SMALL CANE IN HIGHLAND.
Proposed Extension Of n Railway Which
May Pass Though the County.

May Pass Though the County.
MONTERREY, VA, December 6-(Spe-
clal. )--our merchants are still handling
an immense quantity OF small game, such
az rabbits, pheasants. and quails. Thou
sands are being marketed here. and II
looks as though not one would be left.
Our mountain boosters sell everything
they kill from the woodchuck to the
bear, and rarely ever consume anything
In the game line.
We hear a rumor OF a proposed ex-
tension OF the West Virginia Central
railroad, and In such event 1t may pass
through this county. but Highland Is the
victim OF one railroad swindle. and II Is
useless for any company to ask for
subscription. However, the West Vir-
g.nia Central is a company that asks no
assistance. and we hope the report Is true.
Mrs. Dougherty and Mrs. Moomau. OF
Franklin, w. Va. were the guests or
Hon. Charles p. Jones this week.
Treasurer Jared A. Jones is In Nom
terey on his annual tax-collecting round.
Miss Hattie Cleek. OF Cleek's Mil,
Bath county, Is visiting friends In this
place.
l.. s. Dickinson, one Of our merchants.
has returned from Baltimore. where he
was selling a carload OF turkeys. He
reports that the Thanksgiving market was
glutted.
Rev. Waters, of Franklin, w. Va, de-
livered an able discourse at the Methodist
church on Tuesday night.
Little Is being said at this late day re-
garding the election. but I understand
that Yost is preparing hiG papers for con-
test. There Is also considerable 'specu-
lation as to who will be candidates for
county offices next spring.
