The social at the Christian church
last Friday night was the most pro-
nounced success OF the season. 1t SEEM
ed as if practically everybody was out
and all had grand time. The tables
were arranged on the grounds outside
of the church and were handsomely
lighted up by n string of electric lights.
The affair was certainly perfectly arrang-
ed and was credit to the ladies who
planned it. One of the specially de-
lightful features was the concert by the
Lamar band. The church had just clos
ed a very successful revival and that
fact added to the general good feeling
prevailing.

LamarF Fair Assured .

There will be n county fair in Lamar
this fall, that fact caL at last be an
nounced for certainty. The date will
be decided later but will probably be
about the last of September or the first
OF October The matter has been kept
alive by few of our public spirited cit
izens, and yesterday IA location was Sc
cured, one OF the finest, by the way, in
the valley. The Foley and Cross tracts
OF land north of town in the timber have
been secured, making about forty acres
with natural opening on which a fine
race track can be made. Steps are be-
ing taken to incorporate the Fair Asso
citation with capital stock Of $4,000,
and the committee will soon be around
asking subscriptions to the stock
About 5000 will be needed the first
year to put the fair on its feet and the
aim will be to manage it on as economi-
cal plan as possible the first yerr 80 as
to build up permanent institution
There is no question but what success
full county far will be not only great
benefit to the citizens OF Lamar and the
county, but also one of the greatest
pleasure to all. The committee will
soon be around seeking subscrip-
tlons to the capital stock and will de-
serve, and we feel sure will receive the
hearty encouragement and help of every
business man and farmer of this section.
Let everybody take an interest and help
push 1t along and successful and profit
able fair is assured.

Thousands Of Acres in the Hooking and
Sunday Greek Valleys OptiOnGd.

| igan; vice president of the T. q
c. and president of the Wellston 4
jackson Belt railway.
1t is an undisputed fact that Morgan
and Company hold the controlling in
| terest in the roads of which Mr.. Mon
sarrat is at the head. Possibly tn,
greatest revenue derived by these rail
roads is from the coal trade. To in
crease the value of the securities of tn,
H. v. Railroad, T. & o. c. railroad ant
the X, & NJ. railroad, is said to be one
of the principal reasons why the mines
have been purchased by Morgan.
The deal will not only tend to ac
complish this for Morgan securit.
holders, but it will prevent the cutting
of railroad rates to the lakes. where
the coal is shipped to the northwest
'rhe coal is shipped to this territory
by the way is big item to miners and
operators.
The lake trade opens in April
Thousands and thousands of tons ara
sent from the Hooking Valley and from
the Sunday Creek. The operator who
bids the lowest gets the contracts. If
Morgan and Company take up the op-
tions, the cutting of coal prices for this
vicinity will also be a transaction
of the past.
The only competition in this district
that Morgan will have possibly in sup
plying this trade is from the operators
who refuse to sell. They are said to
be very few indeed, of the 80 mines in
the two valleys.
Just how much money is involved in
the deal is conjectural. 1t is estimat-
ed at between $7,000OO0 and 10000
coo. The other day Mr.. Winder, acting
for Morgan succeeded in taking up op
tions on IL coke and coal mining COM
panies in the Kanawha valley. 1t was
announced that the new combination
would be known as the Kanawha and
Hooking Coal and Coke Company. 1t
will be incorporated for $7,000000. II
combined with the property optioned
in the Hooking Valley and Sunday
creek the capitalization will undoubt
edly be close to $4,000, 900.
Morgan has had constructed at Mel
sonville washer that is considered
among the largest in the world. This
washer is on an indirect line of the
X. and MT. and o. C. road and on
direct line of the Hooking Valley road.
1t was built to wash the bituminous
or fine particles. When the plans for
the washer were announced the min
ers and operators wondered what Nor
gan was going to do with such a large
washer. If the combination is success
fully carried out it will be just about
the proper size.
This washer, it is said, will make
the coal better quality and cleaner
to handle and burn and for this class
of fuel little more may be charged.
Inasmuch as Messrs. Morton. Mon
sarrat and Winder are out of the city,
possibly in New York. it is supposed
by some that they are in conference
with Morgan and company, and that
the final offers to the operators will
be arranged.
If the prices are too high for Nor
gan and company and the operators re-
fuse to take less then the deal will fall
through, for the present at least. 1t
has gone so far, however. that this
seems to be almost an utter impossi-
bility.

Special to the teadef.

special TO tne Leauef!
Columbus. o., June HIP. Nor
gan q Co.. o. New ork, through thei
representatives have secured options
on at least majority of the mines il
the Hooking and Sunday Creek valleys
The above announcement to those
interested in coal mining properties ir
various parts of the country, will moi
be received wi. such great surprise
as it has been freely predicted that the
great financiers would eventually ac-
complish this mammoth undertaking
before they had definitely decided they
had all the coal property in the two
valleys worth owning.
At the time that Morgan purchased
the Buckeye coal company, with its
capacity of 1000 tons of bituminous
coal day it was rumored and at the
time printeu in Columbus paper,
that the purchase was the beginning
of a great combination.
After purchasing the Buckeye, the
Sunday Greek Coal Company with a
daily capacity of 5000 tons, was the
next to be taken in. A month or two
ago the Franklin Fuel Company was
pu chased. This placed Morgan & Co.
in possession of three of the most val
liable pieces of property. The three
combined alone are considered a for
midable foe for the Independent ope-
rators.
The inspectors of Morgan have visit
ed every mine in the two valleys re-
ferred to within the past year, to as
certain it's capacity, facilities and pos
sibilities. The reports of these inspec-
tors were sent to New York and after
a conference in which a number of To-
cal people took part, representative
was instructed to option the properties
desired.
The options were turned over to Mr..
]. S. Morton, president of the Sunday
Creek Coal company. some of the
operators refused to state a price or
agree toan option on their mines. Af-
ter the options had been secured the
firm of Morgan & Co. called mee1-
ing the Hooking and Sunday Creek
operators. The meeting took place
last Friday and Saturday.
Each of the operators were interro-
gated regarding their property and 1t
is said to state their lowest sale hg-
ures. The meeung adjourned late sat
urday. rhe operators in this vicinity
commenced to arrive home Monday.
Some Of them did not get home until
today.
Before adjournment every man in
atten4ance was sworn to maintain the
utmost secrecy. For this reason there
are a great many facts that might be
stated that will necessarily have to be
omitted on this account. Despite the
fact that the operators were obligated
a little talk with a few Of them elected
the above facts and those to follow.
Inc injecting was NV hh''i'
will be held before July /, when the
options on the properties expire. These
options are in the hands of Mr.. Nor
ton but he absolutely refused to talk,
He left the city Wednesday and it is
presumed he went to New York. MIR.
