LEADER OF THE GREAT STRIKE.

(Pittsburg Dispatch in N. Y. Trfbune.)
Theodore J. Shaffer, the directing
head of the steel strike, was graduated
from a rolling mill into the Western
University of Pennsylvania, and in time
into the Wesleyan Theological Semin-
airy. That led him into the ministry,
and by stages back into a rolling mill
again, whence he was called to be-
come president of the Amalgamated
Association. President Shaffer is n
of those unfortunately brilliant men
whose physical resources are made
quate to maintain the drafts made upon
it by his active and versatile mental
ity.
After laboring day and night as a
boy and youth in the rolling mills to
acquire an education, he was met with
the professional judgement of one ply
stefan after another that he must lay
aside intellectual labor and return to
physical tasks if he hoped to preserve
his health. Over-activity was his fault.
He reluctantly followed the advice of
his physicians and left the pulpit 20

FOR An TyDTsTRIAL SCHOOL,

Mr. Carnegie is not ~niggardly In his
philanthropic schemes, for his main
trouble is to give away the most to the
best advantage of the recipients. There
fore, because we may accept a Carnegie
library Is no reason why we should
not breach the subject of a Carnegie
Industrial School to the great philan-
thropist on the same terms. II would
meet with enthusiastic approval in
Wheeling, which is essentially an in
dustrial city and dependent on the in
telligence and capacity of its people
along practical lines for its future.
Manual training graduates its scholars
thoroughly equipped for the duties Of
life. The present school system stuffs
the scholars head full of book learn
ing" and he must learn how to apply
it to the practical affairs of life after
ward. In other words his real educa-
ton begins after he leaves school.
Apropos to the Greater Wheeling
movement, we couldn't take a longer
step forward in the direction of true
municipal greatness than by establish
ing industrial education in this city.
II Mr.. Carnegie will help us out-and
he has built and proposes to build in
dustrial schools for other cities-so
much the better.

A CARNEGIE INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL
FOR PITTSBURG.

Speaking of the industrial school pro-
pcsed for Pittsburg by Mr.. Carnegie,
rfe Chicago Tribune after outlining the
scheme of the institution, says: The
new technical school for Pittsburg will
differ materially from other technical
schools in that it will reach all classes
of artisans. not only those who wish
the highest possible scientific equip
ment. but those also who are content
with the required knowledge for every
day useful labor. It will be for the
benefit of the unskilled as we'll as the
skilled. 1t will be more practical in its
results than theoretical, and, best of all,
ii docs not require a given ex.eEl9l
course of years for graduation. with
large expenditure of money as we'll as
of tine. These are impcr.'n. factors
for men who have tc earn their living
al cannot be mere scholars Or sayants.
II ls probable that the Carnegie scaocl
will graduate but few OF tae latter. and
thus will not add materially to the num-
Der of young men seeking technical
positions. It will be more likely to add
to the ranks of the workers not only an
industrious but an unusually intelli-
gem class. as no others would care to
avail themselves of it's opportunities"
1t is an institution such as this that
Wheeling needs and must have if we
are to maintain our place in the front
rank of the army of industrial progress.
Mr.. C%arnegie's wise philanthropy pre-
sents the means whereby we may get
such an institution with the least pos
sible outlay.

rur CARNEGIE LIBRARY.

The Board Of Education will take
up the Carnegie Library project In
August. As the matter row stands. II
Is a question OF providing a $4,000
site and s.. 900 a year for the support
Of the library. Mr.. Carnegie donating
the building.
The proposition before the Board OF
Education is the ordinance providing
for submission 10 the voters of the city
Mt a special election OF a proposition
for the issue OF 5=34 bonds not to ex-
coed $50. 900 in the aggregate. bearing
interest at the rate of five per cent;
the money derived from the sale of the
bonds TO be applied TO the purchase OF
a site for the proposed library building.
II the people ratify this ordinance
the Board OF Education will provide
the 5000 a year for the support OF
the proposed library by increasing the
school levy. This levy now yields
Sc. 600. and the law authorizes the Board
to double the rate. which will be lone
II the $4,000 library loan ordinance
passes.
As stated the Board will take final &C
ton at its meeting In August. and then
IL will be up to the people to decide
whether they want the library on these
terms or not.
Mr.. Carnegie gives his libraries only
to those communities which provide
the necessary sites and pledge them
selves to hustle for the support of the
institutions afterwards. Like Heaven.
the Scotch philanthropist. helps only
those who help themselves. His phil
anthropy Is eminently practical and
business-like and the monuments thus
to him are bound to be endar-
ing when once built.

CUNNING FOR THE TARIFF.

The internecine strife within the Re-
publican party against the present sys-
TEN OF tariff-for-trusts-only will prob
ably be precipitated in the selection of
chairman of the committee on foreign
relations to fill the vacancy caused by
the death of Senator Cushman X. Dawn,
of Minnesota. The first name on the
list is that of Senator Frye, OF Maine,
the second. Of Senator Cullom, of ILL.,
nois, and the third, Senator Lodge, Of
Massachusetts,.
A writer in Success for August states
that Senator Lodge Is said to be ambi-
tious to secure the craftsmanship. while
Mr.. Frye is understood not to wish it.
The question, therefore, would be be-
tween the Massachusetts, Senator and
| Mr.. Cullom. The importance OF the
choice rests in the fact that Mr.. Lodge
has been one of the most earnest oppo-
nents of reciprocity, while Mr.. Cullop
as earnestly supports it.
| A sentiment IS rapidly growing,
among those actively engaged in indus
| trial pursuits, that the time is at hand
when the Republican party must sub
NIT to an attack upon its protective
policy. Senator Gullom declares that at
least a modification of the policy is nee
essary, for the United States to hold
the position of commercial supremacy
into which it has leaped. Senator
Lodge is a bourbon high t~ariffer.
This battle will be one OF the most
interesting and important OF many
years, and its outcome, next winter, viii
be watched with decided interest, as II
is a question Of vital importance.

POLLUTION OF STREAMS.

To the Editor OF the Register.
ROMNEY, w. Va. July 19.-ln a
paper recently / noticed an article on
pollution OF streams which said it was
doubtful II saw mills and tanneries
killed fish. | wish to draw a compari-
son between the North Branch of the
Potomac Of twenty years ago and OF
the present. Twenty years g the
North Branch was a fair black bass
stream and all along that stream, from
Cumberland as far west as Keyser, you
could see the bass on their spawning
beds and see people fishing. and catch
ing them. too. and some were large
ones. At present a bass is unknown
west of Cumberland in the North
Branch of the Potomac. Since 1880
the saw mills have been established on
that stream, also the tannery at Cor
man and the large pulp and paper
mill at Piedmont. This may not have
caused all of the pollution, but they
caused a large share OF 1t. and now
they are going to try to repeat he
same dose on the beautiful South
Branch of the Potomac. / do not think
the citizens who live on the banks of
this stream are going to sit idly by
and let the Covers or the United States
Leather Company injure this stream
for their own private gain. 1t will take
the united efforts of farmers and sports
men to make these people build set
Ting basins, which is necessary to save
the stream. We have laws enough on
this subject if they are only enforced.
AS lots of Wheeling people enjoy fish,
ing on this stream, / think this letter
will be of some interest.
