Slurry pipeline plan eyed to aid coal industry and curb rail rates
The Contintental Resources Co. seeks a 1500 mile coal slurry pipeline from Illinois and West Virginia to Georgia and Florida. If approved by Congress for eminent domain, it could save electricity consumers up to 54 billion dollars over 20 years and steady coal markets in Appalachia by moving 54 million tons annually, reducing rail shipping costs and pressuring rail rates.

Shelter Will Deal With Vicious Dog Problems
A Mercer County shelter letters section outlines the new West Virginia dog control law, enacted to curb bites and aggression. It mandates confinement for vicious dogs, licensing for certain dogs, fifteen days quarantine for biting dogs, and county powers to regulate dogs, with a 3 dollar head tax and a 25 day confinement rule during female dogs' estrus. The writer also cites concerns about Sheriff Hare, praises Bluefield Hospital staff, commends local police, and urges public safety and responsible pet ownership.
