Vallev Railroad

The Baltimore Sun of the 21st, has the
following paragraph which indicates ;
direction of public thought in which the
Valley is deeply interested as well al
Baltimore. We hope it may be the pre-
cursor to something more tangible, and
road projectors will be realized in its
completion to Salem
Now that many millions OF Northern
capital are going into Virginia to pro-
mote the industrial development of that
State it is a good time for the completion
of the Valley Railroad to Salem, Va,
its originally intended terminus. Only
about A miles of the road remain to be
completed in order to reach this point
and more than half of the way is already
graded. At Salem, ON the Norfolk and
Western Railroad Northern capital is
building two furnaces of large capacity,
and there is a good prospect that other
industrial works will soon be established
there. In Rockbridge county, Il short
distance from Lexington, the manufac
turing towns of Buena Vista and elias
gov are being promoted by much of the
combined wealth of Virginia and North
ern capitalists, while all through the
part of the State industrial
is going on at a rapid rate.
The completion of the railroad link to
Salem will enable Baltimore to share in
the business which must result from this
activity in the South, while further eN-
tension through North Carolina would
meet long felt want of the business in
terests of this city.
