F. Tlghe occupied the chair i^jul secretary J. C. noes was at the desk. There was a small attendance of delegates. Minutes of the preceding meeting were read and accepted. The following new delegates were admit ted: Journeymen stonecutters' association ?John Lalng, WlUlam Stubbs and Thomus Nary. A delegate of the stonemasons' union objected to the admission of the dele gates because the law* of the two or ganizations conlllet, but president Tlghe ruled that as the stonecutters have a charter from thvlr parent body, they were entitled to representation In the assembly. A delegate wanted to know what had become of the apjdicatlon of the as sembly to the Wheeling Hallway Com pany for chooper street railway fares for the working people, but the com mittee to which the matter hail been referred, could give the assembly no light. Another delegate wanted the assembly's voting strength thrown against certain candidates who are on the street railway board of directors. No aetion was taken, although there was an extended discussion. President Tlghe reported the pro ceedings of the general charter commlt tee. lie claimed his position in the commitico was the occasion for oppo sltlon by the majority. He reported having submitted th.- several resolu tions advocated by the assembly.which had been Incorporated In the charter, without; however, making the provis ions law. The charter merely gives council power to pass ordinances In accordance with th<- resolutions. At Saturday night's meeting the board of public safety clause, upon which the assembly has stood steadily in opposi tion. was passed, by a vote of s t?> 3. According to the assembly's instruc tions he had withdrawn from the meet ing of the committee when the board of public safety clause had been adopt ed. Mr. Tighe's report was received and accepted. President Tlghe Introduced the fol lowing resolutions, which were adopt ed. Resolved. That the Ohio Valley Trades and Labor Assembly hereby declares that strict adherance to Its rules and Instructions Is one of the most important tenet.". Resolved. That as \V. J. Rodley. one of our representatives on the charter committee violated the trust reused In him by not only voting against the In structions of this assembly, but antag onized his colleague at the same time; be It ' Resolved. Thai h!.-' local be notified of the action taken by him and a suc cessor to bun bo requested to be elected by his local. There was a heated discussion on the resolution in which a number of dele gates took part. One delegate favored tabling the resolution as It would have tfc-* effect of dividing the :H?embly strength In opposition to the new city charter. Most of the delegates who spoke, however, jumped ?*>n Mr. Rodley rough shod and it was seen the senti ment of the meeting was greatly In favor of the resolutions. Finally a mo tion to adopt the resolution was put and pass <1, with but one dissenting v.*C. The committee was then dis charged. A delegate reported that the public library will place on file two labor Journals. When It came to the selec tion of two papers there wa* a very lively discussion and much time was wasted in doing nothing. Among other papers, it wan suggest ed that th.? National Labor Tribune, of Pittsburgh, be named. President Tlghe opposed this step, and was pressed for his reasons by Mr. Llewellyn. Mr. Tlghe answered that until three weeks ago he had believed the Tribune was a good labor paper. At that time, how ever. he hail changed hi* views, be cause of certain political"articles that appeared.favoring the Republican can didates. Kx-President (Irogan said If It evil Id be proved that the paper had printed articles favoring the election of M. KInley, he would not ask that it be placed on Ille in the public library, but. h< added: "You can't prove It. It is one of the fairest papers In the coun try." Finally a motion to have a commit ter of three select the papers was adopted. The president refused to ap point the committee when a motion was made that such a course h?? taken. Messrs. Riley, Cline and Donne were appointed. Wheeling Typographical Fnlon No. T'.i reported the following firms author ised t.' use the union label: Intelligen cer Publishing Company. West Virgin la Printing Company, Pan Handle (Jrocer, (Raer's Sons Co.,) News Pub lishing Company, K. M. Pierce. The Hullard Prlntery. Robertson brothers. The legislative committee of West Virginia reported regarding the test of coal as fuel at the* city water works pumping plant. A report will l>o made of tl>? result of the te?t at a meeting of the board next Monday. Various committees had nothing to report. Secretary Roes read communications from the Democratic and Republican state committees, given in fnil in an other column. The Steubenvllle Typographical Union risked for particulars of the steps necessary to secure membership in the assembly. The secretary will furnish th- Information. ,\ resolution approving the action of President Tlghe In resigning his mem bership on the general charter commit tee, was passed. A delegate favored the assembly en tering a vigorous campaign against the feature of the charter which takes away from tln? people the right to vote direct for chief of police. A delegate moved that ail unions be asked lo vigorously oppose the adop tion of the now charier. Another mem ber wanted the matter referred to the advisory committee, when a plan of opposition could be mapped out. The formation of a good government club, exclusively mentioned In Saturday's intelligencer, by those who favor the new charter, wan spoken of. and it was suggested that tl:?* assembly take steps at once to oppose the charter's adoption. President Tlghe suggested a general committee, made up of mem bers from the several ?vajrds. who shall interview counelhncn and ask for their opposition to the charter. A motion was then put that a committee on charter opposition, ?'C three members from each ward, be appointed, but It was with draw^, and n motion f ?r the appoint ment of an advisory commlltiV was pawed and President Tlghe appointed the committee as follows: Messrs. Collins, Grogan. Donnelly, Foster and Ha uer. A delegate objected t<? a publication In the InlcHIgeiiccr two weeks ago and moved that the reporter be excluded from the privileges of tl?o hall. The motion was not even seconded. As explained by President Tighe the pub J lent I nil wild the result of a misunder standing, rho trouble with the dele jrate wan that ho fnlled tci think before lie leaped,and as the assembly general Iy was more level )>.,ucIo?l, his motion fe.l Hat. CAPTAIN CRAWFORD Aililrciara n Mm'a Mri-tlug V. M. C. A.-Mi?inrttiliiK or Ilia < nrerr In Hie l'?r Weal ? III* I.Mri itiy Work. The regular young men'H meeting at the Young Men'H Christian Associa tion building yesterday ufternoon wan largely attended. Captain "Jack Craw ford," the "Poet Scout," made an ad dress, touching and eloquent. Ill* de scriptions of church life on the plains were very Interesting, and the ser mons l?y the cowboy preachers, given in their own vernacular, wore Intensely Interesting. Captain Crawford believes that tie? most good can be done to humanity by getting down among men and associating with them, never liv ing above them, but on a plane with them. Ih? told of the good accomplished by "Brother Hush" and "Pony Hill," two converted cowboys. By their plain talking and earnest Jives they have re claimed many from the gambling and liquor dens, so common In western towns. A sermon on the Prodigal Son by Brother Hush was given In synop sis by Captnln Crawford. As told In the cowboy vernacular It was greatly enjoyed, yet withal, it was pathetic. Captain "Jack" gave a good, sound temperance talk nlso. Ho Is not In fa vor of 1'rohlbltlon. lie said that the American people cannot be compelled to do a thing: but by going around in a practical way, lifting up the fallen and showing them the misery and wretchedness, results of drinking, the number of drunkards would lessen. This must lie done by men who have a thorough love for humanity in general; not the kind of Christians that never move from out the ".xmen rorner" of the church. Captain "Jack." whose full name, by the way. is John Wallace Crawford, cave a short history of his life. A mother's request, made him promise never to touch liquor thereafter. This pledge he has always kept. Years after his mother's death, thoughts of that promise given her at her death-bed, suggested the theme of a beautiful lit tle poem, "Mother's l'rayers," which he recited yesterday. Captain Crawford was born In Ire land, in 1SIC, came to this country while yet a child, settling with his father In Pottivllle. Pa. At the break ing out of the war. he donned the coat of blue. He was wounded in the leg at Spottsylvanla. causing him to be lame ever since. His father was killed six days later. At the close of the war he went to the frontier, and became a great scout. He served through oil the frontier wars, and was wounded twice. For twenty-three years he has been chief of the government scouts. Re fusing to allow his name to be used In dime novels is one reason why he Is not so generally known. He Is a genuine product of the great south-west. Captain Crawford at all times has taken deep Interest In lifting up the fallen. He claims no particular de nomination, but labors for the cause of all. He is free from any prejudice against his southern opponents In the rebellion, and has many warm Con federate friends. He Is a poet of no mean order, and contributes sketches and poems to magazines. Strange *o say, he never received any education To a school room, but picked up all his learning by contact with oillcers and their wives, whom lw met In the west. He always had a taler.t for versify ing. 131s first poems were In dialect, ?as are the most of them?for which he gives the reason that if he made any grammatical errors, he would not be criticised. He was so delightful!v entertaining yesterday afternoon, that the large audience was sorry when he got through. It Is hoped that his promise given to return, will come tru*. If so, many will enjoy the treat of lis tening to this eloquent product of tlx? plains.
