The Connellsville Courier says: The
threat of the coal operators along the
Wheeling division of the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad 10 build railroad of their
own if the company does not furnish them
with a better car supply, sounds suspi-
ciously like bluff What the coal oper-
ators want is not more railroad, but more
cars. If they would improve their condi-
ton let them build themselves an equip
mant of individual cars. Such action would
be more to the point. 1t costs money TO
build railroads, and it costs money TO equip
and operate them. Two railroads up
Peters creek would probably result in
neither one being remunerative In that
case the weaker would 90 10 the wall, and
the weaker wouldn't be the Baltimore and
Ohio.
