While Clarksburg is rapidly forging to the
front with it. new buildings and new enterprises,
perhaps very few people realize the benefits being
derived, both at present and for the future, from
an enterprise which has quietly and without pa
rade invested over one hundred thouse nd dollars
in our midst.
The West Fork Oil & Natural Gas Co., purely
a home company. has laid its net work of pipes
all over our city, and the good effects of cheaper
gas are already being felt by our city.
The first thing done by the company was to
make the price of fuel to It's ctzens from - to 30
per cent less thar the old rates
Second, Through its liberal policy This com.
PAW secured the location of the Republic Glass
Factory at Barnes property, paying $1,000 per
acre and giving it the factory to induce them TO
locate also making an extremely low rate for gas
This is and will be of the largest factories of
its kind in the country. The effects of its pay roll
will be to put dollars in the pockets of our mer
chants and give employment to hundreds of people.
The home company expects to give service that
will be unexcelled, Its wells are close to the C ty.
Its system of feeders is such as to insure safe
supply Their 4th we'll is now drilling on the
LYDIA Stealey farm. quarter of mile from the
city limits. About $4,000 has been expended liz
drilling wells and other wells will be drilled from
time To time
While we hope the investment may prove profit
able the dangers to an independent company are
many bat where they receive the support of their
home people, they have proven great aid in
building up town.
Warrington can be cited as town supporting
a home gas company, while the power of the Stan

rectly all the gas plants of the country. are trying

The News still holds to that old democratic
theory that the office holder has his Office for the
express purpose of making money, and that there
is no other possible way on earth to accumulate
little of this worlds goods. That is what the dem
ocratic Office holders used to think about it and
that is what some of them, who are trying to break
into Office think about it today. Did it never &C.
cur to the purple pencil, tEatits purple pencil
lord never made sll his fortune by virtue of an of
fee he held? Moreover, man that has brains,
energy and enterprise, has grand opportunity to
make money in strictly legitimate methods these
glorious days of prosperity and does not have to re-
sort to the despicable flchng from the people
their honest dues, as of yore, when the democrats
we're in power and pursued the very course the
News thinks all office holders employ. The News
believes not in prosperity and raises howl against
those who prosper The idea it has is TO Cypress

activity.

democratic party, always howls about the party in

The democratic purpose of carrying elections
by fraud this year cannot be hidden under the
howls and accusations they are making against :he
republican party They made steals in all their
past in this state and they have experienced no
change of heart on that score 1T any one need be
ON their guard this year it is the republicans, and
above all they should that no purple pencil is
used this year.
Business men in the democratic party in Har
Tison county say they are satisfied with comm ercia
conditions and will vote for Mckinley, believing
his election is necessary to their continuance The
still vote will be for the republican party. Men
have their thinking caps on this year They know
what has happened and they do not propose 10
jeopardize the future with an experiment.
The upstreet yelper is sore or the oca! obi
tor of the Telegram. Why? That's plain The,
purple pencil thought it could dash of as many
fabricatons, prevarications and ISLANDERS as it
pleased. without having the turn called on it, but
the Telegram deemed it fair and honest to expose
a few of the rantings of the McGraw sheet, and
then the purple pencil fell Ia abusing the local
editor. He's ready at any time to compare his
popularity as newspaper man with his abuser.
Signed or other statements by S,eaey Quinn
William Swiger or any one else that the present
sheriff of this county or his deputies ever shaved
an order on the sheriff downright lies, as Sher-
iff Lang says in an article in another column. All
the public records substantate our assertion and
the public is invited to examine them for them
selves. No such order was ever issued on the
sheriff or shaved by him or his deputies, and the
News and ITS special writers lie again.
