An Urgent Appeal for Further Aid to

An Urgent Appeal for Further Aid to
Misc Clara Barton.
New York, April 18.-Miss Clara Bar
ton, president of the Red Cross society;
cables to the national Armenian relief
committee that at Marash there are
5000 persons sick of :yphus; that the
sickness at Zeitoun is increasing, with
10 to so deaths daily, and that there
is great and immediate need OF funds.
The committee, in giving. out the cable
gram for publication says:
1--WE cannot refrain from reminding me
American people Of all classes and Sec
sacred fork Of relief only in response to the
urgent request of the public. and assur-
ances that the work would be generously
maintained to the end. Not one-fifth Of the
$500. 900 needed to carry on the relief work
on the smallest calculation made has yet
been given and yet the need and facilities
for carrying ON relief are greater than
ever. In fact, unless the people are aided
the various agencies will be practically
thrown away and thousands will newt
ably perish Of pestilence and starvation.
The Christianity and honor Of the Ameri-
can people Is at stake as well as the lives
Of the survivors Of the massacres, most Of
whom are helpless and innocent women
and children. It should be remembered
that by showing a lively interest in the
sufferers by literally supporting the agen-
cies at work for their relief is the best and
most efficient way OF securing for them
more considerate treatment at the hands
of the Turkish government. individuals.

GREAT STRIKE PLANNED.
Campaign for an Eight-Hour Day to Be
, gin May 1.

Campaign for m EiEht-Hour Day to Be-
p gin May 1.
Boston. April 17.-As result of the
cight-hour proclamation recently is
sued by the executive council of the
American Federation of Labor, plans
have been prepared for monster strike,
which is planned to extend to New
York. Philadelphia, Chicago. st. Lonis
and all the cities where the force of such
a move would be most keenly felt.
The strike will be for the enforce
ment of the eight-hour work day, which
is now refused. President Gompers and
Vice President Mcclure, of the Ameri-
can federation, will he here Sunday to
confer with the leaders. They have
been ascertaining the strength of the
unions, and advance reports from them
say that the unions are prepared finan-
cially.
The first move will be made in Bos-
ton. The carpenters have been selected
to make the test, and the refusa! of thci'
demand will be followed by an instant
strike in Boston. 1t can be safely pre-
dicted that at the least computation
10000 men will be involved in the strike,
and, if once started. the labor leaders
say it will tax theresources to the great
est to prevent such scenes as were en-
acted in Chicago, or still worse, as were
witnessed in the Homestead affair.

ECkELS ON FINANCE.
Synopsis Of His Latest Address, Delivered
Mt Cincinnati.

at Cincinnati.
Cincinnati, April 10. Hon. James
H. Eckels, comptroller of the currency,
addressed an audience of 1900 Cincin'
natl business men here Friday night.
Mr.. Eckels' address was on the sub
iect of national finances and the cur
rency and was in response to joint in
vitation of the chamber of commerce.
the Clearing House association and the
Commercial club of Cincinnati. He was
introduced by Mr.. j. B. Hearne, presi-
dent, OF the Third national bank, who
presented the speaker in few brief
and appropriate remarks. Mr.. Eckeis
took the stand at eight o'clock and
spoke for over two hours.
Mr.. Eckels said he had no sympathy
with that sentiment which sprang from
demagogy and misguided politics, that ex-
cluded the distinctively business man from
having q commanding voice in the settle
q business character. In the past there
had been too much fear of the hue and
cry Of noisy agitators and breeders OF
discomfort and strife on the part OF busi-
ness men and the result was the nation was
confronted with conditions that were a

agitations which had menaced prosperity
and Impoverished the citizen since the war.
At no time within the last 80 years had
such serious conditions confronted the
business world. The business depression
Of to-day was caused by legislation which
gave new power to the free silver advo-
Gates and placed larger burden on the
treasury's gold reserve without increasing
the nations gold or giving the secretary
additional power to protect the same
There never were so large investments OF
foreign capital in the United States as IN
the years Immediately preceding 1890
There never was so small ones as in the
years since that date. The silver legisla-
ton of that year accomplished what all
the other currency heresies and follies OF
three decades could not do. The American
business world to-day was witnessing tho
result of doubt and the lessening Of conf
dence in US on the part OF those who were
the country's strongest financial allies and
its greatest source of capital. The homo
investor was none tho less doubter ard
between them there was almost complete
commercial paralysis III every part OF the
country. The pernicious doctrine OF lat
ism and its kindred one of imitation caused
In the largest degree the continual looking
to congress for monetary relief. The first
essential to the return of prosperity was
the extinction Of the free silver fallacy.

Becoming Right Warm at ParkerS-
burg--A Review Of the Situation
in Both City and COunty-The Can
didateS.

Special to the Register.
ParkerSburg, March Fittings pO-
litically in this county, as we'll as the
city. are now becoming very interest
ing. In the city the Democrats have
nominated a splendid ticket. and in
harmonious manner are united and
working for good results, which will
doubtless be attained in this manner
On the other hand, the Republicans are
divided. especially the cOlored element,
as one of their race who aspired to the
nomination for Council in the Third
ward was turned down in the primary,
and hence the howl. The negroes
are very quiet about the treatment &C
corded them. and in an unnoticeable
manner are doing much to injure the
success of their party at next months
election
The voters will also vote on the prop
osition for issuing $4,000 worth of
bonds to purchase the old fair grounds
and improve the same, to be used as a
city park. The proposition was lost
at las, falls election by a small major
ity, and it is thought that on account
OF the splendid proposition offered the
city by President c. II. Shattnck, Of
the Citizens National Bank, who owns
the property, together with few other
individuals, that it will carry.
In the county the fight is centred on
the Sheriffalty nomination. On the Re-
publican side of the fence, J. LATE
Buckley, who held the Office one term
and who carried the county by the
largest majority ever known, when
elected, is in the-front ranks for the
nomination, which has already been
conceded him by the party leaders, who
claim that on account of the withdrawal
of w. r. Cook and j T. McMechen,
Mr. Buckley will capture the plum.
G. B. Gibbons also aspires to the nom
nation. and has a good following. The
Democracy are quiet as TO who they
will nut up for the Office, but several
candidates. any of whom would prove
a great hit for the Democrats, will be
brought out in a short time. and al
though the county is Republican, the
Democratic leaders are sanguine this
fall. as the large majority of the oppo-
site side was cut down over twO-thirds
at the last election.
Levin Smith, a rising young lawyer.
and a leader in political affairs on the
Democratic side. aspires to the nOmi-
nation for Prosecuting Attorney, and
he will no doubt be nominated, and If
he succeeds in the preliminary work
necessary TO have his name on the
ticket. his election is assured, on &C
count of his popularity.

FOR the State Authorship Candidacy.
To the Editor of the Register.
Weston, w. Va, March 10, 1S96.-As
the fall election is approaching, l OBJ
serve a good many communications in
your valuable journal advocating var
ious gentlemen for the Offices to be
flied at the next election. The alleged
indifference in the ranks of the DemOc-
racy. charged by our Republican friends
are thus shown to be not well founded.
il is believed that the Democratic hosts
will be united, aggressive and finally
triumphant at the next general cleo
ton.
There is no Office in the State more
important than that of Auditor, and
the writer has heard considerable men
tiCn of a gentleman's name in connec-
ton with that position, whose suit
ableness and adaptability to the place
no one would question. He is we'll
and favorably known, especially in
Wood. Lewis and Harrison countie,
and is without exception one of the
most careful, accurate and successful
business men in the State, and an ac-
countant of acknowledged experience
and ability. He conducted with mark
ed success a merchantable business in
Lewis county for a number of years,
and his record as Sheriff is, without
disparagement to any of his predeces-
sors, one of the neatest that can be
shown in the State. During his four
years administration of the affairs Of
that Office, every department pertain
ing to it, had the most careful, prompt
efficient attention. Delinquencies were
few, collections prompt and claimants
of public money, with valid demands,
were courteously met and Immediately
paid Lewis county, indeed, had cause
to regret his removal to Wood county,
and his valuable advice and activity
in business affairs have been greatly
missed by our people. His ability TO
keep at perfect command, in all its de-
tails. the largest business cannot be
eXcelled, and his nomination on the
Democratic ticket for the Office Of Aud
itor would arouse an enthusiasm and
an earnestness in the Democratic party,
that would be especially valuable to the
whole Democratic ticket He has al
ways been a Jealous supporter Of the
Democratic party, and has the best rea-
sons, and is able to give them, for his
party faith.
1t is, perhaps, needless to say that
reference is made to Charles A. Hor-
nor Of Harrison county.
