The hats for horses-this ear are
not as numerous as they were last

chased a hook and ladder outfit

this may be what is holding them
back.

new ENTERPRISE.
$50, 900 Monongahela River Stone
Company Organized.
Will Build Factory at Randall. l..
Edmund the Principal Stakeholder
Much Local Capital Interested.

A new stone company has just
been organized at Morgantown for
the manufacture of artificial build
ing stone 1t is capitalized at $780,
900, and will oegin work right away.
Mr.. G. L. Edmund of Clarksburg
is the promoter and principal stock
holder in the enterprise. He is also
the inventor or discoverer of the
process of manufacture. Sand and
the best Portland cement are the
principal ingredients of manufac-
ture.
The factory will be located at
Randall on the Monongahela river,
and the B. Il O. Railroad. 1t will
start with six or eight hands, and
the number will be increased to 30
or 30 as the business grows.
Mr.. Edmund states that the de-
mand for artificial stone and cement
goods Of all kinds is constantly in
creasing all over the country. BY
recent discoveries in the process of
manufacture, it is made so near like
natural stone in appearance that it
is growing IN favor of builders all
the time, and taking the place of the
natural product. Its durability has
long been known to be equal to
high quality stone, and the cost is
much less.
Mr., Edmund is the sole owner of
the secret process of manufacture,
which he values at Sc, 900. This will
be transferred to the Monongahela
River Company. He owns small
factory at Clarksburg nov, and finds
the business very profitable. The
new public school building and the
residence of Mr.. /. G. Lazzelle in
South Park were built by Mr. Ed
mund.
/ The incorporators OF the new com
pany are G. T.. Edm1nd, S M. Prince,
j. L. Hatfield, E. G. Donley aud G.
Barrickman. A paid up capital Of
$12, 1000 has been subscribed.

Within five years West Morgan
town will be as large as Morgantown
proper is now This remark was
made by E. NJ. Graft in his office
Wednesday to New DOMINION
man. He was asked to tell what
made him think that this statement
was true and gave the following
reasons:
'sThe Union Utility company will
make 1t so. The company has as
surances that with in one year there
will be two steam railroads in opera
tion on that side of the river besides
the trolley line which is to be built
from Morgantown."
in two weeks work of copstruc-
ton will start on the trolley and one
of the steam roads. One thousand
men will be employed on the latter.
1t is to run from Morgantown to a
connection with the Wabash at or
near Mooresville. II will be com
pleted and in operation thin one
year. .
"We had a, talk with sir. Patter-
son of the Wabash He informed
US that the Wabash would pass with
in fifteen miles OF Morgantown with
its main line. A branch was intend
ed to be built to Morgantown and
orders have been issued tor the sur
vey.9
This they expected to get done
within year and half This was
not fast enough for US and we asked
him about traffic arrangements for
road to be built from here by local
people. He told US that traffic ar
engagements would be made with us
and every advantage given us. The
Wabash would rather we built the
road ourselves il we are in. hurry
for it. SO the decision was made.'
"The road has been surveyed and
most of the right of way has been
secured We have not finally de
cided on some parts of the route and
may go into one of several direc-
tions. The road is to be an extern
sion of the NJ. d X. A bridge will
span the river here to connect with
the road now built"
GAS for the trolley road itself,
work is to be started on it imme-
diately and it will be sent through
as fast as it can be laid. We also

INSPECTED POST OFFICE.
Edward /. Allen Came Here for
that Purpose.

Every thing Found in Apple Pie Order
Uncle Sam Owes Money to Posi-
Master Changes and Improvements
to be Made in the Local Office other
Gossip.
Postoffice Inspector Ed. /. Allen
has been here to investigate condi-
tions in the local postofiice. He
found everything to be in fine condi-
ton. The books showed a small
balance due to the office from Uncle
Sam.
These visits Of inspection are made
without notice, but at all times Nor
gantown has come to the test with
flying colors.
Some changes and improvements
are contemplated in the office. The
present quarters have become too
cramped for tue business which is
now being transacted and the room
will be enlarged.
1t will be extended back to take
in the rooms in the rear Of the of
flee. New cases and desks will be
added so that the force can work to
better advantage than at present.
The lease on the building expired
July first, and new lease will have
to be made. 1t is very likely that
much more rent will have 20 be paid
than was given by the government
when the building was first erected.

pointed as a sub clerk. She has en-

There is vacancy in the position
Of sub carrier but none of those who
are eligible are at all anxious to
have the place which affords only
about two months steady work DUR
ing the year. At other times when
carriers are sick or off for any reason
the sub has to take their route and
as he is only paid for the time ac-
tually at work the compensation is
now very large for the year.
Nothing further has been heard
from Mr. A. B. Smith who is to es-
tablish more rural routes in the
country. He will be here some time
this summer it is thought and get
them started before fall. The entire
coantyis expected to be covered by
these routes.

In the other he says that under GER

to tell which time he wanted to be

that he has yearning to show the

COURT CLOSES ROAD.
Model Road will be Free From Inter.
Reconsideration road Opened.

The County Court Tuesday after
noon ordered the road on the West
Side which is telng macadamized by
the government experts closed until
the work has been completed.
The road has been closed several
times with gates to allow the work to
go on without interference. A few
people who habitually knock against
improvements and who have about as
much public spirit, foresight and
horse sense as Guinea niger have
repeatedly torn the gates down and
driven over the road much to the in
convenience Of the workmen. Now
the county court has closed the road,
and the first man who breaks down a
gate and drives through, will get into
all kinds OF trouble.
The Breakiron road was ordered
opened on the West Side, in Grant
district. This was about all that was
done by the court, except some routine
business.

HORRIBLE OUTRAGE.
How Story of a Lynching Got Start
ed Bluefleld Man is a Winner.

The Cumberland and Parkersburg
liars are out classed. The man from
Blueficld has them skinned He did
it by skiuning a negro. He told OF
the outraging Of a white girl by a
negro who was caught after several
days of this practice and skinned by
his captors. The name of the negro
and af the victim to his lust were
omitted. Nothing OF the kind has
happened but it made mighty
good story.
The story will go all over the
United States and West Virginia
will get another black eye. The
man who started it should have the
grace to be ashamed of himself but
it is not at all probable that he will
do so.

The School Board met Tuesday
and sold the 500, 900 school bonds to
w. r. Todd and Company, bankers OF
Cincinatti. They are the people who
bought the last issue Of municipal
bonds. The paid premium of $500,
with accrued interest.
There was another bid better than
this, a premium of $3.50, but it was
withdrawn and the bid of the Todd
company was the best. The matter
will be closed up at once and the pro-
ceeds will be applied Immediately to
the purpose for which they were
obtained.
Miss Charter, of West Union. a sis
of Russell Charter, formerly student
here, was elected to place on the
teaching force, in the place of Mrs.
Lyons, who had been chosen but re-
fused to accept. Miss Charter is a
teacher of much experience, and comes
with the best possible prospects of a

and teacher for the peninsula school
are to be chosen yet. The Beard is
expecting a communication from an
applicant for the High School today,

idea OF Morgantown becoming a

of remarks when the town began to
grow ten years ago. 1t has grown

marks.

it city of from ten to twelve thou
sand people are just beginning to
get under good Roadway. They will
make it, city of twenty five thous-
and in very few years.
We have grown to our present
size without the stimulus of the
