diers. He said that the board only wanted
Sio.0l0 a present and thu rest in 1897.
Mr.. Howell. of Fulton, believed that to
make this appropriation was the right
thing to do. lie did not see how any man
could vote against the bill. The monument
slould be erected to mark the first battle
ieid i'm Georgia. If those states which
-lre not victorious have appropriated $780,
eco for the erection of monuments to their
heroes. what should Georgia do when her
men composed the greater part of the vic
torious army on that famous battle ground?
If we do not do this. he argued. when for
eigners are visiting this country they VIII
see the national park. and also see the
monuments erected in memory of the north
ern heroes and will ask the question. what
army was victorious in this battle? The
answer will be the southern army, and then
the question will he: what b9ye they done
TO commemorate it?"

The ST. Louis GlObe-DemOcrat touches
about the only point there is in this
third term talk, which. would lead any
one TO take &c seriously. Il says;
Everybody knows Cleveland could
not be either coaxed or bulldozed into
giving any quarter under any circum-
stances to the silver vnlainy. Every
body is not quite so certain that the 9th
or sound money men. Republicans aud
Democrats. mentioned in connection
with the candidacy would be 50 inhex-
IDLE. This has been the secret OF Cleve-
lands success with the conservative
classes Of the community.
This IS really the foundation Of third
term seriousness. 1t will be noted that
The suggestion comes from the Republi-
can SIDE. the Globe Democrat being one
OF the ablest and most prominent Re
publcan journals Of the West. IL looks
AS if many OF those Of that party itself
were becoming discouraged at the fail
pre of their own leaders TO meet this
issue. and were looking TO Cleveland as
q help to them in their difficulty. IL is
hut another signal tribute 70 this brave
true and great American.

The excitement in the SisterSville

cation i'm yesterday mornings Resister
Of the fact that the Dye-BrOoks No. 2

The profits of John Wanamaker in
his big Philadelphia store last year are
estimated from conservative and in
teligent source to have reached $4,000
600.
This seems incredible, but they are
doubtless enormously large. 1t is to
be remembered in estimating them that
John Wanamaker's store represents
what used TO be included in from one to
Two hundred smaller stores. It has
something more than the natural COM
bined profits Of all these. 1t is practi-
caly without effective competition in
that city. Its goods are bought in
large quantities and experienced buyers
are employed 10 watch the market and
take any advantage to make favorable
purchases. It is altogether probable
that goods are thus procured in great
bulk often at prices far below their
value. which leaves an immense mar
gin for profit upon them.

Council at its meeting tonight should
not fail 10 take favorable ac-
ton on the proposition Of the
Board of Public Works to purchase a
powerful and heavy steam roller for
street paving purposes. Such a contri-
vance is essential If Wheeling is TO be
at all up to the times in the matter Of
street paving, or, indeed, if all OF our
streets are to be paved in modern style
during the life Of this generation.
BY the use Of the latest machinery
other cities have successfully solved
the great problem Of street paving at
reasonable cost of time and money.
Wheeling can do the same if Council
will give proper attention to the sub
ject: and the first requisite IS a heavy
steam roller that will give the best re-
suits with dirt, gravel and macadam,
and which. also. will give US a proper
foundation for our otherwise excellent
brick pavement
Had we had such a continuance to
roll the foundations Of our present
brick pavements there would not now
be such wide room for improvement
for repairs Of holes and sinks and IN
even places. in which our paved streets
unfortunately abound, because the
pavements were not laid over the proper
foundations 20 begin with.
