A WORD ABOUT BOSSES.

To the Editor of the Register.
MARTINS FERRY. o.. September
12.-The evils and wrongs of political
bosses and bossism were made appar-
ent in the makeup of the delegations
from Monroe county in the Republican
Congressional convention of the Six
teenth Ohio district now in session at
Martins Ferry. Monroe county Re-
publicans for many years have been
controlled and governed by a political
boss, and the votes of the county in
district and Congressional conventions
have been bartered away at his will
and pleasure. The plan of placing the
power of selecting delegates in the
hands of the boss, or county ring
commonly known as the Executive
Committee), grew in favor with the
bosses and had been adopted on one
occasion by the committee in Belmont
county One year ago the Republican
Congressional convention OF the Six
teenth Ohio district, in session at Steu-
benville, recognizing the growth Of this
monstrous and un-Amerlcan evil, passed
a resolution that hereafter all dele
gates to Congressional conventions IN
the Sixteenth district should be by
ballot in primary convention, thus once
more placing the power of selecting del
egates to Congressional conventions
with the people, where it rightly and
properly belongs.
When the Congressional Committee
met few weeks ago to fix the time
and place of holding the convention,
it reversed the decision of the-preyious
convention and exempted Monroe coun-
ty from the rule requiring the election
of delegates by ballot and gave the ex-
ecutive committee of Monroe county
power to select the delegates TO the
conventions. Now. mark the result:
Monroe county is represented IN the
convention with 10 votes for J. j. Gill,
of Jefferson county, when he could not
in all probability have secured a single
delegate had they been selected by the
people either at primaries or by mass
convention At least four-fifths OF the
Republican voters of the county are IN
effect disfranchised and debarred from
having a voice in this convention by
the unwarranted and arbitrary action
of this political clique. The five votes
that have been cast for Gen. Holdings
worth from Monroe county fool nobody.
Every vote cast by said Monroe county
delegation for any candidate Except
glib is simply a blind, is dishonest, and
intended to give the action of the del
egation the semblance of fair play.
The fact is the delegation is fer Gill,
body and soul, and Mr. Gill will re-
eeive the Is votes of Monroe county
at any time he needs them TO secure
the nomination.
This communication is not directed
against any candidate before the con-
vention; its only object being 10 warn
the people against the danger of en-
trusting great political power TO the
bosses of the party. NJ.

the State of Ohio was wholly and
completely, utterly and unequivocally
avoided, at once sent a whisper
throughout the delegations and brought
a look of inquiry to scores of anxious
faces What did it mean? Was there
something distasteful in the name OF
the great and powerful boss to be
Stunned in a convention made I'D in
part at least of workingmen? Be that
as it may, the omission, evidently stud
led and afore planned. was significant,
and was made the subject of quiet but
scrutinizing remark. Just as the con-
vention expected Chairman De Ford to

CHARGE OF SLATE"
A Little Tiff in the Belmont County Caucus
Considered Significant,

Considered Significant
Yesterday morning there was little
circumstance in connection with the
Belmont county caucus which occasion
ed some little comment when it be-
came known. When the delegates as
sembled Major Petty, of GAINESVILLE,
suggested D. H. Darrah. of Bellaire,
for chairman of the caucus and the
choice was made unanimous. When
the selection of chairman of the dele
cation was reached the name of Madl-
son Aldredge was presented and also
that of Geo. E. Heburn. Aldredge
went through with a whirl, which sug-
gested previous arrangement and Jud.
Fish and some of his friends from
Powhatam set up the cry of '.slate. y
Some sharp talk followed and for a
few moments things looked bilious,
but the admonition of Chairman OAR
rah and others of the cooler heads pres
entity restored order. 1t is said the sec
ond choice of Mr.. Aldredge who is a
strong labor advocate, is Gill, while
that of Messrs. Fish and Heburn is
Hollingsworth, and hence the division
as above indicated.
