Norfolk and Western Railroads.
Dream

The Washington correspondent
of the Richmond News-Leader, in
discussing the possibility that the
people Of Virginia will in a few
years have two more railroads,
the Wabash and the Norfolk and
Western, giving them direct pas
sage into Washington City, says:
The quickened zeal Of the Nor
folk and Western recalls how Scott,
who built the Shenandoah Valley
road, outwitted Garrett, of the
Baltimore and Ohio. The Garrett
interests started out to build a
road from Harper's Ferry to
Salem. About the same time the
Scott interests projected the Shen-
andoah Valley road, Ostensibly to
what was then WaynesborC juno
ton, OIL the Chesapeake and Ohio.
1t was built to that point, and it
was given out that there the road
would stop. About this time the
New York fever had struck Gar
rett, and his resources were all
directed to building the Baltimore
and Ohio to New York. His
motto became, "To New York or
bust" and we are told that he
narr, WY escaped doing both.
The Valley extension had reach
ed Lexington, and the grading
was almost complete to Salem. But
Garrett had everything tied up in
his New York project, and could |
do nothing more to extend the
Virginia road. And there Scott
recognized his chance, and no
sooner than he had done so he had
! big force at work, and before
Garrett could recuperate his ener-
,ies from the heavy strain the
New York project had put him
lnder, the Shenandoah Valley
Dad was in Roanoke. 1t had
'een race for an objective point,
md Scott had gotten on the
,round first. Such is the real
eason why the Baltimore and
ohio never got further on its way
o Salem than Lexington.
A Lexington man who is noted
or his correct information about
that is going to be done ir rail
Dad circles, predicts today that
'ithin decade the Wabash and
he Norfolk and Western both will
ave trains entering into Wash :
lgtOn over their own lines.

Don't You know that it pays

the Northern grown seed in our

The trap was sprung at 1854

BUSINESS COMPETITION

Honorable competition is pro
motive of business truism univer
sally accepted.
Responding to a public demand
for a minimum cost in advertis
ing, The GAZETTE will accept
class fed want advertising, includ
ing wants, for sale, lost, found ano
advertisements of a like character,
at the rate of ONE CENT a word fol
each insertion, cash in advance,
This change will include a notice
of the first insertion also being
put under the head of "New Adver-
tisements."
One cent word, at first glance,
seems to be great reduction in
the price of advertising, but a
little thought and comparison will
convince any one that such is not
the case. The GAZETTE has been
offering as cheap, possibly cheaper,
rates all along. Reference to the
top of the first column of our
editorial page will show the fol-
lowing standing notice: Business
local notices 10c. line for first
insertion and SC. line for each
subsequent insertion" Let's see
what that means. Suppose an
advertiser inserts five lines of
locals. The cost will be so cents
for the first insertion and 25 cents
for each subsequent insertion.
Four insertions will cost $1.25.
At the rate of one cent word the
same advertisement would cost,
counting six words to the line, 80 |
cents for each insertion, or $1.20
for the four insertions. Counting
the value of the notice under
"New Advertisements" the regu-
lar rates are cheaper. Of course
for one insertion only, the cost
is less by the word than by the
line.
A feature of The GAZETTE has
been the notice of "New Advertise
ments" at the head of the first
column on our local page. This
is inserted without cost to the
advertiser and calls special atten-
ton to new advertisements. This
privilege is not only extended to
advertisers for their first inser- 8
ion, but also to our regular patrons
when they change their advertise g
nents. Thus it will be readily
een that these notices are entire !;
y free to our advertisers, and are t
and successful in call O
ng attention to new advertise P
nents. This special feature of
HE GAZETTE is popular with our a
atrons, as evidenced by the many u
lords of commentator received. Il

THE NEW NATIONAL PARTY.-It ap.
pears the announcement last week
that Bryan, Hearst and Watson were
to bold a conference in New York this
week to consider the propriety of form.
ing o new national party, was I'M
authorized, but that a movement is on
foot for that object is shown by Chi.
cago dispatch of later date, in which
James d. Perish, National Commit
teeman OF the Peoples Party, urges a
meeting be held in that city this
month. to take steps for consolidation
of the progressive parties and factions
upon q broad Jeffersonian platform.
The chief tenets he proposes for con.
sideration are: Government control
OF the issue and volume OF money; pos.
tai savings banks; restoration of the
income tax; fullest protection to
those who labor; adoption of the
initiative and referendum; local op-
ton in the sale of intoxicating drinks !;
no imprisonment except by jury, and
no government by Injunction; taxa
ton and control Of all great corpora
tons in the interest OF the general
public"
