Gated over Jacob Becker's establish
ment and is in charge of Capt. George
Fitzgerald, who states that ne means
business and expects to get a commits
sion from Governor Atkinson to form a
regiment in Marshall county. He has
already received a number of offers
and is confident of getting a regiment
that will make that of Squire Rogers
OF Wheeling, pale into insignificance.
In order to try to offset the division
in the Republican ranks the Intelli-
gencer retaliates by saying that Rob
ert Truax, one of the candidates for
Mayor, is telling in order to get votes
that Thos. i. Deegan, another cdndi-
date. is paying employees of the elcc-
trio light plant poor wages. The state
ment is absurd and was regarded as
such. Mr. Deegan has no connection
with the management of the electric
light plant, being not even a director,
and has practically no more 70 say
about what wages should be paid than
the Intelligencer writer himself. Tile
Intelligencer has not as yet accepted
