Wa, a Deliberate Deceit.

All that the Democratic organ can say
regarding the action of the 1ntelllEencer
in not publishing letter written by
relative OF GoverEor-elect Roosevelt, a
matter which was optional With the In
telllgeneer. will not excuse the Register
in the minds of the public for deliber-
ately changing the wording of the dis
patch in order to credit the letter to
Goyernor-elect Roosevelt, when it was
plainly stated in the Introductory sem
tence tina. It was another Roosevelt.
The fact that the gentleman was
relative OF the governor-elect did not in
crease the value OF the letter, nor did It
warrant the Register In dishonesty
praciicing a deceit upon its readers.
When the Register declares that the In
telllgencer misrepresen,s 1t in calling
attention to It's alteration Of the dis
patch, and excuses ltseif on the plea
that It was mistaken, It INDUCES in an
other deceit. There was no mistake
about 1t. It was deliberate alteration
OF the text. Robert H. Roosevelt was
stricken out by the editor handling 1t
and the words Governor Roosevelt"
were substituted. The 1nteliigencer has
a copy of the original, and can prove its
charge by manifold copy of the dis
patch delivered TO the Register.
Furthermore, when the Register COM
plains OF the IntelIlsencer for using its
own option and proper privilege in pub
fishing legitimate news. It fails to say
it used tina. same prerogatiye in regard
to this same dispatch. in not publishing
the proceedings OF the inquiry board In
connection with the dispatch referred to.
our only purpose was TO expose dis
honest change made in dispatch to al
ter It's meaning and Significance, in vlo-
la,lon of journalistic honor and the rules

1t was not expected that the Demo-
cratic leaders and organs, and those
who have taken issue with the President
in regard to the so-callad policy of "ex-
pans!on." would be altogether pleased
with the message. It is not surprising
that, after being unable to find any
thing in It to crIticise, save those things
which may be called party issues, some
OF them. the inconslderate ones, should
strain at a criticism and find one in the
Presidents omission of a discussion
OF the government OF our new possess
slons, and the outline OF a policy con-
corning them.
Such leaders OF the Democracy as
Chairman Jones, OF the national Gree
silyer) Democracy, Bailey. of Texas,
Mcmillan, Of Tennessee. and others, for
purposes which are very apparent, find
in this omission great cause for crisi-
cIsm and disappointment" They de-
clare that the President should have
outlined policy and discussed freely
mis- ideas for the government OF the pos
sessions. Republican leaders generally,
approaching the real reason for this
omission. and proper reason Il is, see
nothing in the message 10 criticize.
The absurdly veal, and the only straw
upon which 10 cling In captlous critI-
clsm Is aiso grasped by the smaller fry
OF newspaper organs OF the Democracy.

WHEELING, DECEMBER .. 1893
Vicinrie. q Anetican Peaee.


That IS q splendid tribute Mr.. William
n stead. a special correspondent of the
Associated Press, writing from cOnstaa-
tinople. pays 20 the American victories
Of peace't in the Old World, particularly
81 the orient. His citations from per-
sonal knowledge and investigation Of
what has been accomplished by Ameri-
can influences in the Ottoman empire
'tthat regeneration of the vnst compost
Of wrecked kingdoms, prlnclpalities and
natlonaiities," as Mr.. stead styles 1t. He
refers to the work which has been done
IN the Orient by American missionaries
and their contributions toward the
spread OF civilization. He details how
the American Christians IN the establish
ment OF Robert College in Turkey have
spread Nthrough the sultan's domain
American methods, and how that COLLEGE
has become the hope of the future of the
millions who inhabit that dominion.
Aside from the great new influence
thls country is welding in the world.
and the inroads 1t is making in the wide
fleld Of commerce and trade. the social
and christlanizing influences of these
factors referred to by Mr.. Stead are OF
the greatest Importance to the country
While they are net carried on by the
government they pave the way for
peace conquesls by the country in the
commercial world and add to our pres
tige In many other respects. The same
Is true of China and japan as of the
Turkish possessions.
Mr.. Stead eloquenty calls attention
10 facts whic': are little known by
Americans, and which they will do well
70 post thmselveE on, when he tells how
tho Amerlcauizlng of the Orient by the
swarFhs OF missionaries are putting new
lie into the Aslatic races, He states a
powerful fact when he declares:
They are busy everywhere. teaching,
preachIng, hegetting new life IN these
AsIatic races. No one hears or them.
They eschew politics. They stick to
their Bible and their spelling book, but
every year an Increasing number OF Ar
menians and other orientals issue from
the American school familiar with the
principles OF the declaration Of inde-
pendence and the fundamental doc
trines OF the American constitution. And
so the leaven IS spreading throughout
the whole land.
The sultan doesn't like all this which
Is taking place in Armenia; the car of
Russia looks upon 1t with dlsfavor. but
they cannot help 1t. It Is a peaceful
war. for peace and of peace. It can DO
nothing but good in the world to spread
the Impress Of American principles
abroad among the benighted ones of the
orient. It's affect on the remainder of
the world win be lasting. The victories
Of American peace are no less renowned
than the victories OF war.

A Plan ,h,t Failed.

The astounding purpose of the demand
on the part Of the Democrats for re-
count in Marshall county as to the vote
for state senator, and two members Of
the legislature was exposed yesterday
when the attorneys for the Democrats
asked for a continuance OF the recount
for the second time. and were refused
by the court which was ready to pro-
coed. The attorneys then withdrew the
demand altogether. When the demand
for recount was made the Democratic
managers expected IN" court to refuse;
when II granted the ! quest, they were
taken by surprise and asked for a post
ponement, which WINS granted, The new
date came and they again asked post
ponemeni.
The Democrats expected. on a refusal.
to take the matter to the legislature and
have the two legislative candidates who
were defeated seated, should the house
be controlled By the Democrats. Seeing
that hope depart the demand for the re-
count was Withdrawn. It was slick
trick but II failed The certificates of
s.urm and the two deleGatcs-elect have
been forwarded to the secretary OF state.
The account OF the whole proceeding
win be found elsewhere.

dent has no policy, OF none that be dare

borne a burden with credit to himself
and with firmness and courage). such

has faced in the past century. And the
Register continues that the President

too appalled, at the immensely Of the

evidently. also, the writer Of the above
did not read the message. and that evil

judIce that he cannot see that his as
sumption is absurd on Its face.
The facts In the case can be briefly
stated and are SUFFICIENT to show the abb
surdity Of criticisms of this nature, by
whomsoever they are made. They ex-
pose either a desire to create prejudice,
a purpose 20 mlsrepresent the President,
or an Ignorance Of the Executives rea-

sion at this time to discuss the policy

outline his own views on the whole mat

sentation. Let the President speak for
himself. In that part of his message
relating to the peace commission the
President Gays:
"I do not discuss at this time the gov

Of the war with Spain. SUCH A DIS

otherwise. It will be my duty to continue
the military governments which have
existed since our occupation, and give

All of which Is clearly in accordance
with the Presidents duty. Why should
anything else be expected? Why should
