ICitizens of Woodstock, Virginia.

The town of Woodstock has entered
into an agreemet with the Valley
Turnpike Company. by which the
Turnpike Company is not only to
metal Main Street of the town at its
own expense, but to use an asphalt
binder on the same, costing hundreds
OF dollars to the said Company.
In consideration of this great i'm
provement the Council of Woodstock
has agreed to keep the bitches along
the street and sides of roadway on
the streets free OF all dirt or
fifth. This is done to prevent dirt
accommodating on the asphalt, which,
if prevented. will make the streets
dustless. There is fine for sweep
ing or placing dirt or filth in tie
bitches or on the streets and this is to
notify all parties and especially orners
of property on Main St., to observe the
ordinance of the town and thus save
fines and the street.
This notice is also given that you
may observe the agreement with the
Turnkike Company, which is of greet
value to all of our citizens.
Respectfully,
r. F. LOCKE, Mayor.

EAST 70 GET RATE INCREASE.
Commerce Board Said to Agree East
ern Lines Should Have Advance.

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE interstate
commerce commission, according to
authoritative information, has decided
to grant the application of the eastern
railroads for permission to increase
freight rates.
The decision Is being written. The
expectation is that it will be handed
down by next Tuesday. when the order
suspending the rates applied for by the
railroads expire.
The commission. it Is said. will allow
to an average of about per cent. the
increase asked for by the railroads In
their original application.
1t was estimated that II the COM
mission granted the application Of the
eastern railroads their freight revenues
would be increased about $4,000, 90 a
year
Those on the inside who have heard
of the intention of the commission to
concede that the railroads in official
classification territory-that IL, the
eastern raitroads-are entitled to the
privilege OF increasing their freight
rates are of the opinion that this
action of the commission will be real
step in the restoration of prosperity in
of such momentous importance as this
in the direction of stimulating business
and generally helping to prove that
underlying conditions are excellent.
On account of conditions due to the
war in Europe the carriers filed an APP
plication for rehearing, and this ap-
plicat'on was granted by the commits
sion Sept 10. the rehearing being lin
tied however, to presentation of facts
disclosed and occurrences originating
subsequent to the date on which the
records previously made in these cases
We're closed.
1t Is on the evidence presented in
this rehearing that the commission IL
understood 10 have decided that the
eastern railroads are entitled to an in
crease in rates amounting to 5 per
cent
