Referring to the reported contemplatedex-
tension Of the Cambria Lumber Company's
railroad from their mills a. F5ustsesl 10
Ashf0ls, Paint township, where they have
large timber tracts, the JohBstoSn Herald
SAYS The railroad extensions refeTred 20 yes
terdsy are further evidence of the prosperity
which may be expected in Cambria and
Sonerset Counties The coal and timber
along these routes will be marketed, new
towns viii spring uP as they havein North
err Cambria, and everybody vii share to
some degree in the result Of such improve
ments. These two counties have plenty Of
coai and timber a, yet untouched. bat recent
developments would indicate that in the
near future none Of the land upon which
these can be found Will be on the market.
Il follows that the parties who buy these
lands will develop them, and it is just Is
logical a conclusion that the railroads will
build new lines to secure the trade. We may
not have a wild-west boom in this section,
but 10 viii have steady and sure growth
