"All bands save Butler was the spir it of the lilacs meeting of the citizens of Butler in the Court room last Friday evening. The stagnation of the oil pro during interests, caused by a 83 ceat market, and the threatened annihila tion of our plate gla-s plant by the Tru-t have brought to all a realization of the fact that something must be done to encourage the establishmen tof more in dustries here, in order to retain our population and increase it if possible. The meeting of last Friilav evening was the first one of the kind generally attended by the men of the town ; the speakers were in earnest; a Board of Di rectors was elected.and he'p was offered by local capitalists: Several men of means of the town have offered SI,OOO each R) aid in establishing legitimate industries here, baf no fakes need ap plv. The Board is now iu shtpe to a-.d genuine affairs, either by donation or by taking stock, and asks for proposi tions either from loi - al inventors an I mechanics, or from outsiders. At the meeting of the B »:ird, Tues day evening. President Loighner select ed several committees consisting ea ■ 1 of two niemljers of the B >anl an 1 on ? outside member. Another meeting will be held next Tuesday evening, and the work will be done systematically. Butler is as desirable a town to live in as there is in this climate. It has several miles of paved streets; it is well watered, and sewered, and lighted; it has first class stores and markets; it is connected with all the great railroad systems that pass through the western part of the state, and above all its .?up ply of natural gas is unlimited and i.v exhanstable. There is enough idle m.iney in bank in Bntler to start a dozen different kinds of profitable institutions,all that is need ed is genius and confidence; and any body and everybody who knows a good thing should perfect his plans and 9nb mit them to the Board, immediately. THE MEETING. Nearly fonr hundred Bntlerites, the Germania band, and lots of enthusiasm and s< nsible talk as to the l»est way to boom Butler combined to make a very lively Board of Trade meeting last Fri day evening. If the spirit of that;meet ing is kept alive it means much good to Bntler, Pettr Schenk acted as chair man and he,. Alex Mitchell. Levi M. Wise, and Ira McJunkin Eaqs. and Dr. J. M. Leighner, .T V Ritts, Frank An derson, Major C E Anderson, L. C. Wick. W T Rnmberger and others made remarks, the gist of which was abont this: Bntler needs additional in dustries to .keep the town alive, we must get them; it takes money, we must raise the money and all go down into our pockets in doing so, pull to - gether for Butler. A committee canvassed the audience! and fifteen new members were added to the Board, which numbers considerably over one hundred. The election for di rectors resulted as follows; First Ward, L. C. Wick, W. H. Lar kin, J. H. Harper; Second I. J. McCand less,, C. N. Boyd, Frank Kohler: Third Peter Schenk, Wm. Campbell, J. M. Leitfhnei; Fourth J. V. Ritts, J. Kauf mail, John Younkins; Fifth J. H. Trontman, L. S. McJunkin, Geo. Shiav er. After the open meeting the directors met and elected the following officers. Pres. J. M. Leighner; V. Pres. C. X. Boyd and J. H. Trontman; Sec'y Geo. Sheiver, Treas. Win. Campbell. L. C. Wick, I. J. McCandless and Frank Koh ler Esq. were appointed H ways and means committee to take practical steps in the matter of raising money. Along with the great number of offers from fake factories who are mere swin dlers, the Board of Trade receives fre quent offers of a reliable and practical businesss nature, and if it has some money at its disposal sainu gjod indus tries can be brought into the town. Steps to raise funds, perhaps by the monthly payment plan suggested by Mr. Wick or by direct donations as sug gested by Mr. Kitts, will be at once be taken. The local outlook is really not so bad as at first sight it appears. While Standard oil prices knock the bottom out of that .business, the Plate Glass works on Saturday demonstrated that it is here to stay and iti a most prosperous condition. The planing And flour mills and nearly all other local industries are finding plenty of business, the construction of a new railroad which is to run through But ler county has been commenced; and judging from present indications, we would say that more coal and limestoue territory will be developed in Butler county during 1898 than in any five years together of its previous history.

In a decision lately written by Judge Stowe, of Pittsburg, in an oil-lease case he says: "It seems to me that when a lease is dependent for its continuance upon its pnxlucing sufficient to pay. and a certain portion of such product is to be given the lessor as rent, the lessee is bound to operate continuously and with reasonable diligence, and a failure to do so for an unreasonable length of time, thereby preventing the lessor from obtaining any rent, should be held as a forfeiture of the lessee's rights un der the lease, if the lessor chooses to take advantage of it.

President of the Pitts burg Plate Glass Co.. which is general ly spoken of as the Plate Glass Trust. His evidence killed his case and he withdrew his petition, but the evidence was taken by "two stenographers and will l>e used bv the defense in the pro ceedings to foreclose the second mortg age bonds, and on Monday the Stan dard Plate Glass company, by its at torney. James R. Sterrett, filed a pre cipe in a damage suit against John Pit carin, president of the Pittsburg Plate Glass company. The statement says the concerns have been at odds, an ef fort to get the Standard to join in a combination having failed. Then an attempt was made in the Butler county court to have a receiver appointed for the Standard company. It did not avail It was believed that the Pitts burg company was behind the move ment. The damage suit resulted the trouble. The directors of the Standard Plate Glass Company are preparing an ans wer to the suit instituted by tin- Fidel ity Title and Trust Company, of Pitts burg, for the foreclosure of the second mortgage bonds which the plaintiff company holds as trustee.
