TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION.
III TICKLE wAHAsH.

A great deal OF complaint has been
made in the past few years concern
ing the Baltimore and Ohio railroad.
and its methods of management In
West Virginia. About everybody has
taken his .lsnocs" al the road In one
way or another. but after all it must,
be said that Central West Virginia
owes more to tie Baltimore and Ohio
than the people are willing TO admit
While other lines have been proposed
and a great deal of hot afrs have have
been dispensed In their behalf, We
have not yet seen any freight or pas.
sengers being h.,rled over the Ram
sey grades or the Gould curves.
Neither have we hoard the whistle Of
the engine on the j. v. Thompson
road he was bnifding when he was
running for the Republican nomIna
tion for governor Of Pennsylvania.
The Immediate occasion Of these
words is the announcement made a
few days ago that the Wabash had
abandoned work on the line from
M--
Wheeling TO Cumberland by way Of
rniontown. Nothing seemed more Ger
tain than the building OF that line.
Maps of tho whole district were pub
lished and the entire plan given to n
trustful public. No doubt many PEG
pie bought real estate and planned
business enterprises along the pro.
posed line Just as they did along the
D. INT N. In this county and Taylor
and Barbour ana various other places.
We shall never forget how pleased we
were to see the mules and men and
yellow dirt along the line of the B..
and N. right of way in the First ward
OF this city. But 1t all came to naught.
The people We're deceived. The rail-.
road management couldn't make good
on what was undertaken. George
Gould. Joe Ramsey or somebody bit
of more than he could chew and the
people were left elingfng 10 false
promises and 81 swinging on the back Of
weak hopes. Until We can get more
reliable enterprises than the Joe Ram
sey side lines cf the Wabash or the
political paper roads Of j. v. Thomp.
son. we rather guess We had better
stick to our first love, the old sub
stantiai B. and o. the road that &C.
tually hauis people and freights.

GOVERNOR DAWSON FINDS Evi.
oGNcE CT PEoNAeE IN WEST
VIRGINIA.

CHARLESTON. I'm. 2s:-in q spe-
.eiai mesaasc ept the legislature
csterday Governor pawsep tells Of
number IL cases OF peonage that
have been prpnrht % his attention by
Secretary Of STATE Roo, 70 whom
eottripihi a. rieae BY the italian
ministry II Masiington.
Governor Dawson caused the mat.
ter to be investigated and his mes
sage covers the evidence collected by
Detectives Cunningham and smith
whom he employed.
The report shows that in three dif.
Eterent lumber and railroad camps sit.
iated in Raleigh, Fayette and wyom-
ing counties, respectively, men have
been compelled to work under d1ress
because they owed money for trans
%portation to their employers; that
they have bean arrested without due
process Of law and that in one in.
stance two men were killed IN what
appears to have been a totally uns
1ustitiable manner.
Governor Dawson, In summing up
at the end Of his message says:
when these men came to Raleigh
county they became dissatisfied and
started 10 return. They were SUM
marily arrested aud deprived Of their
liberty. Possibly they were driven
by the labor agency. either as to TAX.
ing of labor they were to perform. or
as to the compensation they were to
receive or both"
Men Are ae.Arrested.
On paying back to the lumber com.
pany the amount OF their ~transporta-
ton a part of the men were again
arrested. The men were charged with
fraud. Those who did not or could
not pay the money back were impris.
cned. Afterwards they went to work
II peonage. The whole proceeding
shows an attempt to collect a simple
debt by duress which is unlawful.
The Wyoming case shows that these
contract laborers are held in peonage,
guarded by armed men, until they are
unlawfully arrested and brought back
by no gentle means. and some times
by vicious, cruel. lawless men employ.
ed as guards.
The Fayette county a speaks for
.itself. It looks like a cruel, heartiess
and wanton murder of two men by
enc Of these guards"
