The appalling death-rate from kid

the fact that the little kidney troubles

give place to chronic disorders and
the sufferer goes gradually into the

form of kidney complaint.

Norgantown, Va, Sept. 10.
Although ladies have no voice in
public bodies, which entirely accords
with our sentiments of propriety,
when it is question of taste and
preference may they not wish to die
tate, but only respectfully ask and
even urge, that our new State may
not be called Kanawha. We do not
object to the name itself, but depre-
cate change. This section of vir-
ginia has long been known as West
ern Virginia and we think this title
would sufficiently distinguish our new
State from the old. We have no
foolish prejudice against being separ-
ated from the aristocracy of eastern
Virginia, but we were born on vir-
ginia soil, and our attachment for the
name and soil is strong, and since it
is they, and not we, who have chang
ed the government, let US keep the
good old name of Western Virginia.
If they do not choose to be identified
by the same name, let them find
another"

HOW WEST VIRGINIA WAS NAMED

Do you know how West Virginia
was name? Probably not. Or that
the present name was due to the in
fuence of women2 Most likely you
do not. Well, Virgil A. Lewis, the
state archivist, in recent interview
gives very interesting account of it.
THE second convention of the
people of Northwestern Virginia on
the Goth day of August, 1861, at
Wheeling, adopted an ordinance
providing for the jurisdiction of the
old Commonwealth of Virginia and
it was provided therein that the name
of the new State should be that of
Kanawha.
In this ordnance it was provided
that the people within the. limits of
the proposed new State should vote
on the question of its creation at an
election to be held on the fourth
Thursday of the ensuing October
and if the majority OF voters were in
favor of the formation of such new
State, then Governor Pierpoint was
required to issue proclamation requir-
ing the delegates elected to assemble
in the United States court room at
Wheeling on the Goth of November
for the purpose offraming a consititu-
ton for the proposed new state of
Kanawha. The total number ofvotes
cast was 1889, of which S,4oS
were in favor of the new State and
ISL against it. Accordingly, Gov
ernor Pierpoint issued his proclaim
alton November Z ensuing, converting
the constitutional convention, Nov
ember e6th as before stated.
KANAwHA DlsrAsTFuL.
Meantime the subject of name
for the new State was discussed and
and the question, What's in
Manner" was much agitated. 1t was
said that the term Kanawha'' is
suggestive of nothing but its Indian
origin; that its primitive meaning is
wrapped in obscurity, and that its
present Interpretation is extremely
doubtful. Something, said the
people of the time, is due to custom
harmony, good taste, adoption and
our own sense and love OF tae beau
tiful, none of which are found in
this outlandish name Some of the
most beautiful names of our state
and rives rare of Indiana origin, and
because they are beautiful they
will serve to perpetuate IN more
enduring manner, then name and fame
of the aborigines, than if they were
engraven on the marble column or
granite obelisk. But Kanawha'' is
not one of these beautiful names and
was never so considered by the In
dams themselves. Why not, there
fore, reject it for the simple, more
suggestive and better adapted name
of Western Virginia, = if something
better cannot be found. We already
have two rivers and one country in
Western Virginia bearing the name
'Kanawha quite enough one
would think, to perpetuate this old
Indian name without using whole
state for this purpose.
But now it was that the ladies of
the northern part ofthe State became
active and took hand in the matter,
as is evidenced by the following
which appeared in the Wheeling
Intelligence, September, is, 1861:

THREE CHOICES.

"We are for Western Virginia,
West Virginia, or New Virginia, pre-
fering them in the order named
Western Virginia is the longest, but
it is the prettiest, the most appro-
pirate, the best known already by
that name and we are satisfied that
it is the choice of large majority of
the people. The length of the name
need not be objected to, for it would
soon be written BY initials and in a
shor: time W. V. would be as well
known as n. Y.
Please tell US whether the next
convention will have power to change
the name of the State.
After quoting these letters written
by the ladies' of Morgantown and
Fairmont, Historian Lewis continued:
1t seems that the constitutional
convention which met on the Goth of
November ensuing, to frame con-
stitution for the new State of Kama
wha, if they did not see the hand
writing on the wall, heard the adj
monitor, and whether the body
possessed it or not, assumed the
power to change the name.
ION the fourth day of the session,
James Harvey, member from Brooke
county, submitted a resolution pro.
yiding that the name of Kanawha'
be stricken out of the ordinance and
that of New Virginia inserted in
its place. This was referred without
action.

We protest against the name of

an ugly name. 1t IS inappropriate,
and it is not the choice of the people
inhabiting the territory; or to say
the least it is not the choice of the

it is peculiarly obnoxious.

THE DOMESTIC HELP QUESTION.
Information Y

Information Wanted From Housekeepers.
In connection with the investigation of
the domestic help question the bureau of
industrial and labor statistics is sending
out, through its special agent, Miss Eva
L. Shorey, a circular for the purpose of
securing needed information. The circu-
lar is sent to housekeepers who employ
help and their cooperation is sought by
request to answer the question enclosed
in the circular. Those receiving the cir
cular are also asked to give an expression
of their personal views on the general
situation, the answers to be confidential
to the extent that names will not be used
in connection Herewith. The data Sc
cured in this way will be utilized in the
making up of the annual report of the
bureau.
The questions asked include the name
of the employer, residence, if women
servants are employed, ard if so how
many, if they are employed for general
homework, as cook, nurse or chamber
maids, the number of persons in the
family, if the duties of the servant in
clude the care of children, how MANY
hours per day the servant is expected to
be on duty, the wages paid per week
and per month, if the wages are higher
at present than IN previous years, if the
supply of domestic help is increasing or
decreasing, what part of the week the
servant has as free time, if servants are
allowed to receive company, and if so, in
what part of the house, nationality of
present servant, married or single, age,
If of foreign birth how long she has been
in this country, if the present servant
had training in domestic science, if the
service received is satisfactory, if the
employer would be willing to pay higher
wages and grant more privileges for
more efficient service, what nationality
is considered most desirable for domestic
help, which of the foreign born, are do
nestle helpers employed by the hour, if
so, how much is paid per hour, if the
servant rooms in the employers house
or some other place.
In closing the circular asks the en-
ployer to give expression to her personal
views in connection with the servant
girl problem, and what inducements can
be offered girls to accept employment
as household workers in preference to
manufacturing or mercantile pursuits.
