SION OF PROGRESSIVE WEST
VIRGINIA COUNTIES.

HUNTINGTON, Feb. 1s.-That rail.
road Development In this State is in
its infancy is an indisputable fact. The
State Is experiencing an era In raft.
road Development which is only sec.
onded by the unusual activity In thu
opening of coal and timber lands.
The latest developments are taking
place in and about Logan. The Chesa.
peake Ohio. the Norfolk & Western,
the Deepwater and the Island Creek
railroads are all trying to secure in.
let's and outlets to this territory in
which many new leases are being on.
ened.
The Norfolk & Western and the
Chesapeake & Ohio appear to be
wording in conjunction to secure
eastern and western outlets from this
new field.
The Chesapeake & Ohio has a
corps OF engineers located at the
mouth Of Buffalo creek. These men
It is thought are planning a road up
Gilbert creek and then down Ben
creek to connect about Wahrnecliffe
with ths Norfolk & Western.
The Norfolk 6 Western It is said
will extend along the Pinnacle fork
OF the G1yandotte down to the mouth
OF the Gilbert creek. where they can
secure a western outlet over the
Chesapeake and Ohio.
In this way It is expected that this
entire territory will be opened up.
The Norfolk & Western would
have a western outlet while both roads
will secure eastern privileges by
throwing their tonnage over the main
line of the Norfolk & Western down
the Big Sandy.
The Norfolk & Western and the
Chesapeake & Ohio were undoubtedly
compelled to join forces to meet the
action of the new Deepwater.
The Deepwater has bought the rights
of way to connect with the Island
Creek railroad at Holden.
The island Creek railroad is owned
by the United States Coal n Coke
Company. a subsidiary OF the Standard
Oil Company. Since Standard Oil In.
terests are back OF the Deepwater. IL
is thought that they win build a
branch line to connect with the Island
Creek railroad and go along Guyan
Valley and by this route reach Hunt.
ington.
The Island Creek railroad already
covers the territory between Logan
and Holden and 1t will be an easy mat.
ter for the Deepwater to connect with
them at that point and in this way
have considerable say in the fixing Of
rates for carrying coal from this i'm
mense tract OF coal lands.
Then again they will secure a CHEAP
western o1tiet because they will be
able to load coal on barges at Hunting.
ton, shipping to various points by wat
while the Norfolk & Western and
Chesapeake & Ohio will be compelled
to haul overland by a more dificult
route.
1t is difficult to understand the ac-
tons Of the various railroads as the
plans arc in their infancy and,no Off.
cial information can be secured. It is
very evident that something Is being
done which will undoubtedly affect
most materially the prosperity of Lo-
gan county.
Judging from the present activity
the town of Logan will shortly receive
an impetus which win undoubtedly
place 1t in a class with other West
Virginia towns which have doubled
and trehied and in many cases qaai-
irupled their population since the cen-
sus.

Through the medium of the clubs,

that many of the defects of character
