regard to railroad from Farmington
to Augusta very much interests the
citizens OF this and adjoining towns
Starting from Augusta it would prob
ably pass through Manchester, East
Winthrop, Baileyville, Winthrop, North
Wayne, Kerat's Hill ana within c1e

Vernon, Mt Vernon, Vienna. New
Sharon, Pennington Falls to Farming

ington ana Phillips road.

had Tor years, as all the towns In this
section instead CT going to lewiston to
DO their shopping, ETC.. would take the
shorter route to Augusta.
Would It not be better for the towns
and citizens along this route to assist In
building this road than to put their
money in shoe factories or some such
business that might run for a few years
and then close up on account OF strikes
or hard times, as they have done in SO
many places before?
If the people along the road want II
let them put shoulder TO the Wheel 7
and life and keep lifting and 1t must
so. Let all who are interested agitate
it and soon we shall hear the welcome
sound OF the whistle through these
towns. Let us hear from others now,
and If we all take hold it is sure to go.
