Thc Abuse of the Horse.

FAIRMONT, W. Va, Rugust IS.
To the Editor Of the Register
Sir:-I see that you have compass
. sion upon a great many things of earth
and every man for his one mission,
and as | have been taking vacation
and travelling through your sections Of
New Martinsville and Piney Grove and
all along the Short Line, also as far as
Salem, in the interest of the noblest
gift God ever gave to man, and TO see
the treatment that this noble animal IS
compelled to go through and so little
humane interest in his welfare, While
the bulk of the money in this section
of the country Is earned by this noble
animal the horse, and to see this poor
servant suffering With pain and GRIP
pied in feet and limbs and slipping and
falling down from the lack of shoelng
and care, and see things driving them
they call men, makes me indignant.
When a horse falls down to pound MIN
on the back and cruelty treat him is
wrong. The officers of the humane
law have taken their oath to sustain
the constitution of the State, and yet
let these things pass. The good book
saws the laborer is worthy of his hire,
and the man that does not care for his
household is worse than the infidel.
The horse is one of the household.
He turns over the soil and draws the
products of the country to the several
transportations. and is worthy of care
and medical aid. According to the hui
man laws and in cities where the
human laws are carried out. they make
a success and improve their stock, and
Il is in condition to perform more
work for less money. Carnegie OFFERS
the laborer a share in stock after he
has robbed him and got him down in
/ the ditch, the same as the poor old
horse. and pounded him on the back
until he is discouraged and willing to
die right there. There are but two
things in the world-the one Is the
right thing and the other is the wrong;
and we have the history Of the chill
dren OF Israel. and the poor horse was

tecting the horse? ! have given lee

As to Triadaaphia District.

AZ IrlHuS1pbIa Dt6frtct.
Editor OF Register
Sir:-There appeared an article in
Intelligencer of August over the sig
nature of II. c., that cannot be let pass
unnoticed. 1t seems that the honest,
straightforward views of A Suffering
Citizen in former Sunday issue of the
Register so excited and bewildered this
fellows brain that it led him to write
reply of absurd fabrications.
II. c.. on the word and honor of a
gentleman, can you be induced to ac-
knowledge that the reason Triadelphia
district did not get three times more
of an appropriation from the County
Commissioners than what It did. was
on account of a Democratic Commits
sioner being elected instead of Repub-
lican? Is not this the cause of the out
rageous discrimination OF the county's
funds in favor of districts that are Re
publican? How can H. G. have the
brazen efrontefy of resorting to ride
ulous statements when thousands of
people in Ohio county more intelligent
than he or the vulgar rtngsters who
think they are the brains of the Board
Of County Commissioners. knows they
are erroneous and misleading?
Though this critic emphatlca1ly de-
MES that the honorable board of ring
STEERS did not discriminate against Tri-
delphia because II elected a Democratic
Commissioner, his own assertion in the
following quotation from his article of
August 9Th openly conyicts him. He
says: ANY one who travels Ohio
county roads have had sense enough to
appreciate the good roads of the past,
whether under a Democratic or Repub-
lican Commissioner, end also to see
their folly in allowing a change to be
made in the last November election"
Now, good reader, what is your sense
of this quotation from II. c.?
Does not it mean in one part that
the roads were in good shape under
either a Democratic or Republican
Commissioner? Then his ignorant
partnership obscures his great intellect.
and forces him to reprimand the voters
by saying land also to see their folly
in allowing a change to be made in
the last November election" Now, to
illustrate this partisan Commissioner S
assertion, that the reader may under
stand its meaning. He recognizes the
fact that an honest Democratic or Re
Dtiblttd oil Oucsaiht Vi WIG
ring rule can give good service to the
people. but that the people of Triadel-
pha district should see their folly be-
fore electing a Democratic County Com
missioner. 1t is amazing how ignor-
antly partisan some of those Repub-
lican Commissioners can be in deal
ing with the county's affairs, but when
it comes to the city affairs they in
trude their vulgar impudence in aid
ing malcontented Republican Office
seekers to break UP a Republican ma
iority in the City Cotnc%l.
Surely soge of those Republican
County Commissioners were elevated
above their merit and away beyond
their sphere, which it is hoped good Re-
publeans will refrain from doing at the
next county election. FAIRNESS.
