For Building and Business
Progress the Next Sew
eral Months.

SUBMISSION, Mar, 20--Indications
are now pointiAg to continuation
during the coming months of last
summers activities in the building
and business progress OF Shinnston.
Several recent real estate deals
made in The business section, of
Shinnston lead to the almost certain
erection OF two more handsome
business blocks and a number OF
handsome new residences, the plans
of which have already been made,
will likely be started as soon as the
weather permits. Added to these con-
templated improvements is the
great amount OF unfinished work on
buildings started late last, season
and retarded by the bad weather
conditions OF last winter.
The known Improvements to be
made during the coming summer
will assure employment to large
force CT woraingmen and will ere
ate a good business season for the
merchants.
One big business deal reported re-
Gently was the purchase ny the Far
mers' Bank OF the two business lots
adjoining the corner property of
Leslie Hawker & Company. While
as yet there has been no definite
plans made by the Farmers Bank
ia regard to building soon on lis
newly acaulred property, II Is known
that such plans are being discussed
in general way Ny the officers of
the bank.
Another real estate deal made re-

And is Working a Bluff Now
to Get Hand Plants to
Shut Down.

| PITTSBuRG. Pa. Mar. 2O-The
commoaer and Giassworker says
that in the window glass trade buy;
ing has been of hand TO mouth
character during the last week and
a comparatively small amount OF
new business was placed. a gentle
man or color appears to be con-
cealed in the wood pile, and the
smoking out process will doubtless
develop his exact hiding place. That
another wireless tip has been passed
along the line by representa-
lives o. the big machine interests is
charged BY those in close touch
with trade developments.
Another grandstand play is an
ticipated and the only thing that
may bring About change IN plans
on the part OF the American Win
dow Glass Company's policy map
pers. is the fear, which, by the way,
is we'll grounded, that the workers
officials are determined to meet every
I,moye made by the machine inter-
ests. A we'll defined rumor was
current in trade circles that the play
would be pulled of the part OF this
week. but in view OF the above, 1T
will probably be deferred.
There are many in the trade who
think blum ig being worked in or
der to get hand factories out of the
way as competitors before summer
so that a nice "liilling" can be made
by the American, hut there will he
plenty Of hand plants in line at the
finish no matter what the situation
may develop in the meantime.
With all the pretentions that have
been made in the past by the Amer
lean along the line OF preserving
1.-THE market 1t is freely charged by
I hand plant operators that repre-
sentatives of that company in GER
tain localities have tipped of the
buying trade in the matter OF hold
ling on for lower price play by the
machine interests, with the natural.
result that very little business has
been placed and trade conditions
have become very unstable as re-
suit.
This, in the face of the loud
mouthings concerning fair play,
holding up prices, maintaining sta
bility, ETC, libitum, ad nauseam
shows up the situation in its true
colors and demonstrates conc!u-
sively how much stock can he taken
in the representations made in the
recent past by the machine peop.e.
The game is certainly being played
for all lis is worth and not an angle
has ibeen overlooked thus far in the
effort to handicap the hand fac
tories.
Persistent runors are current to
the effect that number OF hand
plants will be closed down shortly
and the Kansas field is mentioned
particularly in this respect. How
ever, in view OF the shortage OF
skilled workmen in Ohio, Pennsyl-
vania and West Virginia it is hardly
likely that many manufacturers will
care to take chance on losing the
services OF their men, especially
blowers and gatherers. in which de-
partment the scarcity is most mark
ed. A few hand plants may
be, c.osed down, but 1T is hardly
likely that there will 3e a general
movement OF this character.

city government in keeping the
people informed on the passage

lately. Only few days ago we
were informed that all such or

and did publish the dog tax and

we published the latter at half,

that the poll tax and real and

for the information of the tax
payers, to publish such matters
we can see no good reason why
Hayti should depart from that
custom. This paper has worked
