Business Outlook.
It the business outlook for West
Virginia be judged by the unpreced-
ented rush OF Industrial activities
Throughout the whole country, there
has never been time since the birth
of the mountain state when confidence
has had such solid foundation as now.
West virsinia has taken her place
FOR q large share Of profits and ex-
Ipansion in the demands created by
the European war. The great Dup oht
powder company has entreed the
lstate and viii spend over half q mill
lion in magazines and accessory sstruc-

lplants have shipped thain loads of
their products to foreign countries
within the past sixty days. the result

more than 3,O00:000,000 bushels.

increased rates on coal shipments
from this state to points west Of Pitts
: burg. The whole state has been
aroused in the fight against this, seem
ing Determinations; trainmen, civic
organizations, fraternal societies and
the citizenship generally have Joined
in the battle for justice. The. approval
Of the proposed rates hby the Inter-
state Commerce Commission not only
would tend to cripple coal industry
in,this state but would also have a
bad effect in discouraging investment
in coal lands In the coal counties, a
