Second Open Letter to the
People Of West Virginia

When we put forth our first Open Letter we had
no idea that such great numbers would accept our
invitation to write and tell us what they thought
about the oil and gas business. The ink scarcely
y dry before hundreds Of letters and postal cards
commenced pouring in and they are still coming. 10
analyze and classify these letters that this
could be prepared with care welcome task.
Above all else these letters proved that the
people of West Virginia have in high degree that
American characteristic sturdy love of fair play,
however willing they may be toN argue question.
About fifty per cent Of those who wrote wanted
to see the oil and gas companies keep developing
the resources of the state in fair and inst
ton by the state.
About thirty per cent disagreed with one or
other of the points in the Open Letter but were fair
minded enough to acknowledge the benefits that have
accrued to the state from the production Of oil and
gas
About fifteen per cent disagreed fatty with our
views or said they lacked information, declared
they were not interested because they outside
the gas belt
The remaining five per cent offered oil and gas
territory, supplies, asked for work, wanted to
know what the Open Letter meant had complaint
ON their service asserted that gas rates high
enough or too high without other comment A scant
halfscore abusive
All communications were replied to except few
which were unsigned, or signatures blotted post
office address omitted that if you wrote and have
not been answered. it must be for one of these
reasons.
Many asked questions, the principal ones being
the following, which we herewith

or in future advertisement
Belington progressive. [volume] (Belington, W. Va.) 1912-1927, 1914-03-19
Q-WHY DO YOU NEED TO RAISE THE
RATES?

A-Because the company is entitled to interest
the money invested, to get back the capital
invested within reasonable time, and some COM
pensation for taking the risk Of the business. Any
company going into any business that Is not
permanent, expects to enough to pay back lis
Investment with interest on the same while infesf II

the chances Of the business otherwise he would lend
his money on security or mortgage or buy Govern
l4sllt or other bonds

Q-WHAT rs YOUR PURPOSE IN DISCUSS
ING THE GAS BUSINESS WITH THE PUBLIC?

A(Taken from letter written by Mr. John
State Scnator) 1--WE want all the people of the
state to get interested in the gas business and learn
much they about it from any source which
is reliable Only an informed public is capable Of
taking Of it's own best interests in public mat
tiers, and we feel that is so clear and fair
that it can be frankly entrusted to such public for
solution. Thus you motive is a combined
one-for the good of the state and for own good
well, because believe that what is best for the
people is also best for us, and vice versa
Belington progressive. [volume] (Belington, W. Va.) 1912-1927, 1914-03-19
Answers to Principal Questions
Asked in The Letters

Q-You have shown us-the people of West
Virgina-that hundreds of millions If dollars have
been distributed among us by the oil and gas people
in the quarter century past for labor, royalties,
rentals, timber teamng, machinery, materials,
boarding and various other items; that taxes paid
by oil and gas interests amount to enough to
wipe off the Virginia debt in years. that great
industrial development, new towns and cities and
many other advantages which have state
have followed the discovery and production of oil
and gas Now give us the figures the other side
of the ledger:-WHAT HAVE YOU MADE OUT
OF THE BUSINESS?
A-Since the organization Of our company, our
stockholders have received little less than 10 per
cent annual dividends interest the money which
they have invested This is less than the legal rate
J Of interest and they could more If the money
were invested In mortgages. They have of their
capital paid back and have no sinking fund out of
which to pay it back. It is our intention,
the will justify it, to establish sinking
fund to reimburse our stockholders for the money
advanced, which you will admit is no more than fair
to them.
o-DOES THE GAS BUSINESS YIELD A
MARGIN OF PROFIT LARGER THAN OTHER
BUSINESSES HAVING THE SAME INVEST
MENT AND RISKS?
Att does not In fact it does not return as
large profits other businesses, where there are
practically no large hazards or risks attached No
other business has the amount Of uncertainty
as the gas business with such comparatively small
profit.
Q-wHY DO YOU NEED TO RAISE THE
RATES?
Belington progressive. [volume] (Belington, W. Va.) 1912-1927, 1914-03-19

A-'Thc Manufacturers Light & Heat Company
has maintained any Hobbies in Charleston for
the purpose Of preventing the Legislature from pac
ing tax on production transportation Of oil and
gas or for any other purpose, and has never spent
penny for any such purpose
Gumshoe methods do not appeal to us. When
any public matter affecting the interests Of this
pany is impending we will bring it out for open
discussion with the people, as the soveregns of the
state through advertisements in the newspapers like
doing We believe this to be both efficient
and honorable.
We would here point out to those over-wise
critics who condemn us because we have gone to the
people in this open, public way, their absurd neon
sistency when they say to sWhy do you publish
these Open Letters and take your case to the people ~
and then in the same breath accuse us Of having
lobby in interests to influence the legislature at
Charleston. In other words, is it fair or square to
deny the right to present anywhere,
either to the public to the legislature, either
publicly or privately?
Belington progressive. [volume] (Belington, W. Va.) 1912-1927, 1914-03-19
SERVING THE RESOURCES WHICH ARE NOW
BEING FAST DEPLETED WITHOUT SUBSTAN
TIAL BENEFIT TO THE STATE?

A--As already has been shown (Which the qlles-
ton manifestly disregards) the state has received
and is receiving enormously substantial benefits and
returns, possibly greater than the oil and gas people
West Virginia not only has the unrestricted use
of this most convenient fuel and light product at an
average rate considerably lower than her neighbors,
but in addition the lion s share of the money received
from the sale of her gas in Ohio and Pennsylvania
back to her through expenditure in the search
for, production and purchase Of more gas.
1t the state wants to commit itself to the policy
of restricting the production is it ready to pay the
land owner his lease rentals while the gas is being
held for the benefit Of future generatonsg
If the state is not ready to commit itself to this
policy by putting up the money for the benefit of all
its people, what just right would it have to ask the
gas company to tie up its money in the pursuit Of
this polcyg
In either case wouldn't it be rather hard on the
landowner, who might be up against it financially
because he couldn't lease his land derive any
money from that source now, even though it might
benefit his posterity?
Of course, all waste should be stopped. Economy
in use is cardinal point of conservation.
Belington progressive. [volume] (Belington, W. Va.) 1912-1927, 1914-03-19

Ave are using ana paying Tor advertising
space in the newspapers Of West Virginia because
this is the best way to state views to all the
people of the state. We able thus to talk over
affairs with the entire population which we could
do in no other way. By United States mail the
cheapest it could be done would be many times as
expensive if the address of every person in the
state could be obtained, which it can't Surely our
way of doing it is far from extravaganza
As for subsidizing the press" that is a cry
old as journalism and used only by persons whose
idea Of free press is one which prints only their
side Of the story mentions the other side only in
abuse. Since we commenced this advertising we
have noted that the newspapers have opened their
columns freely to discussion Of all sides Of the
question West Virginia newspapers accepting and
printing our advertisements reserve the right to
make such editorial comment upon them as they
see fit. We have asked nothing more than this and
newspaper has offered more.
But this is question we think the newspapers
themselves can answer better than we. Ask them
if they sell themselves when they sell advertising
space to an advertiser.

ting very successful oil operations
in the ancient land of the Pharaohs.
For some months, it is stated, the
weekly output from several of the
company's. wells had all aggregated
only a few hundred tons, the best
being 5000 News now comes that
one of these wells, being deepened,
has struck oil in great volume, the
flow being estimated at $4,000 bar
rels daily. The well is under full
control and is doing about $4,000
barrels day.
A refinery has been erected at Suez
in which the oil will be treated. The
refinery will be increased as oc'
casion warrants.
Hitherto, Egypt has been obliged
to import oil for her railways and
factories at high prices. Should
the present oil yield be maintained
she will be in position to produce
her own fuel oil supply. In the Su
dan there is wide field for the
sale of fuel oil Also Egypt, being
the gateway between Europe and
the Orient, occupies an excellent
position to sell oil to passing vessels
