against me heeilhS lurhisn-
Ing gas to certain business houSes,atter
securing an OPINION from Clty SoIci'oF
Soyce. de believed that II the Wheel
ing company would give Somethlns tor
a tranchise. the conncii committee
would nave recomn1ehdes me aNhehaeu
ordinance favoraeiy to council.
senator Nnltaker ala not see now
the city cou!d ask ior a onslaeration
from the WheelinS company when the
Natural Gas company OF west virgin
lie had been allowed to come In without
"a consideration. He claimed the mar.
ket here for gas should be free n
open. me city solicitor should not
waste. his time hiSsiinS over tecnnicai-
!sies that foster a monopoly. HAD the
West Virginia peen success
fui when the NheelnS Company was
given a limited held here, there would
not have been a foot OF gas burned IN a
wheeling mill. Inc city should throw
OF the shackies thrown around us by
the West virginia Company their
ordinance by which the price otSas was
advanced to twenty cents was bald,
bare-faced robbery. The people should
be given every opportunity to oeneht
themselves. Let the Wheeling Company
be given the opportunity to give to the
people of Wheeling the oeneht OF Its
great gas supply. Council shouid I'M
derStalG this, and should stop this
