Preface,
Morgantown became a place of importance in north- western Virginia before the Revolutionary war, and was a center for trade for the country miles in all directions. The trade, however, during the first half century of its existence was important only in comparison with other towns west of Laurel Hill. The volume of business transacted then, in comparison with the present, was very small. It consisted chiefly of dry goods, iron, salt, ginseng and furs. None of its great natural resources, which have since become such vast elements of wealth, had then been developed. In fact, no one then took any account of the coal which filled the hills on all sides, or of the oil and gas which were destined to play such important parts in the future. The full mean- ing of river transportation was not dreamed of, and the rail- road was then unknown. The slow and uncertain traffic which was carried on by horses and wagons, and by peddlers with their packs on their backs, was the best the people had. Even under these disadvantages, Morgantown was a place of importance.
About 1840 the building of the Northwestern turnpike from Winchester to Parkersburg hurt the town. The wagons which had been accustomed to come here to trade, from the present counties of Marion, Taylor and Barbour, ceased paying their visits. Morgantown did not grow much

for many years after that time. Some years later the build- ing of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad through Marion county injured the town's trade still further. But the turn- ing point came again, and it brought greater prosperity than the first residents of the town ever thought of. The popu- lation remained at about 1000 for many years.
The establishing of the State University here soon after the Civil war; the completion of locks and dams, insuring the navigation of the river at all seasons of the year; the construction of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, connecting Morgantown with Pittsburg (102 miles) on the north, and with the main line of the same road at Fairmont on the south, were the first steps in the real growth of the town, and in the development of the surrounding country. Then came the discovery of oil and gas near by, and later the coal land over large areas was bought by companies with a view to its development. The leasing of lands for oil and the purchasing of the coal which underlies the farms poured large quantities of money into the town and the surrounding country.
The use of natural gas as fuel induced two large glass plants to locate here, as well as other manufacturing estab- lishments. A branch railroad was built from Morgantown up Decker's creek into Preston county, opening up for devel- opment a wide tract of country with natural resources of immense proportions and of the most valuable and perma- nent kind. Other improvements, all showing the progres- sive spirit of the people, have followed rapidly. "Public buildings, business houses and private residences have kept fully apace with the other improvements. Nearly two miles of streets have been paved with brick, and contracts for almost as much more have been let No other town of 5000 people in West Virginia can compare with Morgantown in

the beauty and extent of paved streets, when present con- tracts are completed.
Free delivery of mail has been established in the town, and free rural delivery, centering in the town, extends into all the surrounding country. This brings trade to town and greatly enlarges the business importance of the place. The business houses are fully abreast of the times and they fully appreciate the advantages which they now enjoy, and they are alive to the prospects of the future. The town has com- petent police and fire protection; most excellent school facil- ities; handsome church edifices and earnest and educated ministers who look after the spiritual welfare of the people.
Greater Morgantown now takes the place of several small towns and communities which formerly existed apart. By their growth and expansion their borders met and coalesecd. In 1901 they were granted a common charter, and ceased to exist as independent communities. The principal of these were Seneca, Sunnyside, Wiles' Addition, East Morgantown, Greenmont, South Park, and South Morgan- town. The aggregate population is considerably more than 5,000, and the great majority of the people are unusually prosperous and progressive. They patronize old enter- prises, and welcome and encourage new ones. The spirit of selfishness and self-satisfaction which is sometimes met in other communities is not found here. Thrift and enterprise are the prevailing characteristics.
Residences are now in course of construction within the town representing a value of $100,000. In addition to these, the new buildings for the University, with their equipments, now being built, represent an expenditure of nearly that much more. Real estate is active and strong, and every branch of business is healthy and vigorous. During the last year nearly 1,000 students attended the University. From

that source alone the people of the town receive much valu- ble business.
It is not always easy to foretell the future; but in the case of Morgantown the case is different. Everything is in favor of a continuance of the present prosperity and a constant growth for years to come. The greatest source of wealth, this coal, has not yet been touched. Companies have large works of development in contemplation which must be real- ized in the near future. But this generation or the next will not see the exhaustion of the coal supply. The hills are full of it. The whole country is underlaid with it. Morgantown is the center of a coal region that has not a superior in West Virginia. It has an outlet by rail and river, and the devel- opment is at hand.
The financial institutions of the town are amply able to meet the requirements of the large volume of business.
Public improvements extend into the surrounding coun- try; and bridges have been built, or are building, to render the county seat easily accessible from all parts of Mononga- lia County.
The advertising pages of this directory will give a fair idea of the business enterprises, not only of the town, but of outside firms who are in touch with the people of the town and find it profitable to cultivate their acquaintance for business purposes.

Directory of Morgantown,
The list of names in the directory has been revised up to April 8, 1901, and is believed to be as accurate as can be made. The street and number are given where the houses have numbers, and also the telephone calls, and the business or occupation. In the case of persons under age who live with their parents, it has not usually been found practicable to designate their occupation. That will usually (but not always) account for the blank following some of the names. The names printed in capitals show that those persons have advertisements in this directory, and special attention is called to such advertisements. An ex- amination of the advertisements in this book will give a good idea of the men and firms who are the chief business factors in the community.

MESSRS. CANBY, GILPIN & CO .:
By way of giving you an idea of the efficacy of HOWE'S BLACK FLAG INSECT POWDER, one dozen of which I bought of you some time since, I would say that I used a half-bottle of the medium size on Sat- urday evening, as I closed for the week, and upon opening the Store on Monday there was not a fly living, save those few which happened to get shut up in the show cases. I think, without the slightest exag- geration, I brushed together fully three quarts of Dead Flies.
