Splendid Electric FlNnt.
Waverly is electrically lighted, and
has a plant sufficient to supply power
to ull small machinery. The electric
plant / 8 private institution, conducted
by John L. Wilcox, and Is sufficient for
tho present needs Of the town. Indeed
tho streets. tho private residences,
stores and hotels arc as we'll lighted by
electricity as are similar establishments
In Richmond or In any OF tho larger
cities.
The telephone service Is superb for
so small town. Tho Southern Bell
Telephone Company has an exchange
improved telephone paraphernalia, and
the town is in long distance connect
ion with the outside world. The West
ern Union and Postal Telegraph Com
panles have offices here All OF the
trains Of tho Norfolk and Western
Railway stop at this station, and they
are ten per day. The Claremont branch
of the Southern Railway, is an impor-
tant factor in the industrial' interest
Of Waverly. It runs from Claremont,
on the James River, to Enporia, on the
Norfolk and Danville Division of the
Southern Railway, and penetrates the
lumber section giving Waverly access
to the woods as we'll as to tho outside
world by another route. Having two
railroads also gives the town competi-
tive freight rates to all points in the
world, which is q decided advantage to
Its manufacturing interests. The
Claremont branch Of the Southern Rail-
way taking freight SO quickly to the
james River practically gives Waverly
water route competition in the matter
Of freights
Other Attractions.
There are two splendid little hotels
in the town, two or more livery stables,
and in fact all of the convenences that
towns of much greater population and
more pretcntions boast Of. Altogether
Wnverly is one of tho 1.-Two Virginia
inland towns. and 1t presents an object
know of can we'll take time to stop and
learn. All of its people pull together,
and every man in the town, and every
woman too, so far as T have been able
to discover, believe that they 1.-Two in
the best town In the State, and that
there Is a great future before them,
that they are doing wonders as 1t is,
and that they are going to perform
greater wonders in the future, that
Waverly is a great town now, and Is to
be still greater town in the future,
ana they talk about 1t. and gas about
it, If you will, and every man, woman
and child in the town is u working,
living advertisement. Even SO big a
town as Richmond might learn some
thing from Waverly. It toots It's own
horn and it has something that they
need not be ashamed to toot about. I
like Waverly. 1t is a good town, and
the many handsome modern homes
houses that cost from $4,000 to $4,000
and beautiful lawns, it presents n
charming appearance. especially at this
charming time Of the year.

little business In this line being re-

Mny Advance Rents.

Inquiry as to tho report of a pro-
spective increase in rents at the begin
ming Of the new rental period, Septem-
Der LIST. elected the information that
some increase Is probable, but it is
denied that 1t will be generally as
much as 20 per cent. Ono dealer stated
that he had given notice OF an
increase of 10 per cent. in number
OF properties He further said that he
did not anticipate that the increase in,
rental would average more than 10 or
10 per cent.
The increase is attributable to the
augmented cost Of building materials,
the advance In the price Of labor and
of everything else. and finally to the
large demand for desirable rental pro-
perties. There is a remarkable scare
ity of residence property OF all kinds,
and what Is listed Is generally not
very desirable or is regarded BY pro-
spective tenants as extravaEant in
price. all things considered. For no
other property Is the demand so great
as for flats Of from four to seven or
eight, rooms, and there is almost none
OF this class OF rental property on the
market. Many old buildings OF two
and three stories are having wings
Dullt on In tho rear and being equipped
for occupancy as flats on the scvernl

are paid on such houses than on houses

ALL RAILROADS
PUBLIC HIGHWAYS

New York. Jan. Taking as his
subject Are Our Railroads Public
Highways or Private Roads Judge
william J. Gaynor addressed the For
um at New Rochelle last night.
Judge Gaynor took the position that
all railroads are public highways, con-
trolled In fact by the national govern
ment and by the people OF the states
through which they run. At consider
able length he discussed the legal as
pect of the case between the people and
the railroads. He said that while per-
sonally he objected to the government
ownership of the railroads, he was
convinced that as a last resort the
people of this country would compel the
government to own the railroads I'M
less by other means the abuses which,
In the opinion of Judge Gaynor, now
existing could be prevented.
AS remedy Judge Gaynor proposed
that the government appoint the gen
eral freight agent of each railroad
In conclusion Judge Gaynor spoke
of low rates being given to freight com
lUB from LoltlEI NDuiliEitS w p4AS'N tasN
protective tariff duties and enable such
goods to come here at all, and said;
what a humiliating sight 1t is TO see
these national highways being used to
beat the government Itself, under the
favor of which they exist. The govern
ment established a tariff on imports,
scaled not merely for revenue. but
for protection of American industries.
That has been the policy of our govern
ment for generations, And yet the per-
sons who rule the corporations which,
run our railroads, our public high
ways, do not hesitate TO give foreign
goods freight rate low enoupgh to
enable them to come in and be sold at
q profit in spite of the protective tariff,
thereby multiplying the object of the tar
iff Such goods have been carried at
one sixth of the rate on corresponding
domestic goods Goods are in that way
carried from England and Germany, to
Denver. for example, for less rate
than from Chicago to Denver. No Won
der growing number of people want
the government TO take the railroads"
