THE ICE PLANT AND THE
VENEMOUS HE'LL HOUND.

THE ICE PLANT AND THE
VENEMOUS HE'LL HOUND.
We copy the following from
the World Of NJ ay 23d, in
reference to our suggestion of an ice
plant to the electric light works of
Martinsburg.
The latest fake promise of the
Republicans is an ice plant, in con
nection with the electric light plant"
We want to say to the editor of
the World that all our efforts for the
establishment of enterprises in Mar
tinsburg has never had any connec-
ton with 'fakes' or taking, and
that as between him and ourselves in
that particular, il he means to say
that our suggestion as to an ice plant
is fake, he is guilty of a deliberate
perversion. Some one who signs
himself a "Workingman," but whose
name, if it were known, and who
hasn't the courage to make himself
known, but hides himself behind the
gentility of a "W orkingman" would
be written venemous hell hound,
also attacks by way of political in
uendo our efforts to establish an ice
plant here. Come to the front, now,
Mr.. "Workingman" alias Mr.. Vene.
nous He'll Hound, and see if you
have responsibility enough about you
to publish your name and let the
people know who you are. Balaam's
ass had better bray; stick out your
tongue and let the public hear your
"toot." This town belongs neither
to Mr.. Wilson nor Mr.. Matthaei it
belongs to every Republican and
Democrat inside the corporate lin
its, and every man, woman and child
within those limits desires the estab-
lishment of every enterprise that
would benefit them, even to the
"Workingman0 who doesn't work.

Ign either You may just as well

q dastardly editor or orkingmanf

the INDEPENDENT with its sugges ion
as to an ice plant went to Senator
Faulkner in his committee room.
Mr.. I. e. Keller, OF Romney, a dem
ocrat, read the suggestion in the IN
DEPENDENT, and spoke of it to Mr..
Geo. H. Fl. Moore, ia Second ST.,
S. E., Washington, who las been
identified with ice plants. Mr.. Moore
wrote the editor of this paper on the
18th inst. We saw and conversed
with the president OF the electric
light plant, Mr.. Wilson. in reference
thereto and answered the letter.
This is the only connection Mr.. Will
son ever had with it. On May 22d,
we received another letter from Mr..
Moore giving an estimate for 6 and
IL ten plants and Offering to take
stock in either. The motive power
at the electric plant does not run
during the day, and certainly could
be utilized from sun up till sun sci
in making ice; but if the World edi.
tor and the so-called "Workingman'
are opposed to such an enterprise,
they are at liberty to suck their fin
gers with ice at 80 cents per hun
dred pounds. One thing is certain
this matter can lie over until after
the election and the editor Of the
World and the "Workingman" will
no doubt succeed in erecting plant
that will freeze the town out.
