Vigorously in the Case Of

Hon. T. c. Townsend. former State
Tax Commissioner. and now engaged
In the practice OF law in Charleston
was visitor in the city yesterday
Mr.. Townsend has been engaged by a
number OF citizens OF Hancock county
10 conduct a proceeding for the re-
covery OF moneys due from former
Sherin Wilkin. as shown by the re-
port OF the auditors OF the Tax Com.
missioner's Department. He spent
several days in Hancock county this
week, and went over the situation
thoroughly. Speaking TO a reporter OF
the lntelligencer, Mr.. Townsend said:
The audit in Hancock county shows
greater discrepancies In the accounts
OF the Sheriff. than in any other coun.
~ for It's size in the State Of West
virginia. The total amount claimed
from the former Sheriff is about S24.
10000, and the audit shows not only
great deal OF laxity in the settle.

OF the transactions can hardly be ex.
planned on any other ground than
criminal intent"
IL is understood that vigorous act
ion TO recover the moneys alleged TO
be due will be taken. in the near
future.

being re-established Industry is
more active than at any time since
1907, and there is every prospect for
a continuance.
Good times are more important 10
the American business men than
noisy defamation. The opportunity
to do an honest days work at good
wages is OF more Importance TO the
American working man than the
clamor about his rights by men who
are only interested in his rights for
the purpose OF getting themselves
into office.
The administration OF VIM. II. Taft
has brought prosperity to the Ameri-
can people. II has established safe
and orderly business conditions. Il
has defined the law Il has protected
and developed American industry. To.
day the United States treasury holds
more gold than the Bank of England
and the Bank OF France combined.
Are the American people going 10
throw away these sound. solid and
substantial things for the froth OF
agitators and the clamor OF ambitious
politicians?

A Great Fuel Consumer.

More fuel is consumed in the city Of
Pittsburgh and it's immediate vicinity
and more coal is shipped to and
through the Pittsburgh district than
in any other district in the world, ac-
cording to Edward w. Parker Of the
United States geological survey. With
a population of about one-ninth Of that
of Greater New York the consumption
Of coal alone In Pittsburgh Is nearly
equal to that Of the much larger city.
Greater New York consumed in 1911
approximately 100000 short tons,
and Pittsburgh used about 16,5OO,0OO
short tons. But Pittsburgh consumes
several million tons of coke and con-
siderable quantities Of natural gas,
which, added to the coal consumption.
gives that city a good lead owe New
York as a fuel consumer.
