Citizens Meeting.

Pursuant to a previous appointment a
meeting Of the citizens Of Troy was held
at the Masonic Hall, on the evening of
January 10Th, 1872, for the purpose of
promoting the interest of Temperance
reform movement, now 10 progress in our
town, at which meeting Charles Martin
was elected chairman, and W. T. Baker
secretary. On motion, j. B. Allen an
uounced the object Of the meeting to be
as stated. Appropriate rom.rk. were
'mado by various gentlemen, touching the
great question of moral reformation of
the community, and the best means of
cffecting that end, showing the Importance
of united action in riddlng the town Of
its evils aud healing the wounds already y
inflicted. 1t is but justice to say that all
present seemed to be awake to the vel
fare Of social order and to the necessity
Of a 6rm stand and strict enforcement Of
tho law. Believing that the security of
this, aud the prevention Of further crime
and disaster, call forth our most vigiant
and united action, it was on motion deter
mined that the citizens again meet at the
Masonic Hail on Tuesday evening, Jan.
uary Both, 1872, for a more permanent
organization, aud to more fully express
the sentiment Of the citizens in this iirec
ton. All persons are requested to attend.

took cognizance Of the reports, appointed

-
The cold weather and frozen ground
has prevented contractors on our railroad
from doing a large amount of work but
what has been done and is now doing 10
very gratifying to all criends Of the road.
A few days ef pleasant weather, and
the grading on the road from the mooth
Of Big creek to a point about a mile
north Of the depot grounds at Troy will
be ready to receive the tics.
The contractors for bridges has q large
force at work on Capt. VIM Miller's land,
getting out timber and putting up the
bridges on that part of the line and he
will increase his force ip few days, and
the work of bridging will begin at several
other points. We look upon this work
as very gratifying aud cheering, because
the grading and bridging completed, and
ties laying beside the road, is unmistaka.
bic evidence to the eyes and understand
ing Of all persons that our road will
speedily be completed. That unhappy
individual who is constantly complaining
that nothing has been done, and never
will be done, to build the road, should
torture his soul by an examination Of the
road, beginning at either the north or
south line Of this county, and going over
it. There are portions Of the road in
complete, but on them will be found
large numbers of workmen, and the
amount of work done during the winter,
despite the cold, astonishes even railroad
builders.
That portion of the road which was
left partially completed by the first con-
tractors has been re- let to others, and
work has been commenced again. The
huge piles of dirt that have attracted the
attention of all who have passed along
the Troy and Auburn road, will soon
present tho smooth appearance Of o com
pleted railroad embank mcnt.
AT dinner the best things are reserved
for desert, and we reserve for the last the
best news about the St. Louis and Keo.
kuk railroad. Those opposed to the
road have made great capital out of their
own declaration, that the road had no
connection with other railroads, and
could not be built through St. Charles
county. We havo positive information
that work on the road will commence in
st. Charles county in few days. The
engineers are examining and making &C
curate surveys Of the lines from the mouth
of Big creek to the North Missouri rail
road, and the line selected by the Chief
Engineer and Board of Directors will be
let to contractors who are now awaiting
this definite location. OF course tha.
particular line which offers the creates,
inducements to the road will be the one
selected. What is done by the people Of
st. Charles county must be done imme
diatsly. It is not expected that they will
give enough to construc. the road bed,
but they can and will give literally to
secure the junction at one Of three sew
eral points on the North Missouri rail
read. Money is the important thing
required to build railroads, and our road
is no exception to this rule. We are
informed by the Directors OF the road,
however, that they have the money nee
essary to build the road from tho North
Missouri railroad to Big creek, and, as
we stated before, work on the road bed
will commence in few days.
