The great strike centering in Chi
cago is still on, though the opinion
prevails in many quarters that
the end is near. The leaders of the
strike in their insane zeal threaten
ed yesterday to call out all the
trades unions in Chicago numbering
200, 900 men ifthe Pullman Company
did not concede to the demands OF
its men. This is not likely to sue
coed and if it should, demonstrates
the utter lack of foresight and the
INSCRIPTIONS character of the men
who head the organizations.
These conspirators who rarely
take step without violating the
law are loud in their dennnciations
of the law that puts federal troops
in the way of the rioters and incendi-
aries who have been waptonly des-
troying property and numbering in
nocent people in Chicago.
Their course has alienated public
sentiment from their cause. 1t has
injured the cause of the honest work
ingman and will prove serious
blow to organized labor
That the strike gives evidence of
being failure is shown by the fact
that passenger traffic was resumed
on nearly all lines into Chicago yes
terday and the threat to order out
all the unions is the last kick of
desperate men who realize that their
cause is lost
1t was a mistake from the start,
it was inaugurated at the most in
opportune time possible, even the
employees of the Pullman shops with
whom the strike originated had no
grievance. The A. r. U. was not
concerned in any way whatever, its
participation is simply that of sym
patty.
When INSCRIPTIONS incompetents
come into possession of such power
by accident they invariably use it
to the disadvantage of those they
represent. Debs is no exception to
the rule. Such demagogues endan-
ger republican institutions and al
ways array the country against
them and their cause. The lawless-
ness of the past few days has been
such that it became necessary to
invoke the aid of the Federal govern
ment and yet Debs thinks his move
is righteous one and if the peo-
| pie don't endorse him he will infiict
further loss and misery by stopping
tens of thousands more men from
work and thus add to the depression
in business and the widespread dis
tress that already prevails
The workingman deserves and has
the sympathy of the people. 1t is
particularly unfortunate that he
should have the credit for the state
of anarchy that recently prevailed
in Chicago and was brought about
by Debs' desire for notoriety
1t is unfortunate in all respects.
1t not only entails loss on all bust
ness interests but will permanently
injure the cause of labor that it was
intended to benefit.

an annual tribute of millions of dol

DEAR CHARLEY:
ran across an article in the
State Journal setting forth the ad-
vantages of the United States and
West Va, in general, and Braxton
county and its county seat in partic-
ular and becoming interested read
on, but like patent medicine al it
turned out to be something else.
1t seems that you have evolved a
scheme for us to carry w. Va. I'm
always in for that. We've carried it
time and again, except on election
day, so you see we're way ahead.
We carry it 364 days in the year
and the Democrats only one.
Anybody who isn't hog ought
to be satisfied with that.
You say, 1--WE cannot fail"
That's right
We never did.
III carry it and my boys will
watch me up to the 18th day of No.
vember.
III let somebody else carry it that
day because I'll be tired, but I'll
take hold again next day and carry
it for year.
The next thing that caught me
is your able remark about "bur-
dens." I'll quote it in full: "Let it
be remembered that in some sec
tions the burden is harder to bear
than in others"
You bet it is.
It's hard here.
Since the Democrats made money
so scarce / can't hear a word from
Steve Elkins and I've written him a
dozen times.
This tariff bill has ruined my in.
dustries.
And as you very aptly remark our
opponents Twill be well provided
with DOODLE"
OF course they will.

That's the stuff.
Appoint me.

of all, you say in your appeal to the

Noble words.
They are.

DEAD HORSES
Cannot be Removed From Chicago on
Account Of the Blockade.

CHICAGO, July S-One of the most
serious aspects of the strike from
the standpoint of the city officials is
that horses are dying in the city at
the rate of from seventy five to one
hundred day, and there is alb
solutely no way of removing them
from the city. For days train load
of these carcasses has stood at
Thirty eighth street,on theMichigan
Central, consigned to the Pan Han
die, which is to carry them to the
establishment of the Union Render
ing Company. The carcasses are
fostering in the sun, and the health
of the community is seriously threat
ened. The same is true in other
places where these carcasses are left
because the city cannot remove them

Baseball Club Organized-SOme Good
Games Booked.

There is no doubt but that the
baseball craze has again struck
Morgantown, and has come to stay.
1t has long been recognized as the
National game and one of the sports
that like horse racing will not down.
A number of our progressive young
men who are determined that Nor
gantown shall keep up with the pro-
cession held a meeting Monday
night and organized a baseball club
with the following officers and play
ers.
Manager, B. H. MADEIRA; Secre-
tary, Walter MADEIRA; Treasurer.
Will Morgan; Captain, Will Hayes.
Players, Will Hayes, inf, Charlie
johnson, b., Dave Reay, 8 B., c. R.
Huston, B., Tom Pastorius. 8. s.,
Logan Casseiberry, rf., Lee Lewelien,
IT,, Frank Rich, c., Jake Hewitt, p,
substitutes Henry Hayes, Fred
Davis, Bert Lawhead, Arthur Dor
sey. The above will probably be
the make up ofthe club and the po-
sitions the players will occupy, but
it is the intention of the management
to retain only the best players 10 the
club and to secure any player who
shows himself better than those all
ready selected. There was a bust
ness meeting of the officers last night
A challenge was sent TO the Union
town club to play here Saturday
July IA, but no answer has as yet
been received, anyway, there will a
game on that date with another club
If Uniontown can not come up. The
Grafton club will be here Saturday,
July 81.
The young gentlemen who are At
the head ofthe affair are determined
to have first class organization and
secure dates with the best clubs in
this state and the neighboring towns
In Pennsylvania.

THE TREE FELL
AND SEVEN LITTLE,CHILDGEN MAR
ROWLY ESCAPED DEATH.
Miraculous Escape Of Little Folks Who
We're Playing Under A Tree.
Charlastnn Gazntta


About 2 o'clock yesterday after
noon, while seven little children were
sitting in a hammock in Capt. Jim
Woodward's yard on Capitol street,
one of the trees to which the ham
mock was attached broke off near
the ground and fell. 1t was large
stub of tree that looked sound on
the outside, but was really rotten
and broke very easily under the
heavy weight.
In falling it struck little six-year-
old Willis Wilson, injuring her
shoulder. One of Mr.. Eskew's little
boys was slightly scratched, and lit
tie three year-old Mamie Wilson had
part of her hair cut off close to her
head as neatly as though it had been
done with a razor.
The big tree in falling had mar
rowly missed crushing all the little
ones beneath it's trunk. 1t was al
most a miraculous escape. Dr. Cot
ton dressed Willis Wilson's injured
shoulder, and does not think the in
jury is of very serious nature.
