This condition has its inception

Mr.. Armstrong received handsome

the lease drilling must begin within

The discovery OF oil there will cause
an excitement that viii result in the
drilling of the finest lawns in the

that within the next twelve months
the Pittsburg Of West Virginia, to
say nothing Of Oil City, will be
adorned with oil derricks-we say
adorned, for a derrick at q gasher

full thing one can lay eyes on, and

The movement to organize Il Bllsi-
ness Mems Association here has de-
veloped to that stage where its sue
cessful naturalization is believed to
be fully assured, and all that re-
mains now is hearty cooperation at
the public meeting tobe held in the
court house at s o'clock Tuesday
evening. Owing to the great inn
portance of the movement it is urg-
ed that there be a large representa-
ton of the business men of the city
at the meeting Tuesday night, as q
permanent organization of board
Of trade will then be undertaken.
The matter is worthy of the SER
ious consideration and attention and
time of all who desire a Greater
Clarksburg. 1T will be sthe first
time in the history Of Clarksburg
that there has been a permanent
board Of trade. 1t will be observed
that a number of the large cities Of
the State have boards Of trade and
all are members of the State Board
of Trade, while Clarksburg does not
yet enjoy the advantages Of member
ship in that splendid organization.
Besides, there are many other COM
mendable features about local
board of,trade, and every city of i'm
portance has one.
1t is gratifying to know Clarks-
burg is about to have one, and it IS
earnestly urged that the business
men attend the meeting. Tuesday
night and add in the formation Of a
local board Of trade.
