THE INTELLIGENCER.
WHEELING, sEprEnaEa ~, 1897.


At the meeting OF the state geological
board in this city Thursday, on the gov
ernors call, one of the most important
works ever prosecuted by the state was
inaugurated. Although West Virginia is
known to be one of the richest states in
the Union in natural resources, and has
been making remarkable progress in the
line OF development in recent years.
thanks to the capital which realized the
existence of the great field waiting to be
opened up, the state has never had a
complete geographical survey. 1t Is
true the general government and the
state university have done something In
this line, but complete survey has
never been made.
The action OF the last legislature in
appropriatIng money and providing for
a board to undertake this important and
much needed work came at time when
the whole country was on the eve OF
greater activity. and when the restored
confidence In Investment circles justified
the belief that West Virginia would re-
celve her share of attention from inquir-
ers who would be looking for rich fields
OF operation.
The great wealth of natural resources,
and the wonderful riches stored in our
hills and valleys have been widely ex-
plotted. and capital which has already
come into the state has found that the
half has not been told, But while West
Virginians have been satisfied that no
claims have been exaggerated, there has
been, owing to the lack OF complete
survey, an absence OF precise data to
show the skepdcs Capital, though eager
in It's search for rich fields for invest
ment, is also timld. 1t wants authorita-
tive statements, based on actual facts
and conditions. In this respect this state
has been behind her sister mineral and
forest states, and 1t is to catch up with
the procession that the work of the sur
vey is undertaken.
The board has begun Its work in
business like way; 1t is composed OF men
OF ability and enthusiasm who will push
the matter through to completion. Gov
ernor Atkinson was not far wrong when
ne said that there is more natural wealth
In West Virginia than even many OF her
own citizens realize, and the Intelligent
Ger predicts with him that there is a

satisfaction of Mr.. Elklns, and other
supporters OF the proposed policy, who
comprise the entire Republican party,
which Voted for 1t year ago,
The above is a pretty long sentence,
but we believe 1t answers the questions
and untruthful assertions contained in
a very lengthy and somewhat menda-
cious editorial in the Bryan organ. We
might add that II the Register will read
up on the history OF the legislation in the
early days of the republic, in which this
Identical policy proposed in Mr., Elklns'
bill was In force, and learn the effect It
had in building up American shipping
interests and the merchant marine, 1t
will be competent TO discuss the matter,
not from blind partisan standpoint, but
from the standpoint OF fairness based on
knowledge,
Some OF our neighbours comments on
Judge McKenna's opinion, and the in
tent of the Elklns bill, certainly prove
that there is need of better education In
the direction OF adopting means to re-
store our merchant marine"

The esteemed Register is Informed that
the Intellgencer's position on the ques-

is to-day what II was before the recent
rendering of Attorney General MeKeh-
mas opinion: that Mr.. McKenna's opin-
ion does not declare the policy unconstt-
tutional and absurd, as the Register
seems to think 1t does; that his ruling on
section % Of the tariff bill was based on
a tochnicallty. which he fully explains;
that the question OF the wisdom or legali-
~ OF the policy Of thus building up our
shipping Industries was not submitted
10 the attorney general; that the word
ing OF the section in the Dingley bill left
doubt MS a. It's real meaning and II was
this which the attorney general passed
upon; that the Intelligencer did not say
that the section was placed there by Sem
ator Elklns, but that, with few
changes, It was substantially the same
aFthc senator's bill. that Senator Elkinq
will Introduce at the coming session OF
Congress a separate bill to secure the

The esteemed Register grows angry
when the Intelligencer quotes indlsputa-
BILE statistics showing the growth of the
tin plate industry in this country from
It's beginning, after the passage Of the
Mckinley bill, to the present, and when
this paper calls attention to the fact that
even under the terrible "Dingley lniquI-
ty' new mills are being constructed,
When our nelghbor gets angry enough
to indulge in mean personalities and be-
gins to abuse an opposition editor as
Ignorant" and dishonest" SC, there is
but one conclusion for the public to ar
rive at, which Is that the argument Is at
an end.
The Register accuses the IntellIgencer
OF ignoring certain things, and of palm
ing off tin and terne plates which 1t al
leges were made in this country before
the passage of the Mckinley bill, as the
bright" tin now made, and which 1t
says has only been made since the VIII
son bill passed. Perhaps our neighbor
will permit US to quote. without the risk
of being vuigarly abused, the govern
ment statistics on which our statements
were based and to convince our nelghbor
OF It's own mistake.
The following table. from the reports
OF the special agent of the government,
will confirm the Intelllgencer's former
statements and show that distinction
is made between tin and terne plates,
They are the statistics prepared under a
Democratic administration which had
sneered at the possibility Of tin plate be-
ing made In America, and were prepared

production must reach a certain
amount within a specified time or the

The following poem by Rev. DR.. Franz
NJ. Gregg, a native Of Ohio county, wa
read at the banquet OF the West Virginia
Society at Chicago, held at the Sherman
house OF that city, last year. and has neve
before appeared In print:
Hail the PAM All hail tho Handle!
Handle greater than the Pan;
Paradox In West Virginia,
One horse greater than the span.
Paradox like Ursa Major,
Tail far greater than the bear,
Handle longer than the dipper,
Thus It's bazoned In the air
o, the hills of West Virginia,
Hills In memory so green,
Rich In foliage, fair In flowers,
Dearer still In folks I've seen.
Fishing in the run for minnows,
Sweetest Joy In all my life,
'Cept the girl that sat beside me,
Pin hooks seldom catch-a wife.
Saw tho place last dry September,
Sat beneath the old elm tree;
But heard no ripping water
Heard no voices dear TO me.
Saw the school house. near the hlckry
Which we dubbed for nuts with glee;
But IT'S grown too old for clubbing;
All! found 1t much like me.
Changed the scene in West Virginia,
Hills and valleys rich Of late,
Since our Old Dominlon's peril
When midst war was born our state,
West Nlrglnlans. We are lucky,
In our birth among the hills,
Had no knowledge Of the landing,
But there are no sweeter rills.
Gentle folks. true West Virglnlans:
Who'll dispute II? No one can;
But the hest place for ones "bornln''
Is the Handle-not the Pan.
