Tothe permanent residents however,
this change has been going forward 50
gradually and regularly, for the past
few years. or ever since our railroads
and bridges have been built that very
few appreciate the rapid growthof this
town. Nevertheless, if the old townioi
ten years ago could be rs-prodnced, and

the railroads; the two great bridges that
span the Ohio and the Great Kanawha,
and the appointments belonging to these
public improvements, bring back the
Long farm and drop out the hundreds
of buildings erected there in the past
ten years; restore the mud walks with
their distractions; drop out the fine
steamboats, with their daily visits, and
the hustle and business at our wharves;
drop ont our dry docks and our saw. and
flour mills and factories; drop out our
electric light plant, and our well lighted
stores and streets, and restore the old
oil lamps, with their dingy lights, when
one had to carry a lantern to discover
the street lamps; drop out our Hook
and Ladder Company, and the brave, eff
ficent men who control it; drop out our
magnificent school house; drop out our
fionrishing building associations; drop
out the new population, the new blood,
the strange faces, and restore the old

good, healthy growth. Nothing fashy
or forced, or sensational about it. The
growth is the natural expansion OF con-

Nothing is being done in anticipation.
Not enough is being done in this direc-
ton or the growth would be faster and
still be healthy. But everything pro-
ceeds on the basis of present needs.
Much Of the old time conservatism re-
mains. Hence we say that there is alb
solutely nothing speculative in our
boom; it is healthy and normal. Or if
unhealthy in any direction it is in the
sense of restriction.
The outlook for our town is especially
encouraging. 1t is good, safe place to
invest money. Quicker returns may be
had from investments where the growth
is faster, but there are few towns where
investments are safer either in proper
ty or business than here. We are sure
to continue to grow, and every year win
witness an accelerated pace over the
