The Presidents report says: The above
statement shows that the money earned by
the road and it's branches has been expended
on the eprOperty and although the fiscal year
was one of almost unprecedented prosperity,
the earnings have not nearly given a sutti-
cheney to put upon the property the i'm
provements indispensable to first class ser
vice.
In reference to the Cheraw and Chester
and the Chesteran Lenoir Railroads, which
are operated under lease by the G., {. &
\. Road, the report says:
"The operation of the leased lines, al
though not altogether satisfactory, is not
without encouragement The A. Il. q o..
r. r. has paid its rental, while the {. d
G.. r. r., and the G.. & L. n. G. r. r., have
fallen short. The latter roads have been
made still less productive by the ruling OF
the Railroad Commissioners, which has
placed them in the category of the trunk
lines, and allows these sparsely supplied To-
cal carriers to charge no more fort their labor
per ton per mile than is charged by the
South Carolina Railway, although the latter
carries about forty times or four thousand
per cent. the freight carried by the former
If, however, these roads can be relieved
from this arbitrary pressure and we are left
free to develop the trade in their territory,
the probability is that in time they will be-
come self-sustaining and of value to the
main line. The Cheraw and Chester has
been made continuous and convenient line
by the construction Of a bridge across the
Catawba, thus giving to Lancaster good
outlet to the markets. This bridge has been
in use for several months, while a portion
of it is still temporary structure, permanent
work is being pushed forward, and unless
arrested by high water, will be completed
during the present month. The Chester &
Lenoir n. &. r. r. has been extended to
Hickory, on the Western n. G. r. R. The
bridge across the Catawba, beyond Hickory,
is being built, and the rail is being laid as
fast as the cross ties are delivered by the
contractors, thus extending the line from
Chester to Lenoir, which, when completed,
will be a hundred and ten miles in length,
through a rich, but comparatively undevel-
oped country"
A delegation from North Carolina were
present, and urged an extension of the Char
iotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad line
into that State for the distance Of some tWen-
ty miles or upward. The matter was refer
rod to tho President with mower to act.

An OREaoN ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
ence Standard: In Salem, May 10Th,
1883, at the residence of the brides pa
rents. on Gaiety Hill, at IL a. m, Mr.. w.
j. Dyer, of Waila Walla, and Sarah W. :,
third daughter of s. A. Clarke, Esq,
late OF Portland, Rev. p. s. knight, OF
the Congregational Church, officiating.
The wedding was quiet one, the guests
being old-time friends and young peo-
pie with whom the bride had enjoyed
the associations of her life time in this,
her native place. The attendants were
Miss Woodwork and Mr.. WI. Clarke,
cousin and brother of the bride. The
bridal costume Was of pale pink bro
caded silk, made en- train and trimmed
with spanish lace; the bridesmaid wore
short suit Of pure white muslin.
Though quite informal, the occasion
was very pleasant one, Mr.. and Mrs.
Clarke entertaining in their newly refit-
ted house with the same cordially that
characterized their many gatherings in
the old house. While passing TO the
gate the bridal party was showered with
rice, the guests lining the walk holding
each handful for the purpose-an old
custom the origin Of which caused some
speculation. The presents were nuuer-
Gus and handsome. Mr.. 4 Mrs. Dyer
left on the noon train for Portland, on
route for Walla Walla, where they will
Ia future reside.
