will be no one can tell. She almost

ranks second among the States in the
total value of the petroleum produced

scribed an oil spring in the beautiful
Kanawha valley, and just before the
Civil war the discovery of oil in shall
low wells, near the city Of Plrkers-
burg, caused the most intense excite
ment, scarcely equaled by the discov-
cry of gold in California. Towns
sprang into existence almost in day;
but the war broke up the oil excite
ment and 1t was not until 1866 that the
industry was put on legitimate basis.
The burning springs" of the State
were well known to the Indians and
were looked upon by them as indica-
tons of the wrath of the Great Faith

scrtbes one OF these phenomena; but 1t
was not until the latter part of the
last century that practical use was
made Of the gift of nature. A well was
bored in one of the upper counties and
gas was found in sufficient quantities
to be used In manufacturing. Since
that time wells have been bored in all
directions and the State now ranks as
third in the production OF natural gas.

The census of 1870 was the first to
schedule in any way the material in
terests of West Virginia, and all COM
parfson as to growth must be based
on that. In that year our population
was four hundred and twenty-four
thousand; today it is one million two
hundred and fifty thousand. OF these
eight hundred thousand are over ten
years of age, and among them are
only eighty thousand illiterates. In
1870 We had only eleven millions of
capital employed in manufacturing;
now we have over five thousand manu-
featuring establishments with upward
OF eighty millions of capital invested,
and finished product worth one hun
dred and twenty-five millions. In 1870
we had only one thousand five hun.
ired and twenty-seven miners with an
annual wage Of eight thousand dollars.
Now we have seven hundred Thousand
wage earners, with an annual wage
amounting to eighteen millions. In
1870 the product of our mines was val.
ued only at two and one-half millions
In 1870 the value of our farms was only
one hundred millions; now it is more
than double.
With all this material prosperity the
West yirginian has in all these years
been most careful in caring for the
intellectual advancement of his chill
dren. The wonderful growth OF the
State has given him an opportunity to
establish a most magnificent public
school system. This has been compile
mented with a series. OF normal
schools, preparatory schools for the
university, and the university itself.
This latter is an institution of high
rank and during the present year has
an enrolment Of eleven hundred stu

TONS materials for the building %
locks and dams by the Government
have been discovered. An abundance
Of good potterss clay and IRE clay IS
found; and West Virginia ranks fourth
in its production OF pottery products.
Good grfts for grfndstones and yalr-
able iron ore are located in many Of
its hills and one county Of the State
furnishes white sand of exceptional
purity, about the best found in the
United States, for glass making.
Our forests are perhaps the great
est now standing as regards hard
woods. BY far the larger portion of
the uucleared lands IS still in forests,
where the axe of man has never found
its way. Except In California, where
the redwood" trees attain tremen-
dous size, NO finer timber can be found
within the confines of the Union than
that which grows IN West Virginia.
Tremendous onslaughts have been
made upon these forests and armies
Of choppers have. made tnroads on the
woods throughout the state; but yet
we still have an abundance of hard
wood, and some of the largest tam
neries of the country are located with
in our borders.
Yet with all thfs great wealth we
are proud Of our farms, for West vir-
ginfa is an agricultural State. The
blue grass of Kentucky is equaled by
that of Greenbrfer and adjoining coun-
ties near the center OF the State, and
the stock raised there brings the high
est, price of any meat that is brought
into the New York markets. Sheep
roam on Thousand hills and their
wool is among the best produced.
Three great railroad lines traverse
the State and the fourth and fifth are
being built. For three hundred miles,

boundary and into it empties four,
great streams. three of which have
been locked and damned by the Gov
eminent, and contracts will soon: be.

ming. and stfl possesses, the two great
elements of success for manltacturI
ing4cheap and abundant raw material
and cheap and abundant fuel. AS 1
have shown above, nowhere else in
the world are these two essentials of
manufacturing life more abundantty
found, and believe, and the great ma
jority of the people Of West Virginia
believe, and in fact know, that the
raw material and cheap fuel would
still be lying undeveloped in our
mountains and valleys had it not been
for the Republican party and a pro-
tective tariff. 1t would have been alb.
solutely impossible, without our pro-
tectfve tariff, to have established in
this State the iron and the pottery in
dustries, enabling us to make the fin
est wares produced anywhere. There
| would have been no glass manufac.
lures, of which we are SO proud; there
would have been no development of
iron mines, OF our oil fields and gas
wells, which are pushing our State to
the very front rank. There would
have been no such development OF our
agricultural lands or of our lumber
interests.

ENGLISH PRECAUTIONS.
Many Lives Saved Through Watch

Consul Marshall Halstead reports from
Birmingham on some of the methods in
Great Britain for the saving of lives, as fol-
lows:
The Birmingham city council has In
creased the number of women health in
spectors from 4 to 20 because of the excel
lent results achieved in the homes of the
poor and in the factories. First aid to the
injured is another excellent civic work in
Birmingham. members of which respond to
calls even when involving loss of money or
pleasure. The Birmingham policemen have
also been taught the principles OF FIRST
aid"
EnsIand's few boiler explosions and per-
sons killed and injured as compared with
those of America is shown by report or
the board of trade. During the twelve
months ending June So 1905. there were
from British steam-plant accidents smaller
returns than for any year since the boiler
explosions act of 1892 was passed, the aver
age for the past twenty-five years being
twenty-eight persons killed and sixty in
jured. On the other hand, The Locomotive.
published at Hartford. Conn.,. gives 1888 per-
sons as killed and 5S5 injured In the United
States. The number of steam boilers In
America does not exceed by 30 per cent
those in Great Britain hence the total num-
Der killed In the state should not exceed
forty per annum, whereas the actual death
roll is nearly ten times this amount. fact
which speaks volumes for the bad design
and reckless working associated with Amer
