THE RAILROAD.

VIII the railroad benefit High
land county? Let us take a broad
and unselfsh view Of the question.
Broadness Of view and unselfSh-
ness lead men to the point that
where the majority are benefited by
any enterprise it is therefore bene-
fetal. This is a fact admitted by
all. The first question is, how do
we know that the railroad will BEN
eft the majority of our citizens?
First proof, the impartial testi-
mony of men who have been with
out railroads and then have had
railroads. What saith these?
Take the state Of Maryland with a
network of railroads. perhaps as
fine railroad facilities as any state
in the Union, and when a new one
is spoken of, the people are more
enthusiastic than if they had no
railroads, not only ready to give
free passage through their valuable
lands, but ready to subscribe, and
that literally, with their means.
Take the sectionof country between
Washington and Baltimore, a
trucking country, lands yielding
yearly one hundred and more dol
lars per acre, with two railroads
running through it, the B. & O.
and the B. & P, with trains run
ming every half hour daily, each
way: and yet through the most de-
sirable part of that section-land
worth from one to two hundred
dollars per acre-the people are ex-
ceedingly anxious to have an cleo
trio railroad and are doing all they
can to get it. They see The value
of railroads after years of expert
ence. The fact is when people learn
by practical experience the value
and advantage Of any good thing,
the more they have the more they
want, ..> T.
T. Now what is true of Maryland
is true of all people who have the
benefits Of railroads. We have new
er known any people conversant
with railroads, and that are being
the recipients Of the multitudinOus
benefts and advantages of the
same, to oppose them:
1t is a notorious fact, and one
that cannot be overthrow, that
railroads are the great developing
factors of every country. No
country can be properly developed
without railroads. Take the great
West. What has made it what it is?
The railroad. OF what value would
all of it's undeveloped resources
have been but for: the railroad?
What has made all our Virginia
cities? What is it that draws all
the trade from Highland and Po-
Highland recorder. (Monterey, Highland County, Va.) 1877-1972, 1895-09-06


cahontas to Staunton? Let the
cars stop running to Staunton for
eighteen months and let her sleep
undisturbed by the whistle of the
engine, and see the immediate re-
suit. And What is true Of Staun-
ton is true of every city. The bet
ter the railroad facilities the more
enterprising and prosperous the
city. Why is Stanton so much
alarmed and aroused about the pro-
posed road through Highland? Be
cause she wants Highlands trade
and Highlands money.
Why not get a railroad and make
Monterey great central trading
point? Let the energy, the pride
and the enthusiasm Of Highlands
citizens be concentrated in their
county town and make Of it what
it ought to be. There is really no
real push and enterprise on the
part Of our people without a rail
road. No factories, no business Of
any magnitude can be carried on
without the advantages and abso-
lutely needed help that comes from
a railroad. Get on the B. & 0. at
Washington city and go west to
Chicago, and see what the railroad
has done. Would there be a Chi
cago but for the railroad? The
almost countless railroads touching
this great city are it's very founda-
ton.
The native Chinese and Japan
csc, seeing and knowing that our
railroads have made us what We
are in wealth, culture and refine
ment, are now opening up their
empire by railroads. Any man
must see and know, if he be broad
minded and public-spirited, that to
connect his interest and theinterest
of his people with the trading
world is Of incalculable good.
We, perhaps, will speak again Of
this subject and show some Of the
real benefits that will come to the
people of Highland, if they want
them TO come and will let them
come, by doing what they can to
get a railroad. EUREKA.

A SENSIBLE VIEW.
Build up the County Seat and
You Build up the County.

SAA~
DR.. T. II. B. B. Brown, of Bridge
water, recently wrote an article Tor
the Rockingham Register, under
the above heading, which is so ap-
propriate for some of our Highland
readers that we have reproduced it
in full. 1t is as follows:
"The prosperity and upbuilding
of the county-town should receive
the cordial support of every person
Of the county. Every good citizen
should feel just pride in his coun-
ty seat. Corporations should be
resorted to and a long and strong
pull, a pull together, should be the
aim of all. Is this the case in the
large and wealthy county Of Rock
ingham? Have the good people OF
this county the building up of Har-
risonburg at heart? Do they fully
appreciate the indisputable fact
that all moneys expended and that
every effort put forth to that end
will return to them four-fold?
Do they know that should their
county town grow to the proper
lions of good sized inland city
that it, in proportion, would fur
nish a home market for many OF
the farm products that are NV
thrown away or else entirely ignor-
ed IN The raising? 1t has been
said that Harrisonburg can never
become place Of much size owing
to the scarcity OF water. Such a
premise in these modern days Of
science is entirely untenable. Bya
proper effort and a rational and Ju-
dicious expenditure Of money, wa
ter to supply population Of a hun
dred thousand persons for culinary
and drinking purposes can be Oh
tanned. Everywhere else i'll this
great Valley this essential nee
essary article can and has been OBJ
tanned, and why not in HARRISON
burg?
Much is being said on this sub
iect by the local papers Of the place
and the question Of an abundant
supply Of water seems TO be agi-
tating the minds Of the more
thoughtful of its citizens, but no
tangible position has yet been
evolved. A random discussion Of a
question rarely produces effect.
United action and a business-like
cooperation produce results. A
bination Of energy and effort.
added to which alittGe filthy lu-
ere" will build you up. Nothing
more; nothing less. We are not to
be understood as debating a course
to be- pursued by the highly intclli-
gent business men in harrisonburg
but hope to be excused on Cne
grounds Of the deep interest we feel
in the prosperity and building up
of the place. 4 word before we
stop to the citizens Of the county,
Take a pride in your county town.
Hold up it's hands. Do what you
can in sustaining and supporting
every legitimate enterprise that
may spring up within its corporate
limits. If you yourselves are the
inhabitants Of q town Or village,
have no fear that in the building up
and promoting the interest OF your
county-seat you will injure Or dis
parage the interests Of your own
town.
