HERE is the succlent manner

HERE is the succlent manner IN
which Joel Heatwole defines a
partisan: ''There are two kinds of
partisans; one is q partisan from
conviction, and the other is a
partisan by inheritance or force Of
surrounding circumstances. The
partisan from conviction arrives at
his conclusions by reading party
papers and listening to party
speeches. But mind you, his
study has been confined to the
principles in which he believes,
and there is q question whether or
not he does not mistake in looking.
through only one pair of glasses.
He looks at politics from a certain
standpoint, and has given the
claims Of the other party but little
if any attention. Such a man is
generally susceptible to the in
tluences which the well-informed
missionary might bring to bear.
He is anxious to do just what is
right, and will listen to argument
The shrewd political worker will
attack such men by regular ap-
proaches, and do it with great
deal of patience and perseverance;
and by persistent effort they may
be made to understand what is
right and why things should be
different. A PARTISAN by inherit
ance cannot be reached by argu-
ments because he can assign no
reason why he aAiliates with his
party. An eminent jurist once
said: If a man holds an opinion
without reason, you cannot reason
him out of it, Argument goes
for little with a man whose con-
victions have come without argu-
ment. His politics are fixed by
his associations and by the accident
OF birth and not by knowledge.
Such man is sometimes accused
by his better informed partisan
brothers Of selling out to the op-
position for few paltry dollars.
But the true political evangelist
scorns the idea of making converts
by purchase. The two kinds given
above are the ones with whom the
political parties must deal with.
They must try to show the former
that his conclusions are not based
upon correct ideas, and they must
make an earnest effort to convince
the latter that there is something
more than family connection or
inherited prejudices that should
command his vote in an election.
The coming canvass will give the
politicians an opportunity to do
their best in their endeavors to
make conversions among the
classes we have described"

THE ELECTRIC LIGHT PLANT.
The Control of the Matter Given to the
Gas Trustees.

The Control of the Matter Given to the
Gas Trustees.
A resolution, offered by Mr.. Robert
son, in the Second Branch, authorizing
the Board of Gas Trustees to assume
control of the electric light plant, until
the further order of Council, was
adopted by that body. When it came
up in the First, Mr.. Farrell wanted TO
know what was the matter with the
Electric Light Commission, and moved
to lay on the table.
MIR. Robinson explained the matter,
saying the time was approaching when
the city would have TO employ men TO
run the plant, ETC., and it would be best
to allow the Trustees to control 1t, as
they would have to run it in the
future. The Commission ought not to
emploNthe men, as IL was only consti-
tuted TO construct. No more officers
| were needed.
Mr.. Farrell rather thought the cleo
trio plant ought to be kept separate
| from the Gas Works. He wanted TO
| have IL under separate Board, and
| had been contemplating a move in that
direction for some time. AT the same
time, he wanted 1t understood he was
not an applicant for a place.
Mr.. Emsheimer thought the idea OF
putting the Gas Board in control was
eminently proper, because the Gas
Board had TO pay the whole bill, and
ought to manage what they paid for.
They were as'capable Of hiring expert
| electricians as anyone.
Mr.. Robinson pointed out that when
the loan was voted, it was with the dis
tiact understanding that the gas works
was to have charge of it, and on that
basis they agreed to pay for it. Now to
come in here with talk about a new
Board is ridiculous-it is breach OF
faith. We want no more Office"
The resolution was unanimously
adopted, and there will not be a new
| Board.
Wheeling register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1878-1935, 1892-02-24

The city ought to have something for
the franchise she had given. Under
Mr.. Pollock,s resolution, the city gave
away everything, keeping nothing for
itself. The idea seemed 10 be to have
the city do all the conceeding, and the
Company none.
On motion OF Mr.. Wilson, DR.. Camp
BELLS resolution was then taken up by
sections. In section one, Mr.. Wilson
moved to strike out "engine houses"
and ''City Building" DR.. Campbell
thought it would be better TO cut off the
the work-house and leave the Public
Building on. As for the school houses,
be would admit they wasted gas fear
fully. Mr.. Wilson consented to this
suggestion, and "engine houses" and
'work-house" were struck off, leaving
free gas to the crematory and City Hall.
The second clause was adopted, cut
ting off the schools at the end Of the
present school year.
In the third clause, Mr.. Wilson moved
to strike out the word permanently"
as applying to the schools. This was
agreed to. MIR. Wilson then incorpor-
ated sentence to the effect that II, in
the future, the Company should have a
sufficient supply of gas, it should again
furnish II free.
The fourth clause was allowed to
stand.
The paper was then referred to the
Natural Gas Commission, without de-
bate, which means at least one more
seance.

THE FIRST FIRE
At the TiItonvilIe Sanitary Pottery Great
Success.


The first kiln of sanitary ware was
drawn at the Western Sanitery Pottery
at Tiltonville yesterday and was a great
success, there not being more than SIX
pieces of small ware defective. they
were three each of short hopper traps
and three round closets, and this NAV
be called a phenomenon to the trade.
The same result has not occurred al
any other pottery in the United States.
AT Trenton. y. J., and at Tifin, o., on
the first kilns there were enormous
losses.
The cause of there being so much in
terest taken in the drawing OF the klins
is that the workmen do not receive pay
for any defective product coming out OF
the kilns. No place in this country mas
come out as successful as this nrm,
which is due TO the management OF MI
Rowe, General Manager, and Mr.. Mack
lin. Assistant General Manager. An
other kiln will be burnt next week, and
then a gloss kiln will be placed, and
then the ware put on the market. Al
ready sufficient orders have been re-
ceived from Pittsburg, Chicago ana 81.

NATURAL GAS.
The Question of a Settlement Once More
Referred to the Commission.

The Question of settlement once more
Referred to the Commission.
The natural gas matter came up in
the First Branch, Captain Bachelor,
President. and General Manager Heard,
of the Gas Company, and MesSrs.
George Il. aud Alfred Caldwell and w.
Ii. Hearne, of counsel for the Company
being present. The brief report Of
the Committee, returning the papers
without recommendation, being read
and ordered filed, Mr.. Pollock offered a
resolution almost Identical with that
laid before the Branch by him at the
last previous meeting, providing that
the water works was to be cut of from
gas from date, and the gas works, the
City Hall and the crematory after Sep
TENDER 18th, and the school houses after
the end Of the school year.
Speaking TO his resolution, Mr.. Pol
lock said he knew many citizens thought
the Company ought to be held up to its
contract, whether il could fulfill 1t or
not, and they certainly had right 10
their opinion, bat the gas consumers
were perfectly willing to let the Com
pany off, provided the present price OF
l5c per 900 cubic feet be not increased.
That, he thought, was the sentiment OF
large majority of the people-only a
few were disposed to insist upon the
pound of flesh.
Mr.. Farrell moved that sections 5
and Of the existing natural gas or
dinance be read, and when this had
been done Mr.. Farrell said. he thought
the substitute which had sbeen offered
for that ordinance was very poor one;
the city had better stick to the original
bargain.
DIR. Campbell said he did not want
either pound of flesh, nor an ounce,
nor a grain. He thought middle
course could be found upon. which both
sides could agree. He was willing to
grant the Gas Company relief, but not
to the full limit asked. He offered the
following:
~. That the Gas Company furnish free
gas 10 the crematory, the City Building,
engine houses and work-houSe.
40. Free gas 10 be furnished the schools
during the present school year.
IS. All other departments to which gas
is furnished free, 10 be permanently cut
of after this year.
-. The Gas Company, IN consideration
Of these concessions, agrees not to raise or
attempt to raise the price Of gas 10 consul
mers above the price stipulated in the or
6inance."
Mr.. Emsheimer moved to table Mr..
Pollock's resolution. Lost: ayes, 3,
noes, 10, the former Messrs. Emsheimer,
Farrell and Zarnitz.
DR.. Campbell then got his resolution
before the body as a substitute for Mr..
Pollock's resolution; and upon this Mr..
Pollock said he did net seek to appear
as the especial champion OF the Gas
Company; he only wanted to do what
was right. II the Company was simply
wing about the supply of gas, he would
favor the old contract; but il they were
telling the truth, the city could not ex-
pect them TO perform an impossibility.
de thought the officers were telling the
truth, and il so, new settlement would
be q good thing.
Mr.. Emsheimer thought DR.. Camp
BELLS resolution, cutting of the water
works and gas works, was sufficient
compromise on the part Of the city.

COULD sPuRGEoN HAVE BEEN sAvEpl

COULD sPURGEON HAVE BEEN SAVED
LONDON, Feb. ~ Considerable excitement
has been occasioued By the report that Rev.
Charles II. Sturgeon before his death pleaded
with bis physicians 10 adninister Warner $
Safe Cure which he had previously used with
graf benefit. The doctors refused and thieat-
eued TO aoaadon the case. Friends OF the
family are said TO be very indignant.
Here was grand life, whose words have been
read and whose influence has been felt by mil
lions and yet permitted to 90 to the Great Here
after when his teachings might have been pro-
lopged; his life might have been saved.
1t is refreshing TO think that there are other
noble preachers, both abroad and in America,
who are alive to-day but who might have been
in their graves had it not beeh for the wonder
full remedy which Mr.. Sturgeon longed to take
and which they did take and were saved.
The Rev. Francis McCammon OF the Nsnse,
cambridge, like the Rev. Mr.. Sturgeon, was
brought to the gates OF death. lie said: 81 had
been thinking for some time OF using warner
Safe Cure, but my medical man dlssuaded me
| from so doing. However, gradually got worse,
| and being AT last told by him that 1 could not
| recover resolved 10 try this great remedy.
| / am happy TO say that the result OF the use OF
three bottles is most remarkable, indeed lncred-
! ible, and realize that shall be able 70 ENJOY
| life for years TO come
The Rev. George Waterman, Berwyn Lodge
| Broadstone. Wimborne, England, said: IL owe
| my present health. even my life, under God, TO
! the use OF Warmers Safe Cure. During nearly
/ two wears | had been under the treatmentof
one Of our most celebrated London physicians,
| but at last he gave me % understand that he
| could do nothing more for me. At that time
| Providence directed me to tcy Warmers Safe
| Cure the use OF which ! continued until ! am
! rejoiced 70 say | am entirely cured. i have
recommended this great remedy ever since my
! recovery and in no single case has II failed to
! effect complete cure
The Rev Edward Wilson, D. D., Bishop OF
Ottawa. Canada, says: 81 have found War
| ner's Safe Cure the most valuable and effcacious
remedy have ever tried. Indeed, one cannot
well express the experimental sense OF Its bene'
! fetal action. IL is like cham, soothing. re-
| neying and building up so quickly. ind that
renewal after an interval OF cessation rs very
advantageous and do SO whenever l think II
needed"
The sad hearts who mourn to-day the I'M
timely death OF Mr.. Sturgeon may cherish his
teachings but ca not recall his life He has gone
and his death is both lesson and warning.
Had he followed his own Judgment IN his physl.
cal life as ne did his conscience in his spiritual
affairs he would probably be alive to-day TO
bless the world with his teachings ana inspire
by his presence! May this not be lesson TO
YOU? May you not also require shelter from
the great bodily dangers which surround you!
Can you afford TO neglect the warning!
