IN tho past year the work OF r:ilroad
construction has been Vigorously prose

5000 miles Of completed railroad has
been added, making a total of fully

sum OF 00.OOO.O 900 will he put IN cir

good times to prevail in a land where
work is plentiful. wage are high. and
the cost of living is moderate.
But the building OF lew railroads

their present condition, doing all in his power for their improvement. He not only taught drawing free in the High school, obtaining such splendid results, but there were infinite details in connection with the school to which his time to him counted as nothing. He anticipated their needs and had pupils and teachers without their ask ing for them. One of his last thought ful acts was to get samples of school books for the principal of the High school to examine. For many little things he did, there will be no items found against the town in the treas urer's account for them. He was most transformations in his labors, striving to do good to better condi- tionS. His loss in the community will be keenly felt. His influence gression and steadfastness. He con- ceived the idea which it is to be hoped will be carried out in the High school matter of having ballot box placed in the postoffice on the Green, and an other at the Depot. In these boxes, people are desired to put in slips of paper stating where they preferred the location of the new High school. When the time allowed has expired, MT Kilborn desired that the High school committee of five of which he was the Chairman, should meet and examine these votes, thus discovering the most popular site for the school
