The Opportune
Time

Now is most opportune time
for making n pull for new bust
nesses for Harlan. Just now
there is being exhibited more
interest by the local people than
at any time heretofore within
our knowledge. The question
is: How to direct this energy
and force in the direction that
will be most effective for good.
1t is the Concentrated rays of
the sun that gives the heat; it
is the many strands that give
the great cables their strength;
and so it lis the pulling together
that gives weight to the efforts
of people i'll Il common cause.
Omitted we stand, divided we
fall is a mighty apt saying.
If the people of Harlan want
Il new railroad TO compete with
the present one in the carrying
of traffic and in the proper de.
velopment of our vast resour-
ccs, they must pull together,
and not only must they pull to-
gethor in this movement but
they must secure the co-opern-
ton of other towns that would
also be benefited by having II

Flood in Ohio.

Roanoke, May 24.-lt requir-
ed 1900 men and four weeks
work TO make the temporary
repairs to put the Norfolk &

condition subsequent to the
Ohio floods.
President l.. h. johnson. w no
has just made complete analy-
sis of flood damage, authorizes
the statement that to complete
permanent repairs 800 addition
al men will be required for four
months and 200 men for the
next eight months. Estimates
call for final completion OF
flood repair work by March
1914.
The total estimated damage
TO roadbed, bridges, telegraph
lines and lost buildings and ma {.
terials amounted TO 1926, 800,
making II total cost To the road
OF over n million dollars. 4
further expenditure of about
800, 900 will be necessary to
prevent similar loss under
like conditions.
The cost of repairing 0 miles
of double track between Ports
mouth and Columbus and one
mile single track in the Cmcin-
natl district cost 1882 900. To
repair the damage to bridges
nj Chillicothe, Reese and at

Damage to other property of

TO ENTER THE
RING WELL
TRAINED
(By United Press Leased Wire.)

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
San FRANCISCO, Feb. 20. -
Apprehension concerning the con-
dition of former Lightweight
Champion Ad Wolgast Is pretty
well worn off today as the result
of the showing the Dutchman Is
making in his training. The Ca
dtllac demon still lacks the pep"
that he showed in past training
spells but he is rounding too nice
ly. and will not only be below
weight for the Murphy encounter
Saturday but will be in trim for
the Harlemite.
Murphy Is already at the neces-
sary 1873 pound notch and is ready
to step into the ring at mo-
ment's notice. He will probably
ease off in his training today
while Wolgast will work almost
up to ring time.
Betting was at 10 to s today
with Wolgast on the long end. 1t
is stated that 10 to will be the
ringside odds.
Seats for the mill are going
like doughnuts at a hobo barpe-
QUE and packed house will greet

evening, one between Paul Shock,

weighs about 200 pounds. Shock
will weigh about 1877. This bout
should be good one as both mer

chance at Joe Bonds, who knock

year.
Harry Bishop and "Foxey"
Miller will probably be matched.
Jack Howard and Battling Chris

be given the chance. Dick Forey,

out of baseball men at the Sta

the school fans predict a winning

The following old members
were out: Capt. Nick Dahl, Daley,

Coach Baird was greatly pleas
ed over the first day and hopes 10
whip a fast aggregation into the
field. The team lacks first sack
er and that is the only thing
that is worrying the boys at pres
ent. Hall will probably be shift
ed to third base and a new man
will be developed for the initial
sack.
