WARSAW HASNOT FALLEN.

~ EPoRTS last week gave the impression that the
Germans would be in Warsaw within a day or
y two; but the Russians are still holding on with
all the grim determination that they possess and thus
far been able to keep the Teutons from gaining &C
tual possession Of the city although the German lines
around Warsaw Tightening and seems that it will
be only question Of time until the Russians will have
TO surrender 10 the superior forces.
The hardest fighting in the attack the Polish metro
polls has shifted from the south line to the north While
the Germans still have the advantage in the fact that
they still continue gain ground, the Russians still
hold control three useful strategic railroads going
out from Ostroenka The latest success OF the Germans
has brought them within Is miles of North Warsaw but
the Polish capital has second line of defense in this
direction 1t now likely that the Germans will
experience some little trouble in getting into Warsaw.
after having reached the outskirts Of the city The last
few miles will be the hardest miles of all to gain, as
the Russians will fight desperately in their last stand

The truth Is that the extent OF the war orders taken
by American Industrial has been deliberately
magnifed dozen or twentyfold by the Wall street
gamblers for the purpose Of fleeing the stockbuyng
public. And how well their unscrupulous tactics are
succeeding indicated by the advance in the socaed
war stocks some OF Which have been jumped from 80 or
40 to $50 or 200 in three months in many cases
in the face Of public declarations by their directors that

Editorial Comment
on Current Subjects
AN EXAMPLE OF CHEAP GAS.

Huntington claims with some show
Of statistical proof. now to be West
Virginia's first city. having passed
Wheeling in the growth OF population.
However much we know that Hunting
tons numerical growth has been
brought about by unstinted annexation
Of outlying territory. much OF il coun'
try fields. it is certain that Hunting
ton recently has gone through a re-
markable development
Searching for the reason we find that
Huntington has added largely to its
population by the addition of ten new
factories within a few years. These
factories have added 1900 workmen
and these 1900 are taken to mean a
total addition Of 5000 persons TO the
population. Seaching for the reason
for the new ten factories we find tina:
about two years ago Huntington Oh
tanned five cent gas for large indus
trial users.
This furnishes a reason why the
cheaper gas committee OF the Board
of Commerce should push thoroughly
its investigation of the possibility Of
bringing cheap gas to ParkerSburI;.
1t has been proposed that citizen
company be organized here. on much
the lines of the one in Huntington.
and it is set forth that rich gas fields
are not a great distance from Parkers
burg and their invisible fuel can be
piped here easily.
Cheaper gas. and especially cheaper
gas for factories, The News believes IS
one of the prime necessities Of Par
kersburg. Unless we get it there IS
less chance OF realizing the vision OF
Parkersburg as a great industrial cen
ter, the vision that is promised by 9th
Il r advantages. And unless we get 1t,
We may find ourselves outstripped by
cities that we now regard as younger
MISUNDERSTANDING News.
The News is quite right. Cheap gas
has been an important factor in max
| ing the Huntington of the present, as
It will be in making the Huntington OF
the future But Huntington's cheap
gas is the product of the aggressiv"
and loyal spirit which has brought SO
many other things to Huntington. The
business men of Huntington never
took a more far-reaching step than
when they provided the city with an
adequate and practically ineXhaustible
supply Of gas with binding provisions
that it be supplied at the very lowest
prices to manufacturers and domestic
consumers. 1t was an unprecedented
and almost a daring thing to do. But
It was done and Huntington is reap
ING a rich reward in the form OF practi-
cal benefits. As long as the gas sup.
ply holds ont anywhere in the United
States Huntington will be able TO Of
fer it at the very lowest price, because
the gas company which supplies Hunt
ington is fortified with an immense
area of gas bearing territory proven
by thorough tests to be fabulously
rich in the invisible fluid. Huntington
would finally have outstripped Wheel
ing regardless Of the advantages which
have accrued from her position as
city offering cheaper fuel. But the
