without doubt, a more capable judge of at
fairs than the tea-drinking aunIies and the
self-sufficient critics of the administration
To get the full flavor of this charac-
teristic Pecksnifian utterance we have
only to review certain notorious facts.
The live newspapers of the country
which think more of publishing the
news than of keeping their readers in
ignorance of important current happen
ings for partisan political purposes, all
have published columns and pages OF
interviews-not anonymous, but in
every case accompanied by the name of
the soldier interviewed-with several
western volunteer regiments returned
from the Philippines, and the Tenth
Pennsylvania These publications have
taken up more or less space in the
press of the country from New York to
San Francisco at various times for sew
eral weeks past When the Tenth
Pennsylvania arrived at the Golden
Gate, the San Francisco papers printed
pages Vi lulGINlthS Will lnS
soldiers, which interviews were re-
printed broadcast over the country in
the independent press. After the same
regiment arrived at Pittsburg and had
been welcomed by the people and pal
avered by Mr.. Mckinley, a PittsDurg
paper again interviewed the boys and
published several columns of brief
statements, accompanied in each case
by the name of the soldier interviewed.
The Register refers to these numer-
Gus interviews published in the live
newspapers of the country from Cali
fornia to New York, for the purpose of
asking our honest neighbor of Four
teenth street, in the light of his COM
ment reproduced above, how many OF
them were reproduced by the Intelli-
gencer?
We do not need to pause for a reply.
The organs files show that it did not
publish single one, although the Reg
lister and every other live paper in the
country has published columns Of
them.
Why has our neighbor not given
space to these statements from the vol
unteers or even referred to them? 1t
doesn't require a mind reader to finds
the answer. 1t is simply because it is
an organ and dare not publish news
that conflicts with the administration
imperial idea 1t goes all the way out
to Minnesota, however, to find an al
legged letter from a soldier bolstering
up the imperial scheme, and it pub
fishes the same with editorial fiourishes
and upbraids the journalistic fraternity
at large for not doing likewise, while
it utterly ignores the columns of inter-
views with the members of thesgallant
Tenth Pennsylvania, our own neigh
bors, many of them well known in
Wheeling, and published in a,paperthat
reaches the Intelligencer Office 'thesvery
morning of publication!
How very Pecksniffian is thisAper-
formance!

Late Saturday night Rev. T. J. Pow
ell, whose home is at Madison, Ind,
died at the Nevarro Hotel. Rev. Pow
ell arrived here during last week, and
for some time past has been on very
bad spree. He left the above city in
that condition and accompanied by his
wife. When Cincinnati was reached
Mrs Powell left her husband and ar
rived at her fathers home on Bowman
arrival here Rev. Powell has been
drinking with the result that his death
occurred Saturday night. A physician
was called but could do nothing, as the
victim was too far gone. Rev. Powell
was born in Wales and was a very
smart man. His age was about SO
years, and he had been married twice.
His second wife's maiden name was
Anguish. her home being at Bowman
Ridge. The body of Rev. Powell was
embalmed at the hotel yesterday and
will likely be taken to the cemetery on
Bowman Ridge for interment

THE MOTE AND THE BEAM.

Our contemporary, the Fourteenth
street imperial organist, publishes a
letter from an alleged volunteer soldier
Of a Minnesota regiment, which reads
more like stump speech by Hanna
cratic politician than the utterance of a
returned soldier. Of course, the letter
is rabidly pro-imperial in tone, other
wise it never would have found a place
in our neighbours columns. But it is
our contemporary remarks in con-
nection with this alleged soldier letter,
which is SO very different from the ma
jority of the other soldier letters and
interviews, to which we wish to call
especial attention.
The good man closes his remarks
triumphantly thus:
1t would be expectinS too much to hope
TO see any of these utSsrances quoted in
the organs of the h-6xpansionists,, for
they are not given to faifGess in any form,
but these letters show t& temper of the
American soldier in the yeld, and he Is.

TRUE TO LIFE.

West Virginia Bar.
A New Zealand newspaper contains
the following: "a Maori chief, VINO
lost $40 through a white storekeeper
going through the bankruptcy court,
has given the following lucid exposi-
ton of this particular branch OF British
jurisprudence: The pakeha (Whlte
mani who wants to become pakarapu
(insolvenD goes into business, and gets
lots of goods, and does not pay for
them. He then gets all the money he
can together, say $4,000, and puts all
of it, except G way where no one can
find it, With the 6 he goes to a
Judge of the court and wants to become
pakarapu. The judge then calls all the
lawyers together likewise all the men
to whom the pakeha owes money, and
he says: This man is pakarapu, but
he wishes to give you all that he has
got, and so he has asked me to divide
this 95 amongst you ALL The judge
thereupon gives the lawyers ga and
the remaining. 81 to the other men.
Then the pakeha goes home

Acknowledgement Griggs, it is said,
not only believes Capt, Carter guilty,
but thinks he had confederates who
should be punished. Well, well. And
after all these months-we might al
most say years. The question is, Why
has he been shielded by the President?
OF course, everyone understands it is to
save from prosecution the aforesaid
confederates of Captain Carter, who are
also valued friends of Mr.. Mckinley,
Boss Plat and the Hon. Marcus Aurif-
erous Hanna But it would be inter-
esting to have a word of explanation
from Washington, just the same.

If you are a music lover, you can
double your pleasure, when you visit
Wheeling this week, by visiting the
great closing out sale of the Milligan,
Wilkin & Co. stock of pianos and or
gans at lao Market street. The entire
stock, including many new and beauti-
full instruments of the best manufact-
urers in the country, has been bought
by the reorganized F. w. Banner Co.
and is being sold at a very great re-
duction from former prices. This is a
genuine opportunity to secure real bar
gains. Call and examine the stock.

have been a little more in evidence than
previously. The greater portion of the
business done consists of purchases by
dealers themselves. although as a rule
where manufacturers have bought they
have been obliged to pay higher prices
or they have not succeeded in getting the
wool. A number of dealers are NOT Of
fering their wool at all and are practically
out of the market The advance in the
price of territory wool in this market has
resulted in checking the export movement.
