HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL
Has Been .ae Record OF tho Entsrp.i,
Glass Works.

Has Been Tho Record OF tho Enterprise
Glass Works.
The annual meeting Of the Enterprise
Window Glass Company was held in
Bellaire yesterday afternoon and the
old board Of directors and officers were
reelected without opposition. It has
been remarkably successful company ;
even in the face OF hard times it has
succeeded we'll, and the dividend paid
yesterday, about Z per cent on the cap
Ital stock and surplus as well, fully at
tests this. One Of the principal reasons
for its success is due to tho workmen.
Tho company is largely composed Of
workmen. Each man works 4or him
self and each for the other, so that all
are benefited. That company aver
aged during tho past year forty-seven
and half boxea per week for each
blower. Tho limit allowed Is forty
eight boxes per woek. This clearly
demonstrates what men can do il they
will. It leaves little room for cavil
over what success depends upon largely
in manufacturing institutions. The
general average Of production in other
factories will not reach forty boxes. In
this one the workmen were interested
in good yield in others they were not
directly interested in the profits Of the
concern. How they worked and the re-
suit Is plain, and it is just as plain that
1t was not more disastrous to the COM
panies than to the workmen.

Tho Work OF Nominating n Candidate
Tackled Late.
The platform having been adopted at
last, after the whole afternoon had
been wasted in wrsngling, nominations
were in order. The nominating speeches
were limited to five minutes aud two
and half minutes for seconds.
The roll OF counties was called.
Brooke gave way to Ohio, and Colonel
Arnett, who had decided not to enter
the race. arose to nominate John A.
Howard. which no did gracefully, aud
at his conclusion there wess tremendous
cheers for Howard.
Mr.. Byrne. for Braxton county, nomi'
mated James B. Fowler, OF that county,
whose name was also chesred.
U. Lee Wolfe, OF Harrison. nominated
Winfield Scott, OF Harrison.
MIR. Brannon, OF Lewis, announced
the withdrawal OF Mr.. Lewis and sec.
onded Mr.. Howard's nomination.
Mr.. Foster. OF Lewis, seconded Fowl
er's nomination. I,
William Loreutz. Of Marshall, placed
in nomination Joseph w. Gallagher, oil
that county. and Capt. DslapIain sec
ondod the nomination. 4.
Mr.. Pendleton had dropped out Of
sight after making an effort TO get into
line in spite Of his letter OF withdrawal,
which he found had been accepted In
good faith, so that much OF his strength
had gone TO Howard. He was voted
for. however, by several counties.
Following 10 the first ballot:

WHO MIR. HOWARD is.
A Glance a. the Career of The Democrat,
Nominee.

A Glance at the Career Of The Democratic
Nominee.
John a. Howard, the Democratic
nominee for Congress, ia tho present
prosecuting attorney of Ohio county.
He has certainly had fortunate career.
Originally q glassworker, employed in
South Wheeling, he became secretary OF
tho American Flint Glass workou'
Union, and while holding that position
no began the study oflaw. Subsequent
~ no was appointed private secretary
to Gov L. W. wilson, remaining
throughout his term. When he left
that office no began tho practice OF law
in Wheeling, and was in partnership
with Hon. J. d. SomOrville whom no do
icNted Hon. L. S. Jordan for tho Demo-
cratic nomination for prosecuting attor.
ney. and was elected to tho Office.
Mr.. Howard is popular man, q
member OF several Catholic societies, q
good speaker, and will doubtless mako
a vigorous campaign.

A delegate from Wetzel disputed the

correctness OF that county's vote. claim.
ing that his district was entitled to q
greater number OF votes than was given
It. Il was held that this matter should
have been settled before the committee
on credentials.
A second ballot was ordered, Braxton
county Withdrawing Fowicrs name.
Joe Gallagher, though having the
second highest vote. Withdrew his
name, thanking his friends Tor their
votes.
The second ballot began amid some
excitement. The withdrawal OF Gala
cher and Fowler relieved tho tension
and many speculations were INDUCED
in rs to where their strength would go.
It was thought there was possibility
for tho Pendleton movement. Brooke
county plunked her eight votes to How
ard. and Hancock followed with another
bunker. Gilmer gave him two. He
gained several votos in Lewis and seven
In Marshall.
Marshall started a Ben Wilson move
with ak votes for him. Wetzel went
as she did before. Braxton Fowfcr's
county, assisted the Pendleton move
with ten votes aud gave six to Howard,
Ohio county gave Howard All this time
and helped the Pendleton business
with eight. Tyler divided between
Scott and Pendleton.
Howard now had 81 votes. Doddridge
helped Pendleton with ID votes. Harri-
son increased her Howard vote to 10.
which gave him within four Of the
nomination.
Gil,ner county changed and gave her
solid vote TO Howard, which nominated
him.
There was tremendous enthusiasm
among Towards friends. The counties
fell over each other in their anxiety to
change. Counties changed in quick
succession and the nomination was
made unanimous.
Pendleton, Scott aud Fowler werc ap-
pointed committee to escort MIR.
Howard to tho hall. His appearance
WAS greeted with great applause. In u
graceful and appropriate speech Mr..
Howard accepted the nomination and
pledged his efforts to secure his own
election. Shortly after the convention
adjourned. O. a. D.

political heirloom for the coming Ameri

on the plot to.restore Queen Lii is III en-

us has not become lost art.

The cartonnists, by the way, appear to
have penchant for building up their pic

some current topical song. The Irish

Considering the immense number OF
pickerel that are being caught these days,
and the small amount Of effort made by
the fish commissioners to propagate this
gamey food fish. the thought occurs that
something of the expenditure made in
planting" trout fry in streams where one
never afterward catches any trout could
be wisely diverted TO stocking our lakes
with pickerel. Give this f.h one-half the
attention bestowed on ths elusive and
mysterious trout, and see what he'll do for
you.
A contemporary in Nicholson suggests
that that thriving village is just he place
for Scranton people to build homes in. This
may be true, but 1t occurs to me that the
best placefor Scrantonians to reside In is in
Scranton itself. The taste which cannot
be suited without going beyond the limits
Of this city will, it is feared, find diff.

County Chairman W. W. Wood of
Wayne county-who by the way ia as
hustling young executive as one would
wish to know--is mention by friends in
connection with the congressional nomin-
alton in the Fifteenth next fall. Another
gentleman who has received favorable e
mention is A. I. Searle. The difficulty in
competing against Represen tative Wright
naturally lies in the fact that Wayne is
only one OF four counties comprising the
district. Republicans in Wayne, however,
