IDENTIFY a man OF great prominence and
value on the frontier He was mem
Der Of the convention Of Virginia which
ratified tho constitution of the United
States in 1888, and several times mem
Der OF the general assembly Of Virgin
ia. About the beginning Of the Revo-
lutionary war he removed from the
Valley OF Virginia. west Of the Ale
ghany Mountains, to q point near the
present city OF Elklns. now In Randolph
county West Virginia, where he con-
structed q fort for the protection OF
settlers against Indian incursions. and
from that time on, on what was then
the extreme western frontier, he serv-
ed his country in the most dangerous
and trying and useful way.
"As the particular service for which

TUESDAY. OCTOBER 2, 1900.

The Anaconda Standard this morning
has a mean article on the coal strike in
Pennsylvania in which it attempts to
give political coloring to the trouble and
cast suspicion on Senator Hanna's eff
forts to bring about a settlement. It
probably has not escaped the notice of
the strikers hat While Chairman Hanna
is trying to bring the strike to an n
and has already induced the coal barons
to offer the strikers a 10 per cent raise
in wages, Chairman Jones has not
raised his hand or voice in hat direc-
ton, but is depending on the continual
ton of the trouble to help elect Bryan
to the presidency, n Bryan himself is
trying to make political capital out of
the roubles of his fellow men. Anthra-
cite coal is on the free list, and no man
can show the strike is the result of re-
publican legislation. or chargeable to any
party. The Standards destinations
against Hanna, therefore, are baseless.
Besides, it may be noticed that the Ana
conda paper expresses no sympathy for
the strikers and discusses the strike only
as to it's political aspect.
