THE Beers have given England

WEST VIRGINIA'S GREAT
EST INDUSTRY.
Remarkable Showing From In

Remarkable Showing From In-
spectOr PauPs Report.
Inspector Paul has just finished
his report of the coal and coke in
dustry of the state for the year end
ing June 30, 1899, and there is
gratifying increase in the produo-
ton in each GLASS. West Virginia
is now second in coke, and is likely
soon to pass Ohio in coal, and be-
come second only to Pennsylvania.
A summary of his report stutes:
an point of production of coal
and coke, men employed, days
worked and general activity of the
mining industry of the state, the
year closed exceeds all past periods
of the same length. Quietly, but
surely and safely the state contin-
ues to grow in the production of
coal and coke. Occupying the SEQ
ond place as coke producer in the
United States and following third
in coal production, with less than
100000 tons to gain to occupy a
place second only to the state of
Pennsylvania, it is safe prediction
to venture the assertion that in less
than three years the state will be
the second coal producing state in
the United States.
For the year ending June Both,
the state produced 1921, 062 tons
of coal of 2,24O pounds each, and
1,968,868 tons of coke, 2,OOOpounds
each.
"For the calendar year 1899 the
present condition warrants the
statement that the production of
coal will be 100000 and of coke
2,25O,OOO tons.
During the past year there were
employed at the mines and coke
ovens 24,737 men, as an increase
over last year of 1885 men. The
number of days worked was 240 an
increase over last year of sixteen
days.

81 do not see any necessity for
additional legislation on the trust
question" says Congressman Gros-
venor of Ohio. Mr.. Grosvenor is
the Presidents mouthpiece in the
House. He voices the wishes of
both Hanna and Mckinley in the
most official way. OF course he
cannot see any necessity for addi-
tionaI legislation against trusts.
The trusts have done too much for
Grosyenor's party. To interfere
with their schemes of plumber
would be gross ingratitude. So
long as the Mckinley Hanna
crowd are in power at Washington,
the trusts are as safe from federal
molestation as the tropics are from
Dakota billiards..
The Republican party seems to
be very much harmonized on their
next ticket-MoKinley and Root.
1t is consistent with McKinley's
policy as he has been aiming to
take root ever since his election.
Whether the root taken will hold
the tree from falling depends upon
the storm of 1900 Too much
harmony in the party in advance
may be the cause of not being pre-
pared to stand the storm when it
comes. A regular "nor'wester" is
forming.

hard for us to understand how any

can teach such stuff when the very
paper that it is printed on costs
them 40 per cent. more than it did
three years ago. All their station

of it over 100 per cent. The sub
