England.
Saturday evening a young man by the
name of Ben1e4d was shot in the arm
by n OF a drunken crowd that was
annoying the public, and as they pass
ea the c. l.. & Nv. depot the trouble

here mex Thursday evening and Hon.

speaker. Judge Patrick is a popular
favorite in this section and run sew

FROM OVER THE SEA.
An Aged freshman Who is a Close
Observer of American Politics ana
n Democratic SympathiZer.

| a DPmOGfHIIc SyT1VathiHOIs
Mrs. James F. Adams, of this city,
has received a letter from her father,
James Murphy, of Dungimmon, County
Meath, ireland. g Mr.. Murphy is Is
years of age. He is a close observer
of American politics, and takes an act
i've interest in the. present campaign.
The following extract from his letter
will be interesting, as showing how
Irishmen look upon the struggle:
Our elections are over, and the
Tories. as we call them here, are again
in with az big majority after crushing
the poor Beers. It's the most unjust
war that ever was waged by England
| against a free people, who only fought
for their homesteads. All the Irish
were against it here, but we are the
weaker party now; we can do nothing
but grin and pay.
Imperialism is spreading, and fear
that Mckinley, England's friend, will
succeed in securing a second term OF
office. He is descended from the But
Ter stock, who employed the Indians
to butcher the people of Wyoming in
the wal Of independence. Have not
the American people enough territory
at home? Why don't you take Canada,
Guatemala, Venezuela, etc, from the
v%ulture grasp of England? / tell you
plainly, your country is in great danger
! of being disrupted, and your independ-
ence frittered away by English in
trigue. See how ancient Rome fell
after the perpetual dictatorship of
Sylla.
You are friends of England, see,
but it seems you all forget how Eng
land treated you in the war of seces-
sion; but | am sick and tired of how
things are carried IN, and will in my
closing days never expect any good for
my poor, impoverished country"

The Intelligencer has been as narrow
in its p~artisanship, as unfair in its
treatment Of Democrats during the pre-
sent campaign, as the most rabid Re-
publican leader could desire. 1t has ig-
nored the fact that even a party organ
should publish the news. Upon the ex-
ceedingly rare instances when Demo-
cratic leaders or Democratic meetings
have been mentioned in its columns, it
has resorted to tftuperation al abuse,
palpable distortion of facts, and wilful
and deliberate Misrepresentation. Small
Republican meetings have been made
to appear as Large and enthusiastic"
Every Democratic rally, great or small,
has been a frost. If the word frost"
were eliminated from the vocabulary
of the political editor. he would indeed
be in a sad plight. Everything with a
Democratic tinge has been viewed
through highly colored partisan glasses,
which distort when they do not minify.

The report of the meeting at the
Grand Opera House Friday night fur
nishes a case in point. An effort was
made to convey the impression that
Hon. Bourke Cochran did not keep his
appointment because, forsooth, the In
telligencer published an editorial attack
upon him. Possibly the organ will
this morning publish a cartoon depict
ing Cochran fleeing terror-stricken
from the Intelligencer. Then it was
stated that the theatre was comfort
ably filed whereas it was crowded to
the doors. The statement that the au-
dience rapidly diminished in size as
DR.. Sample proceeded, is deliberate mis-
representation. The theatre was still
crowded beyond it's seating capacity
when he closed, Notwithstanding the
lateness of the hour. Comments upon
the speech are clearly disproven in the
Register report of what DR.. Sample
really said. "All in all, it was a frost"
says the 1ntelligencer, reaching the
climax of partisan bitterness and men
dacity in that pet phrase.
The bad breaks of Senator n. B. Scott
at the Roosevelt banquet in New York,
occasioned very little surprise in
Wheeling. SCOTS views are generally
understood here, and those who credit
ed him with better judgment than to
give public expression to them are sat-
| isfied with the explanation that he did
not know there were any newspaper re-
porters present.
'fWhy, Scott favors trusts" said a
prominent Republican yesterday, both
in act and speech, and in that respect
he is simply in line with the leaders
of his party. 1T was simply his mis-
fortune that a newspaper reported heard
what was only intended for the ears
of the big political leaders. Scott
brought about the sale Of the Central
to the glass trust, and his views about
| IllG ulSIlLS vi lluolo SChOloAy O. AZ
| changed since then. His declaration
| should not cause any surprise here, al
though he is rather too blunt in speech
to be a successful politician, and his
statement at the Roosevelt banquet
will probably hurt us some"
The colored voters, some of whom
have been strong supporters OF Scott
| in the past, are not at all pleased with
the Senator's remark about West Viz
| ginia, where the negro is on the fence
waiting to be bought" Some of them
are inclined to strongly resent the IN
situation that they are purchaseable,
and they say that it is rank ingratitude
in view of their long and unwaVerlng
| allegiance to the party.

1t is understood that the Republicans
are making a final poll of Ohio county,
and that the voters have been divided
into blocks of fifteen in order that more
time may be devoted to ascertaining
positively the political leanings of
doubtful voters. The scheme is excel
lent, but some of the methods of bring
ing about conversions, after the poll
tical faith is ascertained, are repre-
hensible and eve criminal.
The Register was yesterday given in
formation concerning Republican meth
DDS, by a gentleman who is in possess
sion Of the facts, and declares that he
proposes to bring them to- the attention
OF Judge Jackson, of the Federal Court.
Il won't mention Names" he said,
"but will designate the parties by let
tiers. b is employed by the Republican
kmanagers, and approaches A with a
statement that he has a block of fifteen
voters in his precinct, and that A being
classed as a doubtful Republican, he is
DESTROYS of reporting upon his case. A
says he is a Social Democrat, and pro-
poses to vote for Debs. Nothing more
was said. That much was legitimate.
ut happened, however, that C, the
manager of the plant at which A
works, called A into his office, and
stated that he was reliably informed
that A had changed his politics and
would vote for Debs. He told him he
was throwing his vote away. Then he
advised him to vote for Mckinley and
prosperity, and added that so sure as
w. J. Bryan is elected, A would be out
of a job, while the reverse would be
true if Mckinley were elected. A was
not intimidated, and will vote for Debs.
The scheme might work with weak
kneed voters, however, and it is high
time an example were made of employ
ers who try to coerce their employees"
The gentleman quoted stated that he
knew of two other similar instances Of
attempted intimidation.

1t is said that the Republican leaders
are at loggerheads about the conduct
of the present campaign in Ohio
ty, and that there have been some mis-
understandings resulting therefrom.
This lack of harmony is lamentable.
The local managers have succeeded in
getting many Of the recalcitants in
line, but some of them are still kick
ing. 1t is said that the visit of James
X. Hall, and his determination to re-
main here until after the election. is
the result of some dissatisfaction with
the conduct of the campaign by Mr..
Hornish.
