POOR PROSPECT FOR RAILROAD.
A. NJ. Wright of Auburndalc. principal
owner in a tract of 10000 acres or more
of timbcrland in the southern part of
this state. was in Brnttlcboro last week.
He said he did not sec much prospect
that the Grand Trunk or Central Yer
mont people would build a branch line
from the West River road to the timber
area. The Rutland Railroad company is
ready and willing to build "A road from
the other side of the mountain range,
provided the timber owners will give them
the business Of transporting the timber
although the cost Of construction would
be much greater than to tap the area
from the east side. Mr.. Wright intmated
that an independent company might be
organized to go from the east side, al
though nothing definite in that regard has
been considered.
