the facts relative to the case of Thomas
Jones VS.. Joseph Fisher In the first

title of this case, which is Thomas Jones
VS.. Evan Fisher, this appearing to be a
clerical error. In the second place,
would respectfully ask that you publish
the following statement of all the facts
in the case, and feel that l am, in justice
to myself, entitled to have the public
know just what my connection with it
was, and just what I did by direction of
my client.
On the 9th day of May this man Jones
called a my office and informed me that
he had employed detective to shadow
his wife and Evan Fisher, the defendant
above named, and that he had been ad-
vised by this detective that on Saturday
night, April 90, while he tJones) was at
his post of duty at the Parrot smelter if
he would quit his work and go to his resi-
dence, a few doors west of the Western
iron works. he would find his wife and
Fisher in a compromising position: that
he tJones) returned, to his house and
found his wife and Fisher in the room to-
gether. Jones then threw Fisher through
the glass door into the street. Then, after
satisfying himself that Fisher had made
himself scarce in that part of the city, he
went back to his work. On returning
nome the following Sunday morning. he
fcund his house abandoned by his Wife

OUR PRE- SCHOOL SYSTEM.

Our free school sy stem, which in
West Virginia is brought to the highest
development, is one more monument
to the wisdom and beneficence of Dem
ocratic rule nol only in this State but
in all the great States of the Union.
The Charleston Gazette en- this subject
presents these interesting facts:
But it Isl a historical fact that the pres
ent free schol system, which has since
been broadtmAd and improved, was found
ed in Pennsylvania. by the Democrats who
We're in power in that State at that time.
1t is also a historical fact that in Ohio
the Democratic party was in power when
the free school, system was adopted in
that State; and the system was brought
to its highest per lection under Democratic
auspices.
The same IS true of all the States west
and north of Ohio on this side of the Da-
kota line
The free school $. ystem was planted in
Oregon by Democ ratio Legislature and
fornia.
The free schools of West Virginia have
been nurtured and st rengthened by ti1e
Democrats when in pow er; and 1t was lett

Instead of punishment Foul Mouth
Eagan's court-martial sentence as re-
Guced and modified by the President,
is really a reward. His suspension
with full pay is equal to furlough.
AS the New York Journal forcibly puts
it, "if the most brilliant and faithful
officer in the army should ask a six
years furlough on full pay as recon-
pense for distinguished services the
War Department would laugh at the
effrontery OF the request. The favor
that no merit could win has been grant

rotten beef, has disgraced the military.

can people has no limits?'

TO pIsCKnDIT AN DEPosE MILES

The brand new inquiry to look into
Gen. Miles's embalmed beef charges,
ostensibly ordered by Alger, is really
to be an investigation of Gen. Miles,
himself 1t is an indirect method of
discrediting Gen. Miles, whom the
cautious, crafty and exceedingly shifty
gentleman in the White House does
not dare attack openly.
The order is extraordinary in that it
does not purpose to investigate any
ones conduct but a condition of things
already declared to exist by the COM
handing general! Gen. Miles, him
self, is not directly the subject of in
vestigation. Oh, no! Mr.. Mckinley
is too shrewd not to carefully avoid the
appearance of prosecuting the bluff,
honest and outspoken commander for
his brave championship of the cause
and welfare of his troops. That is ex-
actly what it is, but that is exactly
what Mr.. Mckinley does not want it
10 appear 10 De. ne Ndo uOl 81 duu
ated in the Ohio school of politics
without getting his eye-teeth cut.
Hence, if Alger, COrbin ct al, back
ed by the Armours, can bring enough
testimony to bear to discredit Miles's
charges regarding the embalmed beef,
that blunt old soldier will be deposed
in disgrace and superseded by more
tractable person; but, on the other
hand. if Miles should prove his charges
by overwhelming evidence too much
for Alger and the Armours to combat,
why, bless you, the President will
stand before the country as a cham
pion of the truth no matter how dis
tasteful to him.
Plainly, it is a game in which the
President cannot lose whether he shall
be successful in officially destroying
the man who is a growing menace to
his administration or not.
