attracting more attention in the
east than ever before in its his
tory. The election of a Repnb-
li:an governor has done more to
favorably impress capitalists
with the desirability of investing

large place in the public mind.
This was proved by the attention

and vast business interests, and
men of wide ACQUAINTANCE. West
Virginia has no canse to be
ashamed of its governor and
staff and their prominence IN
