Charlton Leader.

We learn from the Knoxville
JOURNAL, that the Railroad from
Abba to Knoxville, is now under
contract to be built to the latter
place by the first day of January,
1876. The contract has been let to
Ex-Governor Merrill, and will be
pushed through immediately. Mr..
Merrill thinks that he will have the
cars in Knoxville by the first OF
August. The energy and enterprise
OF our neighbors of that city are
truly admirable, and we only regret
that those virtues are not contagious
SO that our people here could be
seized with a touch Of enterprise suf-
fficient to secure cross railroad.
Knoxville journal. [volume] (Knoxville, Iowa) 1874-1986, 1875-05-27
OUR SOUTHERN RAILROAD.

We are sitting on a raggeder
edge than ever in regard to the
building of our southern railroad
this year. Col. Buell. has not made
his appearance here according to
promise. Neither do we now think
1t probable he could get possession of
the road bed of the Central from here
to Moulton If there were nothing else
in the way of his building the road.
The road bed is mortgaged to bond
holders, and they thus had vested
rights in the property before the
passage of the law providing isr the
forfeiture of right of way of rail-
roads; and it seems to be the general
opinion of legal gentlemen that the
the subsequent law could not destroy
those vested rights Of the mortga-
gees. The Central road being now
in the hands of a receiver, no person
or persons have a right to give the
Quincy Company the privilege OF
taking possession of the road bed in
question. Mortgages held by bond
holders on the Central will be FORE
closed next October, when the road
will pass into the possession Of the
purchasers, whoever they may be,
and they will be apt to make some
arrangement for the completion of
the south end. We have therefore,
lost all expectation of seeing the
road south built this year; but we
confidently expect that it will be
built before many years. 1t seems
that Col. Buell. has made promises
with which he is unable to comply (;
but nevertheless he merits the
thanks of the people all along the
line of the A. X. & d. road for hav-
ing worked up that enterprise to
such a point that Gov. Merrill and
the G. b. & @. Company concluded
to take hold Of it and put the road
through to Knoxville this year.
Knoxville journal. [volume] (Knoxville, Iowa) 1874-1986, 1875-05-27

good wages and sure pay. Not only
Is the c. b. & @. Company which is
having the work done, wealthy and
responsible, but the contractors
themselves are well known here and
along the line as responsible and re-
liable men. Mr.. Stubbs has been
engaged for two or three years in the
work of filling up the ravines under
the c. b. & O., for which he had the
contract aud has ever been found
reliable, straight man, as we'll MS an
energetic business man. VIM. Jack
son, who is associated with him in
the contract for grading, was also
with him one year on the other
work, and is a wide-awake, reliable,
thorough-going young man. We
are pleased that the contract has
been awarded to these men as it
gives assurance not only that the
work will be pushed forward and
done on time, but that all the other
contracts they make in the prosecu-
ton of the work will be complied
with.
