A VALUABLE STRIP OF LAND.
Mr. Muneo Currie Now Asks S45, O0(
for What Cost Him So, 800,

Mr.. Mungo Currie Now Asks $40, 600
for What Cost Him So, 800.
The Lehigh Valley Railroad in its
march through Greenville has struck a
snag in the shape of small plot of ground
at the foot of Gator avenue, owned by
Mr.. Mungo Currle. The plot of ground
measures but fifty by one hundred feet,
but as 1t is directly in the path OF the
railroad Mr.. Currie realizes that the com
panY must have it in order TO complete
the road, and its value has taken a mar
velous bound. The plot was originally
owned by Mr.. A. futile, who died about
two years ago. The heirs were anxious
to dispose of what they thought was
worthless land an jumped at Mr.. Currle's g
offer of So. 300 for the plot.
A year ago, when the railroad company
began TO purchase prdperty for it's road.
Mr.. Currie saw that he had made
a profitable investment. and when
the railroad people visi ed him
he demanded $45O00 for the
strip of lana. The railroad people did
not buy it. Last week. however, they
again visited Mr.. Currie and offered
$50. 600 for the strip. Mr.. Cnrrie refused
this offer and is confident that the COM
pany will pay what he asks
The strip is directly in the path of the
east-bound track. The west bound track
is on property owned by the railroad. By
placing switch on the west bound track
the company could get over the difficulty
1t is more likely, however, that tha COM
pany will hand up the $4,000 which Cur
rie demands

that they may vote for him. and give him
an opportunity to carry out the grand

the speaker then dweit on the fact
GnaI the Democratic party did not favor
free trade. but believed that when duties
We're to be imposed they should be inn
posed In accordance with the constitution
or the United States. The con sLitutfon
expressly stated that duties should be
levied simply for the purpose of main
tanning the government.
Tine Republican party talks about
tariff to protect American industries and
the American laboring man." said he,
but does this tariff protect American
industries and the American laboring
man. No, but 1t does protect American
invested capital at the expense OF the
great masses of the American peoole.
The Democratic party believes in tariff
and protection, but what we want the
tariff to protect is not the Invested capi-
tai, but the efforts of the every day labor-
ing man in the country" (Appiause)
Inc Congressman then scored the Re-
publican party for its record in giving
the Western lands which belonged TO the
people to the railroads. A Democratic
bill had been introduced which would
give these lands to the people to whom
they rightly belonged, but the bill after
going through Congress is now sIumber-
Ing In Republican Senate. The speaker
next dwelt on the diobalical Force Bill
aud said he feared that the Republicans
were about to adopt severe measures to
carry this State. He deplored the fact
that United States Commissioners Muir
held was not alive. He said that the
present Commissioner, Thomas McEwan,
intended TO send supervisors among the
voters whom no one knew and he was
afraid that some dirty tricks were to be
attempted.
The Congressman concluded by asking
those present to vote the eutira Demo-
cratic ticket. When he mentioned DR..
Stouts name the cheering lasted for
some time. As the Congress nan finish ed
speaking, Judge DAILY enter ed The hall
and was accorded a hearty welcome.
Colonel K. Murphy followed Congress
man Mcdonald. The other speakers
were Judge Daily and Judge McGrath.
