DODDRIDGE SWORD FUND.

The public should remember there
is but one general fund for the pur-
chase of sword for Ensign Doddridge.
This fund is being contributed to
through several mediums, one of which
is the Register. The citizens of this
community very naturally take a pride
in offering some suitable testimonial to
fellow townsman, born and reared
in their midst, whose patriotism and
bravery are unquestioned. The Regis
ter believes it duty to encourage the
sentiment behind the movement, hence
it has opened its columns to the promo
ton Of the object, and in order that it
may become as general and popular as
possible, suggests that small as well as
large contributions be sent in. A dime
is not too little.

In another column appears short
communication relative to features of a
public parade in connection with the
visit of Admiral Dewey to this city on
the 22d of February.
If we are to have a parade, why not
make it a record breaker?
All that is needed is a purpose to
that end and determination to give
the Admiral royal greeting.
If the suggestion be deemed worthy
of consideration and adoption, let the
general committee in charge take hold
of it with vim, appoint general
committee on parade, a finance commit
tee deputed to raise funds to meet the
necessary expenses, and a committee
whose business it shall be to make
such preparations and forward such in
vitations and inducements as shall en-
sure the presence here of representa-
tive regiments from West Virginia,
Ohio and Pennsylvania. The Pitts
burg detachment of the Naval Militia
might also be properly included. No
doubt the railroads would be glad to
make a rate which would prove at
tractive, and we might greet Dewey
with a display such as has not been
seen in Wheeling since the big sham
battle of 1878, when Ohio, Pennsylva
MIA and West Virginia troops were rep
resented by numerous organizations.
The thing can be done if proper
public spirit is shown. Why not do it.?

render very effective service against the
Indians. The Yaquis hold the rurales in
great dread. as they are their old-time
enemies and most formidable foe.
During the past ten days q great
many miners have arrived at Ortiz,
having been driven out Of the mount
aims by the threatening situation. They
all bring tales of murder and bloodshed.
Dozens of skirmish fights have resulted
in a number of soldiers and Indians be-
ing killed, and several miners have lost
their lives. Many of them have de-
serted paying mines in order to save
their lives.
The entire country where the Indians
are out is in. a state of fermentation,
and all the Americans are leaving as
rapidly as possible. Dividing the SOL
diers into small squads scatters the war
over a wider range of mountain terri
tory, and every section of the Yaqui
country is terrorized.

FEAR THE YAOUIS.
indian Warfare in Mexico Growing
More serious.

More Serious.
Austin, Tex. Sept. 26.-Judging from
reports reaching here yesterday from
5Ortiz, state of Sonora, Mexico the va
aui Indian warfare is rapidly growing
worse instead of abating. Lieut. Ma
jeran, who has arrived at Torres on his
way to the City of Mexico to make Off
cial reports as to the progress of the
campaign, says there has been no cessa.
zion in the warfare being waged against
the Indians by the Mexican govern
ment.
He reports that the Indians have
scattered into small bands and are now
vigorously waging a guerrilla warfare,
and that the Mexican soldiers have
adopted similar tactics and are also di-
vided into small scouting parties and
that there are frequent engagements
between the soldiers and the Indians
The Indians avoid open engagements
with the soldiers, rather harassing them
with attacks from secure positions in the
mountains and along the rough mount
ain roads, not infrequently causing
much loss of life among the soldiers,
with little harm to themselves.
Gen. Torres, in command of the Mexi-
can troops, asks the Mexican war de-
partment to send force of rurales to
assist him, as it is thought they can

Market Gossip,

Chicago, Sept. 26.-The local stocks in
the public houses showed for the week
an increase in wheat of 100000 bushels
an increase in corn of 1,O69 900 bushels
an increase in oats of 5000 bushels, an
increase in rye of $1,000 bushels, and a
decrease in barley of 24,OOO bushels The
local stocks in the public houses now
include 100000 bushels wheat, 2.922. 900
bushels corn. 1,i9S.000 bushels oats, 275,-
0oo bushels rye and 1000 bushels barley
There was no sensational develop
ment in September corn yesterday The
price was strong at the tip-top price sc
far. 35c Al that figure. however, there
was corn for sale. There is no question
but that the private elevators are max
ing and delivering corn at rapid rate
1t is believed that they made about /.
100000 bushels last week and that they
VIII make this week possibly 1000. 0O(
bushels more. That however. would
make only 100000 bushels contract
corn here, all of which. of course. goes
on low priced purchases. The uncer.
tainty of the outcome and as to wheth.
er there will be high price at the end
OF the week or u slipping away of the
quotations keeps the elevator people as
uncertain as the ordinary trader Per
haps the people behind the long interes,
do not themselves know the outcome
and that the price at the close of tbs
week will depend largely upon the de-
livery. A trader named Tichborne al
New York is said TO be largely inter
ested on the long side of corn
The very heavy average weight o.
hogs last week. 254 lbs. compared witt
25l lbs the week previous and 245 ID.
the same week last year, is suggestive
of large lard production.
Lard bulls are curious as to when tn.
soap man will be inclined to use lard il
their manufacture. Tallow now is abou
&c per Id over loose lard, but cotton
seed oil is cheap and the low priced
cotton oil and the tallow together max.
cheaper combination than the lard
for the latter can not be used in combi
lation with the cotton seed oil. At jus
what discount under tallow lard viii
go into soap the experts say is hard t.
decide. The cotton seed price will hav,
most to do with it. This latter now i.
somewhere between 1Sc and zoe and de
cidedly irregular and erratic. Twenty
five cents for cotton seed oil wouIt
probably induce some use of lard in tn,

SHAW ON SAVERS.
Iowa's Governor shows the True

1OWaS0 0OVernOr SHOWS the true
State of Affairs at ST. Louis Con-
ference.
Des Moines. Sept. Ex-Governor Shaw
was seen yesterday in regard to the in
terview Of Governor Savers, of Texas,
reported in the Associated Press of
Sunday, in which the Texan said that
the only unpleasant feature of the trust
conference at st. Louis was the action
of Governor Shaw, who, he said, was
unable to lay aside partisan bias and
refused to lay aside party prejudice
long enough to discuss the subject in
hand upon broad political and patriotic
lines"
Governor Shaw said he did not care to
discuss the speech of Governor Savers,
wherein he charged the republican par
ty by name with all responsibilities for
existing economic conditions, and ex-
pressed no nope of relief so long as the
republican party remains in power,
and advocated free silver and free
trade as the only remedies; nor the
speech of Governor Stephens, read from
u printed pamphlet, much in the same
vein wherein he used the expression:
Trusts whereby the rights of the peo-
pie are taken away, their holdings con-
fiscated by the slow and sure system of
taxation and usury and the standing
army, is the only refuge from penury:
trusts and tramps. the tandem team of
imperialism. Trusts naturally breed
expansion. for when the trusts
haze drained dry the substance of
their own people they must have new
fields to deplete. Expansion means
large standing arnias TRUSTS eynan-
sion, large armies, the three insepara-
of imperialism" and which speech he
closed with this appeal: Fellow coun-
trymen, within twelve short moons the
phalanXes will be drawn up in battle
array. when ballots. not bullets, will
decide the contest. on the one side the
trusts and truculent tramps; on the
other side the patriots and people. On
the one side the silken banners will
bear the inscription: Trusts. imperial
ISM on the other side the glorious flag
of our country, on whose folds in let
ters of flame will be the legend, Amer
lea, Liberty. Choose YOU today under
which banner you will fight
Governor Shaw said: These utter
ances will reveal the intent of the con-
ference better than any interview from
me. For the one speech was made by
Governor Savers himself, and read at
his instance and with his endorsement.

for my presence everything would have
been harmonious. j was the only one
to register protest against holding a

WATERFOWL, n. Y, Sept. 6.-Albert d.
Shaw, commander-in-c of the G. A.
r.. before leaving last night for Tope-
ka, Kas., where this week he will ad-
dress reunion of the veterans of that
state, said:
II regret all this trouble over the
Grand Army's position in the Dewey
parade, but it is from no fault of omis-
sion or commission on the part of the
only constituted authorities of the
Grand Army of the Republic.
We. believe what is accorded veter-
ans in other states should be granted
New York comrades, without any wob-
bling or special pleading.
However, when we old veterans are
gone, the armed soldiers who are yet
to fight battles will not be worried
about having aged veterans, who have
stacked arms on F'ames eternal camp
ing grounds trouble them over hair
splitting questions of where the ma
tons preservers should march in civil
pageant similar to the Dewey parade"
