ducing 90 per cent of the pig iron
of the United States and largely CIV
ing that iron its final form.
THE Southern states as a whole
possess more general accessibility to
coastllhe, and therefore to the COM
vnerce of the world. than either of the
other thirds of the United States. "A
string and a pin wheel will enable you
to prove this. You men who think on
commercial subjects do not heed that
detail to you the advantages that
rest with portion of the country that
can by statistical and governmental
proof declare that 1t has more coast
line, more navigable streams, more
water power, more minerals conveni-
emily arranged, more agricultural
range. more forests. more cheap land.
more accessibility TO ports than any
third OF the Union.
1.-THE meaning of this summing up
OF Southern opportunities is this. and
none but the blind will fail to see IT:
That there Is to be time in the i1ts-
tory of the United states, as whole,
it must have the support and develop
ment of the Southern states. 1t means
that our nation will never reach dts
full greatness. II means this. also,
that as sure as the sun shall rise to-
morrow there is to come q period Of
commercial development in the South
compared with which the past growth
has been but the totterlng footsteps
of an infant. These are not words of
Boosting or of bombast. but they are
serious words. based upon the tncon-
trovertible evidence of the South's re-
sources and what those resources
must lead to-"

Emissaries from PHtsburg
and Muncie Given the
Cold Shoulder.
LOCAL MEN A,NGERED
AT Agents for Trying to Get
Them Away from Their
Work Here.

TWO eniissaries of the American
Sheet and Tin Pite Company, by the
name of A. E. Piper, from the general
ONCE at Pittsburg. and Mark McDon-
ongh, of Muncle. Ind, came here since
the last issue of the Telegram, and
started out TO try to persuade em-
ployees Of the local tin mill to go with
them as strike breakers at some of
the corporation mills in Sharon, New
CASTLE and Elwood. Ind, where tin
mill men have refused to work under
the reduced wage scale made effective
July ] In the mills of the American
Sheet & Tin Plate Company.
As usual promises were made the
local men of what would be given
them II they went with the American
Sheet & Tin Plate Company. but in
stead OF proving attractive they were
only angered that clarksburg should
have been picked out as starting
ground for this strike breaking" eff
fort and body OF them got together
and demonstrated to Piper and Nc
Donough that this was an unhealthy
climate for them and they left the city
In hurry the same night, notwith-
standing their original intention of re-
naming here for several weeks.
The trouble existing between the
American Sheet & Tin Plate Company
and their employees can in no way
be allowed to affect the interest of the
city of clarksburg, and any attempt on
the part of either party to disturb the
interests OF any of our local Industries
will be strenuously opposed by every
citizen OF the community. The local
tin mill is one of the very few in the
country that furnishes continuous en-
ployment every month in the year,
and all their men ask is freedom from
outside interferences of the above
character.

Runaway Accident.

While Dr. F. l.. Osgood of Townshend
was making a professional call at the
Windham County House Sunday morning
his span of colts, which were fastened
with halter to the hitching post, broke
running as far as the bank, where they
collided with a stone post, freeing them
selves from the carriage, which was
somewhat damaged, and one of the colts,
four years old, which he bought of Les
lie Stratton, broke its hind leg, after
which they ran up the hill as far as H. A.
Carpenters and were stopped in his yard.
Although the animal did not seem TO be
suffering severely it was shot soon by
George Bush. The other colt was unin-
jured. The many friends of Dr. Osgood
in our village are sorry for his loss of this
valuable colt.
