An UNKNOWN RACE.
Fierce Tribe Discovered on the Side Of a
High Formosa Mountain.

VANCOUVER, 3. c., May l9.-The
ascent of Mount Morrison, the highest
mountain in Formosa, has been made
by X. t. Stoepel, an explorer of note.
On the mountain, near the summit, he
discovered a tribe of human beings that
had never seen the face Of a white man,
and. possibly. had never seen a China
man. These people Were of ferocious
aspect. extremely ugly, thin and en-
tirely naked. They We're skull hunters,
evidently, and existed ON wild animals
and were not averse to human flesh.
Lower down on the mountain he dis.
covered a wild race Of Malays. which
seems TO have intermingled with the
Chinese race.

HINT FOR DEMOCRATS.

The Democrats in Council are suffi-
GENTLY numerous now to demand some
consideration, and they should insist,
not only upon a full and fair repre-
sentation upon all committees, but
also hat they be given the right to
name the minority representative
upon the various Boards. It has been
the Republican custom to not only
select the Republican membership Of
the Boards, but the Democratic mem
Der as well. 1t is time to demand a
change.

Last evening Mr.. w. V. Higgins and
Mr.. w. A. Scott left on their spring tour
for the Wheeling Pottery Co. They will
be gone about ten weeks n will trav-
erse a score of States from the Mlssis-
sippi to the eastern seaboard. Mr.. Hig-
gins goes east to the New England States
and as far south as Norfolk, Va. while
Mr.. Scott's trip will take him west as far
as the Father of Waters.
The samples carried by these gentlemen
comprise some of the finest specimens
of the potter's art ever sent out of Wheel
ing. The dinner service Bonita christ
ened by Mrs. Geo. w. Atkinson, is semi
porcelain, very thin and exquisiteiy en-
bossed. 1t is a fitting representative of
the famous LaBelle china. Another fine
piece of art is the Floral" a toilet set of
large size lone in under-glaze decoration.
This set sells at popular prices and is
sure to be a great leader.
These veteran statesmen anticipate a
very prosperous trip and big sales.

City Republicans devoted them
selves yesterday to the interesting but
not particularly remunerative occu-
patton OF extracting sunshine from
cucumbers. While congratulating
themselves upon retaining a tail-hold
upon the situation, the average ring
man had a thoughtful expression of
face and a sad look in the eye, while
the generally dazed condition re-
minded the observer forcibly of the
desperate effort of a pugilist to come
up smiling after a vicious punch in
the wind. The subdued air was
noticeable once the caller at the Pub
lie Building stepped Inside the door,
and as he wendell his way from office
to Office the where are we att situ-
alton was everywhere apparent. The
old-time arrogant and domineering
spirit was broken. and there was a de-
cided absence of the former feeling
which finds it's best expression in the

Saints. We are the Saints" A few
of the officials made a feeble effort
to rejoice at what they termed their
victory" One more such victory"
and the ring will be so completely
smashed that it will command rever-
ence and respect nowhere, between
the Ravine and Forty-eighth street,
and no one realizes this better than
the leaders. 1t takes the people to
make a combination, such as we have
had here in Wheeling, see the error
of its ways. They got one pointer at
the bond election, and another on
Thursday. If the voters go after them
again-and they will if the occasion
arises-there will not be one ringster
left in Office. The warning has been
given; next time there will be a gem
eral exodus.

IS IT CURABLEa
a Question Often Asked by Those Afflicted
With Piles.

With Piles.
Is a strained joint durable? Is
local Inflammation durable? OF
course, if properly treated. So is
piles.
People often become afflicted
with piles and ask some old
Chronic" who has always persist
ed in the wrong treatment and
naturally discourages them by tell
ing them that their case is hope
less.
They in turn discourage others,
and thus a disease that can in
every case be cured by careful and
skilful handling is allowed to sap
the energy of thousands who might
free themselves of the trouble in
a few days.
Pyramid Pile Cure will cure the
most aggravated ase of hemor-
'rhoids in an astonishingly short
time. 1t relieves the contested
parts, reduces the tumors instantly
no matter how large, allays the in
flammation and stops the aching or
itching at once.
Thousands who had resorted to
expensive surgical operations have
been cured by Pyramid Pile Cure
in a number of instances persons
who had spent months in a hos
pital under a specialist.
1t is a remedy that none need
fear to apply I'VE to the most ag-
~graVated, swollen and infamed
hemorrhOidal tumors.
If you are afflicted with this
stubborn disease you a master it
and master it quickly.
This remedy is no longer an ex-
pertinent, but a medical certainty.
1t is manufactured by the Pyramid
Drug Co., of Marshall, Mich.
Druggists sell it at so cents per
box. 1t is becoming the most pop
ular pile cure this country has
ever known and druggists every
where are ordering it for their Gus
toners.

various wards called at the City Hall
and Court House yesterday to talk
over the situation. They mostly
wanted explanations as to the why
and wherefore of the slump; they went
away just as wise as they came, for
in all the surmising and guess-Work
the truth, that the people rose in re-
volt, was stumbled upon. They
went over the returns by precincts.
and compared them with the poll
books, and told how they got the vote
out, and how hard the hired men
worked, and that the last man was
brought to this voting place and that,
and how much it all cost in effort and
cash and beer; but when this had been
gone through, the fact that there had
been a great big slump still stared
them in the face from the tabulated
returns, and it had not been accounted
for. The truth was, they could lead
the horse to the water, but they
couldn't make him drink. The voter
could be landed in the polling booth,
but there control over him ended. and
he proceeded to mangle his ring ticket
in a heart-rending way, for he had his
own ideas about the proprieties of the
occasion, and that idea was to give
the ring a jolt. And so, all through
the day, the ring workers brought
voters to the polls, and the voters
scratched their tickets like good citi-
Zens, and the bigger the vote the worse
it was for those in power. Had it
been possible to poll two thousand
more votes than were cast, it would
have been a clean sweep for reform in
the city government. One Republican
leader said 'The poll in our precinct
showed 10 majority; we got 'em all
out, and five more besides, and when
it came to a show down the other side
had the majority. l don't understand
it." One leader in the Court House
asked another: How does it com
pare with the poll in your district"
"To Hades with the poll" was the re-
ply; "the poll was no good at all, as
far as results are concerned"
The disposition to make Mayor
Butts the scape-goat, on the part of
the leaders, is scarcely warranted by
the returns, and Mr.. Butts friends are
justly sore at this phase of the stu
alton, and threaten retaliation two
years hence. 1t must be remembered
that Mayor Butts only had Gel major
ity two years ago, as against loss for
Watkins, 1,157 for Bennett and SIS for
Norrington, and therefore the Mayor
could not stand a landslide as well as
the others. The majorities at the two
elections were:

Three INT were presented, they 10.

and NJ. II. McNabb. Ten members, the
full Republican strength, We're present,
and Mr.. 0'Brien received ten votes,
which was a good deal of a eompli-
ment to him, and did not speak much
for the standing of the other two can
didates with the members. This little
caucus also considered the course to be-
pursued in the Branch during the en-
suing two years with reference to the
fact hat the body, while having q
Republican majority on the floor. will
have a Democratic presiding officer in
the person OF Mayor-elect Sweeney.
The situation is a little unusual in
legislative bodies, for the majority on
the floor usually have the presiding
officer, and to have him in line with
the minority is at times just a little Bit
awkward. The result of the delibera
lions will probably be the selection 0
a Republican leader on the floor q
the Branch, and the rest will vote as he
mods.

The law provides for the appoint

of Council by the Mayor. One of the
many reports in circulation yesterday
was that the Republicans intended to
quietly call a session of Council and
upset this ordinance, that the Com
mittee might be constituted upon Re-
publican ring lines. Such a course
would be impossible, as it takes two
thirds of all the members present to
pass an ordinance, while a. single Dem
ocrat could block the proceedings by
a simple objection. No doubt the Re
publican managers would like to up
set the existing order of things, but
they can't do it, and would scarcely
dare try it if they could.

The first echo of the election came
yesterday morning bright and early,
when Mayor Butts issued an order,
through the police department, that all
Slot machines must cease operations.
These machines have been running
openly, in violation of law, for several
years, and it was not quite understood
yesterday why there should be such a
sudden shutdown on the part of a re-
firing official. Explanations were
sought, but the only one available was
that the friends of the Mayor believed
the saloonists aided very materially in
his defeat. and hence the machines had
to go. The order set a good many peo-
pie who habitually violate city ordi-
nances to thinking, and created a great
deal of talk throughout the city. In
one Third ward saloon the slot ma
| chine was turned with it's face towards
the wall, and on its back was pinned
this legend: Sacred to the memory
of John r. Butts" The continuance
looked not unlike a monument, and
| helped out the joke.
