GASOLINE PLANT AT oNA
is PLAN OF UNITED FUEL,

1t is very likely that the Unied Fuel
Gas company will shortly commence
construction OF a gasoline plant near
ona, Cabell-co.. to make gasoline out
OF natural gas, according to authori-
tative and semi official statements yes
terday.
1t is said the plant will cost in the
neighborhood OF 100000 and will be
capable OF extracting gasoline from
40, 00O, 900 cubic feet OF natural gas per
day. Should construction work be
commenced at the earliest possible mo-
ment it would probably be several
months before the plant is in opera
ton. '& t
This will be the third gasoline plant
of the United Fuel company Few real
lie how important this industry has
become, but it is said the United Fuel
mad Columbia have invested more than
$4,000 In these plants. With gasoline
continuing to soar in price this method
of making it is expected to prove prof
liable. Taking the ingredients of gaso-
line out OF natural gas, contrarily
enough, Is said by chemists not to in
lure but improve the gas for fuel.
The United Fuel has now almost fin
ished plants at Kermit and at Sandy
vile between Spencer and Ravens
wood.
The plant at ona will be located on
the old 16-inch line from Roane-co.,
and will be operated by gas from Ka-
nawha and Putnam, Turkey creek and
fields.-Herald-D Dispatch.

The following is specimen Of the
kind of patriotism and loyalty that is
needed to be exhibited at the present
time:
Washington, April 2s.-There were
many signs of a reaction following the
bombardment of Congress with tele-
grams demanding that members shall
do their utmost to prevent break with
Germany.
Representatives Allen and Longworth
of Cincinnati, heard to-day from more
than fifty Cincinnatians who take a
strong American attitude in the inter-
national crisis. One prominent German,
a Republican, of Cincinnati, writes as
follows:
Il have been asked twice within this
week to unite with the kilograms which
are being sent to Washington and re-
piled each time that IL the Germans
would prepare telegram addressed to
the Kaiser saying that the Germans in
the United States are Americans first,
last and all the time such telegram
would receive my signature.
81 also said that it appeared to me
that there is a species of disloyalty to
the President and that the problem at
Washington was being made more diff
ficult by reason of the fact that an i'm
preston was created in Germany that
this country is being divided"

Cash IN ADVANCE
Plan TO Be ADOPTED
On October 18th, 1916, the Big Sandy
News Subscription List Will be on a
New Basis, and the Paper will be
Sent Only until the Date Paid in Ad-
vance.
INCREASED COST OF PRoDuc-
TIoN FORCES THIS CHANGE

As announced in the above headline
the Big Sandy News will change its
policy in handling the subscription list
We are compelled either TO increase the
subscription to $3.50 per year or to take
steps that will stop all leaks and waste
We hope by doing the latter 10 keep
the subscription price at one dollar
We are making announcement OF our
new policy several months in advance
of its adoption so that all our friends
and subscribers will have ample time
TO get on the new basis.
1t has been customary from time
immemorial" almost, for country pa
pers to extend credit TO subscribers and
to continue sending the paper until
death. poverty, disease, hopeless de-
linqucncy, or an earthquake caused a
break This is bad business and often
times very unsatisfactory. Some peo-
pie get the impression that the pub
Usher is trying to force the paper on
them. This is one thing the publisher
OF the Big Sandy News can truthfully
say he has never intended nor had any
desire to do. In soliciting we do not
even insist strongly upon anyone sub.
scribing for the paper, because we new
er want TO push 1t upon any person.
Our efforts are directed chiefly to max
Ing a paper worth the subscription
price Nevertheless, a few people seem
to think the paper is being forced up
on them when II continues beyond the
date paid for.
On the other hand, we have had
number OF subscribers to resent our
action in stopping the paper at the ex-.
piration OF the period paid for, saying
II was a reflection on their credit. This
is the source from which we antici-
pate most of the trouble that is likely
to come in changing TO a strictly cash
in advance system. But when the
change is made 1t will be absolutely
necessary to enforce II impartially.
The mailing list will be in charge Of
an employee who doesn't know any
better than to stop every subscription
at It's paid expiration.
Although as above stated. the prop
osition has two sides, we believe our
friends and patrons will like the new
system better. We ask their kind CO.
operation in establishing this more
like plan.

CHARLEY DOOM OBJECTS
Red" Says Moran Did Not Win
Pennant With Club He Left.

Charley Doom objects to the
statement that Pat Moran won the
pennant last year with the same club
that Charley had when he was the
Quaker leader. 1T was very far
from being the identical team that
/ had, said Doom. I'm the first
place he had three-quarters of an
infield that turned out TO be a great
Improvement over those / had. He
also had an additional outfielder of
class and several ambitious young
sters who were not absolutely i'm
perviOus to the installation of organ
ization on the team. Pat was also
free from the handicap of having
several men on the team who
thought they should have been ap-
pointed manager when 1 was Pat
is my friend and he will always have
NY best wishes, but he could never
have won a pennant with the team
that I had when was managing the
Phillies. He had just enough addi-
ticnal strength to put il over
