Some of the Things Wheeling Has Accom-
plished within Recent Years

Wheeling is slowly hut none the less
surely moving forward. \ few years have
wrought many and important changes in
the town, although they have for the most
part come 80 quietly and been received in
such matter-ot-course spirit that their
foil effect has been lost 1t is not many
years ago that Wheeling was nothing more
than IN overgrown town. with unpaved
and jnad,quately lighted and poliCed
streets, volunteer fire department. Of
uncertain value, a restricted water supply,
and very indifferent public facilities
generally. From this condition We have
come to hsye all the advantages Of a great
city, with a corresponding increase in the
general welfare and happiness To sure,
some Of these additions to our comfort ana
safety and convenience have not been made
possible without more or less energetic OBJ
iectinus on the part OF some, hut t.ey have
cone all the same, and little by little those
who opposed them the most earnestly have
come To see that the innovations were good
things, and that their hostility was uu-
called for and not justified. Let ns see
what some Of these Improvements were.

THE "COUHTIES" CONE UP SMILING
And Endorse the Work Of the "Gitzans,.'
Convention.

NEW YORK, October 6.--Ths Herald
says: 1t is admitted that q delegation
from the Democratic National Campaign
Committee, consisting Of Senator A. p
German, ex-senator w. il. Barnum, and
Congressman W. L. Scott, Of Erie, called
on Mayor Hewitt yesterday to urge Dema
cratic harmony. Mr.. Hewitt received the
delegation courteously. but blandly TO
fused to 'budge" one inch. "If you gen.
tlsmen had called on me week ago, ]
might have RETIRED" said Uncle Abe,
sententiously; ''but I intend to run now,
and nothing can prevent me-" The dele
CATION journeyed back t, the Fifth Avenue
Hotel not altogether satisfied.
The Sun gives the following description
of the way the Mayor received the news
of ,Tammany's action: "Mr. Hewitt
walk 4 into the par!or last night and said:
"How are you?" to reporter and then
thrusting his hands into his pockets, walk ed
ND and down while he talked. II am not
going to express any opinion" he said,
"but that won't prevent me from hearing
who the nominees are" Their names
were read off to him, and he was asked if
he would run sglinst Mr.. Grant.
You can't get me to say anything
against these gentlemen" he said. From
this action / should imagine thst Tam
many Hall is anxious for straight stand
up fight. Tammany has made several at
tempts to place man in the Mayors
chair without very great success. The
man chosen by that organization tonight
as its candidate for Mayor is straight
out and ont Tammary man. He is i'm
bued with Tammany principles, and it
would be hard TO find better repIesen- |
tstiv of those prime pes than he is. Tam
many is evidently willing to fight this
battle on its merits, and anxious to secure
whatever power goes with the office"
Mr.. Hewitt declined to say what his in |
tions were regard ng the ipdtpsndent
received On Thursday night. |
He was asked if he would atcspt the
nomination Of the county Democracy.
~ have already tod you," he said,
that I will rot say anything on that sub
ect. If should become candidate for
he oflice of Mayor again, intend to take
no active hand in the matter. / shall
cave the choice. with the pr ople."
''Do yoa think that if thtre are three
in the field it will help the Ma
ional ticket?"
81 believe a great many rerNons think so

utmost of hi Judgment and alb lity.
The Democrats in this vicinity are very
enthusiastic ard Meade district can be
