The production of natural gas WeBt Virginia, which in teu years has increased in annual val- J® fr °m $25,000 to nearly $3,000,- 000, is having a marked effect upon the industries of the state. A correspondent of the Manufac turers’ Record calls attention this week to one of the most interest ing phases of this development in the stimulus given to the glass trade through the cheapness of gas. A score of towns have with in the last few months secured factories or have taken steps to attract investors in glass works. One of the latest enterprises looks to the investment of about $100,- 000 at Weston, in the center of three-cent gas, near which a well with a daily capacity of millions of cubic feet, began to spout last week. The authorities, of the place have begun negotiations with the owners of works at Mor gantown for a duplication of their plant at Weston. This plan in volves the construction by the town of a large bridge giving ac cess from the town to the site of the proposed plant, die erection by citizens upon 150 lots to be bought by them of cottages cost ing not less than $300 apiece, to be rented by the glass oompany for its employes. It is believed that these requirements will be met and that before cold weather arrives the deal will have been consummated. In other towns, such as New Martinsville, Came ron, Huntington. Clarksburg, Fairmont and Point Pleasaut, glass manufacturing is attracting the attention of investors and 1902 promises to record the estab lishment of a number of modern plants using gas for fuel. In the southwest the develop ment of oil from the Beaumont field for fuel purposes is being pushed through transportation companies and industries in near by regions. But it is not stop ping there as is indicated by the loading this ,w?ek at Port Arthur of a large oil steamer with capaci ty of between 55,000 and 60,000 barrels of oil for abroad. During the first eight days of November 68,219 barrels of oil were shipped by rail from Beaumont to more or less distant points. But the de mand for this fuel is not to be measured by the shipments, for the equipment for the transporta tion of oil by rail is comparative ly speaking, rather meagre, the difficulty in getting oil cars being similar to that experienced by the lumber interests in the same re gion. So scarce is the,tank equip ment that one of the companies ej Beadmont field k-an order for 500 cars to be delivered within three or. four months. The discovery of oil at Beaumont, has within ten months increased the popula tion of that place from 10,000 to 2Q!,0Q0 and there is not a house to be rented in the city. The history of the rise of indus try at such centres as Richmond, Va., Charlotte, N. O., Mt. Pleas ant, Tenii., Cedartown, Ga., and Birmingham Ala., where, again and again there has' been a de mand for permanent homes, for an increasing population followed by an expansion of building oper ations, is being repeated on a somewhat more rrpid scale at Beaumont. It is an indication of stable prosperity for all parts of the South. Macon Telegraph; Secretary Gage is reported to have said while in Denver recent ly that he had twenty positions in banks to dispose of, each worth $25,000 a year, but that the men who secured them would have to ‘young” and “capable.” 111UL1U UIJUU v/uw •operating’ 1 in'; tdic plriced'last week be both The latter quality goes without saying, and the former arrests at tention. We have here another of the multiplying reminders that this is an age of j^oung men. The saying is true especially of this country. It is much less true of England and the countries of Eu rope, and in this circumstance- may no doubt be found one im portant reason >vhy America forg es ahead so rapidly. In the Brit ish parliament it is still necessary for a man to have the experience of half a century behind him be fore he can secure serious atten tion, but in this couutry we have a president who is only forty- three and many another young man of great . ability and wide fame in a variety of callings. Mr. Schwab, of the steel trust, for ex ample, who is reputed to cash a check for a million every year, is not yet forty. • Even a generation ago this wits in many respects a young man’s country, a fact brought out very clearly by an English writer some time ago, when discussing “youth versus age in generalship.” He attributed the slowness of the campaign in South Africa partly to the advanced age of the Eng lish generals who had been sent there, pointing out that “Stone wall” Jackson was 31 years youn ger than Lord Roberts, and “Jeb” Stuart 83 years younger than Gen. Buller. Among Northern gener- erals, Grant was only forty when he t commanded at Shiloh; Sheri dan was thirty-three when he took command of the cavalry of the army of the Potomac; and Sher man was only fort.y-four when he marched through Georgia. This is contrast indeed with Gen. Bul ler at sixty-one, Gen. Gataore at fifty-seven, Lord Methuen at fifty- five, Gen. Clery at sixty-two, Gen. Warren at sixty, Gen. White at sixty-five and Lord Roberts at sixty-eight. Lord Kitchener was put down as fifty. As the assertion attributed to Secretaey Gage shows youth is nowadays demanded particularly in business and it is not -merely a matter of energy and vigor but of courage and confidence. It is not that the older mdn are less wise — they are wiser—but that time has taken from them in great part those qualities which are so nee essary for success in this hurrying age. The demand for adaptive youth and vigor in preference to age and experience is, , in fact, so positive that he who has not made a comfortable berth for himself by the time he is fifty is likely to come to want. In looking fo,r a new position after that age his chances would be improyed by shaving off his beard, dying his hair and cultivating vivacity and physical activity. Therefore, let the young man work hard and bring out the b.est that is in him while he may. \ Our Prices are Low. Our Goods are Right.
