THE CITY DEBT AND THE RING.
The esteemed Intelligencer has the
following excellent and intelligent
comment on the city debt statement:

During the past year steady progress
has been made in the reduction of the
bonded Indebtedness. Four years ago 1t
footed up $1242T 755; now it is $3.50, $50. GA, a
decrease in four years of S15l. 1861. Four
years ago the debt bore interest amount
ing annually TO 81, 80; now the interest
dened with $E.0 80 less interest charges
than had to be provided four years ago.
This is showing of direct interest to the
taxpayers of the city. Many cities of
Wheeiing's size are handicapped by bonded
debts much heavier than ours, so heavy,
in fact, that their ruling bodies are per-
picked annually to arrange the interest
charges. Wheeling is now rapidly wiping
out her debt, and revenue that was for
merly used each year in recompenSing
capital is now applied to needed public
improvements.
There is only one thing wrong with
this statement of fact. 1t does not go
far enough, but stops short of the most
interesting feature of the situation.
The ring organ does not state the most
prominent fact in connection with this
showing of the excellent financial con-
shape in which the city debt is at
present, namely, that this condition is
due, not to the good management of
the city ring, but because the people
refused to permit the ring to manage
the debt according to the ring plan
that of refunding it for a period of
ten years merely to give the ring more
money to spend in needless eXtrava-
gance.
The Intelligencer vigorously support
ed this refunding ordinance year or
so ago, when it was defeated through
the single-handed efforts of the Reg
lister, backed by the people. At that
time the organ talked in very diff
ferent strain regarding the ACCESSIBILITY
of getting rid of the city's in,
debtedness, and if that ordin-
ance had been adopted, the said
organ would not have the present
opportunity to comment on the excel
lent showing with regard to the condi-
ton of the city's finances, which we
stopped payment on the city debt a
year ago-eXcepting interest, which
would have run merrily on as usual
and we would owe as much to-day
as a year ago and the same debt, as
large as ever, would confront us
ten years hence although a vast sum
would have been paid in interest
charges.
In admitting the excellence of the
condition of the city's finances, the
ring organ confesses that the Register
and the people were right in defeating
the rings refunding proposition, and
that the city is in good financial shape
not because of, but in spite of, the ring.

THE BATTLE AT THE CAPITAL.

Wetzel Democrat.
AT this time the Charleston warriors
are skirmishing for position. 1t looks
now as if the Democrats would organ
ize the House and the Republicans the
Senate. Pierson and Getzendanner will
be seated in the Senate in spite of law
and the Constitution. When such ad-
vice is given to any body of men as
Secretary Dawson and Collector
White gave to the Republicans, you
may expect things to take a plunge in
to the slough of degradation unless
such advice goes unheeded. The Demo-
Gratis are yet maintaining themselves
with dignity. They are under serious
disadvantages and should not and will
not attempt anything revolutionary
This is not the last Legislature which
will meet in West Virginia. The next
one will be so Democratic that nobody
can make any mistakes. 1t will not do
for such men as now seem to be lead
ing the Republican party to be in
power. They are a constant menace to
the public peace. They are dangerous
to the public safety. They lack that
level headed judgment which people
ordinarily term common sense.

the other thing, tor the President pro.

the other thing, for the President pro-
poses to hold onto these antipodean
islands of the China sea with the grip
of grim death, for, 10, the policy of
brute Imperialism and annexation by
military force is the policy of Messrs
Hanna and Elkins and Wall street and,
hence, of William Mckinley, although
the latter year ago solemnly declared
that such would be CRIMINAL AG-
GRESSION.'
The next time our neighbor makes a
discovery concerning the administra-
tons policy it should be sure it is
backed by better administration au-
thority than one Joseph Benson For
aker, of Ohio, who has long been sus-
pected of carrying a snickersnee up his
sleeve for use under the fifth rib of Will

The work of unseating members of the
West Virginia Legislature has been begun
by the Democrats.-Pitt sburg Dispatch.
Again we are compelled to correct
our contemporary. The work of I'M
seating members was begun by the
Republican Secretary of State, who re-
fused enrolment to legally elected
Democrats possessing regular certifi-
Gates of election, and gave their seats
to defeated Republicans who possessed
no certificates, thereby grossly exceed
ing his powers and committing plain
breach of the law.

by its bristly black pompadour, has
been coveted by the Spaniards for sew
eral years, and for long time any
traitor to the insurgent cause who de-
sired to pick up $4,000 could have
done so by presenting himself at Ma.
Mia with the head of Aguinaldo care
fully concealed about his person. But
Aguinaldo has thus far shown a de-
cided reluctance to parting with his
head, and though it has been some
what swelled by his numerous victories
over the Spaniards it is still safe and
sound upon his shoulders.

A NEW PICTURE OF
GENERAL AGUiNAiDO.

Many pictures have been printed of
Genral Emilio Aguinaldo, president Of
the so-called Filipino republic, but the
accompanying picture of the famous
Philippine insurgent, taken from the
Wave, is probably the best that has
thus far appeared. Aguinaldo is de-
scribed as quiet little man in spot
less linen, who is very ambitious, very
proud, very diplomatic, very fond Of
show and very much afraid of assassi-
nation. His well formed head, crowned

The news of the death of Congress
man Nelson Dingley will be received
with deep regret by the country, which
had begun to hope the Maine statesman
would win his plucky struggle with
death. His political enemies as we'll
as his political friends will mourn his
untimely taking off, for Mr.. Dingley
was recognized by all as man of high
personal worth and unimpeachable in
tegrity, the honesty of whose motives
was never questioned.

SENATOR NELSON WHITAKER.
Charleston Gazette.

Charleston Gazette.
The light headed and revolutionary man
ayers of the Republican machine who are
assembled in Charleston at this time and
are acting under the direction of Senator
Elkins, paid Hon. Nelson E. Whitaker a
very high compliment by the brutal man
ner in which they ordered him turned
down. They had no use for a man of
broad intellect. of judicial and fair mind.

officer of the Senate, and neither had Boss
Elkins. They wanted a man of their own
calibre. narrow and selfish and willing to

sISTIC MUD-SLINGING.

5mmissary General Eagans re-
kable command of mud is calcu-
to excite the admiration of
Pnts Of billingsgate and to entitle
Commissary General to honorary
bership in the slums fraternity of
kty in the world.
EeAlAEagan devoted half column
of newspapey, space to calling Gen.
Miles liar. He read his astounding
official statement to the war investi-
eating commission from manuscript,
SO that it was not an impuIsive state
ment uttered in heat of passion. In it
he called Gen. Miles more kinds of
liar than most people supposed existed
even in the palmy days of Ananias.
Seriously, Gen. Eagan very greatly
&and grayely prejudiced his case by his
Extraordinary use of backguardism
and mud and established against him
self at once a Pr IA facia case of con-
duct unbecomin IN officer and a gen
tleman. It I'D cause his summary
| dismissal ON vthe army. No man
capaN16f usingt such language, espe-
~ n Concerning the head of the army
I'D in an officiaH document, should be
permitted to we(r the uniform of the
United States a minute longer than is
necessary to emove his shoulder
straps and buttons. Regardless of the
merits of the controversy between him
and Gen. Miles, Eagan should be sum-
marily drummedl out of the service for
his indecent attbck ON his superior Of
ficer He is disgrace to the service,
whose standard must be considerably
lowered in the |eyes of the world if he
is accepted as a fair specimen of the
American army officer.
Gen. Miles very properly declined to
reply to EagaH, who will doubtless be
turned over tot a eourt-martial
In this connection, it is interesting to
know that Gen. Miles has received a
letter from Gov. Roosevelt, who stated
that supply o1beef in the shape of
quarters was put on the vessel in which
he went to Cuba, to be tried. 1t was
supposed to have been subjected to
some preparation to preserve it, but it
became so putrid that 1t had to be
thrown overheard Gov. Roosevelt
also said that the tin roast beef was
unpalatable, and his men could hardly
eat fifth of it.
AS Gov Roosevelt, also, speaks of
the "emblamed beef" as an experiment
and substantially repeats Gen. Miles's
testimony, it is in order for Gen. Eagan
to level his mud batteries at Gov.
Roosevelt We would advise him not
to, however, for the gallant ex-rough
rider, possibly lacking the discretion
as we'll as the years of the old Indian
Fighter might hop on a Washington
bound train and pay his compliments
personally to Gen. pagan in manner
that would thoroughly remove what
ever accumulation of dust there might
be in that dncer's uniform.
