SIX SEEKERS
At THE ALTAR
At the Revival Meetings Conducted
in Golf Methodist Episcopal
Church.

One of the very good and profit
able afternoon MEETINGS was that of
yesterday in the Cor Methodist
Episcopal church. There was lar
ger attendance than usual and the
Bible reading was much enjoyed by
those present.
At night the attendance was not
quite as large as the night before
but the meeting proved to be one of
the best. Following the song and
prayer service which marked the
opening of the service the pastor
preached sermon on Gods Plea
to the Sinner" from the words of
the wise man, "Son Give Me Thine
Heart" in which he set forth that
inasmuch as the heart stood for the
seat of affection and the affections
Influenced the will and to some ex-
tent the understanding that Gods
plea, which was also claim, was
for the entire man. The devotion
of Washington to his country through
which he earned the honorable dis
tinctiou Father of His Country, /"
was set forth as an illustration of
the Christians devotion to his God.
Christ set forth this exalted devo-
ton when he summarized all the law
and the prophets into the two great
commandments. viz. Complete love
to God exemplified in love to our fell
bowman.
At the close of the sermon six
came forward to the altar of prayer
and two professed to be happily con-
verified. There will only be one meet
ing today, general testimony SER
vice at 1880 o'clock this evening, All
are invited.

1t is urgent that 4here should be
legislation in this respect, and Gov
ernor Dawson will be warranted in
calling an extra session Of the legis-
lature for the express purpose of i'm
proving mining conditions. Every
newspaper in the State should urge
such action on his part. But. it is
hardly such urging will be necessary.
And. II the legislature does not come
to the rescue. the courts themselves
should do so.

The many friends of Charles F.
Holden, county clerk. are sad be-
cause of his demise in the young
manhood of life. Mr.. Holden was an
excellent gentleman. possessing edu-
cational attainment and a character
above reproach. He filled the ONCE
of county clerk in a very efficient
manner and was faithful to the trust
reposed in him. All sympathize with
the berett ones and will miss him.
As county clerk he won the deepest
respect OF the public and the court
had implicit confidence in him, most
meritoriously so.

Industries Are Wanted

The Clarksburg Board of Trade
and its secretary, Mr.. G. e. Lamberd,
know how to state the proposition.
Read this and be convinced, IL not
already:
Our citizens are progressive,
wide-awake and energetic men. alert
to the interests of their city. The
Board of Trade is composed of some
of our best men. This organization
will endeavor to secure free sites for
desirable manufacturers.
las we have everything that is
essential to attract desirable indus
tries-cheap gas. and plenty of 1t,
coal millions of tons-adequate
means of transportation, we there
fore never offer bonus. Investi-
gate US, write us. come to see us
we stand ready to show you.
Industries Clarksburg wants are
silk mills, additional glass factories,
furniture factories of all kinds,
structural iron mills, wooden mills,
sash and door factory. cathedral glass
factory, sky light glass factory, We
neer works. There is an excellent
opportunity for a tin can factory.
The product is made in Clarksburg
by the Phillips Sheet & Tin Plate
Company. The tin cans will find
ready sale in Baltimore and other
eastern cities, where enormous guam
titles of fruits and vegetables are
constantly being canned. A factory
of this kind can be conducted on a
very economical basis. Material to
be had here, cheapest fuel on earth,
plenty of help, and excellent freight
facilities.
"Clarksburg wants every manufac-
turing industry that is dependent up
on cheap fuel for successful opera
ton.
"Clarksburg is rapidly attracting
the attention of all manufacturers of
glass and pottery. and many are
moving their plants to this city. This
is, of course. due to the great sup
ply of gas: and in this connection. we
might add that while we have enor-
nous quantities Of gas. it is the pol
Icy Of our people to husband their
resources; they do not permit gas
to be wasted: it is all burned on the
meter system. This policy viii add
rnxny years additional life to the
supply, and enables US to use this
wonderful gift of nature to the up
building of our city.
Glass sand OF superior quality
abounds in the immediate vicinity"
The Telegram needs add nothing
TO the appeal or the statement OF
facts. as they ought to be all needed
to convince manufacturers Of the in
ducements Clarksburg has to offer.

Want Daniels Counsel.

Senator Dainel was not retained,
as has been inaceurately suggested,
because the attorney general and Mr..
BraXton cannot probably give the liti-
cation all the attention it requires,
for in this phase of the litigation it
is not regarded as necessary for the
State to have as yet any large num-
Der of lawyers, but because of Sena-
tor Daniels great ability as a law
yer, his high character as a man and
his devoted patriotism, it was deemed
wise to have now the benefit of his
counsel and assistance in these six
important cases which involve so
much for the State

more able and experienced lawyers.
