RAILWAY FRANCHISE
GRANTED BY COUNCIL
The TyIer.WetzeI Electric Company Successful
in It's Undertaking. The Proper Spirit
Shown by Our Citizens.

No obstacle should be thrown In
the way af the new enterprise and
we again predict that the project
will bring new life and Interest In
the city.
We are informed by Mr.. Miller
the promoter and general manager
of the road, that his company will
have cars running into the city
limits within few months and will
connect Sistersville with Brooklyn,
of which New Martinsville IS a
suburb, at rapid speed. 1t Is the
object of the company to at once be
GIN the grading of streets at Paden
City, thee miles north, and begin
the erection of dwellings and the
establiug OF factories at the new
town. No one will dare say that
Sistersville will not be benefited.
Those employed on the new road
will have to live. Our merchants
will reap their reward and our
business will be doubled within a
comparatively short while. Thou
sands of dollars will pour into the
cCfers of laborers employed by the
company and we look forward to
seeing Paden City and the greatest
town on earth In the same corpor
ate limits In the near future.
Poor old Martinsville; she has lost
or will soon dispense with her
, courthouse. Pine Grove has stolen
the only building of any conse-
q1ence In the moss back village
and her people, as In the past, will
again sleep beneath the sod while
prosperity and enterprise Is felt
In, close proximity. Wakeup, old
sister 'ere the fountain of hope has
like the Arab, folded It's tent and
quietly passed you by.
Daily we are asked If the Mid
dlebourne line will be built. We
have contended all along that 1t
would, and we now say that our
country brethren will soon be able
to stop the trolley and spend a
pleasant evening within the border
of the most wide-awake city along
the river. Mr. Miller, we welcome
you and yours to our city; may you
prosper with US and grow rich In
worldly goods as we'll as the en-
dorsement of our entire people.

Pursuant to adjournment, the
council met In special session last
night to consider the granting OF a
franchise to the er-Wetzel Rail
way company. At the meeting
appeared council for the railway
company as we'll as the financial
representatives of the project and
satisfied the city fathers that moth
ing but business was meant and
that the road would be built to
completion before the summer ends.
The old franchise was discarded
and a new ordinance prepared and
after several hours argument by
attorneys on both sides, was passed
with a few minor amendments,
the substance of which gives the
railway company the rights to
build and operate an electric road
through the streets Of the city
without compensation. We have
contended heretofore that Sisters
Vile would do othe right thing by any
company which showed a prop
er spirit and now we
are convinced that the cou0cil
only labored for the benefit OF the
people and not from personal mo-
tives. The motion was made and
carried that the question of starting
the work In the city limits be l. # to
the city engineer and street COM
mittee and doubtless the privilege
asked for by the company's con-
tractor will be given. Contractor
Tennis desires to have permission
to begin work In the city limits
north of the B. & o. tracks near
where the railroad crosses Wells
street in order that the material
may be easily handled. The con-
mittee has power to act and doubt
less will aid the railway people In
every possible manner not incon'
sistent with the best interests oi
the city.
The building of the road between
this city and Brooklyn Is an assured
fact. The contractors with large
portion of the material are here
they mean business and will at once
commence the grading of the road

After the band had rendered q

served with an abundance of good
