THE REFuNDING ORDINANcE

The Refunding Ordinance did not
come up in Council last night and
therefore loses its standing and must
reappear as new business, when it may
again be side tricked on objection.
Evidently the scheme is not in as
good odor as before the Register show
ed it up in its true colors. In its pres
ent shape we do not think even the
power of the ring car force it through
Council
AS it stands it is largely measure
simply to cover up ring extravaganza
and pave the way to further extrava-
gance by refunding almost the entire
municipal indebtedness and stopping
payment on the principal for ten years.
The people have voted down such a
scheme and would vote it down again.
The people will not object, however,
to a legitimate refunding ordinance
having for its object the. refunding of
only such portion of the debt as must
be met during 1900, and which cannot
be met on time. The people will not
object to the refunding of the compro-
mise loan of $50, 900 which will fall due
July l next, and which the city will
not be able to meet. And they will not
object if there be included in the ordi-
nance loan of $4,000 or any other
sum in reason for the purchase of the
plant of the Wheeling Electrical Com
pany. Refund so much of the debt as
may be absolutely necessary and no
more, and provide for the city recov-
ering it's lost ground and again gaining
control of the natural. lighting monop-
oily, which must be done to save our
gas works with its costly electrical ad-
junct, but no refunding. simply to
cover up extravaganza and to open the
door to still further extravaganza.
To meet popular approval the refund
ing ordinance should not carry a
greater sum than $4,000, or at most
100000, nor include more than the
two items mentioned.

A BOMB FOR M'KINLEY,

The New York Sun, which has sup
planted its neighbor, the Tribune, as
chief administration organ of the coun-
try, has suddenly kicked up tremen-
dous rumpus in the camp of the adj
ministration Republicans by violently
spewing up the administration currency
policy as regards national banks, which
was too much for even the Suns stom-
ach.
The Sun has probably been frightened
by the extensive revelations, through
the Standard Oil Bank scandal, of adj
ministration favoritism for the national
bank ring, and it now comes out in
"double-leads" and calls upon Mr.. Nc
Kinley to ''Let the National Banks
Co."
The administration currency scheme
is scathingly attacked by the Sun,
especially the plan to refund the ma
tional debt in long time bonds, which
has for its sole object the perpetuation
of the national bank system.
The debt refunding scheme" de-
clares the Sun, (which the Senate fin
ance committee has attached to the
House currency bill, IS AvOWEDLY
INTENDED FOR THE BENEFIT OF
THE NATIONAL BANKS. 1t proposes
to create $S5O.O0OOOO of two per cent
thirty-five year bonds, in order. that the
banks may take out circulating notes
against them to their par value, paying
on the notes a tax of only " per cent
per annum, and clearing on them a
profit of 11s per cent per annum!"
This confession from high admins
tration authority reveals the secret.
The administration national bank
scheme, however, is but part and par
eel of the general scheme of imperial
rule by the money power. The Sun
adds:
"By the provisions of the national bank
act, the government not only guarantees
indirectly through its bonds the redemp-
ton of national bank currency, but UNDER
takes, directly, should any national bank
fail, to redeem its notes at once. selling the
bonds afterward to reimburse itself.
Furthermore, when any national bank,
for any reason, surrenders its circulation,
the notes thus surrendered become the
direct debt of the government. There are
now more than $36O0O,000 of such notes
outstanding.
The government also carries on the
work of engraving and printing the ma
tional bank notes. 1t also maintains at an
annual expense of over $4,000 the depart
ment of the comptroller of the currency
at Washington
The Sun demonstrates that even
State banks are preferable to this sys-
tenn, the continuance of which it be-
lieves will raise an issue on which the
Republican party will be defeated.
Of course, the Sun is in favor of the
firm establishment of the gold stand
ard, .on which it thinks all our money
ought to be based. So, it will be seen,
the Sun does not relinquish its latter
day Republicanism. 1t is simply SO
alarmed over the national bank scan
dial that it would destroy the whole ma
tional bank system.

MUSICAL.


The concert given at the English Luth-

the Home for Aged and Friend1ess Wom-
en-, was largely attended, and the pro-
gramme, heretofore published, was render
ed throughout with skill and judgment. Mr.
Ecker early in the evening proved himself
a master of the organ, and during his pro-
gress through the programme the satisfac-
ton of his listeners was shown by the
frequent demands for encores. Miss Arndt,
soprano, and Mr.. Freemantle, tenor, con-
tributed essentially to the evenings sue
cess. but there was a feeling on the part
of some present that the vocal selections
were not quite in harmony with the organ
recital. This does not imply, however that
there was any room for criticism as to the
rendition
This evening at half-past eight O'Clock
the Woman's Musical Club will give its
first open concert of the season at I. o.

evening will be Miss Gertrude Reister and

Joubert is an able commander dn-chief
to whose strategic ability and shrewd-
ness and personal activity in the CAM
paign is doubtless due most of the bril-
liam Boer victories over the trained
British soldiery
Americans, especially West Virgin
ians, are peculiarly interested in Jou-
bert because it is persistently stated
that he Is native of West Virginia,
hailing from Fayette county, where it
is said he lived in the coke regions
until manhood, thence drifting to the
Transvaal, where he steadily rose. AT
Majuba Hill, where the British were SO
signally defeated in the eighties, Jou-
bert, who took part in that battle, be-
came hero and was promoted to the
Office of commander-in-chief.
1t is said that he learned military
tactics under Gen. "Stonewall' Jackson
in the Confederate army.
The present campaign has been a
peculiarly unlucky one for Gen. Jou-
bert, but it is to be hoped he will live
and continue to enjoy the fruits of the
freedom for which he and his people
are so ably and CALAMITY battling.

The preliminary report of the re-
assessment OF realty IN Ohio county,
under the decennial law, is well calcu-
lated to carry dismay to. the hearts of
the taxpayers. The six city districts,
for which the books have been return
ed, show an increase of over two and
one-half millions, and this will be in
creased to three millions when the
country districts are heard from. In
the face of this increased valuation
property will not now sell for what it
would in 1892, except, perhaps, in the
restricted retail business district of the
city. The County Board of Equaliza-
ton and Appeals certainly has some
work cut out for it.

THE ADMINISTRATION SIDE.
REGISTER
wheeling, w. Va.

Senator Beveridge yesterday made
his much heralded speech voicing the
administrations side of the Philip
pines business and give a final and
what he fondly believed to be a
conclusive answer to the myriad critics
of the imperial policy.
The speech Is in reply to that deliv-
cred by Senator Hoar and has been,
as stated, much heralded by the adj
ministration press as making clear
with regard to the administration pol
icy what has heretofore purposely
been kept by the indecisive and shifty
Mr.. Mckinley in sad state of fog
and fiddle.
Mr.. Beveridge is very young man.
He is fiery, untamed and eloquent. He
is probably the original imperialist,
antedating Mr. McKinley's flop to that
The keynote of his speech is found in
its opening lines: "The Philippines are
ours forever"
The un-American policy of expan-
sion in Asia and outside the Monroe
Doctrine is enlarged upon and de-
Tended as ably as possible by the elo-
quent young Indianian, who seems so
proud of the new and sounding title of
Imperialist!-

however. Mr.. Beveridge is shrewd
enough to appeal to the strong Amer
lean sense of trade and enlarge upon
the possibilities of it's expansion in the
Orient, in China, of which he says the
Philippines is the key.
In this appeal to the pocket nerve
Mr.. Beveridge is shrewd. but he ar

Uses, or rather from no premises at all,
for on this point there is no difference
between the policies of the admins
tration and of the Democracy, the
latter going quite as far in retaining
every advantage from a trade point of
view as the imperialists can possibly
go.
In this connection, also, Senator Bev-
eridge fails utterly to show why it is
necessary for the United States to alb
solutely own and govern and be
wholly responsible for the entire Phil
ippines archipelago, with its alien and
rebellious population, in order to re-
tain these. trade advantages. He does
not show it. because it cannot be
shown.
On the other hand, the Democratic
policy, by retaining ample naval, coal
ing and supply stations, as we'll as all
necessary harbors, demanding en-
try for American goods to all Phil
ippines ports free of tariffs and then
in due time leaving the islands under
a proper American protectorate to the
government of their people-who
Dewey says are better fitted for self
government than the Cubans-would
not only retain to the United States all
the trade advantages in the Philip
pines or the Orient which complete
ownership of the archipelago could
give, but would accomplish this object
without involving our government in
costly imperial policy, whose ire
mendous military burden all our trade
advantages could not begin to compen-

Moreover, the Democratic policy
would not sacrifice any American
principle.
