IAN right. The company will have

Dan Sparkling had learned that unless
backed by strong guard it is un.
wise to oppose desperate men. How
ever, there had been no trouble on the
line for long while, and he expected
to get the treasure through safely.
He was disappointed. About 9 o'clock

did in dark places. a head appeared

tried to rein in his horses. at the same

throwing it into the wood. The horses
had struck n down grade, and although
Dan put OIL the brakes. he was unable
to stop them until he reached the bot
tom. Then, not hearing anything OF
the road agent. he concluded to drive
on.
An hour later. while he was feeling
very downcast at the prospect of re-
porting the loss, blaming himself for
his haste in throwing out the box, ami
the company for risking so much mon-

stepped into the road before him. Each

the road agents. who were after the

Dan:

Monterey, Va, Friday, Jan. II, 1902

The constitutional convention
has done but one thing that con-
Germs Highland in particular, and
that is in the arrangement OF the
counties in judicial circuits. And
that one thing our people will not
like one bit. Instead of placing
Highland where it naturally be-
longs with Augusta and hooking
ham or both we have been tackled
onto Bath, Allegheny, Craig and
Botetourt-a long string with
Highland at the little end.
Members OF the convention
,QuarleS and Keezle knew where
Highland property belonged and
favored it's being placed with Au-
gusta, but our representative. Mr.
Anderson would have it the other
way. From this it seems that dis
interested parties have been more
mindful Of our interests than our
own representative, and Me- sers.
Quarles and Keczle deserve the
thanks of the Highland people.

rails laid as far as Mt SOlCn and
already freight is being shipped in
car load lots from Messy Creek Sta
ton. The delay in obtaining rails
was caused by the inability Of the
company to get cars to haul them
and this was only over come by
sending their own cars TO Johns
town and bringing the rails down.
1t is confidently expected that a
very active movement will be seen
along the line in the spring. as the
engineers are busily ut work in sew
eral places. This company has
made the first actual drmOnstra-
ton as to cost and route of railv av
through Highland into Pocahont;.s
yet made. 1t was always be lieved
that a road could be built at not
too great cost on the rout propos-
de, but no actual survey WAS ever
before made. The cost from the
mouth of the tunnel at North liiv-
err Gap to Frost, in Pocahontas
county, W Va is now pretty well
known at least Il yeiy accurate es-
innate can be made from the data
in hand. This is an immense work
in itself. If any one Tot believe
the statemen the should go into the
office of the company ut Harrison
burg and see what snch. Il survey
means. Then the next step will be
right of way. The persons who
own the land over which the road
is to pass can do much for them
selves, and their county and neigh
bmhood when these are asked If
they will act with liberalitv. A hide
bound, Stingy policy has often
d 'iven railroads out of sections and
towns, to the great loss of the p o.
pc. 1t is not safe thing to say
that "the road will be built anyhow

try as Highland. If 1t is built the
