As we announced in Fridays
paper. the contract to build the
trolley line from this city to
Friendly was given Saturday aft
ernoon by the company. The
contractors are the F. II. BlOdgett
brothers, who built a great deal
of the trolley roads in and around
Wheeling, and they will ship tools
and men in here this week and be-
gin work not later than next week.
This same company has promised
Us some time since that they will
also build an electric railroad
from this city. TO Middlebomne.
We have not said anything about
this branch Of the road. because
we have been disappointed so
many times we did not care to
take the matter up until the peo-
pie were assured the company
meant business by actually be-
ginning the construction Of road
down the river. As soon as the
road down to Friendly is under
actual construction we will tell
our readers how we can get road
to Middlebourne. We have never
had any doubt about a road being
built down the river. and with
very little effort we can have a
road built to Middlebourne.
The Wetzel-Tyler Railroad com
pany is a success. managed as bad
" as it is. The road is now pay
ing on an average so a day. leav-
ing a net profit to the road over
and above running expenses of
$50 day, and the traffic on this
road is improving daily. It's a
fine investment. and with Paden
City built up, attractions at the
park, lower prices on the road,
more cars running the traffic over
it will more than double up.
The road south will bring thou
sands of customers to our city
and if the people who can will
only begin to invest their money
at home We will have such a boom
here as we have never had before
The details of the letting of the
contract to construct the road is
given by the Parkersburg News as
