THEY OBJECr TO TIE BADGE.
A Democratic Initiation that Arouses In.
alienation

a Democratic Imitation thnt ArouSes In
dIgnatIon.
For several weeks past Democratic
campaign badge, in plain imitation Of
the G. A. R. association badge, has been
on the market, and few of them have
been worn in Wheeling. The imitation
was not agreeable to the G. A. R. mem.
hers, and there has been a good deal Of
quiet protest. Saturday night Holiday
Post adopted the following:
WHEREAS, We as members OF the G.
A. r. claim to be non partisan, and it is
with indignation we sec political party
wearing a badge in imitation Of the G.
A. r. badge; therefore be it
RESOLVED, That we as members OF the
G. A. r. enter our protest against any
political party wearing such badge.
Furthermore we ask all parties keeping
campaign goods for sale, who are friends
OF the G. A. R., to not sell any such
badges.
Similar action had already been taken
by Thoburn Post OF Martins Ferry, and
all the other posts OF the vicinity are ex-
pected to follow suit.

FUNERAL OF MRS. BURT.
a Highly Respected Lady Gone to He
RaNrnrtl

a Highly Respected Lady Gone to Her
Reward.
The funeral services OF Mrs. Priscilla
Burt took place yesterday afternoon at
the Zane Street NJ. E. Church. Long
before the arrival of the funeral cortege
from the home the audience room OF
the church was filled with the members
of the church and the friends of the
deceased.
While the remains, borne upon the
shoulders OF the pail bearers, James Nc
Adams, Henry Ramp, John Reid, Jacob
Morris,l ALBERT Redman and Jacob Jefers,
were being carried up the aisle, fol-
lowed by the family and friends, the
choir sweetly sang Nearer, my God, to
Thee" At the conclusion OF the 957th
hymn-"A few more years shall roll"
prayer was offered by the pastor,
Rev. 9. B. Graham. Remarks were then
made by the pastor, touching the life
and character OF the deceased-a tribute
showing Christian character, n life de-
voted to her family and her church, and
perfect resignation to the will OF God.
At the conclusion OF the pastors re-
marks, the entire audience passed down
the centre aisle and viewed the remains,
which were incased in beautiful rose
wood casket. A great number OF those
present were advanced in years, and
had probably been associates Of the
deceased during her life. Many were
visibly affected as they took the last look
upon their friend and sister. Mrs. Burt
had been member Of the Methodist
Church for forty-eight years and has
been identified with the Zane Street
Church for sixteen years Of that time.
She had lived to see her entire family,
six sons and four daughters, become
men and women. At the conclusion Of
the services the funeral cortege wendell
its way to Greenwood cemetery, where
the interment took place.

went over to GAINESVILLE and in the after
noon played IN exhibition game with
the Kickapoos. 1t was well for Wheel.
ing that it was an exhibition game and
did not count in the championship
series, for the work OF the team was very
canary-tinted and resulted in their defeat
by score OF u to 8. 1t is surely some
thing singular that the Wheeling team
should go to the bOw.wows SO frequently
when Off the home grounds.
Yesterday the aggregation piled up
eleven errors-in other words, present
ed the Kickapoo tribe with an orna-
mental scalp. When team OF Wheel
ing's quality makes eleven errors in one
game the playing may well be character
lied ms "bum." GAINESVILLE made four
errors. Wheeling made eight hits, and
GAINESVILLE knocked seven hits out OF
Flanagan's delivery. This is beautiful
record. There was good sized audience
present. The team will be home at 5
o'clock this morning,

urdny's VIctory-GoneiRl Ball News.


urday's vIctOry-Goneial Ball News.
The gamss Of ball to be played at
Island Park to-day and tomorrow by the
Lima and Wheeling teams viii probably
be the most interesting and exciting that
have been seen on the home grounds
this season, or that are likely to be seen
during the balance OF the season.
Wheeling won in Saturdays game here
with Kalamazoo, and Lima lost the
game played at GAINESVILLE, and thereby
Wheeling got q good grip on first place.
Wheeling has now won 80 champion
ship games and lost IS. Lima's record
is 80 won and 20 lost. This amounts in
the percentage table to II points by
which number Wheeling is in the lead
in the race for the pennant.
The two games TO be played here with
Lima will be the last championship
games played here till August 10. The
Wheeling team will leave Tuesday night
for Sandusky and will play eighteen
games while on this trip. The Wheel
ing team is anxious to win these two
games in order 10 strengthen the hold
on first place. The Lima team is, pre-
sumably, equally anxious to win them 80
US to regain her lost place at the head of
the column. This being the state OF
affairs the fight for these two games is
bound to be lively one and coupled
with the fact that these games arc the
last to be played here for one month,
should draw large crowds. The two
teams are the strongest in the League
and the lead depends on the outcome of
these games.
both and start out on the second trip in
first place as it did before. 1t is to be
hoped the team will not return in fifth
place as it did before. Manager Buck
enberger expects to win u OF the IS
games to be played away from home.

The Battle Cry.
Americas Recorder

Americas Recorder
Tariff reform is to be the battle
cry in the coming campaign, and
under the Democratic banner will
be enrolled all those who are OPP
posed to monopolies and thriving
trusts.
PresidentsCleveland, in a recent
interview with the chairman Of the
Democratic national executive COM
mittee, expressed his desire that
the campaign should be straight
forward and aggressive one, and
tariff reform, as expounded in the
St. Louis platform, should be made
the main issue. The President will
see that this course is followed, so
that such a change OF front of the
tariff question which embarrassed
aud defeated the Democratic party
in 1880 will be impossible. The
national executive campaign COM
mittee, under the direction Of
the President, will begin active
operations next week, 1t will
be specially changed with mission
airy work on the tariff question
first. 1t will send out copies Of
the Presidents message and of the
tariff reform speeches to all state
committees and will see that the
state committees reach all Demo-
cratic editors and orators. The Pres
ident is believer in the possibili.
ties OF taffff education. He wants
to see every voter reached with in
structions on the tariff question
before the summer is over. Chair
man Barnum will appoint an exec
utive campaign committee, which
will carry out the Presidents ideas
10 the campaign. William l. Scott
will be a member of it, and possibly
its chairman.

On the heels of the Republican
convention comes the statement
that Illineis is ready to join the
army of the Democracy. The
farmers, whose property is taxed
almost out Of existence under Re-
publican measures, have become
tired Of supporting the party which
prevents this burden from being
taken from them, and the prohibi.
tionists are Disguised with republi-
can tactics. ''Can this be trueY'
asks the New York Herald. Very
likely it is. Whether the revol,
will be extended enough to give
the State to the Democrats is the
important question. That it win
be is not impossible. Elk.
