8hSe ,CoNCERHIHG THE HEMPFIELD RAIL
aoAD-The bill concerning the Hemp.
field Railroad" which has passed the
House of Delegates and which came up in
the Senate yesterday, caused considerable
discussion. We understand that the OBJ
ject of the bill is to allow of the sale of the
road to the Pennsylvania Central Road,
which company proposes to complete the
Hempfeld to Greeushurgh. The road, in
a business point of view, is doing worse
than nothing and it is desirable that the
sale should take place Under our pres
ent law regulating the sale of railroads,
there would have to be seperate board of
directors, in case of sale, for that portion
of the road which lies within this State
The opposition to the bill in the Senate
arises from the fact that the Constitution of
the State of West Virginia provides TINT no
additional privileges shall be granted to
any corporation until due notice shall have
been given under regulations to be estab-
lished by law. No legal provision has as
yet been made for giving such notice, and
it is contended that the passage of the bill
before such provision is made and notice
accordingly given would be in conflict with
the constitution.
