AN APPROPRIATION MADE

For Purchasing the Proposed Site
For the Wheeling Dam-Other Riv-
err Items.
From all indications it seems as if
the Wheeling dam will be the first of
the series of dams to be built by the
government on the upper Ohio, to be
started. The location of the proposed
dam will be at point about one mile
south of Bellaire. Yesterday Mr.. Al
bert G. Shaver, of Martins Ferry, one
of the owners of the land on the pro-
posed site, received an engineers chart
of the site. Accompanying it was a
letter from the War Department, stat
ing that $4,000 had been appropriated
by Congress for the necessary grounds.
The ground on which the Ohio end
of the dam will rest is owned by Mr..
Shaver and Miss l.. Maud Shaver. 1t
is a very valuable holding, as options
for coal have been taken and the high
price of $3.50 being paid per acre.
Of this shore line, to be bought UP by
the government, the map shows that
$50 feet of the river front tract neces-
sary is owned by Mr.. Shaver. The
site is also enhanced in value as it is
the most practicable location for tip
pie, after the development of the coal
land lying further inland.

more attention to Mr. Taylor than to
any other private individual. and not
allowing themselves to be deprived of
any of their legal rights nor to be
provoked into any unlawful imprud-
ence by anything that Mr.. Taylor may
do. The courts may be all that Mr..
Taylor says the are, but his opinion
on that point is of no more authority
than the opinion of any other man.
Whatever their character, the courts
are all that stand between us and
revolution, and there is no other tri-
bunal to which to appeal short of the
mob. Let the Democrats continue to
stick to the law, and if the mob is to
be appealed to, let it be by the other
side''
All of which is excellent advice. It
is encouraging to note that there is a
tendency to compromise in the inter-
ests of peace prior to final adjust
ment of the trouble and that a con-
flict between the forces of the admin
istration of Gov. Beckham and Tay-
lor's militia is unlikely. The Demo-
cratic leaders will not resort to force
until every other means is exhausted.
They will cheerfully abide by the de-
cision of the Court of Appeals and
Gov. Beckham will make no move to
GUST Taylor until that decision is rem
dered. After that, however, force may
be necessary since Taylor coolly de-
clares that if the Court of Appeals de-
cides his way he will abide by its de-
cision, but not otherwise.

BRIGHT OUTLOOK FOR
IRON CUT NAILS.
0u "
Continued from first Page.

again if they fail to interest their
merchants in the iron cut nail. In
this manner we have filed quite a
number of small orders.
,, $50 far as the comparative merits
of the iron and steel nail are concern
ed, there can be no question as to the
superiority of the former. I'll ven
ture the assertion that | can take a
broom on a shingle roof fastened five
years ago with steel wire nails, and
sweep off most of the singles. With
iron nails you would have to tear the
shingles loose. Take a fence made a
few years ago with wire nails, and
you will find boards and palings loose
and very apparent necessity for the
attention of a man with hammer
and fresh supply of nails. There is
some work for which the wire nail is
better adapted, but upon any work
which is exposed it is very much in
ferior to the iron nail | look for
continuation of the steadily increasing
demand for iron cut nails, and | ex-
pect to see many of the idle machines
in this section of the Ohio Valley at
work again within the next few
years"
Trade Improving.
The Wheeling iron and steel mills
are already profting by the dissatis-
faction over the steel wire nail.
At the LaBelle factory there are
about so nail machines in operation,
and about 20 are working on orders
for iron cut nails. The trade here, as
elsewhere, is reported to be better
than for many years past. The La
Belle company has 313 nail machines,
including the Steubenville plant. The
LaBelle has RACED it's pudding fur
naces, and is now compelled to buy it's
iron nail plate
The Belmont factory of the Wheel
ing Iron and Steel Company, is enjoy
ing the best run it has had in recent
years. 1t has been the custom here
tofore to run the nail machines until
the warehouses were stocked up, and
then close down the factory. Previous
to the last week or ten days, however,
the factory was running night and
day upon orders. Yesterday forty OF
the fifty-seven nail machines in the
factory were running, and the state
ment was made to Register reporter
that the remaining machines may be
started within few days. The COM
pany has a number of large orders to
fill. Many of the Belmont machines
have been removed to make a place
for new departments in the mill, but
the Wheeling Iron and Steel Company
also has nail mills at it's Top mill and
Benwood plants.
The upper mill at the Laughlin, in
Martins Ferry, which has been idle
for about three years, will be placed
in operation next Monday. There are
about 100 machines in this depart
ment. The entire Laughlin plant is
the largest nail factory in the world.
1t is understood that the company has
placed an order with the Wheeling
Iron and Steel Company for 1000 bill
let's. 1t could not be learned yester-
day whether any iron nails will be
cut at the Laughlin plant. 1t is ru-
mored that pudding furnaces are to
be erected.
The old Riverside nail factor on the
South Side, containing over 200 ma
chimes, and at one time the largest in
the world, has not been operated in
years.

LENTEN SERMON
At St. Joseph's Cathedral by Father
Ross, of COshocton.

The regular Wednesday night SER
vices at st. Joseph's Cathedral were
attended by a congregation which
crowded the church. The sermon was
preached by the Rev. Walter Ross, of
Coshoeton, o. Father Ross was form
erly an Episcopal clergyman and
some years ago was stationed at Mingo
Junction, Ohio. He is very earnest
and interesting pulpit orator.
Father Ross theme last night was
The Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin
Mary" He was listened to with I'M
divided attention throughout his dis
course. The services closed with the
Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament.
