WEST VIRGINIA DEVELOPMENT
During the past summer and aut-
ann the Baltimore Sun gave a great
deal of space to letters and reports
from its staff correspondents describ
ing the industrial progress which
West Virginia is making and aid
ing the efforts ofour people in every
way at its command. The develop
ineut now going on in West Virgin
ia is important enough to challenge
attention, but no journal published
oar OF the State seems to have
seen is with the friendly regard of
the Baltimore San. Within the
few years the Ohio river boundary
of the Stale has been paralleled
with a rail route; the West Virginia
Central Railroad las been construct
ed; numerous rich coal fields have
been opened; many towns have been
founded; varions industries have
been started; thousands of people
have established themselves in CON-
Portable homes; thousands of acres
al land have been brought under
cultivation; and if the same progress
iseness is continued few years
longer West Virginia is bound to
exert an influence and power never
exercised by the State before. A
good deal of the capital employed
in developing the States resources
is Baltimorean, and many interests
of the Monumental City are closely
identified with West Virginia, but
OF them all there is no more stead.
fast or friendly influence than that
Of the Baltimore San.
