1t was reported last week that owing
To trouble between the contractors, j.
ii. Mclean q Co., the sub contractors,
Fausey aud Beecham threw up their
contracts, Benham refusing To quit
leaving quite number of men unpaid,
and VIM. Alden Smith telegraphed MIR.
Clark to pay the men Saturday, if not
paid before. The truth is as we are
informed, Beecham did not throw up
his contract, it was Fausey and Ben
ham and they moved their plant and
tools out Of the county Sunday in the
rain. Beecham is working as before,
with full crew of men and teams, and
so far as we can learn the men are well
satisfied with him and the bosses and
all feel sure Of their pay.
We are not posted much on railroad
building matters, but one thing we be-
lieve, viz, such men as VIM. Alden
Smith, w. III. Clark and their associ
ate officers are not going To see rail
road workers beat out OF their hard
earnings, and we don't think X
Beecham is of that kind OF stripe, il he
don't make cent himself. All along
the line the company has done its
best to satisfy without trouble for
right-of-way; OF course it would get
through as cheap as possible, but we
have heard old people remark that
they never knew railroad company
to pay as liberal for right OF way as 1t
has done, being fair and manly in all
its dealings.
