to see the old fighting Ninth leave the
Democratic column, if only for brief
time. Hill and Coler were praised by all
for their gallant fight in the Empire State.
though they cid not actually win the
places they sought. It was the general
opinion that the result of their lght was
most remarkable one. in that they pulled
down the Republican majority from over
100 600 to something less than 10000. The
fight was called a game and manly one
by all. and politicians said 1t would be
well to watch the future course of these
two men.

popular all over the district. and then
again the nomination should be given to

South Morgantown is about to bios.

will see lots OF building in the city
and SO far South Morgantown has not
attracted much attention. However
much of the building to be done will
be located in this part of town. Al
ready it has started and il will in
crease as the weeks go by.
Several heavy realty deals have ia
ken place over there and more are
pending. A syndicate is trying to
get hold of enough property on which
to start a big brewery. They have
about agreed on everything The
land in question belongs to Bert La
zier, Henry Domain and Emil Shult2
and lies along the railroad south OF
Col. Fairchilds.
The parties after the property are
not talking much but it is understood
that brewery is to be built some
time during the summer If they can
secure the land wanted One other
attempt has already been made To get
land for this purpose in South Nor
gantown and the Harry Williams
property was bought for it but the
plat was not big enough.
The details Of the pant are hard TIC
get. The brewery will be a big one.
That is about all that can be told
about it
Huston & Domain are getting ready
to move their ware rooms and offices
from Spruce street to South Morgan
town. They will build three story
brick with basement near the rail-
road The building will cost ten
thousand dollars.
w. ii. Bailey is going TO build big
frame ware house which will be three
stories high. 1t will not cost so much
money but will be fine addition to
business hoses in South Morgantown.
A large number of residences are al
ready in course of erection over there
and are projected The present sea-
son will he the busiest in the building
line that part of town has ever seen.
The paving which has been started
will all be finished and when it is
done that part Of town will be even
more desirable as place in which to
live than it is at present.

IRON CITY HEARING.
Judge Mason Listens to Argu-
ments on Wednesday.

w. y. Meredith, C. A. Goodwin, Frank
Cox and George C. Sturgiss address
the C0urt-Decision Reseryed-Pres-
ent Conditions Somewhat Simplified.
The hearing before Judge Mason
Thursday morning of the injunction
and receiver suit between James G.
Frazer and others against David S.
Brewer and others, better known as
the Iron City suit, attracted consid
cradle of an audience to the court
house. The hearing was upon the
motion of the defendants to dissolve
the Injunction and discharge the re
ceiver appointed on March 18th of
this year.
w S. Meredith, of Fairmont,
made the leading argument in sup
port of this motion, but G. A. Good
win also addressed the court on the
motion. 1t was resisted in argument
by Frank Cox and George c. Stur.
giss. Judge Mason took the papers
and all records in the hands of the
receiver aud will enter an order OF
some kind in few days.
The question at issue seems to
have sitted itself out of the charges
and counter charges made in the
pleadings. 1t is, shall the issue Of
stock by directors after the sale of
their old stock to Mr. Frazer be con-
sidered valid stock? If Judge Ma
son should hold it invalid the end of
the Iron City company would proba
bly, be only matter of time. 9th
erwise the parties who got the old
stock will be left holding the bag
If Judge Mason refuses to dissolve
the Injunction and discharge the re-
ceiver the property of the company
will be IN the receivers hands indefi-
nitely, as the litigation gives prom
Use of being q long one.
In the meantime Edgar B. Stew
art, the special receiver, is getting
the affairs of the company in as
good shape as possible under the
narrow authority he has. If he is
continued as special receiver it is
his intention to conduct the business
on the very best basis possible until

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, March 26--
Secretary treasurer w. b. Wilson OF
the United Mine Workers of America,
returned TO national headquarters here
today from the east, where he attend
ed two conventions of miners. Mr..
Wilson discussed the situation la the
coal fields of Virginia and West Vir-
ginia and gave out the statement that
in all probability, strike involving
IS, 900 miners will be called III those
states within short time. A final
effort will be made at once by the of
ticals of the national organization TO
secure conference with the mine
owners and operators, looking to the
adoption OF uniform wage scale and
recognition of the uuion, and In the
event the request for a conference Is
refused, as II is expected 1t will be,
the men will probably be called out
without further delay.
Mr.. Wilson said formal demand
will be made on the operators for
conference and II refused . strike will
be called.
THAT | cannot answer he ans
wered ''Of course we have decided
definitely on the steps to be taken but
the time Of calling the strike will not
be given out until the strike shall be
actually called For obvious reasons
this must be done, that the operators
may take NO advantage of the situa-
ton In knowing when the blow will
fall. Ii we go into this strike we ex-
pect TO win We have been expecting
Il to come for years. We are well
prepared for struggle and will take
no chances y
Mr.. Wilson fully expects strike
and it is understood that prepare
tions are now on in consequence of
this view.
Said Mr.. Wilson,
81 do not expect the operators will
accept our demand for conference
They have so persistently refused cur
demands in the past, that II seems
that nothing but strike will settle
the matter. IL Is my opinion that
the strike will come. "
QUIET IN FAIRMoNT REGION,

above:
"A report was sent broadcast from
Charleston and indianapolis 10 the eff
feet that the miners in Virginia and
West Virginia, to the number of 49,
900 would likely come out on a strike.
The article should not apply 10

statement alludes to both the Virgin
las as an entirety. The miners of
Southern West Virginia have had
some difficulties during the past year.
notably along the N. 4 w. railroad,
But the miners Of the Fairmont and
other regions la this end of the state
have been busily at work, earning
good wages and avoiding labor trou-
bles.
A thorough investigation of the
situation reveals the facts contained
IN the above paragraph. The miners
OF the Fairmontregion are prosperous
they are contented; they are working
almost every day and have no conten-
lions with their employers. 1t is not
fair to the miners OF this region to in
clude them in the sweeping assertions
published yesterday, that they are
about to strike. They very naturally
object TO it,
