The Wheeling Register is not hope
less though ii did go of into paroxy-
Msms over the prospects of the submis-
sion of the prohibition amendment last
win ter for it is now actually condon-
ing the sins of the saloons and urging
them to reform themselves. When The
saloons reform themselves 1t will be
when the devil goes to preaching right
eousness. The saloons are not in the
prayer meeting and Sunday School
business. They are there for some
thing else to make more 6runkards and
to keep drunkaids drunk. They are
in every thing else but the reform bust
ness. They are in politics up to their
eyes ana they ale just about controlI-
our city, our state and our nation.
Shame on the church people.

There has been from time immem-
orable a certain class of women who
kept up a constant pratt e about wo-
n an suffrage but during The past year
or two there has been more discus
sion of the proposition than ever be-
fore and there seem to have been con-
siderable accessions to he ranks of
the suffragettes as they have become
known 1t is said that even some OF
the women who have hitherto been
too busy with the functions of New
York's -Four Hundred have enlisted
with the suffragettes and backing the
movement with their influence and
their fortunes. We find no less a per-
sonage than Mrs. o. Fl. P. Belmont in
Tie front ranks.
In a few western states woman have
en- given the elective franchise and
some sections may even hold some
Amor officer but we have never been
convinced that 1T is the province of
women to assume the rights and priv
eyes accredited to man only from the
rliest history of the human fami Y.
ornan'S sphere is on a higher and
I35,er plain than that occupied by
man. She is the queen Oh our homes,
the idol of our hearts, tine mother of
car children, she is purity, sympathy
I'd love.
The long haired men who are clam
ng for the right to vote will hardly
rec TO take the full position of men.
hey will hardly agree to bear arms
il time of war, we wculd hardly find
nny of them off-bearing on the saw
mill, or firing a mogul engine These
not the work of women neither is
becoming her b mingle in the de-
rading scramble o politics. 1t has
cen said that she who rocks the era
lie rules the world and that is about
re truth. The mother who rears. her
children right has no time for pcitics
and we trow very .ttt!e for nursing
poodle dogs and attending euchre par
ties. 4Afs

nefatious work again in Martinsburg
and seven or eight dogs were killed
last week. Ii seems a great pity that
the law authorities been unable 10

devilment. II is II felony and punish
able at five years in the State pen'ten-
tiary or a heavy Jail sentence and a
arge fine. The man who will per-
miscuonsly throw poison aboutin such
p manner as has been the case for some
time past in this city deserves all the

or cut your throat if he was certain of
hiding his crime.
