FOR THE NEW TROLLEY.
What Some of the State Papers
Have to Say
FOR A MODERN ELECTRIC ROAD
THE CONSENSUS OF OPINION OF
BOTH PEOPLE AND PRESS is
THAT THE STATE NEEDS MORE
TROLLEYS.

TROLLEYS.
The Sussex Journal. one of the lead
ing Democratic newspapers of Sussex
county has the following editorial
reference to the Wilmington and New
Castle electric railway bill now held
40 in the House by the lobby at
Dover:
"As time goes on it becomes the
more apparent that the people of this
state need and demand such a system
Of railroading as can be provided by
the trolley system. The bill before the
Legislature Tor extending the trolley
line now running from Wilmington to
New Castle, on to Smyrna, is right
and proper. II is needed and demand
ed by the people, and the Legislature
should not hesitate a minute to pass It.
We understand the promoters of the
system of railways intend to extend
the system down through Dover. Mil
turd and other towns, on to Lewes and
ileh0bOth Such a system would be of
inestimable value to our farmers, who
would then be given easy, quick and
convenient communication with the
various towns in the state and with
Philadelphia. There can be no reason
able objection to having such system
of railroading in the state The people
want the trolley system and should
have it. This is essentially a farming
state. and the will of the farmers must
not be perverted by thoughtless legls-
lators"
The following editorial from the
state Sentinel, of Dover, explains It.

Canvass of several of the towns
along the line of the proposed trolley

unanimity of opinion in favor of the

that the people want the increased

why 1t should not be built. The people
ought to have what they want
