our Coal.

E4.F.
In copying an article from our paper in
regard to the coal fields of this county,
the Parkersburs News says: s1
" In consideration of the above facts,
We see no reason why Harrison county
should not supply this vicinity with its
coal, and also karnish large portion Of
the Ohio Valley Coal trade. A market
exists in this place for probably 100000
bushels annually which, if the Railroad
company sees fit, could be delivered here
at a lower rate than is now done by Che
I!river. sr ~+" 'rs
#" As'to supplying the Ohio Valley,
Harrison county would have the ,advanta-
ges Of unexcelled location for loading
boats at the Railroad Company's wharf,
and an avoidance of much the most dan
gerous portion Of the river route. which
is above this place. We hope to see the
trade started at a very early day, there
being at present market for a large guam
tity at this place, many Of our citizens
having purchased but sparingly, expect
ing to receive supply by railroad"
There is at this time material obsta-
Gle to any considerable business being
done in the coal of this country. The
freight charged upon the N. w. Va. Rail.
road is too high to enable our people to
ship coal to Parkersburg and compete
with the river trade. The freight upon
bushel of coal to Parkersburg is little
more than seven cents. The usual price
here is four. which makes it worth eleven,
there. And besides, we un lerstand that
the, railroad company is selling coal at
Parkersburg at 10, and sometimes 9
cents-thus entering into a ruinous com,
petition with private enterprise. We hope
the company wililsee the utility of redu>
cling its tariff of tolls to fair remunera-
tive rate. and leave this trade to private
individuals. If this should be done, our
people, may defy competition. aall

And the editor of that paper proposes that
the Convention be beld on the 1st Of

They both recommend the nomination OF

may be induced to accept the nomination.
Judging from the conduct of that party

pose the Know-Nothings would show their

course would be such a violation of the
