WuEELING, ~. VA, FEsRUARY 50. 1883


Never has year opened with brighter
prospects for the futureo Of Wheeling than
the present one. That energy which has
lSnguished 80 long seems TO have been
stirred up at last, aud the native hue oil
resolution, which hsa ever been siCklied
DER with the palo cast of thought has
stidened its backbone and assumed an &C.
tlvity which promlseD substantial results
The Chamber Of Commences has been the
source, to 0 great extent, Of this regener'
ton, and through It new. businesu enter,
priHes have been encouraged, and ven
lures that possibly would yet BIO lauSuish'
Ing in dreamy sort oil contemplation
and hesitancy have taken practical
shape.
Evidence OF this new life is to bs found
on every hand, and every day something
turns up in tho commercial and mAuufGc'
turing circles gratifying to those who have
the advancement and growth Of the city
moat at heart. By spring two new and
extensive potteriea will be- in operation
increasing the army Of waSe.earners and
adding to the wealth Of the community.
For the frat time in the history Of the city
the railroad facilities promise to be such
as she has long strIyen for, and the dead
yartages she has suffered removed. The
city has given On unqualified endorsement
to the Union bridge scheme in almost
unanimously tsvoring the subscEi ton
Of three hundred Thousand dollars to ia
erection, which is another evidence Of the
awakening spoken of.
The prospects could not well look
brighter And We have not struck the
turn in the long lsno VII have been travel
ing in any too soon. Years have been
spent In bemoanipg the short-sightcd
policy that compelled the Baltimore &
Ohio Railroad to construct their bridge at
Bsnwood. and after citing with folded
hands co long in this sort Of helplets,
daEsd condition, the people have ct last
been brought to realization that II they
did not help Themselves no QUE else
would. The energy aud elcqueuce
spent in pic!uring what Wheeling would
have been had the alleged offer to
Gu! down the hill been accepted, Have
been diverted into more profitable chan
nels, and the GROWERS and groauers have
fallen into the progressive spirit Of the
times, leaving all vain regrets behind.
Taking ono thing with another it Is pretty
clear that we have at last plunged into
the "swim;" and that conservatism which
has always characterized the management
and character Of our commercial and man
uiscturing establishments can be rolled on
to protect us from undue infati and dis
aster. The prospect at present certainly
pointa inward md onward,

In order to make tho boom In this

the welfare OF their immediate localities,

The slumbering wealth that lies hidden
in the lofty mountains in West Virginia

Of enterprise to make this tho best State

Nearly every week we receive news
paper from some point in the West which
contains nothing outside Of that which Is
intended to attract people to the town in
which It il published. It is called q
boomer. 1t fails to speak Of the cyclones
md blizzar6s, Of the Rrasshoppers and
drouths-no, none Of these things-but it
Gays everything in favor Of its section that
is likely to excite people here and cause
them 10 become Dissatisfied, pull up stakes
and go West. This has gone on long
enough, and everybody should endeavor,
and it shall be our aim in the future, to
show that West Virginia has advantages
over any Of the Western States, and 10 dc.
stined TO rank with the richest aud best
in the Union. We have everything here
to make us rich people in time-coal,
iron ore, timber, natural gas, water power,
railroads in operation and others under
way, while the West can only offer chesp
lands, and II the man who goes there and
buyg them isn't frozen to death by the
blizzard, 1t will be because he will be too
deep in his cave in the ground hiding
from the cyclone.

| In All. vi, Of the smslcald. articles,
written BY Luther in 1887, seven years
after the presentation Of tho Augsburg

More Mines Bonded.

The spring mining campaign in the
Custer districts may now be said to be
fairly open The first mining trans.
actions of Importance having been con-
summated on Monday, which, by the
way. were the most extensive yet
recorded in the Southern Hills; in
volving in their transfer the exception
ally large sum of $4,000. The property
bonded, and upon which considerable
amount Of cash was advanced, consists
of twelve tin claims, known as the Lord
Thurlow group, situate near the north
ern limits of this city, on Laughing
water creek, which were bonded by s.
III. Emmens and Hugh Henry for SEQ 600,
bond to run six months. The property
was owned by Capt. G. A. Haserodt,
Charles Harbach, and A. Wilcox of this
city. Also upon the same day, by the same
parties, bond to run until December
3lst, was taken upon five gold claims
adjoining the Penobscot gold lode. seven
miles west of this city, the property of
c. A. Heserodt and Charles Harbach,
consideration $4,000. Also upon the
same day, by the same parties, bond
was secured upon l20 acres of placer
ground, situate OH Laughingwater creek,
near this place, the property of A.
Wilcox; consideration, $4,000, bond to
run six months. Development work
has already began upon the respective
properties under the direction of Capt.
Haserodt of this city, who will have
charge Of the same, pending the arrival
Of man from the east who is expected
to arrive at an early day, who will super
intendend further operations. 1t is the
intention Of the purchasers to thorough.
ly develop the properties with view to
the erection Of an extensive plant upon
both the tin and gold groups, and also
to engage extensively in mining stream
tin; which intentions we are assured
will be faithfully carried out should the
development of the properties, as conf
IDENTIFY expected, warrant the outlay.
The funds necessary to proceed with
the work of development are now on
deposit in the Bank of Custer, and there
is every assurance Of the work being
continued until the mines are thorough
ly developed. Should the mines meet the
expectations of the purchasers. which
there is no reason to doubt, these trans
actions will mark an important era in
Clusters progress and be the means Of
comforting competency upon trio Of
old timers, who have been patiently and
confidently awaiting the mining verdict
for the past twelve years.
Verify, the southern Hills are coming
slowly, but surely and grandly to the
front, all Of which is in strict accord
with CHRONICLE predictions made before
the tide of success had commenced to
turn in this direction.
