SALE OF WEST VIRGINIA LANDS
Several weeks ago the Manufacturers
Record referred to report that Il North.
ern syndicate, which included Cornelius
Vanderbilt, III. Mckay Twomb ley and
w. Seward Webb, had secured tract
of 100000 acres of timber and coal lands
in the eastern section of West Virginia,
paying $4,000 for it. 1t was also
stated that the same syndicate had OBJ
tanned control of the Dry Fork Rail-
road line, which is now in operation
thirty-one miles at the head of Green
brier valley, between Hendricks and
Horton. The road has been operated
by Philadelphia company, of which F.
X. Whitmer is president. 1t is under
stood that the purchasers intend eX-
tending the railroad to a connection
with the Chesapeake & Ohio at White
Sulphur Springs, w. Va, through the
tract OF land referred to. In letter to
the Manufacturers Record, Mr.. John
L. McGraw, of Grafton, who has been
acting as representative of the owners
of the property, confirms the report of
its sale. The transaction is one of the
largest of Southern lands which has
ever been recorded, and indicates the
interest which the resources of West
Virginia are attracting among North
ern capitalists. The Chesapeake 81
Ohio Railroad is now Vanderbilt
property, and the railroad which is to
be built will be in all about ITO miles in
length, and will be a direct connection
of the West Virginia Central & Pitts
burg system and the Chesapeake &
Ohio. In last week s issue Of the Mdnu-
Jdcturers Record it was stated that
work on this line had begun.-Manu-
fdcturers' Record.

FINES AND FEES DUE THE STATE.
Gov. Atkinson has addressed the fol-
lowing to the Judges and Prosecut-
ing Attorneys of the State:
A large number of fines and fees
of jurors in criminal cases, which
should be collected by prosecuting
attorneys and sheriffs, and turned
into the treasury of the State for the
purpose of aiding in defraying the
expenses necessary to criminal prose-
cutions, have not been looked after
as they should have been, and in
consequence of this fact the State is
losing every year a large sum of
money which justly belongs to it.
l, therefore, write you and urge
upon you the Importance of bring
ing the matter to the attention of
the prosecuting attorneys and sher-
ifs in your circuit.
have looked into the matter in
one or more of our larger counties,
and L find as a result of such inves-
tigation that the custom is to require
the payment of fees of prosecuting
attorneys, sheriffs and clerks, while
the fines imposed by the courts and
taxation Of juries have in a great
many instances been neglected and
overlooked.
While l do not desire to be consid-
cred as finding fault with court off,
GERS in looking after their own fees,
it seems to me that they should be
required to also see to it that the
State should have the benefit of the
fines and costs. Please direct cspias
pro-fines to issue in matters of this
kind.
