The proper committee of the West
Virginia Editorial Association having
decided TO hold the next meeting OF
the Association In this place, the rep
resentatives of the local papers, met
in the Index Office to make some ar
rangements TO properly entertain the
distinguished visitors. The meeting
on Thursday was devoted more to the
general discussion of what should be
done than to arrange details. Col.
@. l.. Smith was made president OF
the local association, Mr.. j. T. Powell
secretary, and Mr.. III. @. Sample,
treasurer. A committee OF arrange
ments, consisting OF newspaper men
as we'll as prominent citizens was Sc
lected to have charge OF the arrange
ments, 10 connection with the local
members OF the press. The commit
tee IS composed of Messrs. O. S. Nc

ter Barnes, Sam Il. Nuzum and e. A.

tation was appointed, consisting Of

Ed. e, Meredith, Odell P. Mckinney,
and Earl II. Smith, to which num-
Der OF ladies will be added later.
The coming OF this association Is
an event that our city should not lose
sight Of.
The reputation of our town Is at
stake. It's hospitality is known over
the State and any letting down at
this time would be serious mistake.
While nothing so far has been ar
ranged for the entertainment Of the
visitors yet banquet will be held,
some trips about this section and an
afternoon at Warrington, where the
pencil showers will have an opportu-
nifty Of witnessing the wonderful oil
and other resources Of the Oil City.
The newspaper men OF Warrington,
are wide awake fellows and are anx.
lous TO have the Association visit
their town and we are sure that the
members will be properly treated
should they 80 up there.
Every one will agree that the
Association must be properly enter
tanned, to do this it will take money.
There are not enough newspaper men
in town to bear alone the expense and
our liberal citizens will be called upon
| for assistance. AS this matter Is one
OF great importance to the city, we
are sure that this appeal will meet
with hearty response. Every citi-
zen should interest himself and see TO
1t that our town is shown TO its best
| advantage.
