when he was in Salt Lake about two
months ago the Herald sent man to
Goldfield to write up the Sullivan in

pages of the New Year edition of the
Herald, said to be the largest adv.r-
Using contract ever made for a single

Sullivan company bought 32,vJU copies

There were, however, (and here the
whole scheme stands revealed), some
what less than four million acres of
these worthless or denuded lands own
I'd by the companies in the year 1897
which had been caught within the con-
fines of government forest reserves.
AS soon as the law passed, the rail
roads proceeded promptly to exchange
nut these worthless lands for the fin
est timDer-lands the government
owned.
at was the Northern Pacific that
turned the trick, but it was Weyer-
1aeuser who was to benefit. For the
asst thirty years Weyerhaeuser has
been practically the timber agent Of
the Northern Pacific, and also of the
Great Northern. A whole story might
be written about the deals by which
he spoilers, in the guise of the rail-
roads, secured these valuable lands
from the government. Then a sequel
might be written showing the spoil
alton of the spoilers. The officers Of
he Northern Pacific, working through
he Weyerhaeuser timber companies
sold great tracts of these rich lands
20 the Weyerhaeuser syndicate for a
song Six dollars an acre is said to
ave been the ruling price. r. L. Nc
'ormick, the Weyerhaeuser agent in
Tacoma. Wash, admits that that is
What the company paid for one mil
ion of Northern Pacific land lying
vest of the Cascades. 1t was one
'uarter-section out of this lot, the one
hundred and sixty acres referred to
EARLIER, that sold for seventy-six thous-
md dollars-a profit of two thousand
1erfcent, in few short years.
fsrhis shrewd deal, whereby Weyer-
1aeuseri got the richest timber lands
n the world at practically no cost and
without the, slightest danger to any
me, turned the attention of the syn
dictate to the northwest, and having
robbled3 up everything in the Mississ-
ppi river district the same machin-
Try that had worked so effectively
here was put In, operation in the west
Tor some time Weyerhaeuser had
'Seen buying, trading, and by other
means taking over lands in the north
vest 1T was in 1900 that a big spluge
vas made. All the Northern-Pac
and west of the Cascades, something
over a million acres, was taken at a
Eat rate of six dollars an acre. Ac-
,ording to well Informed men dealing
IN lumber on the coast, there is al
ready a profit of twenty millions in
hat one deal"
This mans methods, says Mr. Nor

i4lNita3i
MAlsSINeToN, Jaly 2s perhaps
few people realize what battle royal
is being fought aitsoyer this state t q
the possession o. the great nat1ral
gas territory. It has heens spparent %
the close observer for several years
that West Virginia is the greatest field
for natural gas 50 far discovered. The
many new uses to which gas has be n
put IS making an unprecedented de-
mand for 1t. 1t is the ideal fuel both
for the home and the factory and PEG
pie are beginning to realize that Il is
both luxury and a necessity. All. the
great gas companies have immense
pipe lines into this State and are ex.
tending them all the time. They are
pushing their lines farther south eY:
cry year and are eager to get gas at
almost any price. The Philadelphia
Company 1.-THE largest suppliers Of nat.
1ral gas in the worldl; the Hope Nat
.ural Gas Company 1.-THE gas department
of the Standard OIL company); the
Carnegie Natural Gas Company, and
the Wheeling Natural Gas Company,
all have large lines all through this
section and are fighting eagerly for
the possession Of the gas. Many wells
are being drilled in this county and
Harrison and many more win be drill.
ed in the near future as it is now
necessary to drill as the farmer is no
longer satisfied with a small annual
rental. To force this gas into the mar.
kets Of the great cities large pumping
stations are being built to add addi'
tional pressure. There are now two
large pumping stations near Hundred,
W. Va, and another is building near
wadestown, Monongalia county. There
IS one large station near Downs, this
county, and another is building. So
1T is very evident thu these large com
panies propose. to increase their hold,
ings and also their supply of gas. II
IS not possible to stop the transporta,
lion Of gas out of this State, but is Il
possible to make it SO attractive to
the manufacturers Of other States that
they will come into the State for the
gas? This seems to be the problem 10
be solved If we are to have the bene-
ft Of our gas.
