corn fields are turned brown, and
the farmers are working almost

TWO CENTS
LABOR UNION CHARTERED
First One Ever so Formed in
West Virginia.
1t Probably Holds the Record for line
Whole Country Men Interested
Trouble Expected with. the Standard
over ft-UnIen Men will be Respon.
sIbIe under New Plan.


Articles OF Incorporation have
been granted by the secretary of
state to the first labor union that
has ever been incorporated under
the laws of West Virginia, if not in
the notion.
The new order is intended to take
in the men employed in the oil fields
OF the state and is known as the
United Brotherhood of Oil and Gas
Workers of America The head
quarters are located at Amos, which
is the center of the oil district Of
Marion and the adjoining counties.
The purpose of the organization is
to encourage a higher standard of
skill, to cultivate friendship among
the craft, to assist each other in
procuring employment, to establish
libraries and reading rooms, and to
do any and all things necessary for
the advancement and good OF the
organization.
The capital stock is fifty Thousand
dollars, and the ineorporators are j.
L. Harrison, w A. Mitchell, J. 5.
Phisler, L. H. Carroll, and w. ID.
Waid, of Amos.
This is the first attempt made in
the state of West Virginia to organ
ize the oil workers, although several
attempts, more or less unsuccessful,
have been made in other states OF
the union. The promoters claim
that the majority of the oil workers
of the state will become members.
A feature that has attracted much
comment, is that the union is incor-
porated and is consequently re
sponsible in damages for its acts.
Several of the principal stock
holders have been dismissed by tho
South Penn for their actions and it
is reported that a wholesale strike
will follow.

From the summer resort hotel on
the lake edge, Miss Grierson drove
to the telegraph office and sent a
brief message to a far-away mining
camp in the Rockies. What she wrote
on the square of yellow paper was
well within the ten-word limit, but it
was fraught with consequences to Jas
per Grierson out of all proportion
to it's brevity. "He has broken faith,
and you may come" was the message
licked off by the wires into western
space. And when she had paid for
it, and had seen it shot bullet-wise
up the pneumatic tube to the oper-
ating room, she sighed again. 1t was
another bridge burned; a bridge of
price to young person whose am
billions were chiefly social.
After this. she drove home to don
her simplest gown while the man was
putting up the high-swung trap and
the big English horse, and making
ready the pony and the phaeton.
She made a long round in the
phaeton, driving herself. 1t began
on the manufacturing side of town,
| and ended there, and was house-to-
house visitation in the quarter occu-
pied by the cottages of the iron
works men. She saw few of the men;
but she did better. She saw and
talked with the wives of the men.
What she said to the women, and
what her saying of it was like to ac-
complish was set forth in brief con-
ference with Edward Raymer at the
