Is this the Eve of ReSur-
rectiOn Morn?

rGCtlOn MOrus
t On Monday last, Messrs Norcrof
g. Buel. contractors on the ne
l railroad that il 10 be built fron
Lancaster to Wellston. were in th
city. During their stay they visit
ed the old oil well across the river
and viii lie tulking TO representa-
tive of the Sentinel afterwards, ex
pressed surprise. that the people o
town lacked the enterprise to opeI
up the well.
Tney think even now tho vel
would furnish enough gas to run th'
factnrys of this town.
"Will you tell me- said Mr.
Norcroft, why the people, that il
business men, do not take hold oi
the matter and develop nf"
There can be no intelligent reason
why they DO not, and the quill dri-
yer SO stated it, but the question
was too hard and Was given up.
When asked If they were oil men
they said no. They had been look
ing for gas and iron ore during their
stay in this section of the State and
they had found both. The coun-
try between this city and Blooming
vile is rich in mineral. In the
neighborhood of the latter Lamed
place they had found four veins Of
iron ore of superior quality. Many
of the old time fnrnacemen know
that south of this place ore has been
mined that was equal to the best
ore to be found in the Hanging
Rock region.
1t seems strange that the people
will remain inactive while all
a,ounl them are men hunting up
and pointing out the resources of
the country.
If the people will only think fo'
a moment, they vii plainly see that
there has hardly been a commence
ment in the development of the hill
country.
Our hills are big with the best
coal. the best iron ore, the best fire
clays and the best building rock in
the world, and it is not improbable
that the fires OF ihous and furnaces
may yetllght up the rough sterile hills
of Hooking. and the fires be fed by
the great reservoirs of gas that un-
doub,edly underlays this region,
That vast factory at Haydenvllle
map be but The single seed that will
yet grow a colony of enterprises un
equaled iu the States, and if we but
look around Us, we will see. that all
the things that have gwen this re
gion renown will be lost in the shad.
ow of things that NAV be recovered
from the future if We WI! go to
work. |
Gentlemen of the jury, we leave
the case IN your hands.
Our Green township correspondent
sends lis a graphic description of a
& iglt in his neighborhood. NeighDor's |
quarrels. whilst matter of news and
gossip, are not the proper subject mat
Ter for newspaper. The parties in
f fight:reporied are good citizens, per-
haps have been kind friends, and be-
fore the paper printing their unfortu-
nate quarrel gets to its readers, they
may have become reconciled, and bo.h
sorry for the acts done in the heat Of
passion.
The less said about acts where par.
les concerned, are fully sensible they
have acted wrong. is best.
The Sentinel wants news. but we do
not desire reports of dog fights, nor de-
.ails Of the foolish actions of our best
citizens, and Our most sensible men.
These things may be food for chimney
corner gossippers. The intelligent
public don't want to hear anything
lbout them.
