A Grand Success.
The great ovations tendered Postmaeter\peneral
Charles Emory. Smith and.
Congressman Dayton last fright at the
Opera House, the unrestrained! enthusiasm
which prevailed throughout, and
the magnificent trfbutes that were paid
the President of the United States, the
, unequivocal and enthusiastic endorsements
of the policies which are the outgrowth
of the war, the <meers for Republicanism,
and what it has'accomplished
for the country, oil contributed i
to one of the best and most significant
political meetings ever held in Wheeling.
# _ '
It was a splendid success, the house
beta* crowded, and tne powerrui ana
eloquent speech delivered by Mr. Smith
was received in a manner that left no
mfataJce as to the temper of the citizens ,
who crowded the building. The advanced
views expressed by the speaker
In relation to the expansion policy of the
government, were received with tremendous
applause showing an unanimity of
sentiment In line with the President's
policy, and his eloquent appeal* to stand
by the President In the great emergency
through which the country Is parsing,
by the election of a ^ Republican con
j ?? ? ? ~??"i?K ?Kn mnirf
grcsBJDHZJ, was btccicu WIMI MC
enthusiastic applause of the evening.
Kever In the history of the city has a
more enthusiastic political meeting been
held. The significance of U wjs that the
Republicans of the city realize uhe importance
of the election. They are thoroughly
aroused, and. to use the words
of Chairman Hubbard, the "frost will
be repeated to-night," when Captain
Dovener, gallant old Captain Dravo
ami Hon. John A. Campbell trill address
the voters at the same place.
There Is no mistaking the Interest the
' intelligence of this city is talcing in the
election. It was proven last night that
the Issues are thoroughly understood.
It was a good night's work. Let tonight
score another success of a similar
nature. And I^t Tuesday Rive even
more substantial voice to the enthusiasm
for Republicanism and for the national
policies, new and old, which was
so evident last night.
KendelTt Report and its Critics.
One would think that the paramount
Issue of the campaign was the typographical
feature of the biennial report
of Treasurer Kendall, Judging from
some comments in the Democratic
papers. We have quoted liberally from
*r. Kendall^s. report, which makes such
. magnificent showing for the manageu.ent
of the state finances by this administration.
Cornered at every effort
to juggle the figures and hide the Democratic
deficiencies and shortages that are
shown up by Mr. Kendall's report, and
driven to the p*?lnt of doing something
desperate to divert attention from the
' * I' / .ntolrui 111.. Tiprnr>
eloquent- llftUIVO II kVHNMn,, ...
cratic paper* are now adopting the
clinching argument that the style of the
"get-up" of the volume, a departure
from the ntd Mtyle, i# a subject for criticism.
The logic of (hi* situation In that
because Mr. Kendalf save# a big printing
bill to the state by a tier/ method of
?. preparing the volume. th Democratic
party ought to win at the coming election,
regardl**- of the nature of the report
tod what It shows, which is pleasant
for tax-payers to read.

In the old way "would have Iain and ?

lust aa lt? predecessor* have done." The c
work was tabulated and prepared for s
the convenience of the reader, putting 6
the fresh matter on the first pages and i
living much -Information which a report a
>f this kind never contained before. 1
A Democratic criticism-is that the f
.reasurer has not compiled whh the law. e
tie declares that.' ?s,a matter of fact the 1
printing done by the treasurer's office
n previous years has been done without
irarrant of law. Mr. Kendall has com- *
jlled with the law literally, and the publication
will cost but ten per cent of 1
irhat its predecessors coat and answers '
:he purpose Just as well. Mr. Kendall '
?*w fnrrh?r thnt the illustrations were c
nserted (or the purpose of ihowinr the 1
:ltl?ens what their public building* look '
like, and for the further purpose of '
'saving the book from <he waste bas- 0
tel." Concerning the bank statements
ttntalned In the book, which are the j
lubject of criticism, tbojr are statements a
>f the state depositories which hold the t
state's money?the more than a million 4
dollar* that Is in the treasury as the j.
result of good management, and the ,,
people are entitled to kpow the condition ,
they are In. They ore not advertise- ^
nents. n
The fact that the Democralc papers, a
In the absence of potent truth* upon r
vhlch they can build a successful attack
)n the showing made In the report, have
made an attack on the manner of It* ^
preparation, as an Issue. Is the cause for P
this explanation, which Is due to tho ?
.reasurer. In the meantime, the citizens 0
will pursue the even tenor of their ways, I)
and vote according to tne enomiiK tuuuo )t
superior business methods prevailing s
now-a?days at the West Virginia state e
house. a
Denying the Truth. f
The Register denies the truth of the*
showing of the conditions which prevail
In this Industrial community, made by n
the Intelligencer or> Thursday, and the *
comparisons made with the conditions
during Democratic days. It declares the c
whole matter to "be a "fake." The Intelligencer
quoted in ^hat article reputa- *
ble citizens of the community engaged A
In manufacturing, ami business men and 8
merchants of all classes. It showed a *
most remarkable improvement in our industrial
condition, the greater number ,
of men, the cases where mills are over- (
run with orders, the fact that Idle men
are rare/ the increafed volume of business,
the enwr enterprises, and the fact v
that mill hands, glass workers and the
employes of ail Iiaesof manufacture, instead
of working part time, have all the
work they can do, in contrast to the t
three yeare proceeding. For authority i
we have the men themselves, the state- J
ments of the operators, and other evi- I
dences that every one In Wheeling and t
thte section of the Ohio valley are famil- t
iar with. In the face oi what every one s
knows to be true, the Kegister declares 1
it is all a fake. J
What do the people of Wheeling think |
of this^ with the evidences of better I
times all about them? Why doesn't the 1
Register investigate these conditions? \
Let it go to the industri.il establish- a
ments of Wheeling and fairly report the 1
conditions that prevail, comparing them *
with the conditions bf two years ago, a
which it can obtain from the same e
sources. Let It ascertain that there are j
hundreds more men steadily employed F
than there were then and be honest r
enough (o puoitsn me u?o.
Mr. Vflsoa Then and Now.
Mr. William L. Wilson haa been heard
from for the first time since he retired
from politics to assume the presidency r
of the Washington and Lee University *
In Virginia. In an address before-.the \
legislature of Georgia he ridiculed the c
idea of manifest destiny 1n connection 1
with national expansion as the "excuse 3
of the thief."
This isn't the first time Mr. Wilson
has been against the popular idea of j
things and extension of our great commercial
and Industrial Influence. Not- I ^

ot "the markets of the world," which he
hoped to gain through his free trade c
policy, he has lived to see those markets J
gained since a return to the policy j
which he sought to overthrow, and the J
widening: of our commercial conquests, J
which he declared never could he pained ,
save through the application of his ]
theories.
Mr. Wilson then fond of calling
the argument of the protectionist by a (
somewhat similar name to that which I
he applies to those who wouJd now <

for which provision had been made, ow- i
ing to the sudden cessation of hostilities, '
a large share of the proceeds of the pop- j

banks in all parts of the country. This I
kept the money In the channels of trade. *'

The Chronicler tail* of Israel's neglect
of the temple In graphic phrase.
They showed their tacks to It, Instead
of their taces. They shut the doors, pot
out the lamps, and ceased from Incense
and offerings. Neglect of a public edifice
Is a species of vandalism, slower
but ultimately as effective as the hammer
of the Iconoclast. When sweeper
and artisan left off their dally work,
filth accumulated, and the holy and
magnificent house was on the verge ot
dissolution.
The noble spirit of Hexeklah. one ot
the three perfect kings of Judah, could

was tn rwnM cleans,*, and mend the
Lord's house, and get Its furniture
ready for use. It required sixteen days
of continuous labor before the last load
of debris and tilth front the Innermost
part was dumped Into KJdron. The ritual
of Moses and the orchestra of David
were hastily revised, and .king,princes
and people praised with gladness and
worshiped. Hexekmh naturally
.wished to crown this revival by observing
the Jong-omitted festival of the
Passover, and to make it the occasion
of a national reunion o| the long dismembered
empire. This he could do
without having sinister motives ascribed
to him, for the northern kingdom was
I already extinct. The king's carefully:
worded appeal was carried by flying
(postmen from Dan to Beersheba. It
was treated just as the urgent gospel
| message of to-day le. Some mocked;
j home humbled themselves. The latter
! were numerous enough to make a great
i assembly. The simple, beautiful, significant
rite of the Passover was observed
again under happy auspices. ....
