Mark Hanna is preparing to do a big
business in Chicago. with his headquar-
tiers for self and staff. He has leased two
houses on Michigan avenue. including for
ty rooms. They are near the Auditorium
and were secured al low price, as the
Auditorium managers count on vast
increase of patronage which the nearness
of National headquarters will bring to the
big hotel The most innocent thing we
have seen is the committee announce
ment that ii is very poor and money is
wanted to prosecute the Congressional
canvass. With the sugar trust counting

Poor old Wheeling Intelligencer! Kick
ed, cuffed. slapped, reviled, spat upon, dis
credited in the ranks of its own party, its
support of a candidate the unfailing sig
nal for its butchery in convention, it can
do nothing but hiss and strike out, like a
blind viper in dog days, with the hope
that some of its aimless blows may strike
something that can be injured by its
venom. 1t is now finding congenial work
in trying to blow into blaze the dying
embers of the past, of which decent Re
publicanism is ashamed and which it,
even in its own indecency, would know
could only rebound to the harm of its
party, if it were not too feebleminded to
know anything. Time was when the In
telligencer was both vicious and able;
since Archie Campbelrs day it has only
been vicious.

To our mind, the reason for this an

CApITAIIzING M,sFoRTtyE.

The attempt of Messrs Waterhouse and
Healy, Democratic members of Council
to capitalize the misfortuneS of the water
works department of the city government
for the benefit of the city Democracy
which was feature of the joint session
of the two branches of the city legislature
last night, will not meet with the appro-
baton Of either Republicans or Demo-
Gratis in general. The unfortunate mis-
haps at the pumping station were events
that could not be foreseen by human
minds nor mended in advance by human
hands. Do Messrs. Waterhouse and
Healy believe that a Democratic board
would have been favored with a providen-
tial dispensation, thus preventing what
an ordinary mundane and uninSpired Re-
publican board did not foresee and con-
sequently were not forearmed against?
File, File, gentlemen, you are descending
to demagogic level unworthy of you
Intelligencer
The Intelligencer's reflections upon
the remarks of Messrs. Waterhouse
and Healy are lily timed and in poor
taste, for they are shared by many
citizens of the Republican party; fur
thermore, the Intelligencer is guilty of
deception when it says, "The unfortun-
ate mishaps at the pumping station
were events that could not be foreseen
by human minds nor mended by human
hands" If such be the case, then we
are to have all this laundering over
again and this community's property
is to be imperilled and it's comfort
and convenience almost reduced to nil.
The Intelligencer must know such
statement of the situation as it makes
is untenable. Because, after the I'M
successful effort to make the new con
nection, the situation is exactly the
same as it was before the effort was
made. When a second attempt is
made to connect the new pumps the
mechanical and hydraulic information
impaired to the management from ex-
perience, will be utilized to advantage.
Does the Intelligencer mean that this
knowledge ought not to have been pos
sessed in the first place by a COM
petent management?

ENGLAND WORRIED.

kilograms from London indicate
that the English War Office is some
what worried at the late news from
South Africa, while the public is exas-
perated and disposed to throw things
at the officials. One London paper
sarcastically suggests that it would be
well to retire Lord Roberts and hire
the Boer General De Wet to lead the
English army, and these remarks are
coupled with expressions of the fear
that the war will last some weeks
yet" There appears to be no doubt
that the prediction will come true.
The Beers are by no means whipped.
Forced back, they have concentrated
their best fighting men and all sup
plies, munitions and all their guns in
the northeast, with Lydenburg as head
quarters, and apparently can carry on
the contest for year to come Brit
ish losses continue right along, now
aggregating fifty thourand men from
all causes, $4,000 being listed as killed
and wounded, and the cost of the Eng
llsh army to date on account Of this

$3.50 100000. Dom Paul has kept his
word as to cost, and the end is not yet.

our country just now! That little
member which the inspired writer
declares is ian unru1y member, full of
deadly poison is playing an import
ant part in National affairs.
The tongue is a very powerful
instrument. Solomon says: "Death
and life are in the power of the
tongue" Just think Of it! Death,
with all that the term implies, and
life withall it's possibilities, are in the
power of the tongue! Should we
not be very careful how we use this
awful, and tremendous power?
A few kind encouraging words
spoken in the ear of a boy OF girl,
may kindle within him adesire to
be, and to do something; and, find
ing an opportunity for usefulness,
he makes his influence felt around
the world. Unkind words and
jeering criticisms may on the other
hand, drive him from the stage of
honor and sink him to the depths Of
vice.
While there are thousands of
young men, who are safely anchored
to truth, virtue and honor, by the
loving words and wise counsels Of
their parents, there T numbers Of
boys who have been driven from I'M
happy homes, and from the presence
of unkind parents, and r now
wandering out in the wide world, far
away from all that is noble or hon
orable in life.
The heart of a child naturally
seeks for love and if the the attitude
of it's parents towards it is not low
ing and tender it is very apt to cling
to any companion that shows signs
Of love, and affection. 1t is thus
that many young girls r led to
marry unworthy men, only to live a
short life in an unhappy home and
fill an untimely grave.
1.-The tongue can no ma tame -
therefore we must ask for Divine
help that we may use the power in
vested in our tongues to the glory of

shalt be justified and by thy words
thou shalt be condemned"
