SCENTS is capable of reforming itself. In
his article the City Editor admits, in
one breath, that there is need or re-
formation, and that what is foul may
become pure through internal agencies.
l agree with the first admitted propo-
sition that there is need of purlflca-
ton, but dissent from the idea that the
existing ring is capable of anything
but a continuance of its past record.
The slap the Committee or One Hun
dred, and through it the decent and
law-abiding people of the city, has re-
ceived full in the face from the local
ring supporter ought to be. and | be-
lieve will be, resented by every good
citizen. The Intelligencer lacked the
nerve to come out boldly and advo-
cate the reelection of the majority OF
the old Council clamoring for re1nsta-
ton, but it did not hesitate to rebuke
the reform movement, and virtually
tell the men who hope and who are
striving for better government that 1t
was none of cir business how things
were conducted at the City Hall. viii
the citizens of Wheeling accept this
rebuke. or resent it? That is now the
supreme question. Six years OF ring
rule, without regard to the interests OF
the public, has resulted in Commit
tee of One Hundred, for the first time
in the history of Wheeling. Yet the
InteIligencer is of the opinion that the
defiled stable can cleanse itself. l
doubt it. REFORM.

Tint Blessed Tablet.
Monndlsville. Dec. 1G

MOundlSVllle, Dec 10.
To the Editor of the Register,
Sir:-When l read the card of Spec
tator" this morning, referring to the
Fort Henry Tablet as cheap | knew
the writer could not have made a very
thorough investigation of the subject.
| admit your first impression OF this
tablet is not good, but you want to
stand and watch it for while. The
first time l saw it, | wondered who was
buried there, and why they had placed
only foot marker at the grave. Then
/ went and read upon the tablet the
names of the Com" and the Gov
Then I saw a dog come up the hill on
the opposite side of the street cross
over and pay his respects to the tablet.
Then | saw more dogs, and more and
more. Finally I had to leave, but the
dogs are doubtless travelling that way
yet. and the stone is like an oasis, with
running water, in a thirsty desert, or
vice versa. So the most unpretentious
thing may have its uses, and the mean
est useful thing ought not to be despis-
ed or called cheap" Let us take all
these things into consideration before
we too hastily condemn; and who
knows but that very tablet, proof
against the ravages of time and the in
terest and close association of CANNES,
may not stand as the only monument
which carries to pOsterity the illustri-
osu name of our own and only Gov"
SON OF THE REVOLUTION.

To the Editor of the Register.


Sir:-I noticed in the Registers let
ter box of last Sundays issue, letter
concerning the cheap sports of Wheel
ing. Now, for my part, think Wheel
ing society is the best l ever saw, and
being a member of society circles my
self, l don't agree with the writer OF
that letter. And as far as lady paying
her way to dance is concerned it is
not at all proper. A lady should not
attend a dance without an escort, for 1t
makes the dance more select. The av-
erage girl, up-to-date, does not want
Just the one fellow. She wants others.
cigarette fiends preferred, and when
she does get a good conscientious fell
low, she does not appreciate him.
So | would advise every wise young
man never to take his girl to the opera,
or any place of amusement, but jolly
her along until Christmas eve, and
then quit and never return again.

THE BOARD Of TRADE.
THE SUBCOMMITTEE ON RAIL
ROADS HELD AN IMPORTANT
MEETING YESTERDAY.
PROCEEDINGS ARE SECRET
For the Time Being-Mr. Rineharts
Canvass for Subscribers Has Been
Very Successful, Forty individuals
and Firms Having Been Secured.
Secretary Thompson Leaves for
His Home.

The Board of Trade railroad committee,
consisting of Messrs. Geo. E. Stifel, Geo.
E. House, Harry w Mcclure, Seaton Al
exander and w F. Shaffer, together with
Messrs. Laughlin and Thompson, met at
the board rooms Saturday morning.
Messrs. E. L. Finley, of Ohio, and Jos,
Handlan, of this city, appeared before the
committee
The nature Of their business was not
disclosed, but it is understood it bears
upon some important new railroad con-
nection for Wheeling. 1t will be made
public at the proper time
Mr.. Walter II. Rinehart who was APP
pointed as q. committee of one 30 canvass
for subscriptions among citizens who
should be embraced on the membership
of the Board, started to work last Mon
day, and has met with a very crafty
ing degree Of success. He has secured
the subscriptions Of forty firms and in
diyiduals during the week. The names
are withheld from publication for the
reason that they must be passed upon in
tIlG HdHuef set IOFln IN the bylaws Oh
the Board. Mr.. Rinehart expressed him
self yesterday as feeling very much en-
couraged. He Will not discontinue his
work until everybody has been given an
opportunity to subscribe.
Secretary Thompson departed last eve
ming for Richmond, Ind, where he will
spend the holidays with his family He
Will probably make arrangements for re-
moving his family to Wheeling some
time after the first of the year The
rooms of the Board of Trade will be in
charge Of his assistant, Mr.. ]. f. Adams,
during his absence.
The officials Of the Board have com
piled a great deal of valuable data and
have entered into correspondence with a
large number Of firms with a view to en-
tightening them upon the advantages
which Wheeling possesses as location
for industrial plants. 1t will not be long
until some interesting announcements
may be expected.
