A GREAT MEETING

Addressed by job D. Pendleton and Col
Arnett, at Moundsville.
Hon. ]. o. Pendleton aud Col W
W. Arnett addressed the Demo
cratic Club at the Court House, al
Moundsville, last Saturday evening. Col
Arnett had been invited to address the
Club, and Mr.. PendletOn stopped Of
on his way to Msighen, in the afternoon,
The meeting was gotten up in less thar
two hours and was held in the Court
House, as the club rooms were found to be
entirely too small to seat the crowd which
had assembled to listen to the speakers.
The President, Mr.. McCarriher, intro
duced the first speaker, Mr.. Pen
dleton, as the next Congressman from
the First District. Mr.. Pe1dleton was re-
eeived with an outburst of applause, and
after paying his compliments, turned his
attention to the tariff. He showed the in
constituencies of the present high tariff;
that while it raised the price Of the do
nestle manufactured articles Of this coun-
try, it was not a benefit to the laboring
man, for while the gigantic corporations
and trusts, composed Of the millionsires
of the country, were p,cketing their mil
lions, given them by the iniquitous tariff,
the laboring mao is striving for his daily
maintenance, and living in penury and
want; that while necessaries OF hts-ev-
erything which they are compelled TO
buy for the use o. their families, is protect
ed, labor, the only thing that come into
competition with them, Is imported into
this country free of tax. He showed them
that the labor organizations Of the country
do more good in keeping up the price OF
labor than all the tariff laws that were
ever passed by Congress. The speech had
a good effect upon the coal miners, a large
number of whom were present aud who
are now enjoying the benefits of lockout
At the conclusion of Mr.. Pendleton' g speech
Col. Arnett was introduced and spoke Tor
three quarters of an hour. He showed
that the Republicans had entirely taken
the back track in this campaign, and quoted
the former platforms of that party an
the messages to Congress Of the
hcpuDllChu ICchkCht5. LIZ Ao'S 49,
Republicans had always taken the
revenue off that class of persons who could
best afford the tax. They had taken the
tax off bank checks, and Of course the poor
laborirg man always writes the checks.
They took the tax of deposits, and 1t il
the poor man that makes the deposits.
And now, rather than reduce the tax upon
the necessaries of life, they want to flood
this country with free whisky.
Col. Arnett was compelled to close his
address to reach the train.
Everything was q decided success, and
all were we'll pleased except the Republi'
cans, who went away disappointed to
think that the Democrats could get up
such a meeting in the short period of two
hours.
Hon. G. W. Daley will speak there on
the Goth, when we expect a rousing time

wife-The Couple Locked Up.
Yesterday morning Officers Shorts and
Dunlap arrested q Pittsburg man, named
Henry Lutte, on a telegram from the
Pittsburg officials, who said he was want.
ed mp there. A short time after the
prisoner had been locked up a woman
giving her name as Mrs. Jessie Shelley
came to the City Hall and made inquiries
ss to the arrest of the man. She indis'
cretely urfolded q very interesting tale to
Chief Smith, and as a result she wa also
consigned 10 q cell TO await the arrival oil
the Pittsburg officials.
1t seems from the woman's story that
she has left her husband and two children
in Pittsburg and came or to Wheeling to
meet Lutzs. She was stopping at the
Sherman House, in Bridgeport, and on
coming across to the city to board a
house boat, az had been agreed upon, she
found Lutte had been taken into custody.
Mrs. Shelley told a pitable story Of the
cruelty and abuse Of her husband, who,
she said was q confirmed drunkard, and
wept copiously as she made her statement.
The Pittsburg officials are expected
down this morning.
