THE ST. LOUIS Il NEW YORK
NARROW-GAUGE RAILROAD
AGAIN
Proposition TO Hold n Convention
at Wheeling.
From st. Louis Democrat OF Wednesday,
A FIRST RATE SUGGESTION.

From St. Louis Democrat Of Wednesday,
A FIRST RATE SUGGESTION.
Interest in the St. Louis proposition to
build doubletrack narrow gauge rail
way to the East does not flag by any man
ner of meaEs. The writer Of the follow.
ing letter resides on the proposed line ana
makes first rate suggestion IN reference
to the matter OF holding convention IN
Wheeling, West Va, composed OF dele
gates from each county on the line.
"WAsurNGroN, FAYETTE Co, o., Dec.
z, IS7l-76 tie Missouri Democrat'-Am
in receipt of your issue Of the Democrat
mat contains u proposed plan for building
Il narrow gauge double track railroad
from the city OF St. Louis, No., to the city
of Portland, Me.and entertaining no doubt
as to the praCticability Of building such a
national thorOughiare us you describe Tor
the transportation OF passengers and
freight, | have taken the trouble to show
your calculations and arguments To many
OF our most prominent business men, anu
find no difference opinion among them as
to the present and Gyer-lnCrGasing public
necessity for said road, and all expressed u
strong belief that the complies through
which the proposed line Of road might be
located could not only equip such u road,
but also forever hold aud operate II in the
interests of the public.
In order to pOpulariZe and place the
project permanently and fairly before
those that arc interested, / would suggest
that your Chamber Of Commerce procure
the publication, either in circular or
pamphlet form, of your proposed plan for
building q railroad, and that they pro-
vide for a meeting of delegates from each
Of tho counties interested, and through
which the route Of the proposed road lies;
the place Ofholding meeting TO be Wheel
ing, w, Va, and the time January, 1879.
Az such meeting Of tho representative
men Of each Of the States interested--a
plan of organized action could be adopted
as would lead TO the carly location and
building of tho rONd. am rs ever, yours
truly, l.. N. WOMAN.
We think the suggestion u very prNcli-
cal one, and recommend its adoption. We
do not think, however that the Merchants
Exchange should be saddled with the
expense of publishing the suggested
pamphlet We think u fund Of say $500
could easily be raised for that purpose
among the merchants of Main, Third md
Fourth streets, md that every subscriber
to this fund would feel sufficiently inter.
ested in the proposition to give 1t every
aid in his power.

v. Railway Project.
The Cleveland HuM, referring to the
railroad conference recently held At the
Grant House in this city, md the organi.
2lIion of the Wheeling II TusCarawas
Valley Railroad Company, says:
Tho Importance of the project to
Cleveland can be seen ut q glance. 1t
opens additional territory, rich in miner.
ais, to our market. 1t makes direct con-
nGctiOn with the Ohio river, with the
busy city Of Wheeling, and opens nm in.
dependent through line TO baltimore and
| Washington. The strongest objections
made to the proposed connection at the
meeting was that II would give Cleveland
such m advantage that it would draw to
itself all the trade Of the rich country
now tributary to Wheeling. II this were
altogether true, II would be mn additional
reason In Cleveland eyes for the building
OF the road, but although we shall Nssur.
eddy draw largely from that portion Of
the country, Wheeling will be more than
compensated by what II will receive in
the way Of business now turned In other
directions. The sense Of the meeting re.
cognlzed this, and rightly held that the
proposed line would greatly benefit both
cities and iullict no injury on either
The Leader says: .m' r
President StreatOr reports a strong and
hearty feeling among Wheeling men in
favor Of the enterprise, the meeting even
going so far as TO take steps for procuring
tho required charter and the immediate
organization Of company. II was fully
understood that the road from Wheeling
to tho point of junction with tho TusCarA-
was road will run through much more
difficult country, and consequently be
moro expensive than this end ofthe route.
But the Wheeling men regard the open
ingOI new route from that city to the
lakes, so important as to fully warrant
the enterprise. 1t will be- generally hoped
In Cleveland that the proposed plan may
be carried out II would give us u new
outlet TO tho Ohio river, another distinct
route TO Baltimore and Washington, aud
would still further extend the scope an d
value Of the Tuscarawas Valley road as
n coal feeder TO this market. Tho road
would also be OF important value to
wheeling on many accounts, and may be
regarded one OF the new enterprises that
