Gentlemen stand ready 70 contract
to build The road for Sl,400,00 The
mos favorable arrangements have been
made for the connections Of the road
when built It win receive d business
which VIII IN all probability pay good
interest on every dollar invested in it,
and will furnish us accommodations
which viii certainly pay good interest
/ on every thing invested in the Weston
Vermont Valley,
The most SIN yuine must now be sat
isfed that there IS no hope in any other
connection The lapse ~ time has not
brought a single favorable indication,
On the contrary every day strengthens
the conviction that the break at the
State hne is permancnt Those who
chung tie longest to the hope Of a con
n~action with tbs TO- ana Boston road
have Tong since given il up.
The people Of our towns have hadthc
time and the means necessary to an IN
telligent decision Of this most important
question. Upon its merits there have
been ample discussion and deliberation.
III Inns been for several weeks the sub
ljeet Of argument and inquiry No one
can regret thai the time Of discussion
is near an end and the time Of final nc
tion at hand. For months we have had
before our eyes a broken connection, q
ruined railroad and a falling business,
aud if these are not enough 20 satisfy
om citizens, arguments Of words are
useless,
The people Of the towns which have
already given their assent, call upon
the remaining towns to lend their mid.
They feel that they have a right 70 do
50, for the interests Of the towns are
common, and any burden which is es-
sential to those interests should be
shared equally by 81. They do not
ask those towns to help others but TO
10 their share towards helping the COM
munity q which they form a part. The
towns which were called upon to do the
most, have done it cheerfully. They
lave done il because tbeybeheved it es-
sential TO the prosperity Of this whole
valley and they do not wish 10 see the
project fail through the inactivity Of
those whose interest in it is the same.
The towns which have net set given
their assent should bear in mind that
the matter is the most important which
can be presented for the consideration
of d business community, aud if he
project fails with them must rest tho
responsibility Of its defeat
