Work to be Resumed on More

A special from West Liberty
says: The proposed railroad from
Morehead to West Liberty seems
to be go. z. B. Carr, the man
ager, wired w. A. Young, the at
torney for the road, that the money
was secured and that work would
begin at once. There has been a
considerable amount of work done
on this road and some of the rails
are laid, but owing to financial af
fairs work had 20 be suspended for
a time The road traverses some
of the finest timber lands in the
world. 1t is believed 1t will con-
meet with the Ohio and Kentucky
railroad at Caney. The Caney can
mel coal fields are said to be the
largest in the world. The Caney
people are making a strong pull TO
get the road extended TO their
place. There has been a constant
flow of capitalists at West Liberty
for some time, and some large real
estate deals have been made.

From The Contests Of 1899.

Last week Dispositions were
taken in the case of George W.
Long. former chairman of the Re-
publican State Committee, against
Walter Day and Floyd Day, both
of jackson. Mr. Long is suing
Walter Day on a note for S1.0l0,
on which he claims Floyd Day is Sc
curity. The note was given while
the contests were on at Frankfort
in 1899, and Long claims that Floyd
Day indorsed the note. Walter
Days Endorsement was net on it.
He also claims that its payment
hinged upon the success of the con
tested election cases, he being the
claimant for State Treasurer, and
also that it was further agreed that
all the candidates should pay. The
document itself has been lost.
