At the bottom Of the commission is
the oath 10 which Brigadier General
Mathews prescribed and which was ad-
ministered by Robert Taylor mayor Of
Norfolk Borough, December &c, 1893
Present Court With Seal
Other papers possessed by Mr.. Pentz
include one, the acknowledgment by
the county court of the county by
Mathews, of the gift Of a seal by tho
Honorable Thomas Mathews. Esquire
for the use OF that court, I'm grateful
return of the high esteem and respect,
which was shown him on the erection
and establishment Of the county OF
Mathews which was named after him.
Brigadier General Mathews at one
time was speaker Of the House of Dele
gates Of Virginia, and his worth and
usefulness while accompanying that
position. is touched on in the acknowl-
edgment of the gift OF the seal by the
court.
History Of General Mathews
Accompanying the priceless papers
already described. there Is a snatch OF
the history Of General Mathews.
There he stands" il reads, "with
the figure Of Apollo, and with the spirit
Of Mars. clad in the blue and bum Of
the Revolution. wearing the sword
which he had worn through the strug-
gle with the mother country. his we'll
powdered head surmounted by the old
cooked hat. which he had worn when
driven from Fort Nelson by the my
rmidons of his British namesake."
To his dying day. which happened on
the eve of the late war with Great
Britain, on all stated musters he ap-
peared in the field in full uniform, and
was greeted by old and young with
applause He was a native of St.
Kits left the island before the Revo-
luton. performed his duty gallanuy
through the entire contest for inde-
pendence. and had long been mem-
Der Of the House Of Delegates Of Vir-
ginia. of which ne was again and again
elected speaker. He served in the As
sembly at a memorable period. He re-
corded his name i'm favor Of the bill
establishing religious freedom and
many other important measures at
that time received his support
A Characteristic Act
One OF the most characteristic acts
Of his life was while on a visit TO his
brother at st. Kits The French fleet
lay TO off the island. and levied a sum
of money upon the people. which they
paid. The French then levied another
sum, which the people Of the island
were wholly unable to pay. In this di-
lemma the people of st. kits had re-
source to General Mathews. who,
dressed I'm his uniform as an American
general. went on board the hostile
fleet and induced the admiral to accept
an order from him on the American
consul in Paris, for the sum i'm ques-
tion. The fleet sailed away and the
island was safe. In due time the order
came back protested. suit was brought
and Judgment obtained against him,
and the venerable patriot spent his
last days in prison bounds for a dobt
which the British Government should
have paid.
General Mathews died on April 90,

THE BOISE TRIAL.

The jury that will try Frank Hay
wood at Boise has at last been secured,
the opening statements of counsel
for the prosecution and for the defense
have been made, and the taking of tes-
timony is now under way. The Wage
worker believes now that Haywood
and his confederates will have fair
trial Not because there is any dispo-
sition on the part of the prosecution
to play fair, but because they are
afraid to do otherwise in view of the
deep interest manifested in the case
by the millions of union men through
out the country. No one who has fol-
lowed this case from its inception with
intelligent discrimination will have the
hardihood to deny that the first in
tention was to railroad Haywood, Moy-
err and Pettibone to the gallows. The
men behind the prosecution little reck-
oned that organized labor would be
so unanimous in demanding square
deal" They figured that there would
be some cutlery at the start, and that
attention would be diverted and union
forces divided by cheap political clap
trap, just has it has been a thousand
times before. But organized labor is
learning it's lessons rapidly. 1t is get
ting together more solidly than ever
before in it's history. The Moyer-Hay-
wood case will have been we'll worth
while if it teaches the lesson that or
ganized labor means something more
than merely standing together for bet
ter wages and shorter hours by con-
tract agreement; that it means stand
ing together politically and socially as
well as industrially.
The prosecution has promised won
derful things. 1t remains to be seen
whether it can deliver the goods
Twelve men will say whether he
is guilty or innocent, but that verdict,
whatever it is, must be in accord with
the verdict that well be rendered by an
unbiased and intelligent public whose
millions of members are going to fol-
low that evidence as the evidence in
no other murder case was ever fol-
lowed.

Riches

When Dean died the general public
paid little attention. A few whom he
met every day merely paused a mo-
ment when they heard the news and
said:
Dean dead? Well, that's too bad"
Then they passed on. A few others
paused a little longer and some of
them said:
HE was a poor manager, and never
saved any money. He left nothing
when he died Wonder what his fami-
ly will do?"
But Dean did not die poor. He left
behind him legacy of riches that
even Rockefeller might envy.
He left behind the memory of a
man who never saw human soul in
distress that he did not try to comfort
it. Scores of men revere his memory
because Dean sacrificed his own COM
fort more than once to feed them and
to help keep their little ones from
want. Widows of his comrades re-
member him gratefully. for his hand
was always ready to help them. His

every daily walk was a streak of sun
shine in dark places, for his ready
smile, his quick sympathy and his
helpfullness scattered cheer wherever
he went.
He left his family we'll provided for,
because he laid up treasures in the
hearts of men, and they will see to it
that Deans widow and children shall
never suffer want. He was possessed
of neither gold nor jewels when he
died, but he was possessed of that
which is more precious than gems or
much fine gold-he had the love and
respect of his neighbors and COM
rades.' He left his children the legacy
of an untarnished name and memory
of fathers constant love and care.
To his widow he left the knowledge
that he was loved by all who knew him
because he was good husband, a good
citizen and a good father
Such man as Dean always dies
richer than Croesus. He laid up
treasures upon which not only his
family can draw through the years
to come, but upon which he can draw
through all the ages to come.

DECLINED WITH THANKS.

An advertising agency last week Of
fered to The Wageworker contract
for advertising a local plumbing con-
Germ, the contract amounting to $36
for twelve months. Like most labor
papers The Wageworker needs money,
but it did not need it badly enough to
accept the preferred contract, for it
was an advertisement for a non-union
plumbing concern. This concern, like
several others in Lincoln, has sew
eral former members of the Plumbers
Union in its employ. They were bam-
boozled into becoming partners" in
the business, and they bit at the bait.
The Wageworker could add not less
than 81 900 a year to it's advertising
receipts if it would consent to adver-
tise non-union concerns, but it would
lose lot more than that. In addition
to losing the support of union men and
women, it would lose it's own self-re-
spect.
If there is a manufacturing indus
try in Lincoln that employs union la
Dor, The Wageworker will do every
| thing it can to boost it's business and
| the concern need not carry a dollars
worth of advertising unless it wants
to do SO. But there are manufacture
| ing concerns in Lincoln that could not
| buy advertising space in The Wage
| worker at any price.
