with it-that if all the hay and track

Cost of Vermont Railroads.

No one in our community, who has be-
slowed a moments serious thought upon
the subject, can question the immense adj
vantages that would arise from new line
of railroad to St. Johnsbury, and thence
making connection with Portland. The
only question is whether it be possible 10
raise the amount of funds necessary TO car
ry out the enterprise. In order to make
some approximation toward an intelligent
Judgment in respect to this matter, we
have been looking up the cost of our pres
ent Vermont roads-premising that in this
calculation we have omitted the Vermont
Central and Rutland and Burlington roads.
for the simple reason that these swlndles
were too transparent to deceive anybody.
The age is too far advanced for any intel
ligent community to be again invited TO
such an entertainment of financial skill as
was exhibited in the laying and construct
ing these two roads. The remaining roads
are as follows:
The Connecticut; and Passumpsic road from
White River Junction to Newport, III
miles, cost S2,567,4S6 ~
The Rutland and Washington, from Rut-
land to Esgle Bridge, New York, % miles
Cost 1,F1,6S9 10
The Vermont and Canada from Essex juno
ton to X uses Point, IS miles, cost I3Sl, a0p ~
The Atlantic and s.. Lawrence. in Yer
mont, i NIL, cost 1880 o.
The Western Vermont, from Rutland TO
Bennington, 50 miles, cost Los, Sol 81
s6e25qSO -
The average cost per mile of these roads
was sd, 119 90. On this basis the cost
of the 40 miles of road from Montpelier
TO st. Johnsbury will be SS71,I60 90.
When we take into consideration the fact
that there is very little rock excavation ON
the proposed route-no deep cuts or heavy
tills-with very few bridges, and those
comparatively short-there can be no
question but this road will compare favor
ably with the Western Vermont. which
cost but SlS,36+ 90 per mile. On this
basis the 10 miles from Montpelier to 81.
Johnsbury will cost S7734,560 90. But.
says one, ii costs vastly more TO build a
road now than formerly. Admitted
though the enhanced price of labor and
material ought in a good measure 10 be
overcome by the benefits of experience and
practical knowledge acquired in the last
fifteen years. But adding 80 per cent. to
the cost OF the above roads, we have for
our proposed road cost per mile of S24.-
this sum, honestly expended, We firmly be-
lleve the proposed road can be we'll built.
And this opinion finds confirmation in the
fact that the proposed road from Bcnning-
ton to Chatham -Four Corners, 10 aid in
constructing which our legislature has inI
been Ill session, is Offered TO be put in per-
feet running order. by parties abumdantlv
responsible. for so, 900 % per mile. over
route much more costly than ours
