Business Men to Solicit Sub

Road.

The promoters of the Wash
ington, Frederick and GettyS-
burg Railway Company are look
ing forward to the commence
ment of active work on the line

the Surveying, with a few de
tails excepted, is completed, and
all that is necessary is the finish
ing up of the financing of the
plan.
A committee of members of the
Business Mems ASSOCIATE, n, con
Sisting of Messrs David Lowen-
stein, chairman; George S. RO
dock, G. Thomas Kemp A. r.
Yeakle and w. IL. Ramsburg has
undertaken to secure the needed
subscriptions to the stock, which
amounts to about $4,000. Part
of this has already been pledged
and it certainly ought to be easy
to get the money for this much
needed enterprise. Mr.. Kemp.
the President, has undertaken
te get in some stock that has been
taken in the county, and this will
bring the total amount of stock
subscribed up to $4,000. When
this is all paid in the company
will be ready to go ahead with
the building of the road.
Anent this road. a writer in
the Thurmont Clarion propounds
the following:

of Catoctin Furnace, does not
seem to be going to do anything
towards engaging in active work,
and it would not be anything to
gain in running a railroad by that
point under those circumstances
Then the object of the promoters
Of the road was 10 go as nearly
as possible to Creagerstown so as
to participate in their freight and
passenger traffic, coming up by
Eicholtz's Mill, and thence to the
east end of ThurmOnt, or coming
up by Fogle's place and then
striking ThurmOnt near the cen.

questions to be determined a

To Build Two Miles of Good
Road.

The Commissioners for Mont
gomery County have decided to
build two miles of Shoemaker
Road in the lower section of the
county, to cost approximately
S12. 900. 1t will extend from
Silver Springs to Tacoma Park
and Four Corners road. 1t was
the original intention to build but
enc mile of road there, but q
number of the citizens of that
locality obligated themselves to
pay the county's share OF the
cost of constructing an additional
mile, so the two miles will be
constructed. This is a much
travelled thoroughfare and means
much to the residents OF that
section of the county.
