The Washington Post prints q spe.


The Washington Post prints spe-
cial dispatch from Columbus, giving
an interview with Chairman Kurtz,
Of the Ohio Republican State Conn
mittee, and leader Of the anti-Hanna
faction, 10 part as follows:
s.Tbe retirement of Senator Hanna
Tis assured. The Republicans will do
it themselves, without the aid of
Democratic votes. The next Ohio
Legislature will elect some Repub-
lican who is not a millionaire. The
returns of the recent election show
that Hanna is not wanted by the
party. The days of his bossism are
over The people are against him,
and that settles it.
1.-THE result reached will be salts
factory to the country, to Ohio, and
to President Mckinley, who has wear
led Of Hanna's self-importance. 1t
viii be satisfactory to Republican
congressman, who are tired OF Han
mas assumption of authority as the
mouthpiece OF the administration,
and who are kept dancing in attend
ance on him for anything they may
desire.
'sThe resolution of Endorsement
adopted by the Toledo convention
meant nothing. 1t was adopted by a
convention controlled by the paid
agents of Mr.. Hanna. 1t was fixed
beforehand, and | am fully acquaint-
ed with the men and the means EN-
ployed."

Current Topics.

The Anne Eliza Johns Chapter OF
the Daughters of the Confederacy, OF
Danville. Va, which started the
movement for the erection of mon
ument to the women of the Southern
Confederacy, has decided that its best
form would be the establishment of
woman's college on Virginia soil,
where the daughters of Confederate
soldiers may receive liberal educa-
ton.
Ex-Governor MacCorkle, who has
been confined to his home by illness
for several weeks, is at Richmond,
Va, where he goes to consult DR..
Hunter Mcclure, the celebrated phys
ician of that city. The Governor is
not improving as rapidly as his friends
would like to see him, but 1t is hoped
that his visit to Richmond will help
him.
A New York sporting authority
asserts that the percentage of fatal
tiles is much greater on the foot ball
field than in the prize ring. But the
estimate Of percentages where two
contestants are engaged in one case
and twenty two in the other is very
unfair and misleading. The sugges-
tion that low tackling and mass plays
should be barred on the foot ball field,
if followed, would probably improve
the game both as spectacle and a
matter of safety for the players.

Hypnotism and Mind. Reading.

Professor e. II. Boone, Familiarity
known as "Boone, the Great, lately
from Calcutta, India, where he exhib-
tied before the royal court, where he
excelled the feats of the Orient, will
be at the Opera House one night, Fri
day Nov. Goth. Professor Boone has
made some sensational displays of his
occult power and is one of the most
successful opponents of the myster-
ious art now living. His feat OF
burying a man four days six feet
under ground at indianapolis, Ind,
some time ago. OF which all the lead
ing papers of America carried columns,
gained for him great reputation.
He will place his subject, j. l.

two days, in the large show window

him on the stage Friday night. See

Mr.. Miller also netted about S., 00(

in this county this year, was not full

otherwise.

Grave errors, injustice, wrongs Of
greater or less degree, arise from lack
of knowledge Of the truth, and more
frequently from deception.
The most infamous case on record
of deception and injustice is the at

States.
There is no learned judge, skiIld
lawyer, or court Of justice that
capable of reconciling the effort
the constitutional laws that goA \
the issue of money in this countryA
The people have been deceived,
officials in power, chosen to admins
ter justice under the laws, havd
ignored their sworn duty, and give,
aid to the scheme that has paralyze(
industry, reduced property values
one-half, and beggared millions.
There is no authority Of law, either
specific or by inference, by which
gold alone is made the only money
with which to discharge debts, either
public or private. The effort to
make it SO is unconstitutional and a
national calamity.

cOyery.

During the Time They slept a Railroad
Had been built through the Town.
The short Line Railroad Company
Steals March ON its Opponents
Many Men and Teams, Carrying Rails
Ties and Tools, Slipped in and Put
to Work Under Cover of Darkness
An order Of the City Council Check
mated by Judge Freer's Injunction.
CLARKsBURG, w. Va, Nov. 49,
During the fastness and darkness of
last night body Of men, one hun
dred strong, with twenty wagons
weighted down with cross ties and
rails, came into town near what is
known as Cain street, and unloaded
their freight.
At about o'clock this morning
the men commenced work and grad
ed mile of road and laid the ties
and rails from Cain street over Bluff
street across Fourth street and
through the property of a pumber OF
citizens.
When morning dawned the peo-
pie were surprised to find that the
Short Line Railroad Company, con
trary to order of council, had located
its road on the survey which gave il
grade crossing right in front of the
now proposed new bridge to the Bal
timore d Ohio depot, making it i'm
possible for the bridge people, who
had commenced their work, To fur
ther proceed.
The council met and passed the
following order.
Whereas, The company known as
the Short Line Railrpad Company
has entered upon and occupied GER
tain streets and roadways of this the
town of Clarksburg, West Virginia
without the permission or authority
of the council of said town, 1t is here
by ordered that the Superintendent
of Streets be ordered and required
without delay, to proceed with such
force as may be necessary, and re
move any track or other obstruction
now on, or which may he placed up
on such streets or roadways AND
it is further ordered that the Ser
geant of such town be on the ground
with the force of police and protect
the Street Commissioner and bis
employees in the discharge of his du
ties, and should said force OF police
be inadequate to enforce this order
then the Mayor be required 10 APP
point a sufficient number of specia
policemen to carry it into effect
Scarcely had Sergeant Reed gath
cred his deputies about him and
Street Superintendent Callahan col
ected his laborers and marched tC
the scene of the difficulty with the
intention of removing the railroad
from the streets of the town, thar
the council was served with an or
der OF injunction granted by Judge
Romeo II. Freer, ordering that the
town of Clarksburg, their servants
agents, etc, be enjoined from remov.
ing or in any way interfering with
the construction of the railroad on
its proposed route.
So the first battle has been fought
and won and then lost
In the next ten days motion will
be made to dissolve the injunction.

HANNA FAR BEHIND.
Bushnell Ran 20, 900 Ahead of the Leg
islatiye Ticket.

WASHINGTON, Nov. I9.-There is
not county of the 50 in the State
OF Ohio In which Hanna did not run
behind the vote given to Governor
Bushnell at the recent election. In
his own county, the latest returns
show that he was knitted to the ex-
tent of 4, $50 votes, or los more than
the amount by which he suffered in
Hamilton county, when compared
with the head OF the ticket. The
Foraker counties can be discovered
easily by the amount Of the knitting
that was done. In Lucas county, of
which Toledo is the seat, Hanna suf-
fered to the extent of 3,025 votes,
which represents the organized labor
bodies, which by resolution, decided
to antagonize the legislative ticket
that stood for Hanna's reelection.
The official count, complete shows
that Hanna fell almost $4,000 voters
behind Bushnell.
