ELECTRICLINE TO VIRO0UA
ARTICLES or INCORPORATION FILED FOR
The COMPANY
Line VIII be Built From La Crosse to vircqua sur
veyS For Which Have Been Comp peted-La Crosse
to be Made Center of Chain of Electric Railway
Lines

The following Appeared in The La
, Crosse papers and we reproduce it Tor
what it is worth:
Articles of Incorporation for the La
| Crosse and Eastern Railway company
have been filed with the s,-crstarv oi
state at Madison This wilt donbtless
mean that La Crosse is a coming center
for series OF interurban electric rail
ways The first OF all these will be
built TO Viroqua The purpose ot tht
new La Crosse aud Eastern Railway
company. as stated in its charter. is to
acquire. equip, lease maintain aud
operate by electricity or other power, .
street, suburban and interurban rail,
way, The incorporators of the com.
pany are Joseph Boschert, David II.
Palmer, James B. Taylor, John p. Reeve
and Z I, Higbee, aud the stock holders
will include list of La Crosse business
men and capitalists numbering at least
fifty and perhaps hundred.
Mr. f. G. Higbee. who draw and file1
the articles of Incorporation and who is
himself one of the incorporators, says of
the new enterprise: THE men who
have organized the La Crosse and East
erl Railway company have had the
project under confederation since early
last fall They have thoroughly inform
ed themselves in regard to the building
and operation of electric roads in differ
ent parts of the country, and after salts
flying themselves of the demand for such
road and the probable amount of bust
ness that it could fairly expect, they
employed an engineer who has gone over
the various proposed routes and upon
his report as to grades, distance, feasibil-
ity, etc, this corporation has been or.
ganized with capital sufficient to make
the necessary surveys and do the neces.
sary preliminary work and it will there
after increase the capital stock to such
an amount as may be found necessary
to put the road into operation Assur-
ance has been given of ample capital to
make it a success. "
For manifest reasons Mr. Higbee de-
clined to discuss the details as to the
routes suggested, but it is clear from the
statement of the purposes of the corpor-
alton that La Crosse is within the com
ing year to have direct and satisfactory
railway connection with Viroqua, and
all the rich country bevond that point
will ultimately be made tributary to
this city
The names attached to the articles Of
incorporation of the La Crosse and K st
ern Railway company are guarantee
OF Its solidity in every respect and the
enterprise ITSELF promises to be of great
er value TO the community than anv
other single project organized here with
IN dozen years.

Chasehurg Sees Visions.

EDITOR CENSOR Everyone in this
vicinity is elated over the prospects Of
an electric railroad connecting La Crosse
and Viroqua and intermediate villages
A line of this kind would certainly be a
great benefit both to the inland villages
and to Viroqua, as it would bring many
people to Viroqua that now go elsewhere,
and it would also benefit farmers along
the route fully as much as anyone and
should meet their hearty approval II
such line should be built it would only
be question of a short time when Viro.
qua and La Crosse would become the
suburbs of Chaseburg. OF course La
Crosse talks of having Chaseburg as a
suburb of their city, but wlen we get
that electric road we will compare La
Crosse to us about the same as she now
is to Chicago. We may not have quite
as large population as Chicago bu. will
feel much larger. c. E. WARD.

wanted me to write them about our trip
will send you few words you may pub
lish. We left Milwaukee on time as
scheduled, and have had the incest trip
Imaginable Our stay at the different
places has been very pleasant, as the
people are so kind The weather has been
cold and disagreeable until yesterday
and today. We have about such wealth
er as we have in May at home. Last
evening we left our friend and neighbor,
August Smith, at st Augustine at 8 p.

with him we spent the day in visiting
and looking over the old historic grounds
of that place, going down to the beach.
We leave this place for Savanna at $40

cannot say am very favorably i'm
pressed with the south. It is tie poorest
country las far as | have seem / ever
saw believe when ICet home will
think a great deal more of Wisconsin
than / ever did before. Climate is nice
but that is about tae stock in trade of
the south as far as we have visited. The
soil looks as poor as an old worn clay
road and the little small huts all along
tell the same story. / am quite content
to give my friends of the south my right
of way and viii place my money in
the more productive north of Wisconsin.
Our trip will last eight days longer. We
expect to return home well content to
take up our old work with renewed
vigor, and don't think l will grieve
much for the Sunny South.
Truly yours,

at their Viroqua factory during the year

made 73, 1877 pounds of butter. Average
price paid vvas 1Et cents per pound, max
ing $13, 731 a5. paid to patrons. Paid
out for labor, wood, milk hauling etc
So, 450. The above is not very large
showing for this territory. and we hope
the present year will make a record Of
one-third more. Will say to the posses
sors of hand separators that we are in
market for pure sweet cream, we guar
antee correct weights, tests and Elgin
market price. Why not patronize home
industry where you can get your butter
made for 4 cents per pound, instead of
shipping to other places where you have
to pay from cents to cents for the
same service.
