Wilton News

The first train of coal was sent
out by the Washburn Ignite coal
company, over the Pingree- Wilton
branch this week. The consign-
ment consisted of Is cars and was
billed to the various towns along
the branch. It is understood that
regular coal trains will be run two
or three times per week as long as
the weather permits. A large
force of men has been at work
along the line putting up snow
fences and should reach theWilton
terminal within week.
Before the week is over the Riv-
erview Telephone company will
have its line in operation. This
line connects Wilton with the river
district and it's existence is due to
the energy and enterprise of s.
Fairmen. who has been the prime
mover in establishing telephone
communication for the people west-
The fine weather of the past few
DAYS has made the work on the
line an easy task. When spring
opens the line will no doubt be ex-
tended so that the entire popula-
ton of the river districts will have
telephones.
