Notes of the Railroads.

MUGS vi tuC NALL UduSs
Mr.. J. W. Cook, division superin-
tendent of the Norfolk & Western
Railway, was in Shepherdstown last
Saturday on business. We hope that
Mr.. Cook noted, while he was here,
the evident need of new passenger
or freight station at this point. He
cannot but concede it to be fact that
to transact the business of town as
large as this through the medium of
an old freight car on side-track Is
reflection on the company and an in
convenience to the people that ought
to be remedied at once. If mere In
convenience carries no weight, how
ever, it must also be considered that
the present arrangement is a constant
menace to the lives and limbs of the
passengers, who are compelled to walk
the narrow alley between the cars to
get on the trains. Give US nice new
passenger station, Mr.. Cook, and use
the old one as freight depot.
1t looks like going backward to see
the passenger trains on the Norfolk &
Western Railway reduced from six to
four each day, Trains 5 and 6 were
not of much local service on this end
Of the line because of the inconvenient
hours at which they passed, but some
times they came in very handy. One
of the most popular trains on the \.
g. W. some years ago was that which
passed Shepherdstown about three
clock in the afternoon, making close
connection with the Western Maryland
road at Hagelstown for Baltimore.
The Western Maryland still runs its
fast train from Hagerstown at four
o o'clock. We venture the assertion that
a connection with it would be profta-
BILE to the n. Il w.
The Winchester & Potomac Rail
road, which extends from Harper's
Ferry to Winchester, 80 miles will
pass into possession Of the Baltimore
& Ohio Railroad Company the lst Of
April, its stockholders having agreed
to sell their stock at par to the latter
company. 1t is announced that in the
event the B. & O. cannot lease from
the Southern Railroad on favorable
terms the line between Strasburg and
Harrisonburg, a new road Twill be built
between those places, paralleling the
Southern.
The abrogating of two trains on the
n. & W. Railway leaves two full pas
senger crews unprovided with work.
The running of the crews has not yet
been adjusted, each taking turn in
going out, but unless other trains are
added there will necessarily have to
be a number of reductions in rank.
Some of the men from this end may
be transferred to other divisions Of the
road.
The pay-car will make but one more
trip over the B. & 0. Railroad. 1t has
been decided to do away with this
system and the employees will be paid
off with checks distributed by the sta
ton agents.

Promotions in the Second Regiment.

The Greenville Is. g. Daily Nelcs
says that First Sergeant A. NJ. S. Nor
gan, Second West Virginia, has been
promoted to second lieutenant of COM
pany NJ, taking the place of Lieuten-
ant Henshaw, promoted to lst lieu
tenant, vice Kemble White, promoted
to captain in place Of Henry c. Getz-
endanner, who resigned to serve as
State Senator. Mr.. Morgan is the
son of the late Col. William a. Nor
gan, who commanded the celebrated
lst Confederate Virginia Cavalry Regl-
uent. The Second West Virginia is
now in command of Major Atkinson,
in the absence Of Colonel Casteel and
Lieut. Col. Moore, who are in Wash
ington on business connected with the
muster out.
The regiment will be mustered out,
we are informed, on the 10th Of April
next.

CITIZENS TICKET.

The question Of license or no license
to sell liquor was also submitted to
the voters, and the result was a sur
prise to the temperance workers, who
appear to have been somewhat indit-
ferent or over-confdent, for the "wets
won by nine majority. The vote stood
81 for license and So against. There
has been no saloon in Shepherdstown
since 1895, the dry voters having won
each election since that year. 1t Is
likely now that we will have one or
two after the May term of court, but
the high license required will proba-
bly, be a discourager to any large
number. The State tax is $3.50, the
corporation tax 500, and the U. S.
tax $25.
The council that has been reelected
will, we are sure, continue to give sat-
i.faction to the people. Their admin
istration the past year has been wise
and judicious, and many improve
ments of a permanent character are
attributable to them. We hope to
see continuance of their progressive
nolicv.

Town Goes Wet-Old Ticket Elected.

The annual corporation election was
held in shepherdstown last Monday,
1t was not wildly exciting. COmpar-
atively little interest was manifested,
though the partisans of the various Is
sues worked earnestly, if quietly, dur
ing the day. There were two tickets
in the field, the taxpayers and the
citizens. The latter was victorious,
all of the candidates being members
of the old council except ]. D. Bill
myer was substituted for ". n. Lem
en-, who declined to run. The vote
was as follows:

Taxes Unpaid.

lakes Uupdlu'
The administrators of Col. W. A.
Morgan's estate are going over his
accounts as deputy sheriff, and some
interesting facts are being brought to
light. Some persons have permitted
their taxes to run on until it will be
serious problem for them to pay
what is due without selling their prop
erty. A number Of landowners IN
this district owe back taxes to the
amount of $500 and upwards, some of
them reaching as high as 81 900 and
81 200, and running back nearly ten
years. The administrators, Of course,
will have to collect all these debts, as
they cannot afford to be as indulgent
as the Colonel was. COL Morgan $
estate is estimated to be worth from
$4,000 to $4,000.
