THE COMPLAINTS OF THE NomITEs.

The continuous charges OF fraud
against the transportation companies,
on the part of returned Nomites, is get
ting monotonous. These gold. seekers
would have little to say II they had
succeeded in getting from five TO a
hundred thousand dollars the start Of
the rest Of their fellowmen. As they
failed there must be some vent for their
disappointment.
They should pocket their experiences,
as the poker players say "ante up and
look pleasant" and we will all wish
them better luck next time. While
many good industrious men went TO
Nome and deserve a fair share Of
prosperity, there was a number of
adventurers who are expecting windfalls
at the hands Of Providence all the time,
and they may be happy to be cured Of
that deluslOn.
They will have something to howl
about as long an they live, and they
ought to be permitted to howl il il will
do them any good. But it would be far
more manly to settle right down to some
honest work, if it only paid rs cents a
day, and live on 80 cents a day, thus be.
coming solvent citizens, They have had
a taste Of the luxury OF speculative adj
venture, of which they will always have
interesting memories, but for this luxury
they owe the community, and their
families that have made sacrifices for
them, all the closer devotion TO industry.

was defeated as he deserved
Since then the country has been com
mittcd to the gold standard, and as the
, financial and revenue policies of the
country should not be changed every
few years, THE JOURNAL has taken the
position that the monetary and tariff
policy Of the country has been settled
for a period of years at least, and that
the newer issues Of trusts end expan.
sion will decide this presidential elec
ton. These are very important matters.
How far we shauld attempt TO control
organizations Of capital and great indus
tries is an open question, and both the
Republican and the Democratic plat.
forms take grounds for control, though
we think the Bryan platform and Mr..
Bryan's record and utterances are more
specific than McKinley's.
What the foreign policy of the Ameri.
can people should be, there is the great
issue. While THE JOURNAL upheld the
administration in its conduct Of the war
from the first move toward expelling
Spain from Cuba, even unto quelling the
insurrection in the PHILIPPINES, and it
takes hopeful optimistic view as to the
final outcome Of the problems growing
out Of the war with Spain, il believes
Mr.. Bryan is right in opposing the hold.

territorial form of government and fin

They can never properly come under the
provisions Of the constitution. They
cannot remain under the American flag
as colonial dependencies or subjected
races. This is serious problem for any
American administration TO deal with
and whoever is elected president will be
entitled to the support of all intelligent
citizens.
When Mark Hanna and his crowd
make their appeal almost exclusively -
what they are pleased TO call the busi-

well for thinking people to see that the
laboring and producing class have some

The Wheeling ministers who are
connected with the Federation of
Churches, are very much pleased over
the decision rendered by Judge j. M.
jackson in the Wood couny criminal
court Monday. Judge Jackson holds
that a slot machine is a gambling de-
vice, and thereby establishes a prece-
dent which the Federation regards as
very valuable in the war it has started
against the slot machine in this city.
1t is a well-known fact that prom
inent members of the Ohio county bar
have been divided in their opinion as
to whether or not the slot machine
falls under the statutes defining gam
bling devices. This division of senti-
ment still exists. The Prosecuting At
torney is understood to have expressed
the opinion that the slot machine is
not gambling device under a proper
construction of the laws of West Vir
ginia pertaining to gambling.
Judge JackSOn'S decision is the first
declaration from the bench on this
subject 1t was made upon test
case in Parkersburg. AS a matter of
course. Judge Jackson's decision is
not final, as a construction of the law,
and it remains to be seen what weight
it will have, and what effect it will
have upon the anti-slot machine agi-
tation here.
"The Federation of churches will Sc
cure all the advantage there is in that
decision" said DR.. Sooy to a Register
reporter. ut is just in line with our
contention all along
"Will the ministers now proceed to
indict persons who operate slot ma
chinese"
1T will be a long time until an
other grand jury meets" was the
rather evasive answer of DR.. Sooy.
'Will the Federation. at its next
meeting, probably take some steps
based upon the decision of Judge jack
SOM"
Il cannot say as to that. The Fed
Grafton will meet next week. We
have, SO many other important matters
Oh hand that we may do nothing in the
slot machine matter" said DR.. Sooy.
will you say anything for publ
cation concerning the other important
matters to which you refer?"
"Well, not at this time"

Cnnt. nv. A. MCCOY.

The subject of this sketch was born
in Ohio county, West Virginia, Sep
TENDER &c, 1889; died at Woodsdale,
w. Va, March 4, 1900.
He entered the United States service
August 80. 1861, at Parkersburg, w.
Va, when not quite % years of age.
From a private in the ranks he. was
promoted until he became captain OF
Company C, First Regular Virginia
cavalry. Among the many engage
ments in which he fought We recall
Monterey, Cedar Mountain, second bat
tie Bull Run. and Warrenton Junction.
Va. At the latter place he was severe
ly wounded. May 3, 1868, the ball pene-
trating the left lung near the heart
and passing entirely through the body.
After leave of absence of but thirty
days, though weak and emaciated from
the effects of the wound, he re-entered
the service. Enervated by repeated
hemorrhages, he resigned October,
1864, at which time he was commits
stoned major.
No Drawer soldier nor truer patriot
ever fought on the field of battle.
He was Deputy Sheriff of Ohio coun-
ty for FIVE years under the late Sheriff
Brown, and superintendent of the
County Infirmary four years, his term
expiring about one year ago.
In both positions he discharged the
duties of his office with great credit
to himself and with perfect satisfac-
ton to his constituency.
Capt. Mccoy married Sevena r.
Horne. February 20. 1864. The widow
and FIVE children, four sons and one
daughter, survive him.
AS a soldier he knew no fear: as a
civil officer his record is unsullied; as
a Christian his character is spotless;
as a husband and father his counsel
was wise, his example inspiring. and
his devotion to his family pure and af-
fectionate.

Longfellow, let us say

Milk White Flag.
Hoyt's clever satire on our Boys in
Blue" entitled "A Milk White Flag"
is proving itself a perennial favor
lite, as each season sees it more
strongly entrenched in the good
graces of theatre goers. There is
vigor and dash about the performance
that does not permit the fun to flag
for single instant of the two ana
one-haf hours performance. Arthur
Hoyt has condensed his situations
and speeches, and his rapid fire wit
plays continued tattoo upon the ris-
Utilities of the audiences. The satire
is keen, but kindly, and the fun has
no tincture of gall A person can sit
out the performance without feeling
that he has wasted any time The
company is large one, numbering
fifty people. and comes to the Opera
House this evening. The advance
sale of seats, which opened yesterday,
indicates that there will be large
audinece.

will appears here on Thursday even
ing presenting a magnificent scenic
production of his latest success, "The

headed by the beautiful and versatile
actress, Miss Adelaide Prince, of
whom and Mr.. Clarke as well, some
one recently wrote as follows: Mr..
Creston Clarke claims his dramatic
inheritance from two of the best
known named in American theatrical
history. His father was the celebrat-
ed comedian, the late John S. Clarke,

Eugene st. Myers, of 410 Market
street, a Pennsylvania railroad freight
conductor, was the victim of serious
accident yesterday morning about nine
o'clock which may result fatally. He
was working with the yard crew at
the time in the company's yards south
of the creek. The crew was distrubut-
ing cars through the yard which had
come in the night before. At the
south end Of the creek bridge st.
Myers attempted to uncouple in order
to make a running switch. In some
manner his glove caught in
the coupling and he was
dragged off the platform and
under the wheels of the moving
section of the train which had been
switched off. His left arm was run
over and cut off close up to the body,
three cars passing over 1t. He also
suffered a compound fracture of the
left leg and several other minor hurts.
The injured man was removed to
the City Hospital in the ambulance
and the case was taken charge OF by
DR.. Frank Hupp. 1t was found to be
necessary to amputate the left arm.
taking if off close to the shoulder, ind
the fracture in tho lower limb was re-
duced. ST. Myers babe good by to
everyone present whom he knew, say
ing that he had seen too many sim
liar cases not to recognize thai his
injuries would prove fatal
At six o'clock, in response to IN
quiries at the hospital regarding his
condition, it was given out that he was
still living. Recovery. however, was
very doubtful, as the patient was suf-
fering very much from the shock.

The Heart of Chicago.

''The Heart of Chicago" offers
enough scenic inducements to make
it worth while seeing. The plot itself
is said to be of more than ordinary
merit. OF course it appeals to those
who dote on sensationalism, but it is
said in it's favor that it's sensational
incidents while exciting in the ex-
IRENE are perfectly logical and follow
as natural sequence to the portions
of the story already revealed. The
author is said to have been particular
ly fortunate in his comedy situations.
Among the scenic features are a re-
presentation of the downtown dis
trict of Chicago during the great fire,
a night illumination in the Court of
Honor at the Worlds Fair grounds, a
new railroad scene unlike any other
ever presented, the Masonic Temple
roof garden at night, and a complete
panoramic view of the business por-
ton of the south side at night. The
play opens at the Grand Thursday
