Alex K. Mari has made move
that ensures cheap and reliable fu-

has provided for his own prosperity
by reducing the price to 5000 per
ton. 1t is generally understood
that the Riach bank will soon close
for the rest of the winter and if it
were not for Mr.. Marr's enterprise
some of US would have to ge to the
woods for fuel. Further, Mr.. Mari
shows he is no hog by reducing the
price just when his only competitor
is leaving the market temporarily.
1t is conceded by all who have had
a fair test that the Mari coal is sup
erior fuel to any shipped as yet
from the Riach Bank. Of course
what may develope with the deep
