his office. The area of the city is 3I7
square miles, and the population is
estimated at the start of the new
year at 3, 350,000. The assessed val
uation of the real estate is 50, 367, 600,-
600 and of the personal property
S404, 900, 900. 1t is probably as great as
the realty. The population is larger
than the original thirteen colonies
contained at the close of the Reyolu-
tionary war. Mayor Van Wyck has
staff OF 10000 employees, a salary
list of $50, 1000, 900 and the expendi-
ture of $75, 900, 600 a year for the sup
port of the city and the extension of
its public Improvements. At the
beginning of this century, when the
second centennial of the settlement of
Manhattan island was celebrated, the
municipal expenses of the city of
New York amounted to $500 per
annum. OF this total, $500 was
paid for maintaining wells and pumps
to supply the people with water, To-
day Sc, 600, 600 is spent annually for
that purpose. In 1909 So, 900 was
spent for the improvement of the
streets. During the next year from
s., 900, 900 to IS, 900, 900 will be ex-
pended. Then the fire department
cost Sic, 900 year. In 1897 So, 500
600 was paid for its support. In 1909
$34, 600 was expended for charity. In
1897, 81, 537, 900, and there was a cor
responding increase in expenses all
along the line.

On Monday George Baker, acting
as special commissioner, sold in front
of the court house the hotel property
on Cheat known as Mont Chateau to
A. NJ. Voight, of Pittsburg, for
$1,000, that being the highest bid.
Mr.. Voight, the purchaser, was the
manager Of the resort for some time
and has been connected with the ven
ture in several capacities. The prop
erty has not been paying invest
ment although there is but little
reason why it should not be. The
new owner and several attorneys have
gone over to look at the property to-
day. 1t is not known what DISPOSE
tion will be made of the resort, but it
is likely that it will be opened next
summer for the entertainment of that
portion Of the public who want a first
class place to spend the heated term.
We hope that the up hill work in con-
nection with the affairs of the hotel
have passed and that it will in the
future pay handsome income to its
! owner.

his arm was caught between the cross
head and the tagging, and before he
hardly knew what was happening he
was badly injured DR.. Wade was
called and he dressed the injured
member at once and Kay was then
removed to his home. The injured

SUNNYSIDE WANTS In.
Bnt she Will not Join With any Other
suburb to form an Independent Town
Very Little Opposition Among the
Citizens

A prominent citizen of Sunnyside
has been interviewed by this paper on
the attitude of that suburb toward in
corporation It was found that a
majority of the citizens Of that place
would come into the Incorporation
were the chance to offer. They want
Incorporation but they will not go
in with any of the schemes which are
now being suggested as to the forma-
ton of various independent incorpora-
tions out of the suburbs lying to the
north of us. They see the advantage
of having municipal government but
don't want to have the drawbacks
which the new towns will have to
contend with.
When asked if there would not be
considerable opposition he stated that
he did not know of more than one
man of all the voters Of that town who
would vote against proposition to
come in should it be presented to them.
The citizens have been discussing the
matter and all they need now is
chance to come in. Their interests are
the same as ours and the town would
be helped immensely by the addition.
Morgantown will never prosper as she
should until all the various towns
around are united in single town
and we get the benefit of the popula-
ton which they have. However, the
arguments are too well known to need
repetition and we will not give them.
Suffice to say that before very long
the towns will be united.
