which maketh the heart sick in waiting for the
Baltimore and Frederick Electric Railway to
lay its tracks. the people of the I'd district are
putting forth determined effort to build a
road Of their own and if enthusiasm counts for
anything visions of an electric line connecting
the upper end of this district with Maryland's
metropolis will prove no mirage. The first step
in the right direction was taken when q mass
meeting was held, February 9th, in Clagett's
Hall, Randallstown, and committees appointed
to wait on United Railways and Electric Com
pany, procure charter ETC. second meeting
was held at Hehbville, March 18th. This was
well attended by residents from all parts of the

various committees made very favorable reports
and the meeting was addressed by Dr. james

The United Railways and Electric Company
has given encouragement to the incorporators
and State Senator Biddison has introduced
bill in the General Assembly asking for char
ter for the company, allowing it to issue cap
ital stock to the amount of $50 600, with the
privilege of increasing it to $500, 600. The
incorporators are Messrs. B. John Slack. VIM.
e. George. George E. Lynch, Harry NJ. Benzin-
ger. Isaac Price and DR.. James Bosley.
The proposed route will be from Woodlawn-
where it connects with the United Railways
to point on the Liberty pike one mile below
Stumpy lane, thence along that thoroughfare
to Randallstown
If brought to successful issue this project
will tend to the development of one of the farest
parts of Baltimore county and one that, despite
the poor facilities for communication with the
city, has made much progress in the past few
years The longevity of the residents attest the
salubrity of the air, the crops raised throughout
the entire district witness the fertility of the
soil, and fifteen churches, supported by six
denominations, give evidence that the residents
appreciate aud are grateful for the blessings
accorded them. M.
