TRACTION CO. May
WIN RIGHT OF WAY
ON THE RIVER ROAD
Change of Sentiment in Ewing Township
Points to Victory for New Trolley
SOME OPPOSITION REMAINS

During the past week trolley senti-
ment in Ewing township has changed
to such an extent that it is now almost
an assured fact that the Delaware Val
ley Traction Company will secure the
right of way on the river road TO build
"A trolley system between Trenton and
Iambertville.
The Ewing tsp. comm ttee met last
objections to the proposed granting of
a franchise through that township to
the trolley company. At that meeting
there was objection SO strong and we'll
defined as to warrant the conclusion
that the trolley line, at this time at
least, would not be built on the river
road from point near Jacobs creek 10
Lambertville.
From reliable source it is learned
that the trolley company ) agents have
secured the consent of tifly-one per ct.
of the property owners who live along
the river rood from Jacobs Creek TO
'ritusville. This proportion is all that
is required by law, and having ma
jority of the consents ,of the freehold
ers, nothing remains In the way of the
carrying out of the original plans of
the company.
There are two objections at this time
who have homes along the river in
Ewing township, John IL. Scudder
and Charles Maddox. These men OBJ
jeet to the trolley because they declare
the river road is in many places too
narrow TO allow the operation of n rail-
road and at the same time permit the
use of the highway for wagon traffic.
The plan of the company is to build
the road on the side of the highway
nearest to the feeder. This would leave
all driveways clear.
Those in favor Of the trolley contend
that the ears would have no more
frightening effect on horses than the
steam ears, which are now operated on
the side of the feeder between that
stream and the river. They also main
tain that after the river road is ma
cadamized ii will be largely used for
automobile traffic and in view of this
fact, say that the addition of the troll
ley would not make the situation much
worse for horses.
The Delaware Valley Traction Com
pany has already been granted fran
chise through Hopewell township and
its route along the river road as far MS
Titusville IL assured.

Laid to Rest.

There was a very large attendance of
sorrowing relations and sympathizing
friends at the funeral services of Rich
ard Mcdowell from his late residence
on Cottage Hill on Friday afternoon
last. The funeral was also attended
by many officials and employees of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Co, and by
the members of Amwell Lodge, No. -,
f. 4 A. NJ, and LEM Lenape Lodge,
/. O. o. F.. of which he was a member
As mark of respect the z. r. Il. re-
pair shops were closed during the
afternoon. Rev. II. A. MacKubbin,
of the First Presbyterian Church, con
Quoted the religious services. The
floral offerings, which were many and
unusually fine, gave mute, but eloquent
testimony to the appreciation of the
living for him, who was laid to rest.
Funeral director LaBaw was in charge.
The interment was made at Mt. Hope
Cemetery.

The happiness of homo life depends
largely on the health of the wife and
mother. When her strength is unequal
to the daily cares and duties of home,
the evening hour finds her utterly worn
out, too tired to talk, too weary to read.
AT first even she is glad to have her
husband go out for the evening. She
wants rest and quiet at any price. And
so the foundation for marital misery 10
often laid in ill-health.
But when the housewife is healthy
and strong she finds In her days duties
only sufficient outlet for her energy,
She looks forward all day to the evening
hour spent with her husband over a
book, or passed III quiet conversation
And every evening so spent draws the
wife nearer to the husband and knits
together the twain who are tone fleshD
III the higher unity of one mind.
Every woman should know that the
general health depends on the local
womanly health. frregularity, weaken
ing drains, inflammation, liberation and
female weakness are disorders which sap
the woman's strength and destroy her
happiness with her health.
In ninety-eight cases in every hundred
the use of DIR. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription will effect complete cure of
womanly diseases. 1t is reliable regu-
lator. 1t dries the drains which enfeeble
women. 1t heals inflammation and ul-
ceration and cures female weakness. II

GETTING BETTER
Old Timers Say Fishing Will
Soon Be Good in
the Lake.

Fishing in Lake Bemidji for
the past few weeks has been
rather poor, but is now getting
better ,Itis never good during
the hot summer season, but
good sport is always to be OBJ
tanned in the early fall. Old
timers say that within a week OF
two fish will bite eagerly, and
there will be little difficulty con
nected with catching a good
string. A good many rock bass
are being caught just now,
though they are to be found only
in certain spots in the lake.

Likely That Eleven Com
panies will be Dropped
From State Militia.
FELL BELOW STANDING AND MAY
BE MUSTERED OUT.
This will Leave Vacancies and
Make Opening for Bemldji
Company.

Bemidji's independent military
company has very good chance
of getting into Minnesota Nation.
al G uard even sooner than had
been hoped for. It now looks as
though several companies in the
state will be dropped from the
organization, which will leave
vacancies for others.
Results of the government in
spection of the Minnesota Nation
al Guard by Captain Dyer, of the
regular army, have not been
given to the public. The inspec-
tion was made prior to the sum-
mer encampment, and the figures
have been in the hands of
Adjutant General Libby for
several weeks.
1t is understood that eleven
companies of the guard fell be-
low IS per cent in their mark
ings, and under the law this
means that they should be mus
tered out. This is a very poor
showing, and means either that
the companies so marked were
sadly run down, or that the in
spector marked too rigidly and
too closely. Under the state law,
unless a company reaches the
standard of IS, it must be
dropped from the rolls.
These markings are trans
mitted to Washington, as the in
spection of the National Guard is
now made under the terms of
the new National; Guard law. The
unfortunate thing about the poor
showing made is that the state
is now getting it's quota of sup.
plies from the government under
that law, and the distribution is
made on the basis of the number
of men in the service. That
number has already been deter
mined, and the inspection results
may make no change, especially
if the authorities delay action.
