ANOTHER ROAD
Being Builtb by Promoters
On Paper.
1t Is to Connect With the Barberton
System.

During the. past year it is
said. electric railway promoters,
headed by w. A. Carver, of
Canal Dover, have been energetically
at work securing rights of way for a
line between Canal Dover and Massil-
Ion, and 1t is said, have at last been
successful, says the Urichsville Chron-
iclc. Last week Mr.. Carver succeeded
in securing franchises which close the
gap and makes possible the construc-
ton of the road. The same report says
the mony has been located with
which to build the road. The indi-
cations are that within tho coming
year most valuable district will be
reached by electric cars. The con
struction of this line will be the clos
ing gap between Uhrichsville and
Cleveland. 1t is said the line between
Massillon and Barberton Is assured.
The line between Akron, of which city
Barberton is suburb, and Cleveland,
has been in operation severaY years.
Hence, when Canal Dover and Bar
berton are linked, one may ride from
here to Cleveland on the electric cars.

barrett Says AmcrIa Must see TO its
Preservation.
Cincinnati, June N.-Hon. John Barrett,
ex-minister to Siam, was here to-day. Be
fore leaving for Cleveland he said:
In restoring peace in China the United
States should be the principal influence to
determine the future and the fate of China.
Ii is Americas influence only that can
successfully solve this problem and keep
China from an impending breakup.
America must stand for the integrity of
the Chinese Empire, for we have every
thing TO lose and nothing to gain by her
partition among the European Powers.
"On the other hand, If America allows
China to be divided the expansion of our
commerce and the extent of our moral in
fuence will be absolutely limited by the
attitude and policy of European nations.
Another interesting point Is this: The
United States is the only Power whose
leadership and dictation of policy Russia
would accept"
