be gone through with and both LIST and
I'd Regiments will have full companies.
Adjutant General Richards has careful
ly considered all the points made for To-
eating the company. Not the slightest
advantage or disadvantage that would
come in placing the company has been
disregard To give each bit of evidence
the proper weight has taken some time
but after each point had been considered
General Richards came to the conclusion
that no better place could be selected
than Pennington.
The men who are to compose the or
Sanization are just the right kind to
make a strong, stable company. ana who
will be an honor to the militia In fact
they are of the kind General Richards
wishes to see in the regiments all over
the State.
Ever since General Richards has been
in office he has striven TO raise the stand
ard of the militia. That he has been sue
cessful is shown by the character of those
who have been enlisted. And now. the
men will command the respect Of every
one. In fact the day is long passed when

terested in the militia have been anxious
To see the companies made up of soldiers
as thorough as General Richards himself
and while it would almost be impossible
to find such men. yet they are approach
ing that standard.
The men who are to make up the Farm

NOT A DREAM.
Work Will Begin, Next Week,
on Togus Electric Road.
Promoters Take Handful of Times
Front Hair.
Appeal Will Cause Only Temporary Suspension
OF the Work

We shall begin work on the Angus
ta-ToguS electric road next week -
That was the statement Amos F. Ger
aid made to Il Journal reporter. yester-
day noon. ut the Maine Central sta
ton.
If Mr.. Gerald had simply said that
he was thinking Of putting a new
break on one Of the electric cars he
could not have appeared less uncon-
ccrned or acted as though he thought
the movement was of less moment.
The question. however is one that has
had the people of the city by the ears
for several months. In fact hardly
day has passed when some of those in
tercstcd have not been asked. rs there
any thing new in the electric road?"
To Mr.. Gerald the undertaking Of the
enterprise seemed Of but little moment
and it is perhaps. when the many other
enterprises H., has put through 50 sue
cessfuily are considered. He was lean
ing up against a post at the railroad
station and to every one who came
along he had the same answer.
Mr.. Gerald did not have very much
to say about the construction Of the
iVdu. " 4itii dHh'b "b'ut pi' N'i rs
said that the crew would probably be
put to work on all parts Of the line.
The first work to be done will be the
grading, ana the men Will be distribut-
Cd everyW here 50 that they may work
TO the best advantage.
What about the appeal from the de-
Cision of the railroad commissioners? ?
asked IA Journal reporter.
We are going ahead just as though
nothing of the sort were possible. If
an appeal is taken ana that cannot be
done for some time. then we Will be 50
much further along with the work. The
thing We are going to do is to build the
road If NE can't complete it, this
wear. we can next. and when spring is
fairly opeued we shall have the bed
ready for having the rails"
The details of arranging for the
meeting of the city government when
the petition for a location will be given
will be made by the people in this city
who are interested in the project.
Everywhere that the move to build
was made known there was q general
rejoicing. From the first there have
been a few who have not mad any
faith that the road would be built.
Others have believed that it would
come in the course of time, but there
have been very many who have had
the utmost faith from the very first
that the road would he built ana that
right away. one Of the greatest fears
has been that if the scheme were
dropped. this year, it would be dropped
for All time. ana that Augusta people
would stin be obliged to 60 down to
Gardiner by the Electric Road ana the
Kcnncbe, Central to get to Togus The
