WHAT THE PAPERS SAY.
Cross Country Railroad.

While railroad companies in the far
west are racing for empires in that
undeveloped country, Vermont has
been practically standing still in re
gard to putting in new lines that will
open traffic to better advantage than
it is conducted now. Somebody. how
ever, is waking up and advocating a
line from North Troy to Waterbury.
North Troy is within a stones throw
of the Canadian Pacific road. If a
line is constructed from there to Wa
Gerbury it might not pay IN handsome
dividends for the first year, but as
human beings continue to inhabit the
state, in all probability the amount of
business or the road would increase
and a way be opened for the reaiiza-
&iOn of opportunities which do not
exist today.
A road from Rutland to Woodstock
would be a great benefit to Windsor
and Rutland counties too.
Here's hoping that a way will be
found yet to reclaim the "back
&owns" and put them into communi-
cation with those more favored

fact that fish may be obtained from

both state and the federal govern
