we are decidedly opposed to railroad mo mnlle

this policy by the State, some aid might b ba
obtained for the railroad to Bridgton, we
should be strongly inclined to follow the lead
OF the Wing in demanding estate aid for rail-
roads"-more especially, however, the Bridg-
ton railroad!
But isn't the NeaCs mistaken in assuming
that Portland has received help from the
State in building its railroads? On the con-
trary has not the passion for aid been infam-
ed by the generosity that has already been
SHOWN to the Eastern part of the State?
