the cause Of the strikers.
Mr.. Reid discussed the rights OF labor.

along this line for over half an hour aud
was followed by President ". D. Ma
hon. of Detroit. of the Amalgamated
Association Of Street Car Employees, vita
which organization the two Wheeling
locals are affiliated.
After discussing the strike and saying
that q combination of street railway
companies was fighting the snen in
Wheeling, Mr.. Mahon said the Wheel
Ing company was opposed to the men
organizing. as was the case with nll the
companies; that the strikers stood pre-

by the public could be charged solely to

first heard Of the accident. He boarded
the car and went down the Main street

men had been arrested.
Mr.. Ersklne said there was nothing to
show that this man had told Shaw and
Sampson to escape; nothing to show
that he knew Of the accident The
whole charge. he said. is wonderfully
vague and unjust.
. Mr.. Nesbitt admitted there was no
evidence against Whitman.
The squire discharged Whitman. and

The finance committees chairman,
Mr.. Waterhouse, said he and his aSso-
clates would be out to-day and to-mor-
row for the purpose of soliciting the
funds needed to defray the expenses Of
the demonstration. 1t Is thought 1900
to S4G0 will be required, and doubtless
everybody in the business district will
lend helping hand and make the task
Of the finance committee an easy one.
Everybody knows the returning soldier
boys are deserving OF warm and en-
thuslastic welcome, and with this senti-
ment so general the committees having
charge Of the demonstration ought to
meet with few or no obstacles.
On motion Of MIR. McGregor, the COM
mittee extends cordial invitation 10 all
organizations in the city and surround
ing towns to turn out next week IN
honor Of the "Immunes." and organiza-
lions deciding to turn out are earnestly
requested to notify the chairman OF the
parade committee, or the secretary of
the general committee, at as early q
date as possible. There Is not an abun-
dance Of time in which to arrange NIL
the details, but If all the organizations
act at once 1t will be an easy matter to
show the boys in blue a demonstration
that will surprise them.

The Mazst committee seems to be q.
bout through with their investigation Of
Boss Crocker's political methods and
will soon begin their investigation Of
Tom Platt, the republican boss Of New
York. THIS is highly proper course to
pursue. In their Investigations they
should not slight any of the political
bosses on account Of party affiliations.
By the time the mem oers Of this com
inlttee get through with Croker and
Platt, thsy will have gained an insight
into the political methods OF the boss
politicians Of the day that will qualify
them Tor successful political bosses. 1t
is to be hoped, however, that they will
put the results Of their Investigations to
better use.

do so. Ts call man traitor simply

names IS on. Of thes. ,nctor., athe per-.

names ss one Of these factors, "the per.
sonal unpopularity OF Senator Hanna In
certain parts Of the state" It says:
"As for Senator Hanna. his great serv-
ices to the party not only iu 1896 but in
1898 entltle him to grateful remember
ance by the republicans Of the whole
country, Ohio not excepted. but it must
be confessed that, in the political arena
OF his own state, he has shown very un-
fortunate aptitude for doing the wrong
thing at tho right time, and the right
thing in the wrong way. HIS lack OF
tact has chilled the political ardor Of
many republicans, and made not few
extremely bitter. Tho special friends Of
John Sherman and Of Governor Bushnell
can hardly see anything In the candidacy
OF Judge Nash for the governorship ex-
cept an opportunity to strike blow at
Hanna. Doubtless many OF them will
restrain themselves from seeking venge-
ance at the polls, but meantime their
lukewarmness III the campaign endangers
the ticket"
1t is certainly encouraging to learn
from leading republican newspaper
that Senator Hanna's CAM pajgn methods
have made him unpopular with many of
the republicans OF his own state. A de-
feat for the party in that state would
probably open the eyes of the party
leaders to the fact that the Hanna style
Of politics will not wear well with the

The Nebraska State Journal, says
Back Of fusion there is no principle" II
there is no more worthy object in view
than obtaining Office, then the Journals
Ut atement is correct, but the Journal
takes very untenable position II 1t un-
dertakes to say that no fusion OF political
parties 10 ever consummated for more
worthy purpose than the securing oi the
Spoils of office. In Nebraska, rs In Colo
RADIO, there have been, since 1896, three
political parties each Of wh,ch,ln ito party
platform, held the question Of the free
coinage Of silver to be Of psra mount i'm.
portance to all other issues before the
people. To unite the silver forces aud
strengthen their organization, these
parties have fused on their tickets and,
simply because they have fused on coun-
ty and state tickets as well Rs on their
presidential and national legislative
tickets, tue Journal would jump to the
conclusion that back OF this fusion there
is no principle. Success in the election
OF the party ticket strengthens the party
and three parties standing upon the same
platform, so far as the issue Of paramount
Importance is concerned, would certainly
be rscreant to their duty in behalf Of
this cause for which they had declared.
il they neglected or refused to take such
action ae would secure IL poasibla tha
election of friends Of the silver cause aud
back Of fusion consummated for suoh q
purpose there is principle, the statement
of the Journal to the contrary notwith-
standing There are u good many party
fusions back OF which there is no princi-
pie aud in which no other motive than
that Of Office 6Ru res but the Journals
statement is altogether too broad.

the personal opinions OF opponents on
questions OF national Importance is de
