The LaughIin Bill.

WEEEL1NG, w. Va, Jan. 70, 1901.
To the Editor of the Register.
Sir:-Most people in Wheeling will
agree with your editorial of to-day.
that ordinary courtesy dictates that
the Legislature should await the action
of the City Council upon the Laughlin
license bill, before considering it or
advancing it upon the calendar.
1T would look like an insult to a
reform Council for the Legislature. at
the request of private citizens, to say
that these new and untried men of high
standing in this city, elected to remedy
evils, cannot be trusted to deal with
the license question. They do many
strange things in Pennsylvania, and it
is not always well to blindly follow
what is done in another State The
license granting is not judicial mat
ter. The judges We're not elected to
pass on such questions as arise on the
applications for license. The writer
has no doubt that the judges of West
Virginia do not want such non-judicial
duties imposed on them. The fitness
of an applicant to have a license de-
ponds upon his personal character,
habits and history. These are not
matters of law or judicial in nature
His neighibors and acquaintance in
Council are better judges of such
things than any judge of a circuit,
who, perhaps, may come from a dis
tant county, can possibly be.
The gentlemen of the Federation of
Churches are not very safe guides upon
practical questions of government, and
it will be we'll to go slow and thorough
ly weigh the Laughlin bill.

The Bridgeport Case Again.

To the Editor Of the Register.
Sir: The case of the Bridgeport
lady who has become sorrowful be-
cause her husband gave her a $50 dress
has elected great deal of motherly
advice. Let us please give her bunch
of practical advice. And in this we
can do no better than to quote from
memory little story that appeared in
the Register some months ago.
A young lady was about to be mar
ried to very nice young man. Be
fore the wedding day the mother i'm
pressed upon her daughter the serious
ness of the step about to be taken, and
said: My dear. you have no doubt
been engrossed with the idea that mar
riage is 'one grand sweet song and
that with such charming young man
as Charles, there will never by a cloud
between the sunshine and your hap
piness.
But don't allow this idea to delude
you or you will be sadly disappointed
and grieve much. You must remem-
Der that men are sometimes frail. and
| In these instances you must be blind
else suffer a lot Of needless sorrow. Dc
not be inquisitive or Jealous, for you
but store up needless and imaginary
| suffering. Look at your papa and my
self; have you ever noticed anything
between us but tranquility and happi-
ness? 1t was because l followed the
rule | have told you. But have had
severe shocks, but l shut my eyes tc
them and they passed by.
Il remember how | used to wait
| for your papa in the evenings, some
times until quite late, sometimes i'm
agining all sorts of things, but he
came home cheerful and happy, and
what could l say? But one night |
waited unusually long; it was three
| o'clock in the morning when he ar
| rived, and L hao been waiting all that
| time.
George, dear said as he entered
where in the name of heaven have you
been that kept your SO late?'
He seemed as cool as ever-the
same quiet, good-natured George
Maria, dear he said, you would not
believe me if told you
Yes, darling I replied, I would
believe anything you say-anything
no matter what
| ." You would believe it without ques-
tion? he asked, as he calmly struck q
match and lit a cigar.
Yes, dear, l will believe it sin
cerely.'
He gazed at me quietly and then
solemnly said: Maria, l have been
lecturing before the Young Mems
Christian Association From that
time on l never bothered him with
questions, and 1 have saved myself
much pain in consequence Do like
wise, my daughter"
| Now, if every woman can only re-
member that when her husband is late
that he has been attending the Young
| Mems Christian Association. how much
brighter and happier the world would
be. 1t would be like one of Frank
Stanton's spring poems

Pertinent Questions.

To the Editor of the Register.
Sir:-To try to induce the Republic
can members of the West Virginia leg
islature to say by act, how much they
like the negroes of this State-they
love them at times-here are some
questions: Is 1t smart to commit per-
jury publicly? Why not legislate so
that the negro is the equal of the
white as to schools? Acquainted with
the laws of West Virginia, why can
you, if you remember your oath of Of
flee, fail to attempt to make the negro
by law, the equal of whites in every
legal particular? Why not have mixed
schools?
You say in private, possibly, that
you know negro is as good as you, if
you say dt as a lie, and you say the
same in public for the purpose it may
be for some other reason-not votes?
According to the Bible it is a sin to lie
The Republican members of the leg
islature and their mothers and wives
and sons and daughters and other
relatives think of the negro; they
know that there will not be mixed
schools 1t is no near knowledge that
know" is conjectured. There is the
marriage law, for instance. Think of
it! A miSdemeanor for white and a
negro to intermarry! Why don't you
abolish the law? Are you under oath?
Do you not believe the negro is your
equal? I've given rough sketch Of
the picture. Paint it yourself.

To the Editor of the Register.
Sir:-Please allaw me space in your
Sunday letter box to make a sugges-
ton to the Bellaire boys Now boys,
if the Bellaire girls do turn you down
don't die with melancholy, why not
come over to Benwood, where you can
get pick and choice of girls, and real
nice ones. Allow me to inform you of
course, guess the greater part of them
cannot remember when they were
sweet sixteen" but don't let that stop
you for it is a common thing to see a
maiden ten years older than her sweet
heart. guess you all know why they
are maidens, of course the fault is not
their own, and boys, if you did get the
dirty throw down in your own town.
why not come to another town, as it is
an old saying strangers always take and
that's the way with the Wheeling boys?
Of course it will cost you the ten cents
on the ferry, but as you have been so
close with your Bellaire girls and they
gave so many leap year hops you
ought to have money to burn

Words of Advice to BeIIaire Girls,

.
To the Editor of the Register.
Sir: During the past four weeks l
discovered in your valuable papers
several letters of arguments, the
trouble being caused by the young
men of Wheeling calling on the Bell
aire girls, or in other words, acting as
rivals. We understand the Bellaire
young men have drawn their own con-
illusions.
Now, girls. Let one who has had a
little experience give you some advice
about the Wheeling boys, who think
they are swell sports and can get a
girl at any time. First, let me tell you
that there is nothing about them that
is worth a young lady's admiration.
In your letter of the 18th inst. you
stated that the Wheeling young men
spend their money and show YOU a
nice time. That may be all true, but
doubt if you were having a good
time at their expense, or at the ex-
pense Of their creditors. We are at
liberty to draw our own conclusions.
So don't be inclined to think that it is
the Wheeling young mans own money
with which you are enjoying your
nice time.
one of our young men (who calls on
a Bellaire girD informed me a few
days ago that he had not paid for his
girls Christmas present, but expected
the bill to be sent in at any time. He
is only one Of the many. Ignorance
is bliss. Have you ever noticed how
happy and contented the young men
of Wheeling are?
Girls, / also noticed in your letter
OF the 18th inst, you informed the
Bellaire boys you were not pining for
proposals. Now, / have not the least
doubt but those words are true, but,
my innocent friends, while in COMPANY
with these young men (who spend
money on you and show you a nice
time) you may at any time become in
fatuated by one Of them, and in an in
slant you will agree to trust the re-
mainder of your life to his protective
care, which would mean a life of
misery. l myself (being twice mar
rled) know by experience, my first
husband being chosen from among
your Bellaire sticks. while my second
CWho proved himself to be more de-
celving than the first) l selected from
among our Wheeling dead-beats. The
so-called dead-beat is now Gin order
to escape the clutches of the law in

Ohio town. So beware, girls! beware,
Should any of you at any time fully
make up your mind to settle down to

assemble about the Fifth ward market,

To the Editor of the Register.
Sir:-Your kicker would infer from
the way the lower market is conduct
ed that the custodian of it runs it
alone for the benefit of the people who
have their goods to dispose off, in
stead of the public also. By wise pro-
vision of our former Councilmen, IA
doors were provided for entrance and
exit The blind market master pre-
viously in Office could see the necessity
of having them all open for the benefit
of the public during market hours, but
now under the supervision of the pres
ent management there is rarely more
than one or two of the ten side doors
open, and we must carry our market
ing through surging crowd from end
