Hill Couldn't Work II.

One OF HIPS boldcst schemes has
been knocked in tho head, and Demo-
Gratis havo done it for him. 1t was in
tho contested election case OF Moves VS..
Rockwell. To make the blow as hard
as possible, the case Is from Hills own
congressional district, and the sitting
Democrat who is to DO thrown out by
his Democratic colleagues took his scat
or certificate OF election signed by
David 3. Hill, governor.
The case was so plain that Rockwcll's
friends urged him to decline to accept
the stolen seat. Hills henchmen had
stolen tho seat and Hill, who was pres
emily to be in Washington as senator,
urged him to hold on, promising to see
Rockwell safely through. Hill did all
he could to make his promise good,
even to tho extent OF threatening DEM
ocratic members OF tho elections COM
mittce.
It is to the credit OF those Democrats
that they refused to endorse tho fragrant
fraud oven toobligo apresidency-hunter
OF their own party. The elected Rcpub.
lican is to DO seated and the defeated
Democrat sent homo to find what COM
fort David Bunco Hill may be ablo to
provide for him. Thus endoth another
chapter in tho stained record OF noto-
rious political blacklog.

The INTELLlGEScER knew tho above
statements to be untrue. To prove
them untrue the INTELLlGENcER pub
lishcd interviews with Wheeling mer-
chants, named the merchants and set
tho Register wild.
Now the Register wants to bet on q
sido issue. The INTELLIGEHcER's i'm
preston is that 4 public question can
DO discussed without gambling on it.
Ii the Register doesn't thinl. so it may
gamble with itself.
The point OF the discussion, so far as
the public is able to see it, is that Mr..
Mcmillan and tho Register do not tell the
truth about prices and the effect OF the
Mckinley tariff on them. This point
is clearly established by reputable
merchants OF Wheeling whom every
body knows, some Republicans, some
Democrats.
II the Register wants to make u good
point for its party let it prove that
these merchants do not tell the truth.
That is the aim OF its idle contention,
but desire however strong is not proof
by 4 long shot.

A SUSPICIOUS ROOM.


Not TINT They Love Mckinley More, but
that They Have othor Ends to Serve.
Pittsburgh Dtpaica! Eal.
Areport comes from Washington that
an organized and active boom is to DO
stated TO make William Mckinley, OF
Ohio, tho Republican nominee for Pros
ident. ,..I.
The Dispatch has frequently said that
next to James G. Blaine Governor Nc
kinloy Is the logical and ideal candidate
Tor the presidency. Flo is the rccog-
nizcd leader OF his party on the tariff
question, q man OF unimpoachablo
character, and oven moro than tho usual
fairness to his opponents. Flo repre-.
senta the Republican policy OF protoc-
ton; and his latest political victory was
to carry Ohio for tho Republican party
aftor 1t had been supposed by previous
elections to BIO placed in the list OF
Democratic states.
Nevertheless. the reported Mckinley
boom is placed under cloud by tho
suspicion as to the motives OF those
who are pushing it. There is very
strong reason that the explanation OF
this boom is duo to the fact that certain
politicians do not love NIclkinlcy's
virtues more, but that they love tho
Harrison disponsation less. This might
not detract from Mckinloy's strength il
he is put in tho race to win; but the
public may BIO chary OF rallying about
him il he is putup for the purpose OF
securing good terms for his hackers.
Ono piece OF. advice is certainly per-
tinent to tho Mckinley boomers, and
that is to mako sure OF their candidate.
Mr.. Mckinley was understood to say
last year that he would not oppose
Harrison, and he has heretofore given
evidence that when he says no to a
presidential nomination, he means no.

Tho shutting down OF factories in In

is decidedly suggestive OF the be-

for tho time OF abundant gas to locate

added, but when the gas has gono there
will come an industrial tug OF war.
Wheeling can get along without nat
ural gas because she has an abundance
OF good coal on the spot. When in the
