Mrs, Partinpton Saws,

Don't take any of the quack rostrums, ,as
they are regimental to the human els

which will cure general dilapidation,
costive habits and all comic diseases.
They saved Isaac from a severe extract
of tripod fever. They are the ne plus

THE Democrats are resorting to all
kinds of tricks to elect their Represena-

are offering to give two votes for Foster
for one for Atkinson-Republicans we
suspect are not verdent enough to nibble

BELLIARE.
The Blaine Boom

The meeting last Friday was as com.
plete a success as the most enthusiastic
Republican could desire. Early in the
morning Kramer's Band came down, ,and
for time discoursed the sweetest of
music around the town. About 10
o'clock the gathering of the Republican
clans commenced, and by l P. NJ. some
5000 or 1000 people were anxiously
awaiting the arrival of the distinguish
ed speaker, whose reputation for years
has made him the pride of that grand
old party, which although young in
years, is unequaled in its positive results
"a country saved, 100000 of slaves
freed, and after the most sanguinary
struggle probably in the worlds history,
to-day, in place Of a bankrupt Govern
ment, we have sound finances-dollar
for dollar in gold and silver. MIR. Blaine
arrived at 212 P. NJ, and Immediately
commenced his speech, which was lis
tened to with marked attention by his
immense audience. In twenty-five years
experience in Bellaire, no man was ever
greeted more cordially than Mr.. Blaine
last Friday. A very large majority of
the houses were neatly decorated, and
many of the business houses prOfuSely
so, with flags, evergreens, emblems, &c,
showing their full appreciation not only
of the man, but also the principles he
represents. Altogether the meeting was
one the Republicans of Belmont county
may well be proud of, not only for its
numbers, but the cordial outburst of ap-
plause which at each stage of the speech
was given when the grand principles
were SO clearly conveyed by one who
has no superior and but few equals i'll
the United States.

Sam Cary, once Wing, next Know
Nothing, next Prohihitionist, next IA
Republican, again ProhibitiOniSt, next
Democrat, now turns up in the role of
a "What-is-it?" or better still, politi-
cal hermaphrodite. His speech, which
there is no doubt, is made by the pay of
the Democratic party, was delivered
here last night. A little time after dark
we noticed the Democratic platform all
ablaze with gas-lights, and not hearing
of any meeting there, sauntered quietly
up street in search of information as to
what was going on, and was told by two
Democrats Cary was going to speak on
their stand, so went back to my den, and
commenced reading my evening paper,
and had partially finished, when band
passed by, but as that is so common
here, took no notice TO it, but little af-
ter 8, the noise over at City Hall, made
us think there was Il band of negro
minstrels over there, and walked over to
put in the time, but much to my sur
prise no fee was eXacted, and Il full
house greeted ID. V. Sam, who, owing to
lack of audience, could not speak Oh

and got together enough of Democratic
claquers to make big noise, and excite

THE STOGIE STRIKE.
Facts and Figures in Relation
Thereto.

OF all Wheeling's manufactures, there
il none in which she is so largely en-
gagged, capital aside, as the making OF
stogies and tips. Her nails have ma
tional reputation-sO have her stogies.
She sends glass far and wide-but not
more so than stogies. Thousands and
millions of this form OF the weed are
turned out annually from her factories,
and hundreds of men are given employ
ment in their manufacture. The ave-
rage intelligent citizen would be
astounded to learn the true
extent of this business, which
can be learned only by visiting the
numberless factories scattered through
out the city.
The stogie is emphatically, the poor
mans luxury, and is manufactured 10
meet his wants. 1t sells at a figure
within his means and consequently the
demand is great. To supply portion,
and large portion, of this demand, IS
the mission OF our Wheeling factories.
We mentioned, in yesterdays REGIS
TER. that the Cigar Makers Union had
resolved upon a strike, and TO learn
full particulars, a representative OF this
paper made a round, yesterday, among
the cigar men and made successful
snatch at the situation. All OF the cigar
makers struck on Wednesday, but so
quiet was it kept that the public had no
intimation of it. Nearly all went back
YESTERDAY morning, most OF the manu-
facturers acceding TO their demand. 70
far as we can learn the new prices are
being paid by the following firms, who.
work the accompanying number oil
hands:

A Union was formed here some time
AGO, n local Union, and soon dissolved.
The present one is connected with the
Central Union, which has its headquar-
tiers at New York. One OF the principal
objects of the strike was to- enforce a
uniformity of prices. 1t seems that
heretofore there has been no scale, each
manufacturer paying what he could al
ford and what his men would take.
This, however, applied more to tips
and better cigars, stogie rates having
been rather uniform. Wheeling does
very little outside of stogies and tips,
and though the scale, which is presented
below. embraces ALL its formation had
most bearing Oh stOgics. Mr.. Hide
brand, Secretary OF the Union, has FUR
nishcd us with the following scale:

fed goods taken from their establish
ments. The goods were displayed at

The Day of Test.

This is the time OF year when the eff
cacv of the street cleaning contract Sys-
tenn can be fully tested. Heretofore 1t
has been all play, but the holiday Is
over and the contractor will have 10 DO
his speedy utmost to satisfy those who
have opposed the project from the be-
ginning. The one stain on Wheel
iug's 'scutcheOn, ii the expression
NAV be allowed, is her terrible
streets in winter. Four out OF
every five streets are transformed, by
the first rain in fall, To Dutch canals
and To heavy team passage is morally
impossible. Already, with the light
rains we have had, the unpayed streets
are beginning to put on their wintry as
per;. Chapline, below the creek, which
was recently rs hard as the pike, is now
as SOFT as slush can make it, and most OF
the crossings are living under three
inches Of liquid mud.
Now, MeSSieurs Contractors, show
what YOU can do.
