A manufacturing company,
with an established business and
which employs from one TO two
hundred men is looking for Q
location. We refer to the Lob
dell Rim Factory, recently burn
/ ed out at Marietta. Clarksburg

The Canton Bridge Company
have selected the Quiet Dell
quarries to get their stone from,
for the building of the abutments
of the new iron bridge which
spans Elk creek to the new de.

council. The editor of the Ne,Os,

GRAM too insignificant to be
noticed. Yet he proceeds to de-
vote about SIX columns OF editor

ing the article, and quotes about
five columns from the Register ON
the same subject. Why should
the Ne,cs give nine columns to an
article it considered so weak?
The answer is apparent. The
