THE WAYNE TROLLEY.
Contract Let to Reading Firm-Work
to be Started at Once.

Contract Let to Reading Firm-Work
to be Started at Once.
A meeting of the capitalists behind
the construction of the proposed troll
ley line between Seelyville and Haw-
ley was held Saturday afternoon at
the Allen House in this place, and
the question of awarding the con-
tract for the building of the road
and the equipment necessary for it's
operation was turned over to the
Bankers Corporation company of
Reading, Pa. Work on the road will
be started within the next few weeks,
the financial company having already
made it's arrangements.
The building of this line, which
will pass through Honesdale, White
Mills and dozen smaller towns, has
been agitated for a number of years
and actual work was begun about
two years ago, several miles of track
being laid in the vicinity of Homes
dale. The money stringency of 1907
caused a cessation of the work and
the practical abandonment of the pro-
ject for the time being. For the past
few months the men interested in the
scheme have been busy in reviving
the road and Saturdays meeting saw
the fruitful elimination of their
work.
The proposed trolley line will be
twelve miles in length and will open
to both freight and passenger traffic
territory which has never been ac-
cessible to any of the railroad lines.
1t is the intention of the promoters
to finally extend the line to Lake
Ariel, thus giving a closer connec-
tion than now exists between Homes
dale and Scranton.
At Saturdays meeting, E. B.
| Hardenbergh, of Honesdale, former
auditor general of the state of Penn
| Sylvania, was elected president of
the company, which is incorporated
under the name of the Wayne Coun-
ty Traction company. The other
officers elected are as follows: w. c.
Ritfert of Reading, vice president;
Lewis Crater of Reading, secretary
and treasurer, and H. H. Richards
of Honesdale, general manager.
Among the stockholders at the meet
ing were: NJ. B. Allen, postmaster of
Honesdale; Attorney Henry w. Dun
ming of Wilkes-Barre; NJ. A. Kelly of
| West Pittston, and H. Wertz of New
port, Pa.
The contract for the building of
the road calls for high-grade stone
ballasted track, steel and concrete
bridges and large standard cars
equipped with the latest improve
ments and conveniences. Most of the
line will be built on the company's S
own right of way.
More than $4,000 people live in
the territory through which the road
will pass.

Distinguished Visitor.

Senator William C. Sproul was a
visitor at Farview, during the cor
ner-stone laying on Saturday last.
He there met Ex-Auditor General
Hardenbergh, and Messrs. A. T.
Searle and John d. Weston of this
place. He was induced by those
gentlemen to take an automobile
ride to Honesdale, and upon view
expressed himself highly delighted
by the thriving and handsome ap-
pearance of the place. 1t is stated
that Hon. Sproul will be a very
prominent candidate for nomination
for Governor, at the next Republi-
can State convention.

He Liked the Job.

before Burgess John Kuhbach, sew

vagrancy, and sentenced to work
at the Honesdale-Texas Almshouse,
finished serving his sentence on
Friday of last week. Wigs was so
delighted with his home and treat
ment that he asked Mr.. Bunnell,
superintendent of the poor-farm,
if he could not secure employment
about the place. The superintend-
ent employed him.

Not GOOD POlitics.N

The Reporter-Journal of Towanda,
Pa, means well, and it is a hustling
newspaper, but that grist of rattle
snake horrors that are located in
that vicinity, isn't good business
Outsiders will either believe that
corn juice in that county is remark
ably poor or that it is dangerous to
step out-of-doors for fear of being
destroyed by venomous serpents OF
enormous size. This is merely a
suggestion, of course.

If It is a fact that the majority
of taxpayers of Smith Valley, now
part of Lyon county. desire that
they eoome a portion of Douglas
county, the Legislature, by all
means, should give their wants
careful consi ieration. 1t is they
who should be considered and not
the desire of Lyon county to keep
that section or Douglas county to
acquire it. We would be overly
pleased to see that prosperous little
Valley annexed to Douglas, where
it rightfully belongs, but we would
not approve of such move against
the desires of the residents of

Writ Denied
Thomas B.
Rckey.

T. b.. Hickey, president Of tho
defunct State Bank Il Trust COM
pany, was refused q writ of habeas
corpus by the State Supreme Court
last Monday in an opinion handed
down by Chief Justice Norcross, in
which Justices Talbot concurred.
The order of the court puts Hickey
in the custody of the sheriff OF
Esmeralda county after the sheriff
of Ormsby releases him. Mr.. Rick
ey will have to file new bonds, but
has be given until Monday to do
so.
From the tenor of the remarks
made by Rickey's attorneys it
wsuld seem that the intention il
to get the case to the United States
court as soon as possible.
The courts opinion dealt with
the constitutionalty of the law
only, which has never been tested.
The court upheld the law in every.
detail.
1t provides that every officer of
bank who receives deposits when
he knows the bank to be insolvent
shall be deemed guilty of felony.
The statute pro vides jail term
for the violator. Rickey's counsel
contended that the law dealt with
bankers and their employees only,
and was therefore class Legislation
and in violation OF the constitution
of the United States.
The opinion ably disposed of this
matter by showing that all bust
ness, banking was one of the most
important to the general welfare
and therefore in most need of
regulation lest by the acts of bank
officials failures occur and the
public confidence be impaired and
panic result. The banker is en-
trusted with money because he is
a banker and therefore esteemed to
have money or convertible proper
ty to secure depositors.

Jury at their first meeting held

that Commissioner have sign
boards placed at all forks and

That at the completion OF the work

they will be prosecuted to the full
extent OF the law.

Commissioners caused sign boards
to he placed throughout the county
The work was greatly appreciated
by the public and especially
those unaequainted with the roads.
1t was not long, however, before
mischievious boys, and in some
instances grown men, found a
special delight in puncturing the
signs with shot and finally com
pletly destroying a number of the
boards.
The attention of the grand jury
has been called to this wilful des-
truction of county property and
that honorable body is determined
that punishment must he melted

CHILD
BADLY BURNED

The little child of Mr.. and Mrs.

ley was painfully burned last
Monday while standing near a
stove. A moment before the ac-
cident occurred the mother left the
room and the child was near the
front of the stove. The child's
screams were heard and the mother
rushed TO the rosm, finding the
child's clothes afre. She extingu-
ished them as quickly as possible,
but not before the little one was
severly burned about the hands
and face. 1t is thought that a
spark from the stove ignited the
child's dress.

THIRTY nine
CARS OF STOCK
SHIPPED RECENTLY

Carson Valley is continuously
smashing her former records in a
hundred ways as steadily as
Father Time clicks off the seasons
that have passed. Some farm sells
for stupendous sum, arancher re-
ports the yield per acre in grain or
alfalfa that seem marvellous and
almost increditab BILE. A span of
horses sells for sum that would
purchase medium priced auto
mobile or some dairy brings in a
monthly sum that makes the
owner a Morgan.
In mining camps the newspaper
give the widest publicity to events
of far less Importance, but it,pays.
Every shipment of ore is recorded
under large black type. That IL
why we intend to give every ship
ment OF stock or produce made
from from this Valley that is
brought to our attention promi-
nent mention in these columns in
order that the outside will learn oil
the many advantages possessed by
the farmers of Carson Valley.
During the past week there has
been no less than 80 carloads of
beef cattle, mutton sheep and
hogs shipped from this Val
ley to the San Francisco and Oak
land market. 1t was but a few
weeks ago that 32 carloads were
sent out aside from a dozen small
er shipments.
