SuR:-Mr, Frank p. Iams, OF Pitts
burph, in his speech on Friday evening,
wanted to know!"what right the Repu6.
lican party had to use the American flag
MS an emblem when it had never put one
Of the stars on it." The very best right
in tho world, Mr.. Iams, and for many
reasons; and we will mention one.
When the greater portion OF the Demo-
cratic party were doing all they could to
destroy the flag, the Republican party
saved it, and thereby retained on its
folds eleven st9rs that would otherwise
have gone ont in worse than night.
Yes, the Republican party, assisted by n
small portion OF the Democratic party,
saved the dear old flag, and we think it
thereby gained perfect right to use it
as an emblem. Ifhistory does not lie,
it seems to us that four stars were added
to its fqlds under. Republican admins
tratlons. Mr.. Iams also said that the
Democratic party was promulgated July
4, 1910. Our histories inform US that
there were no political parties until near
theclose Of Washington administration,
pending the discussion OF the various
questions that arose for consideration at
that time. The parties then were known
as Republican and Federalist, Jefferson
Madison and Randolph were the leaders
OF the former and Hamilton and Adams
OF the latter. The Republican party did
not take the name Democrat until near
the close OF MoDroe's administration; at
the same time the Federalists took the
name OF Wing. Andrew Jackson and
John G. Calhoun were the champions Of
the Democrats and Henry Clay and John
Quincy Adams Of the Wings,
No doubt Mr., Iams thinks he can say
what he nle0ses in West Virginia, 1t
might do for him to talk thus in his ma
tive county tGreepel Pennsylvania
where his political Observation-Disclosures
fore been made, but we would think he
is not the man 10 enlighten the people
OF Wheeling on the subject of tariff or
the farmers OF West Virginia on the sub
ject OF free wool. There are quite a
humber living in Wheeling who know
Frank well, and while they respect him
socially and know him to be a gentle
man, do not take much stock in him as
q politician. REApRR.

At the time OF the Labor Day demon
stration in Pittsburgh few weeks since
a Young man from this city who is quite
well connected went up to that city and
was entertained by afriend. They both
rot comfortably full ut night and went to
bed together. During the night the
Wheeling man purloined about SEQ from
his hosts pantaloon pockets. Hester-
day the Pittsburgher came down here
armed with Pennsylvania warrant
for the arrest Of tho young
man. Officer West took charge OF the
ease and would have had the thief be-
hind the bars had not the Plttsburgher
been willingto compromise on the pay
ment to him OF the amount lost, by the
brother Of his guest, After that an ar
rancement was made whereby names
we're 10 be suppressed, and the thiefs
sisters, who are very nice people, saved
from modification.

In the Charleston, W. Va, Daily
Gazette Democratic) OF Friday, October
10, appears the following candid utter
ance:
"a manufacturer in Wheeling has
been heard to say that il Mr.. Cleveland
is elected this year, grass will grow in
the streets Of that city. Well, all We can
reply to such nonsense is that II the
Wheeling man can not or will not manu-
iacture his goods that will compete with
the foreign article in the markets, he
would be wise in closing his factory and
going ut something else. This is COM
mon sense and common justice and hon
esty, nothing less"
Democratic orators will still 60 on and
say "No Democrat wants Free Trade.n

WATER WORKS FINANCES.

McetInu. POSTPONED,


Meeting Postponed.
The Water Works Committee OF Coun
Gil and the Board of Water Commission
ers we're 10 haye had joint meeting last
evening, but as aquorlm Of the commit
tee failed 10 appear, nothing was done
The meeting was called to consider whit
promises to be deficit in the Boards
finances at the end OF the year, the re
suit OF the extraordinary expenses the
Board was forced to meet by reason o.
the floods OF July 10 and August 90
Those floods swept away natural gas
pipes through which the Water
Works received its fuel, free OF
cost, and nocessjtgted the ex-
penditure OF Sl,3l3 81 Tor coal, That,
however, was an unforeseen expense
that was small in comparison with
that made necessary by the washing
away OF large and expensive mains at
Main street and CGldWell's run. To re-
place these and make them permanent,
a work that is still in progress, SO that
the South Side might have a water sup
ply, has or will, cost about SIS, 200.
This, as all know, was q work that had
TO be done. In case the weather per-
mits the contractor TO complete the
new reservoir this year, about
81, 900 will be demanded, which, II all
that amount has to be paid out, will
leave a shortage OF about Sll 800. 1t
can be readily seen that had not the
floods caused an unexpected outlay Of
about $50, 900 there would have been a
surplus OF something over $1,000 ut the
end Of the year. Another effort to hold
a meeting will be made to-day.

What Their Company Would Like to DO.
The Freight DlocIades.


The Freight DiOckades.
Mr.. j. F. Legge, superintendent Of the
western divisions OF the Baltimore &
ohio's main stem, came up from Graf
ton yesterday. Hewas accompanied by
Mr.. U. h. Williams, his chief train dis
patcher, Captain Arthur Sinsel and
Major j. A. Hunter. They were here
in consultation with the officials at this
end trying to devise some plan whereby
the heavy freight blockades between here
aud Benwood, which are seriously in
conveniencing the passenger traffic, can
be Mt least temporarily avoided, or until
such time as it be definitely known
just what the city proposes to do. Ii
the city will grant the Baltimore & Ohio
company the right to lay two additional
tracks in MCCollch street below Forty
first street, without putting on riderin
the shape OF legislation for Marshall
county, the Baltimore & Ohio is ready
to so ahead and build its shops
and engine houses sufficient to nc
commOdate thirty-two engines, in the
limits OF this city and county.
But ii the city will not allow this, the
company will in all likelihood build
these shops on its property in
Marshall county below Boggs' run.
Its business is increasing here
so that something has got to be done.
and that quickly, to do away with the
freight bloCkades that are occurring
daily. Ii the city pnsues the same
course in this matter that she has for
merly followed, the shops will probably
be built in Marshall county, and the
city and county will forever be the losers
in taxes and population. The railroad
company is anxious to be given n fair
show to build these shops independent
OF the improvements it asks to be allow
cd to make in the way OF new route
through, and passenger station in, this
CITY.
