The West Virginian Delivered to
Suburban Homes for a Small Amount

The Suburban Subscription Rate of $10O per month
only Zoe more than the City Subscription Rate and
this margin is quickly consumed by the many extra
handling costs. In order to send THE WEST VIR-
@GINIAN to Suburban readers each evening the
newspapers must be wrapped, delivered to the
street cars transported to the suburban agent and
then distributed into the homes Compared to this
ouf carriers who deliver within the city limits get
the newspapers from the pressroom and start right
out. There is no wrapping, street transporting
or other extra handling. The price Of $1.OO per
month is in reality very moderate hundreds of
Suburban readers know THE WEST VIRGINIAN
is worth far and order it regularly in advance
from our Suburban agents.

OPERATORS AGREE TO COOPERATE WITH STRIKE COMMITTEE

II IS ISV|ENED.RERE II
Alumnus Promises There
Will Be a Hot Time If
1t Goes Far.

What's back of this story out Of
Morgantown about an upheayal in
athletics on account of two games
scheduled for 1920 on neutral
grounds? Does it mean that behind
it all is an effort to knock Harry
Stansbury out of his job after he has
done so much at West Virginia the
last few years? Is the old hatred of
Wesleyan and Stansbury. because he
came from Wesleyan, coming to the
front again?'
These are a few of the questions
put to a very prominent Fairmont
university man today by a, West vir-
ginian reporter. The man to whom
the questions were addressed does
not want his name brought into the
controversy at this time, but he has
very clear idea Of just what the sit
uation is.
II don't know what the outcome
will be-" he stated, II don't know
whether an effort will be made and a
successful one to get Harry out OF
the dictatorship or not, but l do
know that II he goes there will be 4
row-a dang big row-over it.
"Stansbury has made good job of
it at Morgantown and deserves cred
1t. / think there are three or four
things back of it all. In the first
place, Morgantown people are little
selfish. They do not want any games
played in Fairmont or the southern
end of the state. They sincerely be-
lieve that the university was created
for Morgantown primarily. In the
second place, the business people
want as many games as possible at
Morgantown to get the crowds. This
is of course natural instinct. In
the third place, people owning real
estate down there like to see the big
games come to that city and for all
the glory of the state team to shine
on, Morgantown alone as much as
possible.
"And then there is the old sore
spot about Wesleyan andtthe fact that
Harry Stansbury came from Wesley
an. Harry has been as loyal as could
be to the university and has worked
hard for its interests, but there are
some who still can not forget that
Stansbury put Wesleyan on the map
before he took up the burden OF q
like job for West Virginia.
Some years ago when West Vir-
ginia was terribly in the rut, several
alumni in this section got behind a
movement to wake up the alumni
and get the school back on the map,
and as the movement grew and
spread it was realized that man of
Stansbury's type as an athletic direc-
tor and publicity man was needed to
get people to understand that West
Virginia university was real school
and to develop athletics at the insti-
tuition.
"Stansbury was secured and took
up his work in the face of terrible
odds. When he first went there many
of the students and town folk would
not speak to him. However, he kept
on digging away. until today every
one knows of the prowess Of West
Virginia and she stands with Yale
Harvard, Princeton, Pitt and w. & J
on equal footing.
mo. 1 don't want to get into the
argument at the present time, hui
mark my words, II Stansbury goes
there will be some row over it.
SIN brief, I believe the whole stu
alton is just a slap at Wesleyan
through Stansbury."

- This was decided on yesterday following 3. conference between the representatives .of the Montgomery and Birmingham bodies. The increased rates are scheduled to go in effect December 30.
 TREMENDOUS INCREASE
 The Birmingham and Montgomery bodies claim that neither city has been afforded an opportunity to be heard in the matter of establishing these rates and that there is no precedent for them in any cases heretofore heard by the com mission. Alarm is expressed at the tire mendous increases proposed' and a full and complete hearing is requested. The telegram sent to the interstate commerce commission reads:

 If these rates are permitted to become effective they will create irrepara.ble damage. Further, said rates have never been before the commission in any pro ceeding and certainly never brought into issue in the Murfreesboro case, Meridian
