LOCAL WOREMGNEN
GREATLY Interested
IN TWO PENDING MATTERS WHICH
INVOLVE THOUSANDS IN THIS
CITY AND VICINITY.
THE AMALGAKATED DEMAND
Is NATURALLY THE MOST IMP0R-
TANr PENDING SUBJECT,
The Stosic Makers Obtain the De-
scired Advance I'm Wages, and Are
Consequently HaPpy-A General
Review of the Local, West Virginia
and NeiGhborhood Situation.

Wheeling workingmen in two lines
are greatly and naturally interested in
pending demands. one. by the Amalga-
mated membership. for full recognition
OF the organization; and the other, the
stogie makers, for an advance in wages
both matters having been fully set
forth in the daily chronicle Of the
news.
As TO the stogie makers, their re-
quest for more money per thousand
has been aeceded to. but in all
save one instance, under protest
by their employers. who fear the eff
fects upon trade. and predict falling
of in the demand for the Wheeling pro-
duet.
AS to the threatened strike of eighty
thousand members OF the Amalgamat-
ed Association, it is yet too early TO say
what will happen, although in weli-in-
formed circles on both sides of the p-o
position there is a feeling that the dif-
ferences will DE adjusted within reas-
enable space OF time and that a general
saul down will thus be averted. Mr..
Morgan is reported to be favorable
10 a settlement upon terms salts
factory to the employees. This
solution of the problem is earnestly
hoped for. but it is reasonable to sup
pose that the high officials and leading
spirits of the United States Steel Com
pany and its affiliating branches will
take time to consider A strike of that
nature would. as a matter of course,
very seriously affect Wheeling and its
immediate vicinity, and would throw
thousands of employees out of work for
possibly a long period.
1t appears reasonable, however, to ex-
pect a satisfactory solution by the mid
die of the month.

To the Editor OF the Register.
SIR wish to make kick against
"a soulless corporation, the Natural
Gas Company Of West Virginia, for its
arbitrary charge of one dollar per
month meter rent, when a consumer
uses less than that amount. 1T Is the
same old story, the man OF money (the
rich mani pays no more than he always
did. He has plenty of servants and has
his washing and ironing done at home.
He also has his baking which consumes
considerable gas His gas bill has not
been increased one cent; no, 1t would
not do he might kick; but how about
the small consumer OF gas, light house
keeping, etc, and they are majority by
a long ways. They cannot afford to
keep servants to wash, iron and bake,
but they have it done by parties that
use natural gas furnished by the afore-
said soulless corporations, the Natural
Gas Company of West Virginia, and
why should they be compelled to pay for
what they don't get, and why should
this company extort from the llght
house keepers? Why don't they in
crease the price Of gas to all alike. both
rich and poor? Let everyone that feels
agrieved by this extortion speak out IN
meeting, and let us have an indignation
meeting and compel the aforesaid soul
less. corporation to equalize their chars,
es to everyone. What say you, small
consumers of natural gas in the city OF
Wheeling?

State in the Union. With our abund-
ance of gas and the cheapness of coal,
together with our central location in re-
gard to reaching the markets OF the
world the glass makers all over the
United States are turning their thoughts
towards the State. Just now our glass
factories are located at Morgantown,
Wheeling, Wellsburg, Moundsville,
Warrington, Fairmont, Clarksburg and
Central City, but within the next ten
years instead OF having factories in
eight towns, we shall have them in
eighty towns The day is not far dis
tant when the bank of the Little Ka-

plants because of the abundance of gas
and the great veins of coal that can be
mined and taken right into the factory
without the addition of any freight
charges. Several new glass plants are
in course of erection in the State, and
as many more from other States are al
ready figuring on moving here, so that
we can look for big boom in the glass
industry in West Virginia from this
time on. 1t won't be long before West
Virginia will stand first in the produc-
ton of coal and oil, the manufacture
of clay product and the manufacture OF
