A Ecu, Remarks
BY WALTER b. HILTON


Y N /HEElIINJ WATER KILLED SIX MORE last
Wv month"; if we are SO accept the statistics Of the
city health department Typhoid infectious disease
1t is not inherited breathed It only from
taking the germ in solid matter into the stomach Ordn
arily it with the drinking water From the time
typhoid germ dumpednto the Ohio river at Pittsburgh
until it finds Judgment the stomach of Wheeling resi-
dent there nothing set up by the of Wheel
ing to stop it.
The is that have been having business ad
mnstratlons all these years. The water considered
only for making steam for the factory owners
and running elevators for the merchants The people who
the factories and stores and city government do
not drink it. Only the poor do that and they don't count
in their eyes.
Now, result Of the persistent agitation of Labor
in the city, to have filtration system but even now
thought they forced to this STEP they still trying
to hold back from adopting the safe and sure way to stop
infectious disease. ~
Happily it seems that aroused people will long
submit to being overlooked The people determined
that their health to be consideration hereafter They
have made their voices heard even the city haul with the
result that the 81 300 report Of the chosen engineers failed
OF its rarOading purpose and council though it lacked
the oppose the Board Of Control also lacked the
oppose the people, and the question of selecting
filtration system is to be put up to the voters
And therein lies great danger. It will be noticed
that the election is not being considered as public cleo
on at ALL but the election officers to serve gratis
if anybody versed in city politics understand what
that means And this vitality public matter to be left
to the unlnterested qnse1shness of private individuals
and corporations.
It may be that it is with the hope that financial inter

possible to show maory of votes for the Chemical Svs
TEN deeply desired by the politicians The office holders
trying hard to bring this about and the daes are
helping by their inacton if not open participation But
all indications against this. ALI sings point to regis
tration Of the pubics opinion in this matter that will be
unmstakeabe and which will prevent longer juggling
with matter that has become one Of life or death The
people know the uncertainty Of wells and they know the
disadvantages of doping the water with chemicals and

Belmont Convention

(COnt1nue0 from rage LII
The committee, retiring, returned in
a comparatively short interval and
submitted the following platform.
Belmont County Platform.
We, the Socialist Party of Belmont
County, in convention assembled, re-
affirm our allegiance to the National
Platform of the Socialist Party of
America and the principles Of Inter-
national Socialism by demanding the
collective and public ownership and
the democratic management of all Ma
wealth production and distribution,
We demand for the workers the &C
cess to the machinery of wealth pro-
the full value of their daily toll
We recommend any and all meas
ures within the restriction of the con-
Cexltion and National Socialist plat
form that will have a tendency to
destroy the present capitalist system.
AS measures to strengthen the work
we recommend the following:
Section I. That inasmuch as the
capitalist officials habitually use their
power in the interest of the capitalist
class and against the workers to the
extent of overriding laws which their
representatives have placed on the
statute books, as we'll as the constitu-
ton of the state and Nation Socialists
elected to Office shall use their power
to improve the conditions of the
working class.
Section 2. That the Socialist Off
Gals do everything in their power to
protect and encourage the workers in
their attempts to organize, always
directing the powers of police for the
protection of the workers in all their
Industrial battles.
Section 8. Socialist officials shall
endeavor to secure to the workers en-
ployed in the county and county NUM-
cipalities the eight-hour work day and
the full protection of the law at all
times.

Unions in Wheeling connected with the brewing industry
and all OF them organizations and all their MEMBERS as
had perfect right to join the movement to
rid the bench OF this disgrace but it. SO happened that
neither organization connected with the prosecution Of
the charges and member Of either organization was
upon any committee charge Of any detail Of the
nent against Dayton.
The thing appears to be but another of DAYTON cheap
tricks to becloud the issue and blind the public
It hardly avail however, for he has slreyplaeed far
tee low the standard of intelligence Of the temperance adj
vocates to assume that their mental cabre is on par with
his own and likely to be swayed from the path of truth
and justice by such narrow prejudice.
r He GOLFERS STRIKE, they say, is settled. and
the men have won the right to belong to union and
that their coal weighs what the cars say it weighs
There is general rejoicing therea But let forget
That while this economic freedom has been for the
workers. that personal freedom still denedfs leaders of
the STRIKE who langushng in the ais of West Virgin
under sentence of Judge Dayton Let us remember tie
and still behind the bars and let us consider
the strike not yet until their release has been gained
been agreed to while nustly in prison. but
now that this has been done, let us get them out
