Up TO REV. KELLAR.

1t seems that the decision in the Bar
ker case didn't settle it. by any means
Jersey justice has put the husband
in the penitentiary for shooting Rev
Kellar on the word of his wife that he
had assaulted her. The question as to
whether Rev Kellar did commit this
assault or not yet remains to be de-
cided and it is the main point in the
case so far as the general public is
interested. So the Thomas G. Barker
Defense Association has been formed
and held a mass meeting at Arlington.
y. j., at which it was suggested to Rev
Kellar that he clear his name in open
court by bringing suit against Mrs. Bar
ker for defamation of character. AS 1t
stands. a reputable woman has solemn
" sworn that he criminally assaulted
her and nothing has been offered to re-
but this grave charge but his simple
denial.
Jersey Justice should be given an
other opportunity to pass upon the
main question Of public interest in this
sensational case.
1t seems to be fairly up to Rev. John
Kellar to move.

"Hark you, Francis Beauclerc!" said
Sir Charles Anthony, joining me as |
sat moodily drinking alone in the White
Horse Inn, and thrusting close to mine

Here he drew out a score of gold
pieces and jingled them right unsteady.

And presently he went on:
"Bethink you how many bottles of

meals and goodly raiment lie in these

you are the man for my work.

THE STATE FAIR rs COMING.

The West Virginia State Fair and

with the Carnival and Greater Wheel
ing spirit and have prepared to make
the annual West Virginia State Fair
the greatest and most elaborate and
genera ly ut restingand attrac I've event
of the kind yet held under the auspices
OF the Association, which is saying a
very great deal.
Special attention will be paid this
year TO the live stock exhibit aud in
this and ether respects the great show
will be more than ever interesting ard
instructive to stock-raisers, farmers and
agriculturists in general.
The other features Of the exhibits
and the entertainments and sports have
also been enlarged and new and move.
features added all along the line. The
racing will be the finest ever held on the
Island track, which, by the way, is one
of the fastest in the country-some rec
ords have already been broken on it aud
others promise to be at the coming
Fair.
1t will be a show for everybody and
equally interesting to the countrym1n
ard the city chap, and to their families,
young and old-for it will be a good,
clean, wholesome show throughout.
There will be reduced rates on all rail-
roads and you can't afford to miss it.
Wheeling's capacity to accommodate
and care for the comfort of the biggest
crowd was amply demonstrated during
the unprecedented jam of Carnival
week.

for Wheeling that other and infinitely
more practically useful institution.
which Mr.. Carnegie, in his wise and
practical philanthropy, is endowing In
several localities that have asked for it,
namely, the Carnegie Industrial School?
Mr.. Carnegie has established indus
trial schools in several places. notably
in Homestead, Pa, the home of the
great industry that made him the
richest man IN the world.
None understands better than Andrew
Carnegie, who worked his way up the
ladder of success from the very bottom
round, the pre-eminent advantages of a
system OF education which trains the
eye and the hand to utilize knowledge
which, under the present system, is
stuffed into the brain alone.
Since we can't agree as to the Car
negie Library, how would 1t do to ask
the great philanthropist to make it a
Carnegie Industrial School in Wheel
ings case? There can be no ques-
ton as to the advlsability OF such an
institution, nor of Wheelings willing
ness to do It's full share towards Its
maintenance.

men are advised against coercive meas
ureS.
QueSt1on-in your statement you say,
1--WE ask only that the companies do
not Interfere with our efforts of or
ganization and do not prohibit men
from joining our unions" Does this
mean that you will endeavor to have
all members become members of the
union, or will you permit men not
members of the union to work freely
and unmolested so long as union rates
are paid to them?
Answer-We do essay to bring all
men working at trades covered by our
scales into the Amalgamated Associa-
ton. Our rules do not require our
members to modest non-union men.
Question-In your statement you re-
fer to non-union mills. Will you state
in what mills non-union men are now
employed? Are they paid less in these
mills than union men are paid in mills
employing exclusively union labor?
Answer do not wish to state the
names of firms, but non-union mills do
not pay union prices. theirs being lower.
Since the trouble began some OF the
non-union rates have been raised al
most to ours to quiet the men and keep
them from joining the Amalgamated
Association. This is done every year
when the scales are being made, and
the increase at these mills is only tenn
porary
Question-you refer to THE injustice
of running the mills employing the
lowest priced non-union labor during
our dull seasons, while our own men are
idle VIII you give special instances
of exact injustice SO that the Dispatch
can make them public?
Answer-The Salisbury and Old
Union mills are operated. When our
men at above mills suffered they were
inveigled into and assisted by managers
of the sheet steel trust to violate our
scale and leave the organization.
At the recent conference here we
asked two things only-frst, sign the
scale for all mills: second. tell the men
in non-union mills who, under duress,
agreed to keep out of the Amalgamated
Association, that they are free to do as
they please.

TAXPAYER" KICKS
Against the Refundfng Ordinance,
and Gives His Reasons.


To the Editor OF the Register.
Sir:-I see the refunding ordinance
matter is to be taken up as soon as
Solicitor Coniff and Mayor Sweeney re-
turn from their vacation. Now, sir, in
advance | wish to venture the opinion
that in case the ordinance is passed by
Council, the people will defeat it; and
why? Simply because our city officials
have not yet furnished sufficient proof
of their competency to handle properly
the money to be appropriated by thus
spreading a great debt over the heads
of our people. Some of the gentlemen
at the back of this held the very same
positions Of trust they do now, when
$4,000 of the peoples property was
given away to few sharks in the way
of the electric light franchise. II this
was done through ignorance, these gen.
tlemen are incompetent; if they thus in
a single moment wilfully gave away
$50 1000 of the peoples money, they are,
of course, dishonest, and should not
and will not be trusted by the people to
impose a great debt upon them.
Your correspondent Is as much In
favor of public Improvements as any
man In this city to-day; but the people
of this city understand perfectly well
that for many years this municipal gov
eminent has been rotten to the core,
and how much fruit Is to come from the
peoples revolt against this corrupt band
at the last election, remains to be seen.
The new Water Boards record. SO far.

you say. I'VE have never made de-
mand that the steel combine assist IN
forcing men now in non-union plants
to Join our organization. We are de-
handing simply that the combine sign
and enforce cur scale in all their
mills" What Is youy scale? Does 1t
apply exclusively to wages and piece
work? Will It permit the employment
of non-union men in the same mills
with unicn men If both are paid the
union rate of wages?
Answer-(a) Our scale is rate OF
wages formulated by the selling price
of the commodities we help TO produce
OBJ It applies mainly to tonnage work,
but in some cases it is a daily wage
(e) In many union mills where our
scale prevails there are men who are
not members Of our organization. We
think and try to convince men aaat
they should join the Association which
