USE PETROLEUM FOR guEL.
Charleston Manufacturers Substitute
Oil for Coal

Oil for Coal.
Charleston. S. c., August ll.-The
Guffy Bond Petroleum Company has
erected storage tank acre which has
a capacity OF $4,000 barrels of fuel oil
Pipes connecting the tank with the
West Shore Terminal railroaH pier
have been laid, and the first supply
of oil is now due.
Many of the manufacturing con
Germs in this section are considering
the advisability of substituting oil for
coal, and this fuel may be used eXcu-
sively in the Consolidated railways
power house. 1t is said nere that the
Southern railway and the Atlantic
Coast Line have studied the oil sit
uation with a view of using 1t on loco
motives, although there is no intima-
tion that an early change win be
made.
Propositions nave been submitted to
the fertilizer factories in Charleston
to use oil instead of coal but nothing
could be done heretofore. as the oil
was not available With the establish
ment OF storage tanks. however it is
possible that the subject will get
prompt consideration.

These figures represent the net in

ed by Receiver of Tax Returns J. e.
Dubberly
This is certainly n splendid showing
for the city Of Brunswick in particular
and the people of the county in gener-
al and should put the chronic kicker
out of business
This report should be especially
gratifying TO the people of tais city
when it is considered that some of the
largest counties in the state have
turned up at the Office of the Comp
troller General with palpable de-
creasos in taxable values
The figures in comparative form are
as follows:
For 1902 ,$4,34e,39o
For 1901 3,975,255
Net increase for 1902 IS 374,135
Considering the fact that this in
crease cannot be attributed to any
particular boom, but is the outcome of
steady, gradual growth, this is most
certainly a magnificent record and
splendid evidence Of the fact that this
community is in a very prosperous
condition.
1t must also be remembered that
these figures do not include the inn
proyements of the b. & b. railroad, as
these returns are made uirect to the
comptroller
In this connection it may be Of in

grafuiafions.

Republican leaders have been showered
with congratulations the last few days upon
the establishment of a basis of harmonious
action in the coming campaign. Since the
publication of the Globe-D Democrat Sunday
morning of this fact many letters and tele-
grams have been received, both by National
Committeeman Kerens and State Chairman
Atkins, expressing satisfaction with the agree
ment and predicting II sweeping Republican
victory AS the result. Amid the general re-
joicing throughout the state there has not
been one discordant note, for if there is any
thing the $4,000 Missouri Republicans have
longed for is peace between the leaders and
a united party.
The basis of the agreement reached,
after repeated conferences in this city last
week, is said to provide for the reelection of
Thomas j. Atkins as state choirman without
opposition. Former State Senator Howard

ing Mr.. Kerens. a letter from Postmaster
Joseph III. Harris. of Kansas City, who was
also expected to be present, was shown by
Messrs Roberts and Durham, giving them
authority to act in his stead. The first
conference was held last Friday mourning,
ajourning for lunch and to enable the con-
fcrecs to consult with their principals. Al
though Mr.. Atkins left for Wright county
ut = O'Clock that afternoon. he is said to
have been cogn liant of the proceedings up
to that hour, and to have given his repre-
sentatives full power to act for him. The
proceedings of both morning and afternoon
conferences were taken down in shorthand.
One of the results of the conference was
the announcement by Il. 4. Rozier of his
retirement from the race for state chairman,
thus giving Mr.. Atkins II clear field.
An interesting phase of the situation all
along has been the desire expressed by Presi-
dent Roosevelt for united party in this state
To this, more than anything else, is attribute
ed the beginning of negotiations which re-
suited in the desired action last week.
