Notice Was Posted at the Gaylord

Mine Had Closed Down Indefinite
ty-Confercnee In wheeling fatis.
There has been considerable troube
al the Gaylord mine north OF Martin s
Ferry for some days, but the men Kept
on working up until yesterday when
notices were posted that the mine was
closed. While these notices were be-
ing posted President sullivan and Vice
President Haskins were at Commission

they were to meet President SouderS,
of the company, hut found ii was no
use. President Haskins made the FOL

the GAY :ord mine has discharged sew
eral men without cause, and when we
met them for the purpose OF settling
these disputes yesterday morning, we
found they had issued an order TO shut
down their property. and thereby lock
ed out all men employed. The no
tees had been posted before we arrived
at McBrydes Office. the mine OF
ficials were very much surprised at the
action, as they said they only asked for
what was right, and did not wish to
take any advantage. The closing down

"ONE OF THE BOYS"
Replies TO some Structures of "old
soldier on the National Guard.

soldier" on the National Guard.
To the Editor OF the Register.
Sir:-ln a recent edition of your ex
eellent paper an old Soldier" has
kindly given the pubic his opinion Of
the National Guard as he sees II.
Sparing none, he has devoted himself
TO abuse and insult. No doubt he re-
srets having wasted his period of use
fulness so long ago, in the service of
this ungrateful country. FELL him to
come out to mess. A good square meal
will do him good Or he might give Us
4 practical example OF picket duty as
he used to do il long ago. A walk In
the fog might cheer HIM up.
Let us look at the matter from an
other standpoint The proper motive
for becoming member or the Nation
al Guard is 10 serve the State. and the
men are Liable to a call at any time
and for any length of service. lie
agrees TO attend "drili-' one evening
each week for a period of three years.
the men receive no pay for this service.
Last year they served eight days IN
camp and were only paid for six days
service. Why was this!
The members of the Guard are busy
men, working men. professional men.
and are liable in some cases to looss
their positions by attending the en-
eanlpments and other. calls of the ser
vice The members of the Guard have
few real Incentives to make them en-
thusiastic They are not anxious 10
serve as strike breakers" as some pro-
fess to believe. There is no glory In
such service. We lack the patriotism
born of active warfare. Politics or
pull" are frequently means of pro-
motion rother than merit. There is
scarcely a man but loses valuable time
and is at an actual expense in his at
tendance during encampment. In fact
the only real inducement TO member
ship to the great majority OF the boys
Is the pleasure of our annual eneamp-
ment.
As to our attention to duty, that Is
unworthy OF argument. The work is
done and done creditably, A man who
Is too dead to have an occasional lark,
who never runs the guard Is too dead
to be a good solder,
Now about the fellows who were not
| in line at brigade or Reglmental par
| AIDE, If the old boy will just stop ana
| think he may remember that after
twenty -four hours of picket duty SOL
der is placed on fatigue" duty for the
| next day and spends his time in clean
| ing up the camp, ehopping wood and
other restful occupations.
Say. "Old Soldier" don't be too hard
| on the boys. Come out and see us.
Have another look.

The sham Battle.

The most important event OF the en-
campment. the most interesting from a
a spectacular point Of view, and the
event which will probably attract one
OF the largest crowds, will be the sham
battle this afternoon. 1t has been
many years since Wheeling people had
the opportunity to witness exercises OF
this nature. The entire brigade Will
participate, and the battle will continue
for two or three hours
1t will probably commence about
three o'clock Each soldier will have
ten rounds Of ammunition. Plans for
the battle will be perfected to-day.
One or two battalions from the First
