PECK ARRESTED.

Commissioner OF Labor PECK, OF New
York, has been arrested on the charge
of destroying the public records. This
is the outcome OF one Of the grossest
pieces Of political rascality ever at
tempted, even by Republican politicians.
PICKS report, clearly made at the
behest, If not actually by, the highly
protected interests in New York, pre-
tending to show an increase in wages
since the passage Of the Mckinley bill,
has been sent broadcast over the land
by the Republican campaign committee,
and every Republican organ in the
country has harped on it ana attempted
TO make capital out Of it.
1t not only bore the stamp Of false
hood on IT'S face to intelligent minds,
but PEcK's own language in pri-
vate letter written several months be-
fore, proved that he had substituted
a dishonest report in the interest Of the
Republican party in place Of the sta
tistlcs which he had actually gathered,
and which he IS now accused of having
deliberately burned to conceal a crime
against the people.
His arrest yesterday is probably the
first step toward landing Mr.. PECK in
the penitentiary.

NOT YET DECIDED.
Counsel for Delbrugge Again Apply to
the Supreme Court

Yesterday morning the REGISTER re-
cited the fact that Judge Lucas, of the
Supreme Court Of Appeals, had for
mally denied the application for writ
in the Delbrugge -McNicholls case, and
added that this settled the matter con-
cluSively. II appears that it is not set
tied, for yesterday counsel Tor Mr.. Del
brugge renewed the application TO the
full Court, and it will come up in the
regular way, upon the brief filed. Last
evening Col Arnett, OF counsel for
plaintiff, stated that the decision Of
Judge Lucas was chiefly upon the point
that while the Committee had no au-
thority to finally accept the resignation,
still Capt. Delbrugge had entered into
an agreement with the Committee as to
certain matters, and failing to keep his
part of the agreement, could not there
after withdraw his resignation. The
Colonel added that the trouble was. as
their side of the case contended, that
although there was such an agreement,
the Committee had no power to enter
into such q compact, and that, there
fore, the agreement was void as to both
parties, and Delbrugge had right TO
withdraw the paper at any time before
it had been accepted by Council.

HON. W. L. WILSON.

The effort to defeat VIM. L. WILSON
for Congress In the Second district is
assuming as vicious form as that put
forth in 1888, when it was on the pro-
gramme Of the Republican National
Committee to knock him out. The pow
ers had decreed then and have again is
sued the decree that his head must
come of at any cost, and all the ener-
gies Of all the Republican committees
are bent 10 that end.
Mr.. WILSON is one Of the ablest, most
highly esteemed members in Congress.
His reputation as a scholar, statesman
and Democratic controversialist of
eminence is confined only by the bounds
Of the United States.
For these reasons the Republicans
want his scalp. lie makes it very hot
for the Radical leaders all over the
country, and his usefulness in Congress
20 the Democratic party and the whole
people must be stopped, because his
teachings are inimical to the interests
OF the favored few who lead the Repub-
lic&n hosts for their own special benefit
Democrats and independent voters OF
the Old Second district, you who admire
capacity, honesty and fairness, as you
hate and shun the dishonest and cor
rupt methods of the enemy, do you pro-
pose TO submit to the infamous methods
to defeat your noble staDdard-bearer?
The REGISTER mistakes the stuff you
are made Of il you do.

A BIG SUCCESS.
The Nineteenth Anniversary of a Popular
Restauranter.

Restauranter.
Nineteen years ago to-day Mr. Martin
Thornton opened a modest restaurant,
upon popular plan, on the east
side of Market street, in a small
house on the site now occupied
by the Hibberd building. He came
to this city stranger and a poor
man, but he saw the pressing need here
OF a restaurant where good meals could
be had for modest price, and he went
to work to fill that want. How well he
succeeded can be surmised when one
visits the model Hotel Brunswick, now
so successfully conducted under his ex-
perienced care at Nos. 1888, 1875 and
1877 Market street. Successful man
agement and the patronage OF the peo-
pie Of Wheeling and surrounding coun-
try has told, and to-day Mr.. Thornton, as
he celebrates with his friends the
nineteenth anniversary of the inaugura-
ton OF his business, can point 10
career without a rival In his line. Res
taurants were in operation in Wheeling
when Mr.. Thornton embarked in the
business. Dozens have been opened
during the nineteen years elapsing
since September II, 1873, but of them
all, not one has stood the test of time.
A few years has generally ended the
careers Of rivals, but Martins goes
right on. Always enterprising-always
improving his surroundings-always in
creasing the circle OF his friends and
patrons, Mr.. Thornton now has, at the
Brunswick Hotel, one Of the best places
of accommodation in all this part of
the country, and all the comforts and
necessities OF the public are supplied
at a minimum Of cost. 1t is the hotel

very lowest calculation they will
have l00 members in the next house
in addition to a number of Repub-

pledged to Alliance or Peoples par
ty principles. They calculate that
they are going to dictate the selec-

the policy of the house. The Peo-
ple's party managers in Washing
ton deny the story published in a

they have a secret oath-bound order
known as "Band of Gideon. They
say that there may be an unauthor-
lied order of that sort, but there is
no such order known to them.

Stop and Think, Young Man.

What are your plans for the fu-
ture Do you aspire to a home of
your own, or to be serf or rent
er and give a large share Of the pro-
ducts of your labor to some man
who has the LAWFUL TITLE to the
land |?
If you want home, how do you
expect to get it? Can you find
profitable employment? +? How much
can you earn and save in a
year? How many years will it take
you to earn a farm? Suppose you
can earn 500 per year. Starting
at 81 years of age, at 26 you will
have the princely sum Of $500.
Now look about and find farm.
One worth less than $4,000 would
not be worth having. Pay your
$500 down, and give mortgage for
81 500-and now your trouble COM
mences. You are 26 years of age.
If not already married, it is time
you were. How much money will
it take to buy teams, cows and pigs,
to start farming with, and how
much to commence housekeeping
with ? You will be compelled to
make debt of at least $500 for
these necessary expenses. You
cannot get money without paying
8 per cent. on $4,000:
$3.50 per annum. Look around you
and see how many farmers with $2,-
600 mortgages on their farms are
paying them off; then you can de.
eide whether it would be safe to
buy farm. "a
How would it look with interest at
2 per cent. I Intererest on $4,000,
$40-a saving of $1,000 in ten
years, on interest alone.
Fall in line, young man, and vote
with the People, if you ever expect
to own a home. L. j. f.

Fields Strong Point.
From Chicago News Record.

=
WAsHlNGroN. D. c., Aug. l5.-
The Farmers Alliance and Peo-
ple's party are figuring on electing
the vice-president this fall. They
do not claim that they will elect
both Weaver and Field, but they
figure out that they are bound to
elect Field to the vice-presidency.
"Ifeel," said Chairman McCune,
of the executive committee to-day,
"that Fields election is practically
assured. He is bound to be elected
if the election of the president is
thrown into the house, which is
very likely to happen. The house
would, of course, elect Mr.. Cleve-
land to the presidency. Then the
senate would have to select the vice.
president from the three candidates
who had received the highest num-
Der of votes at the polls. The con-
stitution prohibits the president and
president both coming from the
same state, and the house
having chosen Mr.. Cleveland first,
Mr.. Reid would be rendered ineligi-
Bile. The Republican senate would
therefore be compelled to choose be-
tween Mr.. Stevenson and MI Field,
and there is little room for doubt
that they will select the latter"
