A Splendid and Enthusiastic Reception
rendered by Citizens on Their Triumph
ant Return From sandusky.
Nearly 500 people gathered at the W.
& L. Z. depot last evening 20 welcome
the victorious fremen who came down
on the $50 train. No sooner had the
train come ia sight than cheer after
cheer assembled. AS the train pulled 10
at the depot the Burlington band, which
had been hired for the occasion,
struck up the music. As the boys got
off the cars, general handshaking en-
sued. After congratulations had been
extended, they started on a parade OF
the town. The band headed the pro-
cession, followed by the successful
running team in band wagon. The
Alert Hose Company came next, dressed
In their blue uniforms. The Hook and
Ladder boys followed them, then the
Liberty Hose Company and II. Burke
driving the Second ward reel. DR..
Shuttleworth followed in a buggy with
large banner with the figures 30
on il. When they got as
far as South Second street the whistles
OF the different works were blown.
They were given hearty cheers all along
the route. AS they came up Fourth
street the procession came 10 halt near
Hanover street, where crowd OF a
thousand people mad gathered. Here
Chief A. r. Oug made short speech TO
the crowd, stating how proud the citi-
Zens OF Martins Ferry should feel OF
the fremen who have beaten the worlds
record. He gave away TO Judge j. ).
Cochran who addressed them amid the
enthusiastic cheers or the crowd. Mr..
Cochran said If Martins Ferry was ever
proud of anything theyshouId be proud
of the Independent hose com any which
by its own work had raised money
enough to take the trip without the
asking Of aid from anybody.
He compIimented them on the good
name they had won on their trip and
the fine appearance they made, and end
ed his speech with the assertion that IT
was the crack team OF the earth. Mr..
Cochran's speech was received with
great applause. E. J. A. DrenneD re-
sponded in behalf OF the hremen. MIR.
Drennen thanked the people for
the ovation they had given them
also stating that the boys had not ex-
pected anything OF the kind. BE gave
q few of the details OF the race, stating
that the Independent boys were picked
upon from the first as the winners. He
also stated that there were claims OF n
snap nozzle after the race, as
some said they could not make
an attachment In two seconds,
which was done. This he said
was soon proven as the nozzle used was
handed TO the judges for examination
who passed II back with the remark
that there was nothing wrong with IT,.
Mr.. Drennen closed by stating that the
prize might easily oe sold but the
record Of twenty.nine seconds was not
for sale and that the boys stood ready
to defend IL. AS soon as 1t is beaten
they will be on the turf again TO dc
better. This concluded the speaking
after which three rouslng cheers were
given by the crowd.

4wonid beg 10 say, that il has now been

three weeks working ON plant cane, and
also hard ratoons, and IL Is giving me the
greatest satisfaction The more see OF
Its capabilities, the better pleased ] an

time, IN saving OF labor, higher extac-

II is shreddins from $50 10 400 tons of
cane every p hours with Ire greatest

quantity II necessary. 1t delivers the
shredded cane IN an even uniform iced
20 the three roller mlll, which receives it
without the intervention OF any labor,
and as the cane IS thoroughly shredded
or dlslutegrated 1t relieves the mill OF a
great deal OF strain, thus reducing the
liability OF broken shafts, gearing, etc.
There Is a saving of four ID men daily
on the mill, SIS only one man Is required
to regulate the amount OF cane delivered
by the carrier to the shredder, Tt has
Increased the extraction from 4 to
5 per cent
The economical I1se OF steam is gene
rally 3 serious consideration in adding
new machinery, as IN most mills the
boiler power is taxed TO its highest limit,
as IL was IN this mill, and any increased
demand necessitste6 an additional boil
er. But 1 find that the shredder and the
three roll mill engines combined use no
more steam than the three roll rain
engine did when working on whole cane,
while doing better work and more OF it.
and owing TO the Uniform feed on the
mill, the engine demands very little
attention,
The Megass from the shredded. &ne
makes superior fuel. and the freA N
have less difficulty IN maintaining UNI

will be pleased 30 have a call from
parties interested, as 1t is necessary %

Congressman Haugen OF Wisconsin
has introduced a resolution in the ma
tional house of representatives to insti-
,ute an investigation by the committee
on interstate and foreign commerce as to
government control or ownership Of rail-
roads, and ascertain the probability of
this scheme lessening the evils of the
present system. The dispatch says:
Mr. Haugen does not look for action
by the committee 10 the very near future
The magnitude OF the question forbids
that. Nor does he expect the commit
tee to discharge It's duty by any effort on
the part Of the individual members. 1t
is u matter for expert investigation, and
will necessarily consume much time and
labor. A report should be formulated
that will 20 long way toward settling
Tor stMe time to come the question OF
the feasibility Of government control in

vast railway interests as this.

Hot Springs Star: Sixty years ago the
democratic party was IN power with
General jackson at its head; it changed
our tariff system from protective to a
revenue basis, which within ten years
took sixty per cent. OF manufacturing
forces OF the country out Of the shops and
put it into the field. This resulted in an
oyer-production that reduced the west 10

The democratic house of representa-
tives after its stlgmatizing the senate
bill as everything evil and base surren-
der to the trusts, had to give up and
acknowledge itself beaten by passing the
bill, and it now awaits the signature of
President Cleveland, who characterized
the bill as one of perfidy, injustice and
dishonor. The lncompetency Of the
present democratic government has been
acknowledged by its most enthusiastic
friends.

When the government issues agreenoack

TO ne EiVor OF ne Rscis,s-:
SlE:-The Wheeling THtelligGccr, with
many assistants, is engaged ia the old
job Of defeating the Democratic party
in West Virginia again. Apparently
they have concentrated all their efforts
and force TO William l.. Wilson in the
Second Congressional district
It's amusing the effort of some OF these
so-called correspondents, the latest from
Mr.. e.. A. ID. familiar iuitials), who
writes for yesterdays issue OF that paper
an article dated Fairmont, which pro-
badly is his home, but just now l think
he is 10 be found nearer the protective
industries desk of the IptCihgGcCr His
laoored article is amusing, 10 say the
least Of TO-. He tells OF mud holes being
fued and the streets paved In Fair
mont and the corporate limits OF the
town being extended, and OF the coal
discoveries and the development OF 10,
and the building OF coke ovens, aud that
an this is the result Of protection.
Saws the people in 1872 voted for
change OF the protective policy OF Har-
rison, McKinley * Co.
Bus saws that now that it Is done "the
people regret it and won't do SO no
more. " He hold W. l.. Wilson up TO
view as the great sacrifice 20 be made
for an this, and promises that every
bodv will vote against him, even the
Democrats, because Of his true DemOc-
racv and because he dared do right.
\Vbv is this thus? q. A. ID. says it's
because the Wilson bill puts coal on the
free list. Suppose be did. Why should
he do otherwise? He says It will inJure
the hest interests OF the State, and es-
necisllv the Second Congressional Dis
frlct. and over and above all, the coal
miners and workers in the coal fields OF
the district. Please stick pin right in
this while digress for moment. VIII

ond District thereof, or any
where else, be kind enough

coast OF New England, the Pacific coast
aRd Galveston. Texas.
Iapurehend but little coal from West
Virginia, aud especially the Second dis
trict. ever reaches any OF those points
II there is any, the coal owner, opera
tor, dealer or miner has little interest
in the price it sells at. The railroad
agent who handles the coal from and
for the different roads running into the
coal fields regulates the prices without
reference or in regard to what the miner
receives for his wages, or what the coal
operator sells coal at the mine for.
Take for instance the agent Of the
Chesapeake and Ohio railroad. He
gives it out that he will pay IS cents
per ton for coal at the mine. The ope-
rator is helpless. He must take the
price or shut down. He has no other
market. If he could sell his coal, be
could neither obtain cars TO load nor
transportation for it after it was loaded.
II he don't sell coal to the agent he
don't sell at all What has tariff on
foreign coal to do with prices thus made
for the operator?
II the government puts a duty OF 3
cents per bushel, or IS cents per ton, on
coal, as it has done and is doing, it is
in the interests OF the railroads, and
nobody else. Can anyone deny or dis
pute any Of the above facts? ask,
why should VIM. L. Wilson or any other
patriotic citizen or Congressman be sac
rifced for standing between the mon
opolistlc railroad agencies and the man
ulacturers and other consumers OF coal
at these remote points whore coal comes
from other countries? Let them have
all the free coal they can get. Give
them cheap fuel for their mills, facto-
rles, ETC. If they can't obtain it from
our own coal fields, let them have it
from where it may be obtained. Our
West Virginia coal fields can find nearer
and better markets il they should
have TO cross the line into Canada for
il. What we want 10 to buy in the
cheapest and best markets we can find
and sell in the dearest. This is COM
mon sense and good law and what the
trainers OF the Constitution meant when
they made provision In the Constitution
for levying tax or duty on goods I'm
ported into the country for revenue
only. Respectfully
TARIFF REFORM.
