PLANS A11AcK~ On MORTON
TO TODAY SECRETARY OF
"a. T. N.vv
whict AGA -

Washington, July 1.-Organized Ia
Dor is preparing to make determined
fight against Paul Morton, who will
today become secretary Of the navy.
He is regarded by labor unions as a
powerful enemy Of workingmen, who
in his new position will be able to
greatly injure their interests
AS secretary Of the navy he will
control machinists and other employees
in the great yards. A petition was re-
Gently made to President Roosevelt for
an increase in wages to the 400 union
men working In the navy yards here.
The matter will be taken up with Mr..
Morton when he becomes secretary.
The Central Labor union, of this
city, will start the formal fight
against Mr.. Morton next Monday
evening, when there will be a mass
meeting Of organized labor to discuss
the subject.
The new secretary is considered by
them an out-and-oot enemy of organ
lied labor. The machinists and the
miners are both bitter toward him
the miners because he is first vice
president of the Colorado Fuel and
Iron company, and the machinists
because he is first vice president of
the SAINT Fee railway system.
Neither the miners nor the machin-
lists are DESTROYS of starting cam
,paign against Mr.. Morton, but they
will take an active part in the anti
Morton mass meeting. The officials
of these organizations realize that any
public attack by them would be con-
sidered as merely pique end would
lack the desired effect.
The machinists fear that with Mr..
Morton at the head of the navy de-
partment their 6ght.. to have the wages
Of the 400 machinists in the Washing
ton navy yard being increased will be
lost.
Their only chance they think is to
compel Mr.. Motion from outside
sources to grant the increase. An anti
Morton campaign at this time would
be distasteful to the administration
and the maohinists believe 1t possible
that the administration will compel
Mr.. Morton to grant the increase.

For the benefit Of Der Nordstern Of
st. Cloud, the editor Of the Herald
wishes to say that he doesn't regard
1t as necessary to ask that journal for
permission to live in the Sixth dis
trlct. Furthermore the democrats Of
Morrison county are not In need of
advice from outsiders, and least of all
from Der Nordstern.

President Schurmau of Cornell uni
versity is in trouble. He said that if
the Cubans were prepared for SELF
government in "a months, and the
Panama republic in "a hours, there
was no sense in keeping the Filipinoa
Indefinitely waiting. And for this he
has been called a copper head.

Sistersville daily oil review. [volume] (Sistersville, W. Va.) 1902-1905, 1904-09-03

There seems to have been a
wrong understanding on the part
of some people regarding the new
tax on firearms. AS will be seen
by the following letter from Otto
Heiskell Hardware company, of
Wheeling, to a local dealer, the
new law only applies to such ar
ticles for which an individual has
practically no use and Is often
better off without. and does not
affect guns, loaded shells or am
munition of any kind. The tax
on those articles is good provls-
ion. as it will restrict their sale to
a great extent. The letter Is as
follows:
Wheeling. Aug. 81, 1904.
Dear Sir:-As there is a gen
eral misapprehension in regard to

West Virginia S deep sand ter
ritory was responsible for several
good strikes in August, which
helped materially in swelling the
amount of the new production.
Still nothing out Of the ordinary
round was opened up and the
biggest gushers declined very rap
idly. No new fields appear to be
| in sight and the good wells were
mostly in the vicinity or within
the defined limits of former pro-
ductive pools.
The West Virginia record for
August showed 24i wells cOmplet-
ed, of which number 3S were
busters and 30 gasSers. while the
new production summed up 1922
barrels. This is the largest amount
credited to West Virginia wells in
the past two years. Compared
with July. this represents an IN
crease of IS wells completed, 93'
barrels production and 20 dry
holes. In work under way there
was a gain of ; rigs and loss Of

Warrington showed heavy
gains in new wells and new pro-
duction over July. having COM
pleted 46 more wells and increas-

new operations there was a small
decline. Wetzel and Tyler also
made large increase over the
preceding month. while Sisters
&le declined both in new wells
and new production. In July Sis
tersville had Il productive wells
that averaged 80 barrels apiece.
