Vinton. Jan. 11.--At an enthusiastic
meeting Of the Booster Club, OF Vinton.

$4,000 was subscribed in about thirty
five minutes for the building of new
railroad to connect with the Milwau-
kee road fourteen miles south of here.
The attendance at the meeting was
over 900, and by reason of the fact that
the town has long been hampered with
only one RAILROAD system, the Rock Is
land, the citizens were eager to sign
their names to the stock list. 1t is
confidently expected that the road will
be built in the spring to either Van
Horne or Newhall, and be in o1eration
by fall.

nection with either the Milwaukee or

able that eventually the line Will be
extended on south to the Northwest
