AS Anderson can't have a street car
line, we suggest that some entcrprisng
citizen or corporation put on an
Automobile line. We are inclined to
believe that they are about rs good as
the street car, and have the advantage
OF the street car, rs they have no GER
tain direction to go. They can take
on passengers Mt the depot or anywhere
else and carry them to any part of the
city they wish to go. And line could
be established between Anderson,
Williamson, Pelzcr, Piedmont and
Grecnville. and wo believe it could be
made paying enterprise.

the fourth at Point Pleasant.
Mr.. McGraw stated to the commit
tee that Chairman Edminston found
it impossible to attend to the duies of
his position by reason of his isolation
from Charleston or any important
point in the State and by reason
Also of Professional Duties,
which required all this time. He ask
ed that the committee relieve him of
his duties, as Chairman. The matter
was postponed till tomorrow.
The committee adjourned till eight
o'clock this evening, when an execu-
tive session vas held.
Mr.. Handlan nominated Moundsville
as the place for holding the Congress
sional convention in the First district
but the friends of Clarksburg are too
numerous and consequently Mounds
vile lost it.

THE WAR AND THE GRIP.

Apropos to the grip epidemic raging
in England and the fun poked at her
on the ground that she is also losing
her grip, news comes to the effect
that the alarming prevalence and
deadly character of the grip epidemic is
actually due to the widespread .lepres-
sion of spirits prevailing in England
because of the English reverses in the
Boer war.
1.-THE medical faculty" says a on
don dispatch, "is convinced that the
extreme depression caused by the war
conduces to ~aggravate this epidemic"
And we are told: "Undertakers are
worked to death, the reserve of cas-
kets is almost exhausted and It is ex-
tremely difficult to get laborers to
supply the deficiency. Funerals are
SO numerous that the supply of black
horses has run out and the under
takers are using dark bays to the
great disgust of the mourners."
And the worst of it is the victims
are not confined to the ranks of the
lingo followers of Joe Chamberlain.
1t would seem from the medical vsew
of the case that the war is a two-eds ed
sword, and that both edges are cutting
at the vitality of Great Britain. Every
Boer bullet that hits the mark not
only lays low it's victim on the African
field, but by adding to the depression
in England, aids the deadly grip to lay
low another in the British CAPITA.

In his letter, published in our dis
patches yesterday, he protested against
the holding of pro-Boer mass-maet-
ings in the United States because at
such meetings the speakers are prone
to make "immoderate statements"
And in the very next line he, himGelf,
immoderately expresses his sympathy
with the British, and out-Herods Herod
by making the grossly immodeyate
statement that for the government of
the United States not to uphold the
British in their effort to crush the
Boer republics would be national dis
honor!"

Didn't he make himself sufficiently
ridiculous during the Spanish wal as
a member Of what Mr.. Dooley called

well issgood for twenty barrels a day,
and that the reports of it being more
or less is untrue. Chamberlain & Co.,
who own the we'll. have located an
other on the Fred Ault farm, south Of
the Milligan well, and are now work
ing on the derrick. This company has
about 1000 acres of territory. The
Fisher Oil Company and Jennings
Company, of Pittsburg, have located
wells on their territory. Hartman K
Co., of Washington, Pa. and the st.
Clairsville Oil Co. have also made To-
cations, making five wells that will
be put down in the neal future. 1t was
stated that Lehman & Co.. of Pitts
burg had also located a well. This
field now has four producing wells, one
on the Still farm and two on the Ore
farm. The second we'll on the Silt
farm, started in November. is down
900 feet and are still fishing for their
tools. The next thirty days will find
the 5000 acres leased by the different

New City Building.


The pans of Giesey & Faris, adopt
ed by Council for the new city build
ing, were not approved by a majority
of the members but by the vote of
every member of Council. This fully
shows that Council was in no way
biased in their opinion. One of Coun-
for a building that would not cost over
the amount voted or by the people,
$40, 900, while before them were plans
which would far ver reach this
amount. An evening paper, which has
but one reputation, says that the adop-
ton of the plans shows crookedness,
but as usual in its arguments gives no
cause for it's belief, unless it be that
Council failed to ask the Kicker's adj
vice. But every citizen. of the city
knows that the city has never made q
progressive move that this paper has
not found fault with it, and in place
of filling its columns with news, it pre-
fers to always find fault and condemn
all who wish to see the city grow and
improve. To illustrate it's weakness,
we will refer to the stand it took
against the new electric light com
pany, but when the new company
turned on its lights, it turned around
and highly complimented the COM
pany on the great improvement over
the old lights, and now it is claiming
that the old lights are much superior
Such is its consistency. No one who
is reasonable should expect a new
plant, with all machinery new, to OPP
crate without some trouble and also
while all is new, it is not expected that
all can be made perfection in twenty
four days. We would just remind
those who are kicking to remember
the number of lights off under the old
company, which had been in operation
for about ten years. We are glad to
say that when all is completed Bel
laire will have not only the best lights
but be a city lighted to meet all the
requirements of the citizens.

Man Under steps.

At about 1920 o'clock Wednesday
night Squire F. S. Mason. who lives
on Belmont street. near Twenty-sixth
street, was awakened by the screams
of a woman at his side door. Upon
raising the window he found his
daughter waiting below, she saying a
man was under the steps. Mr.. Mason
started down stairs but on his way
down the man crawled out and fed
down the, street. The daughter, who is
Mrs. Ehas. Long, living about a
square from her fathers, had started
for her home on account of her baby
becoming sick, and as her husband
was at work she had a small boy ac-
company her. Just what the man was
after no one will ever know, but one
thing is certain, he was there for no
good.
