THE PRICES WILL BE REASONABLE Anil tho Itiiolllgonccr wa* Might n* Co tlio Halo Agreed upon, $.1n Ton through clio Hummer Monthu?I.ako loo Hcaroo and CoHtly?Soma I'ooplo liuyln/; tho Mado Articlo Co Ntorc. Tho conflicting etutomonts as to tho prico of ico tho coming season naturally vruro road with u groat deal of interest by tho consumer*. Tho prices of arti cles of household consumption always intnre.it thoso who havo to buy thorn, and thin year this is for (rood cuueo par ticularly ao, for almost ovoryboay fools tho necessity of making ovary dollar no as far ay possible. An Intclliouncuh reporter last night aakod Mr. C. W. Connor, of tho "Whooling Ico and Stor age Company, what vvaB tho real fact a9 to tho prico tho company proposes to churiro tho coming summon fcaid Mr. Connor: "Tito Intelligence was right about that. Wo have fixed tho prico of ico ut tho factory ut ?5 n ton through tho four hottest month?, June, July, August and fc'optombor. 1'or tho other eight mouths of thj> year it ia to bo $1 a ton. Last year wo sold it at S3 a ton. Lako ico then Hold at 75 cents a ton at tho lake. I bought some lake ico ai low as $1.73 laid down here. This year lake ico is | worth $2 a ton at the lake, and all there is is what was carried over from last year. Tho freight hero is $1.10 a ton. Tako tho shrinkage and tlio extra baud I lin^ and our rate is choapor than thut. Wo havo sold some at $3.75 a ton to per sons who pack it. Tomorrow wo ship sixty tons by bargo to Sardis." Mr. Connor showed a number of lot tery from largo ico doalors on tho lakes, all of whom eav tho supply iu short. Wisconsin ico ia oflered iu litty carload lots, laid down at Bridgeport, at $1.75 ft ton, ao that tho $4 rato hero is much choapor. Anyexperienceddealer.hoHaya, would rather pay $1 a ton more at tho factory thau pack and handle and stand tho shrinkage. Tho retail dealers will thid year chargo 35 cents a hundred to the largest consumers, and GO ccuta to families who got but a few pounds a day, which does not sound like a very large prico. As to ths combino of tho Whooling and Arctic companion, Mr. Conner eays j it is simply a temporary and contingent agreement. After looking the situation over tho partios concerned werosatisfied there wat not at that timo an opening for two largo plants to run profitably. The Arctic compauy had alroady put in its cold storage plant in tho old Buttor lield malt house, and tho Wheeling company is filling that placo with ice for the other company. If at any timo thoro seems to be a demand for another ico mauufucturing plant, tho Arctic company will put it in. I Mr. Conner claims tho Whooling ice, being mado from pure well vrttor, doublo distilled at that, is a bettor ar ; tide and worth rnoro money than other ice, and being frozen harder and doliv I ered fresh from tho factory, with full weight, it is really economy for any dealer to handle it. ON TO BUN WOOD. Tho Mock Lcgldnlurc'ft Meeting To-mor row Kveu!ug. The mooting of tho Ilopubllcan mock legislature which ia to bo held in Ben wood to-morrow evening bids fair to even eclipse tho ono recently held in Elm Grove. Tho Ben wood pooplo are in tho throes of a hot political contest for tho control of the municipality, and for this reason alone tho mooting will attract a groat audionco. The com mittee in ciiargo of tho session, Messrs. \V. J. W. Cowden and A. It. Campbell, will havo prepared an attractive nro prammo when tho speaker calls tho meeting to order. It is oxpectod that the leaning oratorical light** ot tho body will bo on hand, and that tho discussion of tho questions of tho day will be fast and furious. "For a long timo I suffered with stomach and liver troubles, and could find no relief until I began to uso AVer's l'ills. 1 took thorn regularly for a few months, and my health was completoly restored."-D. W. Baine, Now Berne, N. C. Tore Milk. j This is to certify that on March 21, 1SD4, I made an examination of Thomas Montgomery's herd of dairy cows, in Ohio county, W. Va. I found said cows in tho host of health, and nro giving rich and wholesome milk. His cowb nro fed on tho best of feed and aro housed in a clean, warm stablo with good light and ventilation. 1 alio visited Milton Montgomery's herd of cows and fouud said cows in tho best ot health and are having good caro and tho best of feod; also housed in a cloan and comfortable 6table.
