A new TOWN.
It Will BE Built Near West
Point in CoIumbiana
County.

Lisbon, April 21.-A new project has
come to light in regard to the develop
ment of the coal field in and about West
Point. 1t is said that parties from
East Liverpool with representatives
of eastern concerns, have secured
leases on not less than $500 acres of
land in the vicinity of West Point, the
intention being to erect town there.
This is in the vicinity OF the richest
coal vein in eastern Ohio, and upon
which Representatives of the Bulti
more and Ohio company have secured
extensive leases.
The price of land in the vicinity of
West Point has advanced much dur,
ing the last ten days. some farmers
holding their land as high as 5000 an
acre. The railroad company will have
extensive coal yards at this point. the
ground for which has been staked off.
Along the hills of the route of the
road large coal veins can be found just
few feet above the survey. That
this coal was never bought before this
late day is something that is hard to
understand. Being continuation of
the Salineville coal belt the coal In
quality Is the best, and can be mined
cheaper than at Salineville, access to
the vein being gained with ease.

The Republican primaries of Carroll

Stark county. OF those proceedings
the Republican-Standa says:
The Stark county situation was can

so loud that it was wonder that the

methods pursued by the Stark county
politicians already secured sufficient
number of delegates to effect their nom

BRASS STOLEN.
TWO Trusted Employees OF c
Mansfield Concern Are
Arrested.

Mansfield, May 2l.--A sensation was
sprung here when Reuben Cole aged 81
and James f. McClane, aged AZ. trusted
employees of the Ohio Brass company
were arrested charged with stealing Il
barrel of brass and copper from the
company. The metal was valued at
500. Cole was nightwatchman and
McClane was yard foreman. 1t seems
that for Gome time the &C mpary has
been missing quantities of valuable
brass and copper. A detective named
Harris was brought from Chicago and
given job as man of all York. He got
Cn good terms with the two men, and
finally made a proposition with them to
carry away quantity of metal which
they were to have ready for him, and
divide the proceeds. The men agreed
and he drove to the works at s o'clock
in the evening. Cole was there ami
ready to assist in loading the barrel,
when he was placed under arrest. Nc.
Clane did not show up. Both men
were bound over to common pleas
court in the sum of 5000.

THE ROLL
TURNER'S
They Have Quit Work in
Youngstown.
SCALE IS NOT SIGNED
Talk Of Gigantic Organization n
Among Mon Employed in
Constituent Companies
of Morqan Combine,

Youngstown. May 21.-The roll turn
ers at the lower and the upper mills of
the American Steel Hoop company quit
work yesterday because the company
refuses to sign the scale presented by
the Roll Turner'S union.
The roll turner's. at the mills of the
Republic Iron and Steel company went
to WORK as usual. This company sign
ed the scale of the workers. and there
is no trouble at any of the mills.
The National Steel company has also
refused to sign the scale, but there are
only handful of workers employed at
the Ohio plant.
One of the most significant features
about this matter Is that the two COM
panies. which have refused to sign the
scale are the National Steel company
and the American Steel Hoop company,
two of the constituent companies of the
United States Steel corporation. or the
gigantic Morgan combine. If this is an
evidence of the future of the policy o.
the millionaire combine" toward or.
ganized labor, there is certain to be a
serious crisis at no far distant date.
LABOR COMBINED.
The Roll Turner'S union is affiliatded
and under the jurisdiction of the Feder-
alton of Labor, of which Samuel Comp
ers. Is the president. Gompers Is the
man, who has talked so much about
forming the men in the constituent
companies of the Morgan combine into
one gigantic labor organization. Presi-
dent Shaffer, of the Amalgamated as
sociation has also been mentioned in
connection with the movement. Under
| the existing conditions, the action of
the constituent companies, of the Unit
! ed States Steel corporation In future la
Dor negotiations is decidedly uncertain.
The Republic Iron and Steel company
the concern which signed the roll turn
ers' scale, is the big combine, which
was not absorbed by the United States
Steel corporation.
1t looks. therefore. to disinterested
person, that organized labor is to fare
better at the hands of the companies
not controlled by the Morgan combine
than by the companies which are di-
rected by the said Morgan combine.
The local roll turner's difficulty may
eventually resolve itself into another
McKeesport affair. The points at is.
sue consist of principle, just as they did
at McKeesport.
