How John o'Kane Came to Be Defeated
For Mayor.

ELKISs, w. VA, January II.
To ne Editor Of the Register:
SIR:-At mass convention wnieh
was 10 bring out corporation tlcAeI II
respective of party, John O'kane re-
eeiyed the nomination for Mayor. Inc
Republicans were dissatisfied and went
IN work 10 defeat him. On the promise
that there should be no political hght'
they got Imri Hunt, a Democrat deIea1-
ed in the mass convention, to run lnue-
pendent. The Republicans charged
That O'Kane had challenged steve
Flkins' vote and that he sustained the
actions OF J. w. Petit, a former postmss-
ter OF this place. Mr.. Petit was hench-
man OF Elklns, but not satisfying the
Republicans they drove him out OF town
and then, through Elk'ns' endeavorS'
forced him to resign. O'Kane was lrlehu-
ly toward Petit. These offences were
charged against s.Mr. O'Kane by Repuo-
Iicans who thus worked against MIN 10
their own party. They urged the tenn
Deraace Democrats TO vote Tor hunt,
saving that the fight was not political
and that O'Kane was whisky man De-
cause two whisky men were supporting
him. To Protestants they argued tnat
IL would never do to elect an irish
Catholic. A letter was written to the
Superintendent of Construction OF the
West Virginia Central Railroad Com
papy, OF which Mr.. Elkins is Vice
President, telling him that he must see
10 IL that O'Kane was defeated. Inc
Superintendent was an O'Kane man, but
fearing that he would lose his position, he
went 10 work for Hunt. On election day
the Superintendent marched allthe men
under him to the polls, telling them
that if they did not want TO lose their
places they had better vote for hunt:
The latter's majority was %, instead OF
the 'large majority" as the IRtettl-
gencers special put 1t.
Next November the people OF this
town will show their ''rebuke" by
Democratic majority at the polls.
Every Democrat sustained Mr.. O'kane
in challenging Mr.. Elkins' vote In 1870.
The Democratic party instructed Mr.
O'Kane upon that occasion. Mr.. BIZ
kins swore that he had claimed this as
his residence for six years, when In
reality he only moved here in the spring
of $500. DAN TUCKER.

writes: IF l had all the health and

That such conduct should be sanctioned
by Church bearing the name Of Chris

TRYING TO SQUEEZE GUTENBERG
Manager Carr Tells the Story
Briefy-What Officials Say on
the Subject.

1t Is not true that the closing Of the
race track on Monday and Tuesday was
due to fear of indictment upon the part
of the managers. On Sunday the track
was ploughed and possibly through
neglect was left In that condition. The
ridges froze on Sunday night, and IL was
impossible to race ON Monday. Before
the track could be put in condition the
blizzard covered the ruts with snow ana
put an end to racing for a few days. An
army of several hundred Italians was put
10 work and racing was sumed yester-
day.
AS to the statement published In the
New York Morning Advertiser of yester-
day that Judge" Lockwood had a num-
Der of complaints before him and was
about to proceed against the managers
aud others connected with the track.
Justice of the Peace Lockwood last night
said to a reporter for II NEWS that he
knew absol utely nothing about the mat
ter. He was very indignant and refused
TO be questioned.
the same reporter that he had the best of
reasons to believe an effort. perhaps
backed by the Board Of Control, was be-
ing made TO arouse sentiment against

them into the support Of the pro.

winter in the Legislature restricting
racing Upon each track TO thirty DAYS in "a
year, which would practically squeeze
the small tracks out of existence. For
the past week or SO, several Pinkerton
men and Constable Graham, too, had eX-
cited the suspicious of the race track de-
,eeuives, aud Mr.. Carr is of the opinion
that II no complaints have been lodged
before Justice Lockwood, they have been
lodged before some other Justice Of the
Peace. d. d. Withers, he said, who is a
member of the Board of Control, had
threatened to expend $100, 600 In his Efforts
10 close the Gutten berg track.
In the interview Mr.. Carr recited the
facts already published concerning the
closing of Monmouth, Elizabeth, Linden
and Clifton tracks; how, when Mr.. With
crs decided to cut out the wires at Mon
mouth, it brought the New York City
pool sellers into the fight with the conse-
quent arrests, indictments and fines, how
the same fate overlook Elizabeth and
Linden tracks, and the closing OF the
Clifton track followed rs a result Of a
political fight.
COUNTY CLERK M'LAUGHLIN's STATEMENT.
County Clerk Mclaughlin said this
morning the Board of Control was IN.
doubtedly trying to give the Gutenberg
managers trouble. There was absolutely
no truth in the or that the tracks were
closed Monday and Tuesday for fear of
Indictment. 1t was owing altogether 10

BRIDGEToN, Jan. s. 1S92-In conse-
auence of the many delinquent taxpayers
here the city has decided to take sum-
mary measures. The Legislature of 1890
passed a law which provides that a city
Collector may issue warrants for the sale
of personal property for delinquent taxes,
and further that when no personal
property. subject to such sale can
be found in the city, hen in the
case Of poll tax and tax assessed
on personal property, the officer holding
the warrant shall take the body Of the Of
fender and the Sheriff shall keep him in
custody until the tax is paid. with inter
est and costs.
The Finance Committee of the City
Council has directed Collector Lewis Ii.
Dowdney to proceed under this act.
n issue warrants for the collec-
ton OF delinquent taxes for the years
1883 and 1889. Much curiosity is ex-
pressed as to who will be the first I'M
lucky individual. Unless the arrest of a
few brings the others to terms, Cumber-
lands jail will not suffice to hold one
tenth OF the bridgetonians who owe DOLL
taxes.
