HANNA FOR 1901.

Our own Senator Nathan Bay Scott
isn't alone in his belief that Marcus
Auriferous Hanna is the logical can
didate of the Republican party for
President in 1904.
Senator Scott is warmly backed by
the st. Louis Republic which declares
that Hanna is the embodiment of all
for which the Republican party stands
at the present time. "He is the ac-
copied apostle of the first article of
faith in the Republican creed, which
holds that the dollar is superior to tho
man"
He is the expounder of the doctrine
that rich men must be made richer by
making poor men poorer. He is the teach
or of the demoralizing belief that Ameri-
can politics should be run on the huckster
basis of barter and sale. He is the incar-
nate illustration of the right of the strong
hand. He is a temperamental antagonist
of popular government and a scoffer at
the idea hat a victory of honest principle
is more to be desired than the gaining of
material and selfish ends.
Hanna has shaped the Republican par
ty of his day into the likeness of his own
image. Since that ominous moment when
he first emerged from the obscurity of his
money-grubbing private occupation to
take personal charge of Mckinley's polit-
lcal fortunes in behalf of syndicated cap
itsl< the Republican party, from the eth
&;swpoint. has been a commercialized
1t ceased. under Hanna's captain
public question. It took the sordid side
of every issue. 1t retired from places of
authority in the party councils the con-
scientious men who would not subscribe
to Hanna's creed. 1t put forward the
bold and INSCRIPTIONS political adventur-
their own hearts. 1t became an opportun-
list party. with the dollar dominating all
else as establishing the standard of aspi-
ration.
1.-The Republican party of to-day
will be false to itself if it fails
to nominate Mark Hanna for the
Presidency in 1904. 1t will not have
the courage of its convictions. 1t will
confess in effect that its chosen leader
and master is of personality too evil to
make a winning appeal for the support of
the American people. Thiswould be a hui
initiating attitude for the Hannaized party
of the trusts. 1t should brazenly accept
the logic of the situation and name Mark
Hanna as its standard bearer in 1904"

There was much excitement in Bell
aire last night, the storm centre being
on Gravel Hill. of which the central
portion is just west of the Bellaire
Steel Company, one of the mills Of
the National Steel Company, and has
been operated non-union since SO, when
they went out on a strike and lost,
many of the old men not being taken
back. Early last evening the people
commenced to gather on Gravel Hill,
and during all day, men who were
waiting on their turns in the mill
gathered on the corners, and at their
homes. and talked over the situation,
and many rumors were prevalent,
some that the men would strike, and
others that they could be organized.
The bosses of the different departments
showed some uneasiness, but not until
late in the evening did the management
become fully ware that a large amount
of their men were union s~ympathizers.
The Register, for some time, has been
aware that the Amalgamation has been
making progress in organizing the
workmen in this mill, and especially
with the old men, but has refrained
from publishing same until it could
learn the progress made. And this
morning the Register is able to give its
readers some definite news regarding
this mill. Organizers from Steuben-
vile, Mingo Junction and Martins
Ferry, for several weeks have been or
ganizing these men secretly, but the
largest and most successful meeting
was that held last evening in the hose
house on Gravel Hill, when between $50
and 200 men were organized, and are
in full accord with the position taken
by the Amalgamation. Addresses by
men from the above places were made.
Great excitement prevailed when it was
learned that the men on the turn not
working were holding a meeting. Sew
eral of the management concealed them
selves in a yard near the hose house,
with the evident idea Of learning who
was attending this meeting, but the
men soon learned of this, and entered
the building from the rear, but after
being organized anne out the front
way. Several salaried men were at the
meeting and a number were on the
streets, mingling with the crowd, but
refused to express themselves. Two Of
the management who were conspicuous
in the crowd, and three who were
watching, caused considerable comment
from the people, and many expressed
their indignation as Bellaire people nov
are expressing much sympathy for the
strikers. A conservative estimate of
the number Of men organized in the
mill is over one-third, and prospects of
gaining more, among whom are a num-
Der of the best workmen. A report was
in circulation last night that the miners
would strike to-day, but this rumor
could o be confirmed.
To-day will probably be an eventful
one in the history of the strike, and
this city will probably play one of the
leading parts in the great battle be-
tween labor and capital. There is no
disposition here for any trouble, and all
is orderly. This plant has been work
ing steadily for several years, and is
said to be n of the best paying plants
in the trust. The Amalgamation is
much encouraged with their work of
yesterday.

SELF. Is a past mistress at the firta-
tious art of arrant demagogy. She
knows quite well that the only public
u%tterances of a politictl nature in CON
nection with the present strike situa-
tion have come from an Ohio Repub-
lican, namely Congressman Babcock,
who has taken advantage of the pres
ent trouble to push his campaign
within the Republican party for tariff
reform as against protection-for-
trusts-only.
1t wont do for the organ to attempt
to save something from the threatened
political wreck by trying to blame it
on the Democrats. No Democrat has
said a word about the strikes politi-
cal phase.
1t is simply a beautiful quarrel in
side the party-of-the-trusts-and-of- OLA
tariff-for-trusts-only.
And since our neighbor has thrown
the subjest wide open to discussion it
is not impertinent to state that
whatever settlement is made inside
that party will not be for the benefit
of organized labor-or any other kind
of labor. During the past generation
the only part that labor has played in
the grand old party of false pretenses
and high protection" has been to do
the voting while the trusts got the
protection.
1t is the oldest political "green-goods'
game on record. but the "come-on" in
this case has finally taken a peep into
the satchel and discovered the kind
of goods for which he has been yield
ing up his good votes for the past gen.
Grafton.
This is what is worring the Repub-
lican politicians and their organs.

THE STRIKE.

To the Editor of the Register.
Sir: Tonight, in accordance with
the strike order of President Shaffer,
of the Amalgamated Association, be-
tween thirty and forty thousand iron
and steel workers. scattered from east
ern Pennsylvania to Wisconsin. will
lay down their tools and join in the
Jntest between organized labor and
organized capital for supremacy. That
this should happen is something to be
d%eplored. What a pity it is that there
ould not have been such mutual con-
cessions as would have resulted in an
agreement and saved the standing and
honor, and conserved the interests i,
both parties to the controversy. and
how unfortunate that there should be
no means of arbitrating disputes of
this character, not only for the good of
those Immediately concerned, but in be-
half of hundreds of thousands who have
no direct interest in the contention, but
are compelled to suffer often to a very
serious extent. AS it is, unless, by lit
tie short OF a miracle, there should
be an eleventh-hour disposition to re-
open negotiations, loss will be piled
upon loss, one side being able to stand
it, and the other so situated as to be
seriously crippled in material
The steel combine is far and away the
largest industrial aggregation in the
word. 1t is possessed Of hundreds of
millions of resources, and can lose very
many of those millions without feeling

The general public will discover the
real head of the billion trust ere long
at the present rate of development. At
first it was thought John Pierpont Nor
gan was the big man. Then Charles
M. Schwab showed that he had a little
more to say than even the dictator of
Wall Street. Now, it appears that the
real power behind Strike-Breaker

Carnegie. And Andrew is over in Scot

To-day, when the last turn of the mill
men finish their work, the strike order
of President Shaffer, of the Amalga-
mated Association, will become effective
and, according to statistics Sent out
from Pittsburg, more than thirty thous-
and additional men will join the ranks
OF the present strikers.
Members of the Association will be
greatly interested in our telegram this
morning. in which President Gompers,
of the American Federation Of Labor,
pledges support. Just how far this goes,
is also a problem, but it is evident that
the two days conference with President
Shaffer has been productive of results
more or less tangible, and that consid-
cradle cash will be forthcoming, if moth
ing else. The situation has not yet
clarified, and possibly will not for some
little time TO come.
The local scouts of the Association
are active and vigilant, as was fully
demonstrated yesterday morning. Ev-
cry train on every road is being watch
ed for possible arrivals of n%on-union
men, and the greatest activity is shown
fn this branch of the preparatory work.
To-day's developments will be full of
interest for thousands in the district
tributary to Wheeling, and this manu-
featuring centre will fairly divide hon
ors with Pittsburg, Wellsville and the
Mahoning valley. Details of the occur
rences or yesterday locally will be found
below.
