ROwLEsBURG& PARSONS II. r. co
The Cheat River Route Again Draws
Attention. THE Right Of Way
Secured Engineer at work.

From the Parsons Advocate.
A new Company has been char
tered to build Railroad up Cheat
river from Rowlesburg to Parsons,
to be known as the Rowlesburg and
Parsons Railroad Company. The
distance between the two poin, is
az miles, and last week they put six
men on the route to secure the right
of way, which they succeeded in
doing. The men worked from
Rowlcsburg up, Albert Wilt and /.
S. Anvil from St. George down un.
till they met the two from Rowles-
burg, and Attorneys a Jay yalcn-
teine and J. d. Ware worked from
st. George to Parsons. The right
OF way contracts arc void unless
work is commenced on the road
within one year from date, and the
agreement is to pay so much for
the right of way when the road is
located. They are taken in the
name Of John r. McGraw, as trustee.
and the company is composed of
McGraw and Eastern capitalists
whose names are not now made
public. An engineer corps is now
working from Rowlesburg this way
locating the grade.
The indications are that the
company means business that they
mean to put the railroad through,
and do it Immediately, and will be
watched with interest. It will mean
much to Parsons IL it is done, and
much to the entire county. The
road will probably be extended on
down the river to Pittsburg, and
thus connect US direct with the great
iron city.

The Journal remarked recently
that Dewey had not been invited to
the coronation of the Spanish King.
l, might also have remarked that
no other Democrat was invited,
either to the Spanish or the English
coronation. In fact, the Democrats
are not in the coronation business.
We went out of that of business in
1916, and have kept out ever since.
Can the Republican administration
say az much ?
