THERE is no question about the
vast benefit the railroad from here to
district. Thousands of dollars annu-
ally would be added to our trade.
Nothing could be done that would do
more toward building up the town
than the construction of the road.
THE question of the railroad bonds
is now before the people and they
will pass on it on June tenth. Val
ley District will have another chance
at the proposition and another line
may finally be added to the one we
already have in this county.
THE bicycle on which G. w. Sample
took the header a few days ago the
details of which were given by US at
the time has reached town. The
wheel was sight for gods and men
and how it kept from being torn en-
tirely TO pieces is a mystery. The
man must have had terrible fall.
THE legal question involved in the
bond proposition is said by those who
are against the plan to be very decid-
eddy against the issue Of the bonds.
! The people favoring it state that the
question has nothing in it and that
they have not the slightest fears but
that they will be able to carry it
through all right.
THE abolition of wharfage has
been agitated in every council for
years and it is now an established
fact. This will not place any tax on
boats coming to Morgantown and
will induce many more to make this
place than have been coming on &C
count of the tax. 1t is step in
harmony with the freeing of the
bridge and will do much to help the
town in the way of attracting people
here through another avenue.
