TOWN AND VICINITY.
Worlds Fair Intelligence.

While in St. Louis Thomas w. Irwin,
of this place, met William Stryker, editor
of the Free Press, Winfield, Kansas, and
with the latter learned something of the
Exposition. Mr.. Irwin. however, has
since received copy of the Press, which
he has kindly turned over to the JOURNAL.
The first topic treated by Mr.. Stryker
is the one of expense" He says:
Eating places are numerous and well dis
tributed on the grounds with service and
prices practically the same as at the Harvey
railroad eating houses. Ten cents for cup
of coffee and other things in proportion,
paying for what is ordered
The Inside Inn with accommodations for
5000 furnishes excellent meals and COM
Portable rooms including admission to the
grounds for So to 81 per day. each depend
ing on the rOOm-two to Il room.
Good rooms and breakfast may be OBJ
tanned in the city at places convenient to
the car lines for 81 % to $50, two or more
to a room.
Then he tells of the "Temple of Fra
ternity," with an excellent restaurant
near by and a large hotel, the "Grand
View Fraternal, not far outside the
grounds"
cover all necessary expenses, even in
>i'Ni'S 'hS pStlSi pay VII
the pike" etc.
without exception the exhibits are
much larger and better in every way
than at Chicago, unless it be some of
those made by the government:
Wireless telegraphy, radium and many
other of the wonders and discoveries of re-
cent years all shown as completely and fully
as they are known.
Very many features impressed Mr..
Stryker. The showings made by his
own State, of Japan, Italy, France, etc,
are imposing. So also the display of
machinery:
AS one goes from building to building the
enormous proportions and the completeness
of the exhibits in all their details impresscs
itself more and more on ones mind. The
Filipino, just as he appears in his native
country, the Patagonan. and the inhabi-
tant of Alaska Everything from every
quarter of the globe reproduced as near as
possible as it would be seen if every quarter
of the globe was visited. All brought here,
within high board fence on a few sections
of land for the education and improvement
of the people of the world. 1t is the greatest
effort of its kind, but it will be eXcelled
within few years as this eXcels all others,
and will be done in America as it could not
be done elsewhere. Don't miss seeing the

An Important Matter.

The note below brings up vital topic ::
To the MINING JOURNAL.
There is differential of 10 cents in freight
charges against coal hauled from the Georges
Creek region and that from Somerset and
Upper Potomac regions.
The continuance of this means that the
Small Veins of the Georges Creek region
must remain undeveloped.
We ask your aid as a newspaper to help
change this condition.
Very respectfully,
Associated Merchants of Cumberland,
HrGH A. McMULLEN,
President.
At this moment nothing concerns the
welfare of the Georges Creek coal region
so much as the profitable development of
the small veins of coal.
There is not a growing business, not Il
lately surveyed town lot, not new
building, not an improvement, not a
good sale of real estate nor a sale with
drawn, that is not based upon future
bright with promise of small-vein pro-
duction and profit.
There are divergent opinions, of
course, concerning the probable extent
and success of small-vein coal III market,
the very best Judgment consulted by the
JOURNAL being to the effect that all the
preparations for long and prosperous
business future are substantially founded
The veins are widely extended, the
coal is already marketable, and will be-
come more so each year, amt TINS IS IN"
nearest Of all bituminonS regiOHS 10 the
sedbOard.
In everything except the "differen
tials' of quality and ease of mining the
small veins enjoy all the advantages
wherein the "Big Vein has reyeled.
And by the same token they own
some that West Virginia and Pennsyl-
vania bituminous layers have not.
1t stands our people in hand, and in
every respect vitality, to see that at least
our nearer proximity to market shall
not be accounted an injury to us by
discrimination in favor of their more
distant competitors.
This movement should not be con-
fined to Merchants Association, but it
should take on the popular voice of pro-
test and embody the collective wW of all
the people i'll city and county.
