ReIIesreM.

Notwithstanding the efforts OF
mislead purchasers, or the omission
on the part OF papers to herald the
news of sales made, ond deeds re
corded Belleview is still in the front
free from protest and complaint,
either in prose or poetry
There is no intention on the part
Of the owners To advertise, more gas
and water PIPE, and board walk than
could be stacked on the ground,
although Belleview is much larger
than any other block OF lots on the
market.
AS there is one minor owner, all
sales are reported to the circuit
court, at the cost of the owners for
inspection of title which none of the
other real estate dealers dol aud con
tirmation, before any money is dc
manded Deeds for all lots are made
at the close Of each term OF the cir
cult court, after purchase.
The examination OF the title ahd
the aseertainment, that NJ liens nor
Membranes exist, is far better
than an abstract, OF tracer oil title
made by some Interested party.
Belleyiew challenges any and all
dealers to detect the least sign Of
cloud upon its title, or its owners
right TO convey.
It's lots, streets and alleys are he
largest, its location the nearest to
the center of Morgantown, posses
sing the best view, as its name indi-
Gates, with the purest water and
most healthful surroundings.

Using in order 10 seccre purchasers
as the advantages offered are snfi

As sample, the two lots, Nos. 80
and SO one year, ago sold Eliza Davis
at cost of $3.50, upon which
house has been erected costing $500
to $4,000. was last week sold to E. L.
Parker Tor $4,000 while the local
papers referred to the sale, as lots
50 and SO Grant district forgetting
to state they were in Belleview. An
other instance. Ida E. Mason pur-
chased three lots for $1025 selling
one OF them for $1,000, and refusing
$3.50 for another and $3.50 for the
other one All this without one
cent IN improvement, or expense.
A dozen more residences will be
built this summer, and no one has
felt need, or inclination to kick
on having bought and built in
Belleview.
Ia the DEGREES directing and con
firming the sale of the minors inter
est, Mr.. Frank Cox is appointed
Special Commissioner to make sale
OF, and deed for the minor interest
and the other owners join in these
deeds to convey their interests.
When these transfers are mentioned
ard there have been many of them,
no reference is made, strange as it
may appear, that the lots are it Bell

TWO CENTS
100000 COAL DEAL
Land Lies in Monongalia and
Preston Counties.

Another Deal for $4,000 on Ha
First Money ON big Deal Paid out
Saturday, Through the Law Firm Of
Cramer 4 Yeager They Represent
Beth Sellers and Buyers.
Nearly one hundred thousand dol
lars more OF ready cash is coming into
The pockets of Monongaiia aud Preston
county farmers. A deal has just been
closed with Pittsburg purchasers for
nearly 5000 acres OF Freeport coal ~
ing on the drains of Decker's Greek
The first money on this deal was
paid out Saturday last About $t5,.
600 is to be paid out Immediately for
the first payments on this coal, as the
deeds are made. This will put big
amount OF cash into circulation among
the farmers ia section ai country
that has not been seriously injured by
an over supply OF coin in any OF Its
past history.
The property lies principally on the
south side of Dceker's Creek, adjoin-
ing the coal lands of Senator Elkins,
It extends to the M. K X railroad
near to Masontown. The coal Is
taken up for ultimate development,
but this will probably not be done
right now. Some Of 1t has been pur-
chased at a good round figure however
and it will not likely DE very long be-
fore developments is begun
Captain G. w. Cramer. Lewis A
Yeager, John Lantz, and others OF
this place have carried out negotia-
tions and censummated the deal. 1t
is one Of the biggest that has been
made ia this section for long time,
a2gregating about 800, 900.
Another tract involving the pay
ment OF about $40, 000 has been op.
TONED, and negotiations are pending
for the sale of this It will likely be
closed out very soon
The law firm of Cramer L Yeagcr
is attorney for the farmers selling the
coal land and for the parties buying
it, representing in legal capacity,
all the parties connected with the
deal. All the money is being paid
out to the land owners through them,
aud all the abstracts Of titles are be.
ing made by the same firm.
The abstracting of the titles has in
volyed great amount of work, and
required the closest application to
business on the part OF the attorneys
for several mo nths past.
Another big deal for tract OF more
than sc, 900 acres Of coal land Is being
negotiated, by the same parties. IL
It goes through it will be the biggest
transfer ever made in this section, ex-
cept by such firms as the big railroad
companies.

70 their memory the soldiers monu-
ment, coated and dedicated BY their
survivors so many years agos It is
beautiful location. The contour
Of the grounds is elevated, aud CON
handing the beautiful river and the
valley, and like a guardian angel
the monument will stand sentinel
over our city az night, reminding
our children and our children's chill
dren to love their country first, last
and for all time How could we ex-
pend money more judiciously or
wisely? The time and the money
that each would give would be no
sacrifice al all in these times when
money is so plenty and when pros
perity is at the flow.
On behalf of Oak Grove Cemetery
aud its officers, | now pledge, after
consulting many OF them, the sum OF
$4,000 to start the subscription for
the completion of this monument.
Ne doubt it will be the pleasure Of
the County Court OF the county. out
of its full treasury, to make an ap-
preparation OF ST. 100000 as nepular
subscription, Tor thereby the hum
blest taxpayer will feel that the
soldiers memorial is part ana parcel
of his own property 1t is legitimate
and lawful for the County Court to
make such a subscription, and no
more popular action could be taken
by the members of the court than to
convene the court, on or before the
30th day of MAY, and to pledge the
county for 100000 subscription to
this most honorable cause. The last
State Legislature recognized the
propriety Of making such appropri
ations out OF the peoples money and
appropriated large sum of money
for a fitting memorial to the Indian
fighter. Morgan, TO be built at New
Martinsville, in this state. Let the
County Court follow its worthy ex
ample Who will say it nay? Not
one. Within thirty days we can
have a handsome sum Of money and
within few months the monument
will be completed and paid for.
The treasurer OF the Oak Grove
Cemetery has given good bond
with ample security to keep safe
such monies fer the people, and il
will be doubled in amount whenever
additional bond is asked
Let the monument be dedicated
with proper Inscriptions, not only To-
the boys in blue OF the sixties, bat
also to the hoys who fell or who
died with disease IN the Spanish
American War, and then, too, on the
other side of the monument, let it be
dedicated to our deceased war sena-
ter, the old wheel horse, the Honor
able Waitman I. Wiley, whose calm
judgement and prophetic foresight
guarded the ship of state in those
turbulent times and added another
star to our beloved flag. Who does
not want to see a fitting public mon
ument to one Of the greatest and
most distinguished senators this
country has ever produeed2 The
people demand it.
Then, let the veterans OF both wars
at once meet and appoint committee
to wait upon the County Court and
ask that the court be convened and
appropriate 100000, and let there
be finance committee appointed
with full power to act and raise the
money, or it can be done now. Now
is the time to act
Respectfully,
