The answer is
W = 1, O = 3, E = 0, N = 7
$73 * 137 * 137 = 1370137$
Method:
Divide both sides by $WON$
$NO * WON = 10001 + (E000 / WON)$
$ 0 <= E <= 9$
First consider cases when $E$ is not $0$ and
$(E000 / WON) = X $
$E000 = E * 2^3 * 5^3$
$N$ cannot be $0$ because $NO$ starts from it. So $WON$ cannot have both $2$s and $5$s as factors. If $WON$ does not have $5$s as factors it can be at most $9*2^3=72$ - not a three digit number. So $WON$ is an odd number divisible by $5$.
Now $X$ is obviously not divisible by $5$ because
$NO * WON = 10001 + X$
So $WON$ has to be divisible by $125$. That makes $X <=72$. Which contradicts $10001 + X$ being divisible by 125. So we proved that
$E = 0$ and
$NO * WON = 10001$
To get the last digit $1$ in the product with $N$ and $O$ being different digits we must have $NO = 37$ or $NO = 73$. $37$ is not a multiple of $10001$, so $NO = 73, WON = 137$

Method (Python) :
def digit_sequence(string, digits): # string is sequence, digits are dictionairy with wone
result=0
for i in range(0, len(string)):
result+=digits[string[i]]*(10**(len(string)-i-1))
return result

for O in range(0, 10):
if W == O:
continue
for N in range(0, 10):
if N == W or N == O:

for E in range(0, 10):
if E == W or E == O or E == N:
continue
# Four different digits W, O, N, E
# Now check whether equation is fulfilled

(This isn't PPCG though. Different mechanical means of arriving at the same result don't really provide any new information here. If you want to elaborate on an innovative method as your answer that's one thing; but just providing code that brute-forces the solution, or uses language or library functionality that keeps the actual mechanism mostly in a black box, is little better than stating 'the answer is X because magic'—it provides the same answer someone else already has, and does nothing to explain how to reach it. A comment is fine... an additional code answer probably isn't.)

$ 0 <= E <= 9$
First consider cases when $E$ is not $0$ and

$E000 = E * 2^3 * 5^3$
$N$ cannot be $0$ because $NO$ starts from it. So $WON$ cannot have both $2$s and $5$s as factors. If $WON$ does not have $5$s as factors it can be at most $9*2^3=72$ - not a three digit number. So $WON$ is an odd number divisible by $5$.
Now $X$ is obviously not divisible by $5$ because
$NO * WON = 10001 + X$
So $WON$ has to be divisible by $125$. That makes $X <=72$. Which contradicts $10001 + X$ being divisible by 125. So we proved that
$E = 0$ and
$NO * WON = 10001$
To get the last digit $1$ in the product with $N$ and $O$ being different digits we must have $NO = 37$ or $NO = 73$. $37$ is not a multiple of $10001$, so $NO = 73, WON = 137$

I thought it might be fun to put together a solution that does this with an SMT solver, too. I used cryptol as my front-end, and I think it turned out pretty beautiful. Here it is in a gist just six lines long; an excerpt of interest isisSolution w o n e = all isDigit [w,o,n,e] / no*won*won == wonewon / no != 0

(This isn't PPCG though. Different mechanical means of arriving at the same result don't really provide any new information here. If you want to elaborate on an innovative method as your answer that's one thing; but just providing code that brute-forces the solution, or uses language or library functionality that keeps the actual mechanism mostly in a black box, is little better than stating 'the answer is X because magic'—it provides the same answer someone else already has, and does nothing to explain how to reach it. A comment is fine... an additional code answer probably isn't.)

What's up with the dashes above the letters? Are we negating anything, or how should I interpret those?

I have given some of earlier puzzles as straight combination...as NO..normally concatenation..somebody interpreted as multiplication..one of the editors modified to the current format..each letter stands for a digit..bar above signifies..it is one number
