ical monster that strikes at the very foun-
dation of the social structure.
A crisis has been reached in this carnival
of lawlessness that calls for recognition
and prompt action upon the part of those
who minister to the moral advancement
of the young.
Nor is the Press alone, The Ledger. in
dorsing its Investigations and exposures,
describes conditions as they exist in the
city:
The pernicious policy traffic, by which
the poor are plundered and gambling in
nearly all its various forms appears TO
flourish without let or hirdrance while
disorderly houses of the vilest description,
speak-easies and pool rooms abound
throughout the city. Highway assaults
and robberies, burglaries. swindling
schemes of almost every sort grow more
frequent and fragrant day by day.
A city missionary among the Hebrews,
Rev. Moses Greenberg, is quoted as fol-
lows

lin, Paris, Vienna. Naples, London, and

To the Editor of the Register.
Sir: Please publish the enclosed clipping

reason of its applicability to this city, only
that Wheeling is worse than the worst
city in the land according to this clipping,

Illegal votes under a fraudulent registra-
ton is becoming a bright and shining
mark among cities of the country in the
way Of moral and political decadence. Its
municipal government is now at the lowest
ebb. In no city of the country-not even
in New Orleans when the Louisiana Lot
terry was in full blast-has gambling in the
way of policy traffic and other devices OBJ
tanned such a hold as in Philadelphia. It
has even penetrated the public schools un-
der the protection of the city administra-
ton. The fact is proven that the gamblers

things to equal what goes on In the neigh
borhood of this (the Lombard) police sta
ton of Philadelphia. Never have l seen
police and law breakers so openly asso-
eating as here and such fragrant con-
tempt for law.
All this IS the outcome Of Republican
machine politics. II has made the ballot
a mockery. the defender OF crime and the
prop and mainstay OF municipal adminis-
tration in the interest of gamblers, thugs
and thieves. This is no fancy sketch. The
evidence is presented by leading journals
of the party that profits most by the
criminal excuses of machine rule.

AIR FILLED WITH SMOKE.
An Abnormal Condition Of the Atmusphsr,
YESTERDAY.

An Abnormal Condition OF the Atmosphere
Yesterday.
The all-pervading haze OF the past
few days was not wholly that charac-
teristic of Indian summer, which is
won't to
Wrap all the landscape in its stlv'ry
folds
but was rather the product of forest
fires in the hilly and mountainous re-
gions within one hundred miles or so
of this city. There was distinct odor
of wood smoke in the air, and at times,
noticeably yesterday afternoon, there
was tingling of the eyes which could
come from no other cause. AS our
prevailing winds are from the west,
forest fires of some considerable mag
nitude must be burning in that direc-
ton, and we know that extensive tracts
have been burned over in Western
Pennsylvania and Northeastern West
Virginia. The smoke of such fires,
mingled with the impalpable dust con-
sequent upon the prolonged dry sea-
son, is often carried for hundreds of
miles at this season of the year, and it
appears to settle and remain in val
leys like that of the Ohio until dissi-
pated by rain or strong wind. For
several days past, here in Wheeling,
the sun has had little power, even in
the early afternoon, and in many bust
ness houses gas and electric light has
been in requisition all day long, while
out of doors even houses were indis-
tinguishable at a distance of half a
mile or less. Yesterday in particular
the conditions were almost as bad as
in that er-to-be-forgotten autumn
of 1871, the year of the Chicago fire,
when for several weeks what was call
ed daylight was merely an apology for
the real thing.

MUSICAL.

A musical recital was given in the
music hall at Mt de Chantal yester-
day afternoon which was eminently
successful. Although the first one Of
the present school year the young
ladies acquitted themselves with much
credit, showing an earnestness of pur-
pose which cannot fail in the attain
ment of good results later on.
