Preached Last Evening by Rev.

Posts and w. X. c.
Last evening at the German NJ. E.
church on the South Side, the pastor.
Rev. Louis Albinger, preached very
appropriate sermon to the members OF
the local posts of the G. A. R. and
Women's Relief Corps. In his re-
marks the minister very entertaining
ly gave experiences of soldier life dur
ing the war and paid a fitting tribute
to the memory of those who gave their
lives for the country. He also pointed
out the acknowledgement of the hand
of God in our History as a Christian
people and called attention to the oc-
casion being most appropriate for the
teaching and keeping of the life of pa
triotism.
Quite a number of the members OF
the G. A. r. assembled at l. o. o. F.
hall and headed by a drum corps,
marched to the church, where they
were met by the Ladies of the w. K.
c. The services were attended by a
large congregation and the pastors
sermon was much appreciated.

lie Editor of the Register:

To the Editor of the Register:
Slr:-I wish TO correct some mis-
statements which occurred in the eve
ming paper of Friday, May 25th. The
Young Mems Progressive Club was or
ganized about one year ago, and ac-
cording to its constitution should meet
once each month, but the club and the
negro is not considered factor in the
race of life until some one wants his
vote. Then if he dares to assert the
least satisfaction, it is soon seen
that he has no rights that are worth
respecting. The club was organized for
the general development of our peo-
pie. Out of it has grown a grocery
store situated at No. 1924 Market street
and a coal company, located in North
Wheeling. The main object of the
meeting of the oath was to elect Off

Two Runaways Yesterday.

Yesterday afternoon about three
o'clock a very serious runaway occur
red on Fourteenth street. Capt Billy
List had left his team OF spankirg
roadsters standing united while he de-
livered a message at a residence on
Fourteenth street above Jacob. The
horses became frightened and ran
away. Just below Eoff street the team
struck the buggy belonging to DR..
Hupp, smashing it to kindling wood
One of the runaways was torn loose
from the harness and thrown, the
other continuing on with what was
left of the buggy. The horse that was
thrown, was badly bruised, and the
harness and buggy damaged

Willie Collier.

Willie Collier and his COMPANY of
comedians will appear at Wheeling
Park Casino May 31st and June list, at
the Elks benefit. Collier has added
much to his reputation as a comedian
with his new play "Mr. Smooth, .
which will be presented here. He
needs little recommendation from the
theatre-goers in this city, as he is al
ready well known and well liked here.
In Mr.. Smooth he appears as an au-
thor as well as an actor for he wrote
the play himself The piece is a farce
Of the broadcast kind and thoroughly
original both in plot and atmosphere.
and quite unlike anything that has
been seen here before. Amy Leslie,
the well known writer Of the Chicago
News, began her review of the piece by
saying: Mr. Smooth is the funniest
farce since Hoyt wrote "A Rag Baby. .
The production which will be given is
said to be most elaborate one and
the supporting company, judging by
the names in the cast, is far above the
average. Seats now on sale at j. w.
Grubb's jewelry store.

dence has united in the unity of spirit
and the bond of peace this great peo-
pie and we know no North or South,
for we are one-'one in charity or,
rather, let us express it, one in love-
for love pays tribute to the brave men
who fell fighting for a cause they be-
lieyed TO be right. In keeping Memoir
ial Day it reminds US of conflicts, in
which were arrayed brother against
brother, and father against father, and
yet, blessed be God, we believe that
the peace of Appomattox Is to be an
eternal peace within the borders of our
land. This day the North and South
were united in the holy bond of unity
and spirit and on Memorial Day they
may be seen hand in hand going to the
cities of the dead. where they pay
tributes of love upon the graves of the
blue and gray alike. So we see the
spirit that must penetrate the women
of the North and South alike.
In referring to the admonition as
recorded in Ephesians iv. AZ: And be

for Christs sake has forgiven you"

From Missouri,s Grand Old Man.

WARRENsBURe, Mo-, Nov. To-
Senator Cockrell has received from the
New York Journal the following in.
quiry: "What should be done for the
reconstruction Of the Democratic
party"
The North American OF Philadelphia
has telegraphed him as follows: ION
what issues and along what lines
should the Democratic party reorgan-
ize."
Senator Cockrell replied to the New
York Journals query "The Demo
cratic party has survived a century Of
constitutional existence by adhering
TO its imperishable principles as pro
claimed by jefferson and will survive
coming centuries by continuing such
adherence. No reconstruction is
necessary. Our party is simply de-
feated but not dismayed or disorgan-
lied nor disheartened."
To the inquiry Of the North Ameri-
can, Senator COckrell sent In answer:
'srhe Democratic party has its or
~ganization in every state and county
and needs no reorganization, and has
survived through all political storms
for a century and will remain I'M
dismayed and aggressive in coming
contests by strict adherence to its i'm
perishable principles proclaimed by
Jefferson in 1901, and though now de
feated In the presidential contest, Is

GOLD DKMOcRArA
George Robertson Says They Sheald
Keep Out Of Discussion About
ChAngein Democratic Policies.

MEXICO, Mo-, Nov. 10.-George
Robertson, member Of the executive
COMMITTEE Of the Gold Democratic
State Committee OF this State, who
has always been uncompromising in
his stand against fusion. but whogaye
loyal support to Dockery in the last
campaign, regarding this talk Of the
reorganization OF theD Democratic party,
to q RspWblie reporter to-day, said:
Al do not believe there is anything
to be gained by this talk about the
reformation OF the Democratic party
by men who have been on the outside
of the organization for the last four
years, and much harm may be done
by it
Men will admit their mistakes but
do not like to be told Of them by
those coming around with a spirit OF
Il told you so.'
From the way such men as Hearst,
Mclean, Catchings, Watterson, Wheel
er and a host OF others-who went in
to fusion for the support of Bryan
are talking, it seems to me the Demo-
cratic part Of the fusion stands in no
need OF advice from men who opposed
it
"If the utterances Of the men mem
toned are to be taken as any index to
the feeling within the party, we are
all now agreed that the Chicago and
Kansas City platforms are not accept
able to the American people OF to a
SUFFICIENT number Of Democrats, even
to win an election upon them.
Fusion and the issues which il
brought about stand as thoroughly
discredited by the conservative men Of
the Democratic organization as they
ever were by those who scratched
Bryan at the polls or voted for Nc
Kinley, not because they Endorsed in
toto the policies Of his administration,
but as a protest against what they
deemed the dangerous tendencies OF
the f~uSionist party. That eonServa-
tism, made more 80 by two defeats,
viii, il allowed, work out a complete
abandonment of all those principles
which the so-called Gold Democratic
element denounce as unDemocratic.
81 believe that now the conservative
men Of the Democratic organization
will have and are entitled to the con-
idence Of those who refused to follow
the organization into the Populistic
Free Silver Republican combination.
1.-THE recent vote in this state dis
closes that Mr.. Dockery received a
very slight vote from the Populists
and Free Silver Republicans and, I'M
der the leadership Of such men as
Dockery, Seibert and some Others, ]
believe that as early as the next cleo
ton those prefering to support what
they regard as the true principles and
policies OF Democracy, will be given
that opportunity by the party as now
organized, and advice from us TO them
Is not only unnecessary, hut just now
Is In bad grace on our part 1t is likely
to interfere with the very things we
would be glad TO see accomplished.
