crease the population or the amount
of business transacted.

A BARGE loaded with stone con-
signed to Fred Dean has grounded
at the landing place and 1T will
made the problem of unloading it a
very nice one.
| COMPARED with few years ago
Morgantown is now very different
place. New factories are being built
in every direction and the old town is
surprising itself at the progress being
made.
GET your good road proposition
in shape to submit to the people.
Expressions heard from all classes
are in favor Of the plan or OF any
plan whereby we may get better
roads than we have.
THE frame of the Number which
was wrecked the other day will be
sent away to be repaired but the
rest of the repairs on the Black
bottle engine mny be made right
here at home.
PEACH trees are blooming and the
rest OF the fruit trees will be in
bloom in day or so. They have
broken all the records and every
one is anxious that they may not be
nipped before the spring lie here to
stay.
A map of the city of Morgantown
has been stolen from Municipal Hall,
and everyone who had occasion to use
the map is put to much Inconvenience
by the fact that it is missing. The
map was open to the public, and why
anyone would want to steal it is a
mystery.
SUPPLY wires for the trolley line
are being placed They start out
Walnut street and then up High.
The men at work putting up these
wires are having lots of superin-
ten.ience paid them by rubbernecks.
WARNINGS have been issued look
ing toward the streets being cleaned.
There isn't any body in town who
will get mad if the streets are
cleaned and those responsible made
to pay for the taking away of the
trash.
THERE will be no Improvement in
the roads until we shall adopt sys
TEN of making good roads. Then
they will be good and will stay
good. The money which is now
thrown away will give US this bless
ing besides which all others posi-
BILE to us fade into insignidcence.

IT has been reported about town
that the Office on Chancery Row
which has been occupied by j. M.
g. Brown and now owned by Nc
Dermott and Huston is to be used
as butcher shop. This report has
.oused much unrest among those
who have offices on the row.
The good road scheme is receiv-
iprr MANN av,.raooiapc IF oor,a ~, ~, n a
ton and it is going to be winner.
What the country needs Is good
roads and there is no time like the
spring time to let geople see that
this time is true. The roads are at
their worst right now.
| In short time the lots at the
South end of the new Greenmont
bridge will be on the market. There
does not seem to be any scarcity of
lots In and about the city although
there is scarcity of houses. What
we must have is more homes for the
people who want to come here.
NEXT week the municipal election
is to be held. There does not seem to
be very much interest taken in the af
fair. The only interest which the
citizens of the town should have 10 it
is to see that the best men are chosen
| for the several offices. The best in
terests OF the town will receive the
proper attention If this be done.
THE rain which began on Saturday
has kept 1T up rather faithfully since
that time. The storm is probably the
spring equinox and after it gets past
there is very little danger Of very
cold spell coming on US. Those who
are interested in a fruit crop are glad
Of this. They have been scared at
the prospect of having the fruit kill
ed.
BUSINESS and professional men in
tie towns of Uniontown, Connells-
vile, Scottdale and in fact all the
towns in that part OF Pennsylvania
have formed an ASSOCIATION with the
avowed purpose of putting the dead
beats out of business. They are
going to publish those who do not
pay in manual. All of the delin-
quents are busy getting into line.
WHEN it comes to a matter of
machines making glass SO cheaply
that nen have to work for seventy
five cents day to compete with it,
the finish of the trade of glass work
ers at good wages can be seen with
out the aid of specks. The makers
claim that is what the machines can
do but whether they will do but
whether they will do what is claim
ell for them is an entirely different
matter.
