A PLAIN STATEMENT

EDITOR THE TRANSCRIPT: The SEN
timent herein expressed to-wit: "Where
Ignorance is bliss It's folly to be wise"
was forcibly demonstrated in our town
election last Saturday. 'They have
killed the goose that laid the golden
egg. There is not a bigger hearted
more public spirited man in Townsend
or any other town for that matter than
the Hon. ". A. Scott. When anyone
is in sore distress, when anyone wants
favor, when anyone wants advice,
When any of our young people leave
home to career their fortune in some
distant field and desire a letter of re-
commentator, all of these classes in
stinctively turn to Mr.. Scott, and they
always get what they desire. One young
woman who sought a position in the
city remarked to the writer. Mr.. Scott
gave me such a nice letter that almost
hesitated to use it, and lam sure that
letter was the thing that brought sue
cess to me. After long aud faithful
service Mr.. Scott retires from the
town board. He has done his work well
and faithfully, and deserves a vote of
thanks from the towns people. 1t was
the Rif-Roff of our town that was up
against him. These Rif-Roff politicians
were campaigning for two weeks befor
the election explaining to the unwary
that Mr.. Scott desired to unload on
them fire protection and that would in
crease their taxes. AS matter of fact
these people do not seem to realize
that insurance rates are always high
in towns that are without fire protec
tion.

DCoMMUNucATEDE
SHOULD MAKE IMPROVEMENTS

Middletown Transcript, Gentlemen
Over three years ago the Pennsyl-
vania railroad through their very polite
Publicity Agent, Mr.. Aydon, promised
no end of transportation and other
betterments for this neglected, shame
fully mistreated town-and not an atom
of it all has been done
Let us refresh the railroads memory
about few highly important things:-
Middletown is the biggest traffic
point, freight and passenger combined,
on the Peninsula south of Wilmington.
Yet, how meager, how mean are the
business facilities and accommodations
bestowed A corner in an aged store
house serves for a freight Office, to
reach which any business man must
crowd himself in between two cars on
switch track at peril of being crushed
without warning by some flying
switch" started 100 yards up the road !!
A gentleman told the writer that one
day as he stepped from the entrance to
this freight "office" to cross this track
only foot or so away-a car was
shunted right in front of him, and had
he taken but one step more he would
nave been killed!
The railroad company have for years
in defiance of common decency and re-
gard for human life maintained, are
yet maintaining, this murderous man.
trap, just as for years they refused to
mend the quagmire crossing that pas
sengers waded through to reach the
station platform; just as they refused
to install proper number of lights at
the station, or to inclose and heat their
open shed that was fittingly styled the
Pneumonia waiting shed''; just as for
years they refused to keep a day watch
man at this busy crossing, or put gates
there, or to furnish night watchman-
until forced by law to do these things.
Then look at the shabby, ill-kept
station building that gives Middletown
"a black eye" to every stranger going
up or down this Peninsula!
Inside, its dingy, dirt-streaked walls
and ceilings look like the interior of
some old barn, not even a few cents
worth of calsomine will this appreciative
railroad bestow to brighten little the
dismal prospect The door of the ladies'
waiting room is a masterpiece of dreary
smear-perhaps, though, it is bit of
'imprsesionistic granting.
Outside, things if possible, are worse.
The dirty, faded paint, scaled off in
spots; the brick work mortarless in the
lower courses and covered with the ex-
uded lime from the bricks till it looks
as though some drunken whitewash ar
tist had played at his job and left dado
four feet high of white smear
Wisely the railroad has removed the
name "Middletown" from the front of
this shabby station. One day stranger
sticking his head out of the car asked a
small boy, "Sonny, what's the name of
this place, 'Waybackville' -?
don't know any so shabby, run
down-at-the-heel station between Cape
Charles and Wilmington as ours-and
yet it is just pouring money into this
greedy corporations Golfers. But the
citizens here have not spirit enough to
demand anything better, and so this
generous railroad gives them all they
ask-nothing
