Another Railroad,

Last Friday evening the 9th inst, a
mass meeting was held at Pittsville,
for the purpose Of making arrange
ments with the new railroad company
al DexterYille to extend their line
from that place to Pittsville as soon
as the spring season would permit.
Henry Ketchem of New London, also
Geo. Hiles and Tom Pitts, made quite
lengthy speeches in its favor. The talk
at this meeting was that the line in
project at present was to continue the
road from Dexterville to Pittsvill c
thence to Marshield making a direct
line through the west central part Of
the county from Remington north
This line if brought to completion
would not Interfere with the line that
is to be built from Centralia to Vespel
thence to Auburndals Both lines
when complete would make our coun-
ty vastly better off. The road run
ming from Remington north along the
Yellow River to Marshfeld would add
greatly to the convenience of those liv-
ing in that valley. While the line
from Centralia to Vesper and thence
to Auburndale would open up the
most valuable tracts of pine and hard
wood timber in the county. Both
lines will undoubtedly be built neither
of which will do us any injury, and
both will probably do US unbounded
good. Lets have both. The citizens
of Pittsyille will take $4,000 in
stock in the Dexterville road. IT'S
we'll

a Cold Nap.
Correspondence from Rudolph

Correspondence from Rudolph
Last Saturday night Henry Reuleau
gave a party in the town of Rudolph,
A few of his friends gathered to enjoy
its festivities. Beer, oysters etc. had
been selected as the refreshments. A
scrub fiddler furnished the mu-
sic. Before morning too much beer
made some of the boys pretty jolly.
Sunday morning Joseph Provo took
the girls home. He went about three
miles or more from Rudolph and on
his return he fell asleep; his horses
guided themselves pretty near home
when they run in snow bank and
there became fast. They remained
five hours in this position before young
Provo woke up and drove them home.
The undersigned subscriber asked
Henry if he was not ashamed to let
his team stand out all night in the
cold in that manner. He replied a
team is nothing in comparison to a
lovely girl He said he was going to
marry before the 4th Of July next or
hang himself. Of course that was
good enough so l asked him nothing
more.

The union mass meeting held at the
court house Saturday evening was but
fairly attended. A general discussion
Of the merits of building a railroad
to Vesper was discussed and also the
question of voting a donation $10,-
900 by the two cities. From the temper
of the meeting we deem it quite doubt
full if the cities will vote any donation
for aid. However, after the regular
meeting had adjourned without action
the special committee appointed at a
previous meeting met and perfected pa
pers for the application of a charter for
the road. That the road should be built
and will be built we firmly believe
1t is true the amount asked from the
cities is small and should be forth
coming, if not by tax then by private
subscription. Let US have the road

RUSSELLyILLE AS A NlANU-
 FEATURING CENTRE.

1t is source of pleasure, and a pointer to those who have surplus money, to note that every mannfac- turing enterprise in and around Rus sellyille, of whatever sort, is in . prosperous condition. There cer tainly can be no place in the State, or United States, offering more fa- cilities as manufacturing center than Russellville. She is in the very heart of the finest coal regions in the State, so that it is impossible for the tIme ever to arrive when cheap fuel cannot be had right at their doors for manufacturing purposes. and this is heavy item. Large pine forests and in easy reach to furnish lumber for building purposes. Also oak, hickory, ash, gum and other timbers not to be excelled, grow in abundance in her vicinity. Water in unlimited supply can be obtained at trifling expense. Situated on the l.. R. & F. :. R. R., about half way between two great trunk railways, she has splendid connections with the great East and West
 It is fact worthy of mention here and one that will carry its own ap- peal to capital looking for invest ment in the line ot manufacturing, that the Melrose cotton mills located at this point runs at an expense of between five and ten dollars a day less than the Quapaw mills at Little Rock, which has less capacity than the Melrose in the same line of goods.
 Manufacturing in the South has long since passed the point of uncer tainty, and especially, at an eligible point like Russellville. We cannot speak with certainty as to the exact ngure, but We are certain that the earnings Of the Melrose mills the past year will reach a figure between twenty and thirty per cent. What better could a man want than that, and yet we are not certain that the wagon factory of Luker, Settle & Coz which, it is true, is on much smaller scale, could not make bet ter showing, In fact capital em- ployed in manufacturing, be it ever so small, is piling up profits to suit the most exacting speculator There are many openings for paying enter prises ill our town, not least among which is good steam Tannery.

THE SEASONS LESSON.

If it could be utilized and proper ly appreciated, every season con tains its own peculiar lesson, and especially to the husbandman. We do not pretend to know the scope of the lesson this season has brought for common observation. Our DOT tion of it, we think, is that part which is emphasized by the cutting off of the corn crop, and that is that farmers try to spread over too much land. They put in too many acres to the hand, and are consequently unable to give the land the deep, careful breaking i'll early spring and the regular, rapid cultivation after ward either to keep crops clean or bring the full resources of the soil to their aid This season has demon strated the folly of this course, and ought to teach our farmers the wis dom of planting fewer acres and cul- tiyating better, and paying more attention to fertilizing. It is aston ishing how little attention is paid to fcrtilizlng. Very few think of de- voting time for this purpose, and yet nothing would return such com pensation Our farmers as a gen eral thing farm as though nothing but main strength and awkwardness ayailed anything in their occupation as though brains were given to man. kind to serve in other professions, but only hands given in theirs. They do not sec, or refuse to take the near cuts all around them to prosperity, but plod on in the same old way. Need we say that this is a mistake. Yes, you agree with us it is a mis- take. Well then set about to reme- dy it, and next year bring into your management the principle that it is not the number of acres but fertiliz- irg and cultivation that brings re ward.
