Senseiess Opposition to the Oil Industry

Editor Herald Several years ago
was in Pittsburg, Pa. in company with a
lady OF refinement and wealth. 1t was
in those days when dense clouds OF smoke
coming from hundreds of factory ch
neys settled over the city, giving every
thing decidedly dark appearance. Even
the cheeks of the ladies would frequently
become fiecked with particles OF SCOT
floating in every direction. remarked
to the lady by my side: Don't you
think the smoke and SCOT with which
you are continually surrounded nuis-
anceY' 20. no. sir, she replied. we
know that Pittsburg would not be the
city that it is, commercially, nor our
citizens be enjoying the wealth and pros
perity that they do. were it not for our
great factories, that must produce smoke
in order to produce wealth. When we
reflect upon the great benefits derived
from our factories we tolerate the smoke
and SCOT with cheerfulness.
Sensible lady, What con trast with
some OF our citizens. Occasionally one

probabilities are that If he would clean
his bacl, yard he would not detect such
bad odors. But take it for granted that
the odor from the oil occasionally comes
in contact with his refined olfactories, or
that cloud of smoke from an oil well
engine sometimes floats in the atmos :
phere a half mile from his residence
would it not be far mere sensible to toll
crate such slight annoyance rather than
rage like heather and say that the boz :
ing for oil in this city must be stopped?
Such citizen could take lessons in com
mon sense from the Pttsburg lady. Over
quarter of a million of dollars have been
invested in the oil industry in this city,
and it is rapidly growing and affording
employment for many laborers. as well
as yielding large returns to those who
have invested their money in it.
The district in which the wells in this
city are now being operated was prac-
tically dead until the oil industry was
instituted. Residence lots were being
offered for $500 and $500 per lot without
finding purchasers. During the past five
years you may almost count on the
fingers of your two hands the residences
that have been erected in the territory
bounded by Temple street, Beaudry ave
nue., Second street and Union avenue.
Now that oil is being developed there
