Replying to an item in the En-

son that he start a stage line on that

directly or indirectly with this route

is talking about and wishes to explain
the situation. Go back, say 10 years,
and there was as good a stage 1.-The to

you would want fine tooth comb to
find any estate that they left behind
1 would like to meet the man who
would agree to operate stage line on
this route every day and for all trains
If he can be found, will present him
with two Concord stage coaches to
start business with. What we want is
Hon Nicholas Staubs pet trolley line
which he has talked so much about
and has again asked the Legislature
for an extension of time in which to
let the surrounding young timber get
large enough for ties. We don't want
any stage or hungry livery proprietors.
We do want a modern trolley with fare
five cents for as many miles. Then
how happy the stranger and all of us
would be? In my "a years in the bust
ness have not known stage proprie-
tor around here, who, when he had the
misfortune to lose horse, had money
enough saved up to purchase a new
one, but had to purchase with long
winded note. A good business but few
