MORE OF SCOTS VICTIMS.
Worked in Fairmont as Well as in Morgan
town-Caught 200 People.
Special to the Register.

opecldl 10 the Register.
Morgantown, W. Va, February g.
1t now turns out that Morgantown peo-
pie, University professors and students
were not the only victims of c. f.
Scott, the young man whom the stu
dents called on, en- mask a few nights
ago, and ordered to leave town.
While in Fairmont during the Christ
mas vacation young Scott called upon
Ex-Governor A. B. Fleming and told
the Governor that Judge Okey Johnson,
dean of the Law School, had suggested
that he should go to him in case he
should need money while in the town
and his little story of being short of
cash at that time was so plausible that
the Governor let him have $40, which
Scott neglected or forgot to pay, as he
also did his hotel bill for two weeks
of the best board the Hotel Watson
could furnish. 1t now appears that
he borrowed from 80 cents to so from
about 200 students and various sums
from citizens.
Every day some new victim turns up
and it is thought that there are 9TH
ers."

took no particular charge of the ballots
as an oficial: that Mr. Bennett looked
after the ballots with great care; that
the writing on the ballots was not IN
his hand: that he had never in any way
CHANGED or caused to be changed any
ballot or ballots cast at the last general
election; that his sympathies were with
Mr.. Bennett on the ground that they
we're personal friends and that they
both belonged to the Democratic par

THE PEOPLES RIGHTS.

All Combinations OF Legislation "eai'"
and Power are Against the Masses.
To the Editor of the Register.
Arnettsville. February 81 was
much impressed with your article IN
a recent issue in regard to the dlnerent
classes of society and their manner
of living in this once free and equal
country of ours: but now the freedom
is all enjoyed by the moneyed ariStoc-
racy.
This state of affairs is largely due
TO LEGISLATION in favor OF money pro
cured iii some way we need not specify
and the end is not yet. The use OF mill
ions in the last campaign to force TINS
very class. now being kept by contrl-
buttons to vote for further contlnu-
ance and extension of such conditions
is too apparent. And when we look at
the enormous expense being put on the
people by the law-making powers, ana
all the time something new to tax the
people for, we are led to exclalm,
How long, oh, Lord how long"
II seems strange how the people can
be deceived by the promises made OF
restored confidence. etc, after they nave
witnessed that all legislation for 81
years has been for the centralized wealth
and the established combines and trusts
to be exempt from taxation. But we
must not censure the Republicans with
all this: we have G. Cleveland, with his
civil service and royal family. | find
the subject too big for my gun, so III
let it drop.
trust the Register will always main
tain it's character as an advocate OF
the rights Of the people, and especially
ought our agricultural and producing
classes be educated to do something for
their relief before their property is
swept from them by the tax-gatherers.
| may have some more TO say to that
class of my brethren soon. Go on,
Bro. fancy, with your good work.

Parkersburg. w. Va, February .
The big suit between Messrs. George K.
Gilmore and Baer & Afford. in which
the plaintiff asks 10 recover his share
of the sale Of $4,000 worth of oil land
in the Ogdin field is now on trial at
Circuit Court here. and oil men are TAX
ing a great deal of interest il the suit.
The Henderson, field comes to the
front with an important point concern
ing the ownership of the Jack Masters
lease. and some costly litigation Will
likely follow. Mallory Bros, OF Sis
tersyille. were given a lease on the farm
abont March 10. 1886. Later in the
month Masters leased to George Boss
q mart of the farm. Boss sold the lease
to Fred Rich, and Rich later sold It TO
Baer & Afford and VIM. Ford, OF Wheel
ing. The latter drilled two good Weiis
on the lease and were starting thlrd
when they were informed by Mallory
Bros. that they were on their lease.
In the meantime, Masters also leased
another piece of the farm, one and
three-fourths acres, to Deem d CO., ana
they drilled one good well on their
lease. When the matter between Baer
& Afford and Ford and Mallory Bros.
became known. there was nothing for
the former firm to do but to relinquish
their claims on the lease. Mallory
Bros. paid them for the two wells they
had drilled. and that feature OF the case
was settled with the exception that
Baer & Afford and Ford will endeaVor
to collect the rentals, etc, they nave
paid Masters.
1t is thought that the trouble over tn me
one and three-fourths acre tract VIII
not be settled so easily, as it is SAID that
Masters did not have clear tl'ie 10
the tract when he leased it TO Mallory
and did not get it until August before
which he leased to Deem q Co.
Attorney James Hutchinson, Oh TINS
CITY. also had claim on the tract ne
having sold the royalty to Deem q CO.
and TO ]. W. Kelly. The outcome OF the
trouble will be watched with a great
deal of interest by the local oil men, as
the property involved is as rich as any
in the county.
