WIN. H. HENNEGEN DEAD.
The End Came Unexpectedly Mt His
Baltimore Home Yesterday


Morning.
Private kilograms received in this
city yesterday by relatives and friends
brought the sad intelligence of the un-
expected death in Baltimore yesterday
morning OF William H. Hennegen, for
merly of this city. The remains will
be brought to Wheeling for intermeat
at Greenwood, where Mrs. Hennegen
sleeps, and will be accompanied by Mr..
James O. Bates, partner of the deceased,
and Mr.. John d. Reynolds, also of the
firm. The body and those accompany
ing it are expected to arrive in this city
at $50 o'clock tomorrow morning.
Mr.. Hennegens illness appears to have
been short one, and his death was a
shock to his many Wheeling friends.
The jewelry firm of which deceased
was the head, was organized in 1857 i'll
this city, and for many years was To-
Gated on the east side of Main street at
the foot of the hill" next south of
the dry goods establishment of ]. s.
Rhodes & Co. Jacob w. Grub, ESQ,
was one of the early employees of the
firm, and there learned the jewelry
business. In 1877 the firm removed to
Baltimore, and Mr.. Grub engaged in
business for himself.
Mr.. Hennegen leaves no children. His
wife was sister of ex-Sheriff Richard
Brown. She died some time ago. A
sister-in-law is Mrs. Hall. of Baltimore.
The funeral arrangements will be an
nounced later.

~ exclusive report ii ms Register
regarding the annexation 81 bridgeport
to this city has caused considerable
comment, in which the large majority
is in favor Of making the two towns
one. thus making it city OF great inn
portance. With annexation Martins
Ferry could supply Bridg port with cleo
tric lights, water and fire protection,
and both towns would be much bene-
flied. The proposed annexation is not
adverse to the citizens of Martins Fer
ry. The combination of these two
towns means city that will be second
to Wheeling on the Ohio river.

A Farce.

A Farce.
Ihose who have read the Evening
Times would be led to believe that the
city marshal is prosecutor and Judge Of
all cases placed in Jail, and that he
should pass sentence on the inmates.
The public well knows that only the
mayor has the power to sentence a pris-
oner, as he is given a hearing before
the mayor, not the marshal. This paper
even has the audacity to say that the
mayor has passed sentence on the
parties who refused to work. but the
truth is the mayor has not given these
parties a sentence. This organ well
knows that the marshal has gone
as far as he is allowed by law
and has fully done his duty. rot
wlthstanding he failed to consult
the Evening Times. The politics of
this paper can easily be seen, and all
know that its object is purely selfish
one, and that which shows to the public
that they have grievance against
some OF the city officers whom they do
not like. The Times predicament in
the present controversy is ridiculous
position, backed by poor foundation.

ON A VINYRY TRIP
Pack Tram OF Fourteen Animals Left
Weiser Yesterday.
BOUND FOR THUNDER MT.
Arrivals From the Camp-Horses Over Secesh
Summit Last Friday.

Yesterday morning a pack train
of fourteen animals, partly loaded
with sugar, beans, bacon, coffee, rice,
dried apples and tobacco, left Weiser
for point on The South Fork of the
Salmon, about twenty miles from
Thunder Mountain The load will
be completed at Meadows by the
addition of flour, which is stored
there The train was in charge of
Joe Butler and Yves futile, and is
owned and QUILTED by w. A. Beaver
Mr. Beaver is pushing goods as near
Thunder Mountain AS possible, in
order to be readysfor the spring rush.
h has has had cabins built on the
South Fork, where headquarters have
been established, and two pack trains
of goods have already been landed
there during the past five weeks, this
being the thlrd train sent out The
South Fork end has been in charge
of John Smith and Hugh McKenney,
and these men will meet the present
train somewhere beyond Meadows.
HI. &. Abrey arrived Tuesday from
Thunder Mountain. He left there
on the 18th and rode to within 800
ards of Elk creek summit, when a
huge snow drift barred his progress.
After shovelng snow ten hours, pas
sage was given up and the animals
sent back 10 Big Greek a by one OF
the party and the trip to Warren was
made on foot. From Warren Mr..
Abrey came out on horseback, find
ing five feet of snow on Secesh sum-
nit, bat well broken trail. 1t was
quite stormy when he reached Mead
ows, and it was predicted by all that
the new fall of snow would close the
trail over the summit.
Mr.. Beaver thinks it will hold open
long enough for him to get his train
over, and even little shoveing
would not deter him; but, if the
Secesh is closed, he will send the
tram down Little Salmon and up the
main Salmon trail and attempt to
get into Warren from that side.
From Warren he can reach the South
Fork without trouble, as it is this side
of Elk summit. If Mr.. Beaver gets
this train in he will attempt to send
two more during the next month and
will 90 in himself in about six weeks.
Messrs Beaver and Smith were in
Alaska together and are familiar
with winter operations in the mount
aims, and if it Is required they will
put on dog teams from South Fork
10 Thunder Mountain to supply the
needs of the people in there. Mr.
Abrey says that all but fifty men
have pulled out until spring.

Some Straight Talk.

EDlIOh DlGNAB IL StcuS 10 me
that the people owning land in the
proposed water district are not suf-
ficiently interested in the important
subject to make success of the
undertaking.
A few years back they would
have given ten dollars or one half of
their land for the privilege of pur-
chasing water, now when, under the
provisions of wise law an oppcr-
tunity is offered of buying and for
ever owning both the canal and water
right at actual value, not cost, they
seem to be indifferent.
say at actual value Of the canal,
for the value of the prior appropria-
ton nor the amount expended in in
creasing the flow of water, by cuts
and fills, which | understand has
been over eight thousand dollars will
not be considered in estimating the
value of the property.
If tn commissioners to be elected
cannot mutually agree with the
owners on a price, condemnation
proceedings may be instituted and
the property taken at its just valua-
ton.
1t is conceded that the price in
Guiding the amount necessary to
make required mprovements will not
exceed five dollars per acre for the
ten thousand acres under the canal
There is no doubt but said land
would increase in value, at least five
dollars per acre the moment the
transfer of the property was made.
Hence, ins reality users of water
would only in the future be out a
maintenance fee, which would not
exceed thirty cents per acre per year.
tits contended that, under present
conditions, we are as prosperous and
that our land commands a higher
price than any where else, so why
not ''let well enough alone. This
we grant is fact. But what have
we to depend upon in the future?
The canal is now owned by cor
poration. The stock is liable to
change at any time. 1t might fall
into the hands of capitalist who have
no interest IN the people nor the
country only to make money.
1t is fact, that the owners of the
water supply and the canal, hold the
key to the entire situation. They
can decrease the value of the land at
pleasure and in many other ways
work hardship on the consumers of
water. If the land is so valuable
why is not the canal and water which
have made 1t valuable, also valuable
The man who invested in said land
fifteen years ago can sell out at an
increase of five hundred per cent.
The man who invested i'll the ditch
business may get his actual cash
back. This relation will surely
change in the near future
The most important consideration
is community ownership. Will the
interest of the people be safer in the
hands OF five trustees than it would
be in a corporation?
President Roosevelt in his recent
message to congress uses this very
pestinent language "Whoever con-
trolls stream practically controls
the land it renders productive, and
the doctrine of private ownership of
water apart from land cannot prevail
without causing enduring wrong"
The president no doubt speaks from
experience as he has lived in the
/, arid west.
Hoping that five commissioners
will be elected who will pull together
and successfully organize a water
district In this, the garden spot of
Idaho, | subscribe myself.
