GROWTH OF 100 YEARS.

Slack water on the Muskingum
which came in 1887. was hailed as a
harbinger OF great progress and pros
perity. The lock was placed on the
Harmar side and II was thought that
Harmar was the coming town. So they
went up to Columbus when the Legis-
lature was in session in that year and
procured separate charter for the
village OF Harmar That however,
was greatly oyerestimated and moth
ing much came of il. although slack
water navigation for the Muskingum
valley and the State OF Ohio was a
grand thing, but did not help the In
corporated Village OF iiarmas much.
Then came the rallroad era. The
proposition was to build line from
Hellaire 70 Cincinnati via Marietta.
