A Needed industry That VI ouid Yield Large
Profits ~

/ Now that the cyclone of wild speculation
has past over the country and everything
| has settled down to sensible business
level, it is not difficult matter to look
along down the lire of different nanufac-
turing industries ard enterprise md point
out the ones that, if properly managed,
would be success at Big Stone Gap. An
enterprise of any kind, in order to be
successful, everything else being farora-
BILE, must at least he located at point
where the materials going into the manu-
| facture of the article can be cheaply and
conveniently secured. at this place,
right in the heart of the finest timbered
! section of the South, there can lie 10 doubt
as to the success of q well-manased fur
niture factory. A factory of this kind To-
Gated here would have a large and rrofita-
bic field to cover, the trade OF which it
could practically look upon and claim rs
its own. The nearest industries Of the
kind TO be competed with are ut Knoxville,
Tenn, and Roanoke, Va. The lnc figured
woods of this Immediate section, instcad
of being shipped away to northern and
eastern factories to lie made into iine fur
niture and then shipped to US at an cnor-
nous advance, would be worked up right
here at home, afford work for home labor
and keep our money in circulation at
home. This is an enterprise that, ii ta-
ken i'm hand by an individual or company
at Big Stone Gap would certainly prove
remunerativc. Can't some, ~ho is in II po-
sition to do so, star. the ball to rolling
in this direction.
The writer's. attention was called the
other day to suit of fine furniture now
being manufactured by the Tracy Bros,
for Mr.. C. E. Dutton. of this place. Tie
suit is made of figured walnut and poplar,
and is not to be surpassed in beauty and
workmanship anywhere in the United
States. Parties who might likely become
interested in such an enterprise as that
mentioned above should call at 1'racy's
shop and examine this suit, and sec what
can lie done in this line right At home.

On last Friday Mr.. H. L. Montciro, one
of the operators of the Daisy Iron Mine
which is located at Hagan, Lee county
Virginia, on the Louisville g. Nashville

L. g. N. freight for his mines with about
$500 in his pocket. to be used in paying
off his men, it being his intention to pay
OF and close down work in The mines till
after the holidays. He reached I1agan in
the afternoon and settled up with ali his
men. After being paid off several OF the
miners got on little too much whisky
and became very communicative to the
public in regard to the state of their
finance; openly announcing the fact that
they had several hundred dollars in
'clcan, cold cash" with which they meant
to paint the country "ycrmilliOn hue
during Christmas and the suspension of
work
The mines arc located close to tie Ken
lucky line, and in the country surround
ing them live some tough citizens, who
for wears have been local terror to that
immediate section. Some of these des-
perate characters happened to he at the
mines and heard the statements of the
miners in regard to the amount of money
they had. After night fall a party of six
or eight of this tough gang organized and
made an attack on enc Of the miners
houses for the purpose Of rohbng him of
his money. Soon after the attack was
made on the house firing commenced and
q bloody war waged for ahout sixty sec
onds. After the firing ceased it is re-
ported that two of the gang were found to
he Killed outright. while IL third one was
seriously wounded. 1t has been impossi-
BILE to get hold Of the particulars and
names of the parties engaged III the trou-
Bile, though it is reported that it was the
same crowd who recently released Rush
Morgan from the Jonesyil!e Jail, who was
