QUEER ACTIONS

OF an Tramp 1T East
Liverpool, Cause Indignation.
Special to the Register.
EAST LIVERPOOL, O., May 23.-An
unknown tramp, who is supposed to be
either crazy o. a kidnapper, created
intense excitement here last night and
the police secured the city for him to-
day. While a crowd of small boys
were at play in front of the Sevres pot
terry he approached and, without a
word, seized Otto, son of George Mount,
by the throat. threw him down and
drew a razor The lad broke away in
terror and escaped. Another boy was
seized and a drug-saturated handker-
chief held to his nostrils. The hand
kerchief was wrested from him and
the man concealed himself in a pile of
lumber. A crowd collected and drove
him out and out of town.

A case of auto-suggestion or self
hypnotism is reported from Des Moines,
Iowa, where a young seamstress be-
lieves she is being hypnotized by the
poster picture of a man with out
stretched hand and finger, his glittering
eye sighting along the finger. The pic
ture is a four-sheet poster On a bill
board, which confronts her every time
she raises her eyes from her sewing
machine. She pleads to the authorities
for it's removal and physicians say
and the statement is entirely credible
that she will lose her mind if the pic
ture continues to confront her.

Q than our home bureau has been do
ing Of late.
ENGLISH AS SHE IS SPOKE.

Before departing for Europe, John
w. Gates talked in this language to a
reporter:
They say I lost s.. 900. 600 in the panic.
That's hot air. Do you suppose l would
be going abroad If 1 had my fingers caught
in a vise?'
The report of a two hundred million
dollar steel deal being formed in Chicago
to fight the Morgan Steel Company he
called the finest piece of hot air work
that has come out in some time, and all
bosh,' and added:
Here's some more hot air fresh from
the biggest blast furnace in Chicago. 1t
has been said was in the race for the
United States Senatorship from Illinois.
I'm not a politician. I'm a plain business
man trying to make a nice little living for
my family, and I'm doing quite well, thank
you"
Perhaps the Senate will come later"
says the Louisville Courier Journal,
criticising the Chieagoan. Gates ele-
CANT vocabulary and his special knowl-
edge and excessive use of hot air
would seem to qualify him peculiarly
for membership in the Senate. With
Gates and Mason, Illinois would have
a representation in the Senate which,
in many respects" adds Editor Waiter
son, mo other State could hardly hope
to equal"
Speaking of language, by the way,
it would seem that u punctillious
Kentucky contemporary might polish
up his own grammar a wee bit with
profit.

AN AMERICAN DREYFUs.

The death of Fitz-John Porter recalls
the many years of UNJUST stigma under
which that famous fighter lived. Con-
gresham Phelps, of New Jersey, on
the foor of the House in 1886 MADE
the following statement:
For twenty years I have believed that
Fitz-John Porter was a traitor ana de-
served to be hanged. That was the pop
MAR opinion of the loyal North. But L
have changed my opinion and believe that
Porter was an honest man and a loyal
soldier. 1 changed when, in the discharge
of my duty as a Representative, | was
Obliged to examine the evidence and to
learn the facts.
This sums up the history Of public
opinion in the case OF Gen. Porter,
which case is thus succinctly stated by
the New York World:
Major General Pope made a disgraceful
failure of his Virginia campaign of the
summer of 1862. To shield himself and his
ceterie of officers he attributed his mis-
fortunes to Porter, charging him with
cowardice and deliberate disobedience of
orders. At the time feeling was high be-
tween the volunteer officers and the
West Pointers" Porter was a West
Pointer In face of his splendid record in
the Mexican war, in face of his %gallantry
and skill up to August 90, 1862, in face of
clear proofs that he was not guilty of
Pope's charge, in face of the fact that
he saved Pope's army from destruction on
August 81, and was one of the heroes of
Antietam, the court martial found him
guilty, almost sentenced him to be shot,
did sentence him to disgraceful dismissal
from the army and to the civil disabilities
of a convict.
A partisan battle ragged round Porter.
and for twenty years he was as odious to
the American people as Dreyfus is to the
French people to-day. In the North Amer
lean Review for December, 1882, Gen.
Grant published under the title AN I'M
deserved Stigma q complete retraction
of and apology for his own d-enunciations
OF Porter and declared that he was abse-
lutely innocent, The official r~eaction had
begun in 1879, when a board of army Of
ficers appointed TO review the case re-
ported the proofs of the crime againet
Porter. But even with Gen. Grant on
Porter's side the popular reaction was so
slow that not until 1886 was Porter Off
cially vindicated by Congress.
And at the present day." adds the
World, many thousand who believed
ths original ~falsehoods and prejudicsd
Wheeling register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1878-1935, 1901-05-24

statements, Endorsed as they were by
so many eminent men, speak Of Porter
as a traitor. Like England's hideous
injustice to her Admiral Byng, shot be-
cause popular cfamor demanded it; like
Frances injustice to Dreyfus, this trag-
ic wrong to a man than whom the Re
public lever had a Drawer or more faith
full servant, teaches sundry lessons,
whereof n is the folly and hypocri-
sy OF the international pharisaism."

DIR. PARKHURST FAVORS OPEN
SUNDAY SALOONS.

DR.. Parkhurst has his own opinion
of New York politics and its various
elements and underlying causes and eff
fects. He sees that there is absolutely
no hope of reforming the city govern
ment or loosening the hold of Tammany
so long as the reformers couple puri-
tanism with their work. So long as the
personal liberties of the masses of the
people are threatened just so long will
the masses vote to keep Tammany in
power with all it's corruption, which
they prefer to a revival of puritanical
blue laws.
DIR. Parkhurst has now had sufficient
experience to recognize this condition
and to realize this state of the popular
mind, and that it stands like a stone
wall against any effort to shake Tam
many's corrupt grip on the city. Speak
ing of the saloon question before sail
ing for Europe, DR.. Parkhurst made a
statement in an interview that will stir
up widespread antagonism among the
reform element, of which he has long
been the head in New York. Said he:
81 believe that if it were not for the an
tagonism caused by this matter the decent
element could win this year and other
years. l do not urge an abandonment of
principle, but l feel that it is a great pity
hat a great number of voters should be
turned away from voting for decent men
simply because they feel that under a re-
form administration their own personal
liberty would be interfered with. I do not
like to have strife with my temperance
friends, but l know that a great many
people who would otherwise vote for the
reform ticket will not vote for such a
ticket if they believe that an energetic eff
fort will be made to keep the saloons
tight all day Sunday.
Il feel as l do, too, because 1 nave lived
so much among the Germans in
Germany, n I know that the way
they drink beer Is a very diff
ferent thing from whiskey drinking
in this country. And I most earnestly
wish that some means could be found of
conciliating the element that wishes to
have the saloons kept open on Sunday"
THE saloons will be open anyway
added DR.. Parkhurst, who has gained
wisdom from experience, they will be
open no matter what the reformers do
and l don't see why the additional harm
should be done of alternating so large
a body of voters who would otherwise
vote for decent government. 1 suppose
| shall be attacked for saying this. But
l have been attacked before, and [ guess
| can stand it."
