frank N. JoIHfe, correspondentl
MANNINGToN, Aug. lit has be
come The custom throughout West
Virginia IN the last few years to abuse
the Standard OIL CO. and John D. Rock
efeller and attribute all the III of life
to the Standard and other trusts.
While there are evils in the trusts
and some Of them are worse than 9th
ers, yet do not believe West Viz
ginia has any reason to complain Of
the STANDARD Oil Co. 1t Is probably
the greatest business organization IN
the world and for that reason is
dangerous rival in any line of bust,
ness # enters and it may have been
hard on the independent producer,
but to the laboring man 1t has been a
great boon. The Standard OIL Co. has
given a dignity to labor in this part
Of the State never dreamed of before
It came into the State to do business.
It has not only given more dignity
to labor but It has given 10 labor a
Just recompense. When 1t came into
this part Of the State 1t did not ask
what the ruling wages were but 1t paid
STANDARD Oil Co. wages which were
more than double what had been paid
fot common labor. Not only this but
the necessaries of life made by the
standari Oil Co. are the best that
can be made and are always sold at a
reasonable price. While John D.
Rockefeller may be the richest man
in the United States he has never lost
his integrity, has always been a great
phtlanthropist and has done an i'm
mense amount of good. His millions
donated to charity have always been
for the uplifting Of humanity. His
home life has always been above sus-
picion and might well be taken as an
example by all men, both rich and
poor
In pursuance of the late law the city
council met last night for the purpose
of laying the levy for the coming year.
The levy was fixed al 10 cents on the
500 valuation for general expenses
and 10 cents on the 500 TO provise IN
terest and sinking fund for the street
bonds.
They have also arranged TO put in
a large sewer from the Burttown hill
to the reek. This has long been
needed, but as 1t was an expensive I'M
dertaklng It has been delayed until
this time.
1t is the policy Of the city govern.
ment to make as much permanent i'm
provement as possible each year.
The health department has had con-
siderable trouble With some of the
property owners on Buffalo street who
seem determined 10 disregard all the
laws of health and common decency.
The city will see that the laws are en-.
forced and that vigorously.
Mrs. S. Anna Morgan has returned
