GOOD FOR MORGAN DISTRICT.

Now Let Valley District Follow Suit.
Here is an extract from the
MorgantOwn DAILY Dominion on
the big rail road bond election over
there last Saturday.
The election on Saturday for III Q
sGOicrIp ION tn the stock Of the
Morganiown and Kingwood rail.
roai company resulted in ratiti =
cation OF the proposition by ma
Jorlty that was simply immense.
1t had one hundred and ninety
more votes than was needed to
have the three-fifth majority re
CURED by law. But thirty more
votes would have gwen it four
hfths Of the votes IN favor Of the
plan.
This was on full vote. Every
vote ia the district was cast with
but very few exceptions. There
was a larger vote cast by seventy
than there was in the general cleo
ton for Congressman at tho last
election. This will serve to show
the interest that was taken.
The vote in every precinct showed
more than the necessary three
fifths majority.
Morgan District stands on record
by within four votes Of 80 PEI cent
OF the total vote in favor of the
Deckcr's Creek r. II.
The vote in each Of the pre-
cincts on the plan was:

CHEAT RIVER RAIL ROAD

Point Marion is TO Lose the Big Saw
MIL Plant Pretty Soon Last Log
Sawed up on Wednesday on
the Cheat River Railroad has Be-
gun Force OF men Began to Move
Dirt ON Thursday.
From the Morgautown Daily Dominion.
The work Of the Dewing and
Sons plant at Point Marion IS done
and they are ready to turn over
the mill to the new owners. The
last log was sawed on Wednesday
and the mill is now shut down.
The town is very sorry to see it 90
as it has been the chief mainstay
OF the place, but other plants will
take it's place.
The Dewings have bought a large
amount Of timber land in the
southern part of the state and they
will locate on it in the very near
future.
Work was begun on the new
Cheat railroad short distance
above Point Marion on Thursday
morning. a force of men with
teams began to grade. The chief
engineer on the road Mr.. j. j.
Janeway of Plttsburg. was down to
start the work and it IS now under
full head way.
a larger force will be put on
shortly and as little time AS pos
sible will be lost in putting the
road on up the river. The survey
ors have entered the Wilderness to
Parsons where the connection 10
made with the West Virginia Cen
trail.
The final location has been made
on the lower river last winter and
this is the first work Of construc
ton that has been begun. The
Indications are that the construc-
ton will not be long delayed, and
before very many months the en-.
gines will be running up the banks
Of the rugged Cheat. Many people
have thought that the road would
not be built at all but they can now
see that it is going through.
Its effect on Morgantown will
not be very good as 1T will divert
trade from the Cheat section down
the valley but we can afford it by
building the Decker's Greek Rail-
road.

From The wheeling Re gister.

won notable victory in favor Of
this State and its people, in the
matter OF the location OF the Green
brler river railroad, which has
been agitating the eastern

the counties of Green rier and
Pocahontos, on the one part, and

the Chesapeake aud Ohio road, on
the other, Mr.. McGraw, acting for
landowners in the counties named,
agrees to furnish right Of way
and pay all resulting costs and

line Of the Chesapeake and Ohio,
TO the forks Of the Green brier river,
in Pocahontas county, a distance
Of ninety six miles, and also con-
veys to the Railway Company one
half interest in certain Pocahontas
county lands and the marble quar-.
ries. In return the Chesapeake
aud Ohio agrees to build the pro-
posed road, and havo il com pleted
as far as Warrington by October
LIST.
This is nn improvement which
will mean much to the people Of
the country traversed, and they
and Col. McGraw alike are to be
congratulated upon the success
achieved.
