ng-A. the railroad meeting held

R A. the railroad meeting held in
this place on the 22d inst, JAMES Wat
SON, Esq was called to the Chair and
JAMES W. HoLLrsrER was appointed Sec
retary.
The President OF the B & S. w. sta
ted the object of the meeting was to ap-
point a committee, to meet with com
mittees from Bellaire, Armstrong; Mill
and Besllsville, to provide means to gay
off the floating debt. Also, stated that
the Board Of Directors had authorized
an issue of second mortgage bonds 10
the amount of $4,000.
Captain WILLIAM DoUaHERrY, of Per-
ry township, offered the following reso
luton:
Resolued, That this meeting hereby
appoints John Sanders and Col. j. H.
Sullivan, Of ,Bellaire, W. H Hutchinson,
of Beallsyilie, and DR.. L P. Farquhsr
and John W. Doherty, of Woods6eld,
committee to make thorough inves-
tigaiion of the receipts and expenditures,
and bond and syndicate transactions of
the B d s w r R. Co., from its in
corporation to June lst, 1880, and pre-
pare detailed report of the same.
This was boom shell and caused
some posting, when Mr.. MATTHEW
MOORE wanted to know who was to pay
the gentlemen named on the committee
and then circulated among the Stockton
ders to eectioneer against its passage.
The President of the road was in ia
vor Of investigation, so he stated, but
was careful to not vote to pass the res
olution. He didn't know whether the
Board would appropriate money to pay
the examiners. /.
Finally, vote was reached and the
resolution was defeated by four votes,
cast by officers of the road and its de
pendents, Had they desired investiga-
ton their votes would have secured q
thorough one.
1t was intimated that the resolution
was not offered in the proper spirit, and
that the action taken was by enemies OF
the road. 1t was presented by stock
holder and supported by stockholders
who subscribed and paid up in full. They
certainly have a perfect right to demand
that the acts of the men elected to man
age the road be examined and reported
upon without having the clackers OF
the men who dread and fear investiga-
tion term them enemies of the enterprise
Men who harp in this manner are SIM
| ply obeying the orders of their masters,
as they have too mnch sense themselves
to believe such stuff.
