can not detract from their worth, while in
point of ability they are the equal Of any
other three men who might be named from
any party. lis well known fact that in
this city any Of the three gentlemen would
win over Updegraff by anywhere from
500 to 800 majority, which almost equals
the county seat majority Of last fall. How

From Mr.. Kline, the State Mine 1nspec-
tor, We learn that by the laws Of Ohio no
boy under the age Of - years is allowed to
work in a coal mine, and no boy between

The soliciting committee in behalf OF the
Ohio Valley Railroad are hard at work, but
have only met with moderate success.
Some of our citizens appear ready to give
this project the hearty support IL deserves,
while many, Others seem to still go upon
the theory that ii ii the Pennsylvania Com
pany wants the road it will build it. All
We can say about this is, that those who are
in position 20 know, assert that the Penn.
sylvania Company will not build the road
without our help. 1t is very apparent TO
