Why Could Not Ocean City
Be Made Great Resort?

1t is estimated that the sea-
coast of New Jersey brings into
the State more money than all
of its enormous manufacturing
industries and more than the
farms. All the way from Sandy
Hook to Cape May the coast is
a succession of sand dunes and
bare sandy shingle, here and
there divided from the main
land by expanses of marsh.
These marshes have given to
New Jersey unrivaled eminence
in the production of mosquitoes.
and yet that forbidding region
has been converted into a sum-
mer resort which attracts visi-
tors from every quarter of the
land and brings a vast wealth
to the State. The New Jersey
coast has the advantage of
proximity to the great centres
of population, but that advan-
tage would not have profited if
the railroad companies had not
provided speedy and comforta-
BILE transportation.
Maryland has a seacoast of
less extent than that of New
Jersey, but with far greater
natural attractions. tits equal
" cool in summer and warmer
in winter. Instead of the mos
quito breeding marshes that
flank the Jersey coast the Mary
land coast has behind the sandy
beach a beautiful bay, temper
ing the climate and affording a
place for amusement in placid
and landlocked waters.
The great disadvantage under
which the Maryland seacoast
has labored has been the lack
of convenient access. A part of
the trip to Ocean City is on a
steamer, and that part is a great
attraction. But the remainder
of the way is over a road which
presents few inducements to
travel-indeed, every induce.
ment not to travel 1t is almost
inconceivable that a railroad
that has so splendid an attrac
ton on its line as Ocean City
should manifest so little interest
in it's upbuilding. If the road
from Claiborne were changed
into a trolley road, with we'll
ventilated cars in summer, it
would make that part of the
trip as attractive as that by the
steamer. Or if the rail route
were shortened by making Cam
bridge the starting point and
building a cutoff to Vienna,
there is no reason why Ocean
City should not become a large
and prosperous seaside resort. =
