THE mines at Cheat Haven are
soon to be opened That will be a
coaling station for the b. d. O. The
mines there are the first of the coal
development that is coming this way,
slowly but surely. Others on this

of the new road will be established.
A YOUNG married man Of this town
was seen running toward home not
long since at rapid rate with
bundle under his arm and when ask
ed by another gentleman what was
his hurry, he replied, that he had
bought his wife a new hat and want
ed to get home before it went out of
style.
Mr.. and Mrs. Will j. White ar
rived here last Wednesday from Lo-
gan county, where Mr.. White had
been in the lumber business and
have gone to housekeeping in their
dwelling up Standard Way. 1t is
Mr.. Whites intention to study law
and become member of the Mo non
gala bar.
The missionary entertainment and
festival at the Presbyterian church
last Friday evening was well attend
ed. The entertainment was unique.
1t had been so long since there had
been an "old fashioned festival that
it was the more enjoyed. The Blu
chanan Missionary Band is wealth.
er from the affair.
OTHER things being equal is it not
best to buy of dealers who have per-
manently established themselves in
trade? They will be there, and
when you want to buy, always ready
to serve you, prepared to guarantee
the quality of their goods, to give
low prices, and anxious to retain a
permanent trade Of such are the
Victor Mills people, who will serve
you cheap for cash, with the best
hay, oats, chop, bran, feed meal,
-four, hominy and grain.
II would have been more clever
for the Register to have printed the
items separately and given credit to
the New DOMINION than to have taken
the ones about the West side rail
road, about Vanvoorhis, about the
oil field extension, about the raise in
the price of coal options and about
many other things that were made
into composite article in the Reg
lister office and printed as special
dispatch. If our stuff is worth tax
ing it's worth giving us credit.
THERE is dickering always going
on with the B. & l. company by
small manufacturing concerns, but
the reliability is closely looked into
of each one of these before ARA nge
ments for locating is made, by this
policy none but good people being
encouraged to engage in business
here. To locate small factories is
earnestly desired. 1t is better to
have five small ones employing ten
hands each than one employing so.
There will be some deals concluded
this year.
MARION county is going to improve
the opportunities offered by the B. ~
0. immigration department, which
are to locate farmers on West Vir-
ginia lands that are for sale. This
is a matter which the New DoMIN-
ION has urged for Monongalia's ben
eft There could be nothing that
would boom farming interests in
fhto tah ov1 70 onnfion
than to have some of the hard work
ing, practical farmers of the bleak
northwest settle among us. There
is something wrong with farming
here, and the vocation needs lift
and boom, for surely the farms
are all right.
EVERY business and professional
man in this town should have an adj
vertisement in this paper if it is
nothing greater than a two inch
card In addition to the benefit it
does the advertiser in bringing his
business to the attention of the pub
lie. it is a slight token of his appre-
citation of the benefit that well con-
Quoted and enterprising newspaper
is to town Further. it is notice
to the world at large that his partic-
ular line Of business is represented
in the place by an enterprising man
and gives those seeking locations a
good opinion of the business men
represented. The advertising col
umns of the local paper are good
criterion to judge town.
The court house bond bubble has
evidently gone the way of all bub-
b,es. 1t was like Mckinley times,
suffered too much imitation and then
bust. The law is by late decision
to the effect that without vote OF
tue people county cannot create a
debt in excess of the levy for the
year it is made If that decision
had been made five years ago the
new court house would never have
had beginning. But now it is diff
fefent. The orders are outstanding
for several thousand dollars issued
to pay the court house contractor.
Very we'll Each year ten thousand
dollars of these are called in. A
lew for like amount is made. That's
lawful. No attention is paid to thu
Others outstanding for another year
Then a ten thousand repetition
That's levy for that year. And Sc
on. Then before great while all thu
debt will be paid. There is proba
