The 'saple trees were never known TO
bear such heavy crop Of seed as this
spring. The sidewalks and every nook an d
corner is filled with them. There is an
abundance in Perrysburg alone to seed a
large portion of the western piairies.

THE SHORT LINE RAILROAD.

In returning from the meeting ct Marshall
with the delegates from other counties ~interes-
ted i'll organizing the st. Louis and Kansas
City Short Line Railroad company, we deem il
proper to state to the subscribers of this enter
prise that we are greatly encouraged and more
than ever before interested IN the enterprise. We
believe that We have good reasons to expec,
that this road Will soon be built, that it will
be operated by one of the great corporations
not now in possession of an outlet from st.
Louis to Kansas City, and that it will be the
shortest line between the two great cities OF
Miss ,uri. But We call the attention of all in
terested in the welfare of Lexington, to the fact
that it will take money and work to get the
road through this city. The next meeting will
be ut Columbia. June 9Th. In The mean tim
We will need u few more subscriptions in cash
and will hope TO get them from those who haze
not yet subscribed. And especially do We need
the presence and interest of our citizens at the
meetings in Lexington, of which we will give
the dates later on.

ST. LOUIS 4 KANSAS CITY SHORT
LINE.

There is an earnest effort being made,
by men who are competent i'll means
and influence, to build a railroad from
ST. Louis to Kansas City, on the short
est practicable route, crossing the Mis-
souri, river near Howeil's ferry and
near Arrow Rock, being more direct
and having lighter grades than any
other east and west road ros Mis-
souri,. Powerful corporations at each
end of the line which have not now
satisfactory connections are ready to
connect with the road when it is built.
The writer attended a meeting OF the
gentlemen who are the projectors of
the road at Fulton a few weeks ago,
and subsequently secured a meeting
here, which appointed Messrs. Long
don, McCausland, Field, Wilson and
Kriehn a committee to raise a part of
So 900 in cash needed from this
county for the preliminary organ
ization. In two days the COM
mittee raised in Lexington S2,175.
Waverly then had a meeting and raised
S1,416. A subsequent meeting in
Lexington sent the following named
gentlemen as delegates to a meeting at
Marshall, May 20, with instructions to
vote for Mr.. W. b. Steele for Lafay-
cite county's director in the road:
Messrs. Jno. Reid, w. b. Steele, r.
Field, w. G. McCausland, H. Winkler,
Geo. Wilson, E. M. Edward. Chas.
Kraus, r. S. Dinwiddie and Edward
Downs. Because of some legal tech
nicalities in the organization, and the
necessity for a little more money than
was raised, the permanent organization
was deferred until June 3, at Column
bia. Col. McClelland was chairman Of
the meeting at Marshall. Messrs. B.
A. CHM. James Wentworth and Fred.
Winkler, attended as alternates for
Messrs. Steele, Field and H. Winkler.
The permanent organization will al
most certainly be effected at Columbia,
and when it is done the organization
will be the strongest one that has ever
attempted the construction of a rail-
road in Missouri, and it is the intention
to build the best road. This enter
prise is an earnest one, in the hands of
able and earnest men. We need not
dilate upon the necessity of the road;
all understand that. 1t remains for a
united effort to be made i'll its behalf.
That done, it will be. secured.
