fell in behind the carriage and was fol-
lowed by the Seventy-first Regiment.
The police had cleared the entrance
to the ferry, and as the head of the line
reached there General Smith and his
staff took the right of line, with the
Second Battery, while the mounted po-
lice took the left. The Seventy-frst
Regiment took company front forma-
ton along Twenty-fourth street, reach
ing from the ferry nearly to Eighth
avenue, and presented arms as the
caisson passed. Upon the arrival at the
ferry the different regiments left for
their armories.
The caisson and carriages, with the
honorary and military pail bearers and
the body bearers took a ferry boat for
the 1 o'clock train for washington.
Upon reaching Jel1ey City the body
was carried to the train The family
and Lieutenants Mott and Traub took
a parlor car. Three of the honorary
pail bearers also went to Washington
to act as an escort there. They were

MR. sCHuRz ON OHIO POLITICS.

The Hon. Carl Schurz supported Mr..
Mckinley on the coinage issue in 1896
and is opposed to free coinage as
strongly now as then, but he is also
opposed to the imperial policy of Mark
Hanna and the administration. He has
been making some telling speeches in
the West against the un-American pol
icy of the administration in the Phil
ippines and was invited by the Germans
OF Cincinnati to make a speech on that
subject there, which, however, he was
unable to do because of prior claims
upon his time. Une of the German
papers of Cincinnati, however, thinks
the silver question is still of paramount
Importance and it says:
practical people are of the opinion that
Mr.. Schurz could be Of greater service to
the country if he would come to Ohio
and again fight the silver swindle instead
of working into the hands of the free com
ers by placing annexation into The fore
ground. For it is fact free coinage
represents a greater danger than annex
alton
Replying to this in a letter from
New York Mr.. Sehurz writes for the
benefit of the Germans in Ohio:

can say of me that / undervalue the dan
ger that may arise from free coinage. But

HANNA. THE FRIEND OF LABOR"

Boss Hanna is having terribly hard
time posing as the only original friend
ct the laboring man. To substantiate
his claims his managers are compelled
to resort to some queer" methods.
Their latest effort is circular endor-
sing Hanna's attitude toward his la
Dor, among the signatures to which
appears the name of Thomas H. Lewis,
Secretary of the United Mine Work
ers' Association. Now it happens that
Mr.. Lewis lives just across the river
in Bridgeport and he has the following
to say concerning this circular: at IS
merely a reprint of similar circular
issued two years ago, to which my
name was signed without my permits

it then until it was presented to me by
friends, and then declared my signature
forgery. This latest circular has not
even the merit of being new. 1t is on
ly reprint of the first forgery"
1t is by such fraudulent methods
that Hanna, the arch enemy Of Amer
lean labor, is trying to ensnare the
working men of Ohio. The plan though
quite Hannaesque, is evidence to what
straits the Hanna managers are re-
duced.

West Virginia postmasters are kick
ing on the assessments levied on them
to help the administration out of the
Ohio hole. They can console them
selves that they do not stand alone,
however. Hanna is calling on the
postmasters for voluntary" contribu-
tons as far away as the Pacific coast,
whence, from the columns of the Port
land Oregonian, comes a similar kick
against the Ohio demands for Doodle.

HENRY G. DAVIS FOR GOVERNOR.


article from the Monroe Waterman
stJ ongly advocating the nomination Oh
Hon. Henry G. Davis for Governor by
the Democratic party. Our able con-
temporary does not leave much to be
said in the way of strengthening this
nlea to the Democracy for the nominal
ton next year of this leading and typl-
cal West Virginia Democrat and great
captain of industry. Suffice It TO say
that Mr.. Davis has done more for the
development of this State and the bet
terment of the condition of her people
than probably any other one man.
What he has done has benefited the
State and its people even more than IT
has advanced his own private fortunes.
What he has the State has, also. His
vast productive properties are in West
Virginia, to the support of whose gov
eminent and public institutions they
contribute handsomely, besides provid-
ing thousands of our citizens a livell-
hood One of the pioneers of West
Virginia development, and rugged and
firm as her hills in his Democracy, Mr..
Davis is we'll named by our contempt
rary the grand old man of the Noun
tain State. AS to his ability to fill any
office in the gift Of the people-of State
or nation-the history of his long and
honorable public career, during which
he has represented this State in both
houses of Congress and held high cabi
net office, is ample guarantee.
AS Governor of West Virginia Mr..
Davis would bring to that Office what
it has lacked of late years-dignity,
high sense of honor, brains, executive
ability, and firm and unselfish loyalty
to the best interests of the State and It's
people With the latter he has spent
his life, and with their needs no man
is better acquainted or would be mere
faithful in supplying.
With Henry G. Davis in the guberna-
torial chair at Charleston, there would
be tremendous revolution in our gov
ernmental affairs, which are now run
in any fashion and solely in the inter
ests of a selfish political coterie. who
have no thought or care beyond their
own selfish ambitions and none for the
welfare of the State or its people.
The people know these things only
too well, and they would flock to the
support Of Henry G. Davis almost re-
CARELESS of party. so completely do they
recognize his unimpeaehable integrity
and his ability. His election would be
foregone conclusion against any man
whose nomination the politicians in
control of the Republican organization
would permit-for only one OF their
own ilk will be favored with that nomi-
nation.
Mr.. Davis's consent is all that is
needed, for we believe ne would be nom
mated by reclamation by the Democ-
racy.
The Register heartily seconds the
plea of the Monroe Watchman. Let the
Democracy name Hon. Henry G. Davis
and reclaim the State from bossism.
corruption and incompetency. Let us
strike sledge-hammer blow for purity
and business-like conduct of our affairs.

onment or fine not to exceed
$3.50, or both, upon anyone selling
such compounds under the guise of
butter No conviction under this act
appears on the judicial record.
If any one will hunt the town
through he will not find shop or a
store selling anything which looks like
butter, but Is not, and is marked In
plain letters what it really is. You
can sell oleomargarine, or any form
of bogus butter, but you must clearly
state what It is on the package. One
would think that no one committed so
heinous a crime as selling such stuff
But the custom house tables tell a diff
ferent tale.
During the year 1898 close to 100000
pounds of butter were imported into
the Hawaiian Islands, valued at $780,
1866 or an average of about 2S cents
a pound, while of butterine about 49,
900 pounds were imported, valued at
$12,041.54, or about IL cents a pound.
1t is curious fact that no oleomar-
garine is imported, though an analyst
might find it among the butter. There
is no doubt that "butterine" is not but
ter, yet you will find no butterine for
sale.
Now here is a clear case of the law
being quietly and calmly defied. 1t
has been apparently nobody's business
to find out where the butterine is sold,
but sold it is and put on the market
as butter. There should be no difficult
ty in locating it because it only re-
quires going to the custom house to
find out into whose hands it goes. This
law was on the statute book long be-
fore the pure food law, and the latter
should have strengthened it, but it
has lamentably failed to do so.
The Board of Health has plenty to
do if it will only do it, 1t ought to
set to work and clean the slums. It
ought to investigate into the cause for
having a death rate of SO per thousand
among Hawaiian children. 1t ought to
see that we have pure milk, pure gro
ceries, pure liquors and pure drugs. All
this and a great deal more it ought to
do, If it is to be of proper value to the
territory. 1t will not progress very far
if every time the president of the
board happens to be sick no meeting is
held No doubt the president is a most
important man, but the board of COM
posed of able gentlemen who are quite
capable of discussing these things and
ordering them to be attended to wheth-
er the president of the board is present
or not. If they are not so capable, why
they they better hand in their resigna-
tions and let some other people run
the board.
