great expense.
Seventh-The Moro is very fond o
bis wife and children, and had he found
himself surrounded and an attempt
made to starve him into surrendering
he would have attempted to break
through the lines and would have
caused us to lose more men than we
would lose by the inside adopted.
Eighth-The Moros seeing they
could not escape killed themselves.
Ninth-The Moros cannot live in
captivity, they pine. like the Gagged
eagle, hence it was better to kill them
at once than let them languish and dit
10 captivity.
Tenth-There were many other ora
tiers near where the Moros were hid,
but Gen. Wood needed that particular
crater in bis business, and could mo-
control it with Moros in it.
Eleventh-There had not been M uct
for the soldiers to do of late and they
needed exercise.
Twelfth-The lesson administered
here would have salutary effect OF
other Moros, so soon as they received
the morning papers, and read the al.
thorized account of the battle.
Other reasons will probably arriv
by the next boat.

WOMEN GROWING TALLER.

The latest statistics relating to the
human frame show that the average
height of the American woman has
increased one inch in the last decade,
while the man has not gained a frac-
ton of an inch; in fact, he has lost
fraction. There is food for thought
III these figures, yet it will not do to
get hysterical about them as some SEN
sational newspapers have done. There
is no reason to aver that the future

may be made that the woman is grad
