WANT A
COMMISSION.
Property Owners on E&st 1hir.
teenth Street Object to
Being Walled In.

A delegation of property owners
along Thirteenth street appeared
before the meeting of the Directors
of the Street and-Sewer Department
this morning for the purpose of ask
ing for commission to have
Thirteenth street condemned so that
there will be way to get to theil
homes. DR.. Frantz said that the
people living along Thirteenth
street near Railroad avenue could
have a way to get to their homes.
He has a number of lots there and
should he fence them in the people
would not be able to get in. Here
are working people owning their
own homes and they are not specu-
lative people. 1t is an outrage to
build a stone walk in front of these
mems properties.
The former Board passed our
rights away. We believe the men,
bers of the present Board are friends
of the property owning taxpayers.
They need justice done and there
fore we ask for a commission for
the condemnation Thirteenth street
1t is an outrage to ask one dollar
from these poor mon to have such a
commission appointed.
Mr. Carter. Last year the Board
of Trade came here and fought for
elevated road"
Then as now l believed that the
streets should be open. l fought
for that right but the Board decid-
ed different ard the stone wall
building power was granted.
We do not know il WE can do
anything at the present time con-
sidering that the resolution was
passed.
Mr.. johnson said that he was con
tident that the present Board was
as much interested in these men as
could be and that poor or rich
they should be treated alike and
fairly.
lie therefore moved that the mat
ter be referred to the City Soliclto
to determine whether 1t would be
valid to have the commission appoint
ed. The resolution prevailed aud
Mr.. Carter informed the delegation
that an answer will be ready for the
property owners on next Tuesday.
Among those wiospohe in favor of
the commission were Nathan Lieber.
man f. O. Bennett, Robert Nc
Kelvcy, William lIitchen.
The delegation propose TO protect
their rights They do nc! propose to
be walled in by the Company nd be
compelled to goarolnI squares and
wade through marsh land when they
want to reach their homes,
la that section Of the City the
railroad company has to 60 down
twice the depth for its foundations.
The company could readily leave a
space to,raverse Thirteenth Street.
Thirteenth street has been opened on
each side of the railroad tracks.
If as much ashes as had been
placed on Twelfth street would be
put on Thirteenth street, it would
put it IN good repair.
1t is a case of walking with gum
boots in that section. These working
men by their hard earned cash sue.
ceedcd in purchasing homes aud now
the building o: wall by the railroad
company will block all their indus
try.
The corporation can issue bonds
but the working people can issue no
bonds and must lose their life times
earnings. Because with their pro-
pertles hemmed in they can have no
access to their homes and especially
in winter time it would be a case of
swim or get to no home.

by the senate committee on the Phil

first witness called. Governor Taft'S
testimony was in part:
Governor Taft began by saying that
he had gone to the Philippines in the
spring of 1900 and had visited almost
all the provinces during the past
year. He said that in all the Filipino
or Christian provinces there is form

The chances are good for the
Wabash getting a through line form
the Mississippi the seaboar that
will pass through West Virginia
If this Is true, 1t will be good
thing for this State. We are now
In the grasp of the Pennsylvania,
which controls both the B. & 0.
and the c. & o. There Is abso-
lutely no competition In any por-
ton of the state. Rates are made
to suit the roads, accommodations
such as will bring the most money
to the owners are the only ones to
be secured, they are run for the
money that Is in 1t and for nothing
else. The convenience Of the pa
irons Is quite secondary matter.
That Is the railroad condition of
the State today. A competing line
would be the best news that
could come. With the energy
that the Wabash Is manifesting
these days, 1t Is certain that If 1t
gets foothold 1t will soon reach
many different portions of the state,
bringing the blessings of competi
ton of the people. Railroad con-
centration may be a good thing for
the roads. Community ofinterests
may make things safer In Wall
street. But what the people need
and what the country want Is com
petition In railroads as we'll as In
everything else that enters into
their comfort and convenience and
prosperity.
The Wabash Is a welcome visitor
to West Virginia, and we trust 1t
will speedily traverse the entire
Commonwealth with a network of
lines that will bring connections to
all our principal industrial centers.

The recapture of the Biddles Is
good news for everybody. The
whole people were interested In the
apprehension of these dangerous
criminals. Their liberty was a men.
ace to society, and each lover of
law and order felt a personal inter-
est In their escape.
The really ingenlus manner of
their plans seemed to have made
them bold and incautious. That
they should travel together through
the country In an open sleigh with
Mrs. Sofel with them Is almost be-
yond comprehension. The whole
western part of the state was look
Ing for them, and they could not
but have suspected that apprehen-
sion and detection would come
from some one. While the COM
muulty was startled by their es.
cape,it was equally surprised at the
manner of their capture.
It Is safe to say that this incident
will result In extra precautions
being taken In all the prisons of
the country where dangerous Grim.
inals are incarcerated.
