8. G. o. WILL BUILD.

A special train carrying b. x O. Of
ficials passed Pikeville last Monday
and on its way up the valley maps Of
a proposed railway line from Hemlett
w. Va, to Shelby Junction were filed
in the Clerks Offices of all the counties
along the river through which the new
projection is TO pass. A considerable
portion Of the right of way has already
been acquired by the company, md
purchasing agents are now In the field
to secure the remainder. Parties OF en-
gineers are also at work at various
places along the route, and it appears
that active preparations are being made
to begin the general work OF constrnc-
ton
The new route, according to the map
filed at the Pikevile courthouse, Will
take the eastern bank OF. the Sandy
river from Hewlett. near Kenova, TO
Shelbiana, and from that place the
& o. now owns line In operation
which extends into the jenkins Held.
For a long while the company consid-
cred the plan of passing up Beaver
creek in Floyd co. to Jenkins, tapping
the rich coal properties Of the Elkhorn
Mining Co. on its way up the creek;
but this project was not considered
feasible at present. though the Beaver
creek branch may later be constructed.
That active preparations are being
made for the immediate construction
OF the road to Shelby may be inferred
from the activities of the chief officials
in this direction taken in connection
with the visit Of John d. Rockefeller
to the Sandy Valley last summer. Rock
efeller and others interested in the y.
& o. and Consolidation Coal Co, are
ready to finance the plan to get Sandy
Valley and Jenkins coal to market over
their own railway as early as possible.
With the coming of the new railway
up the Sandy river there is not re-
mote possibility of the birth OF new
city covering the Cecil farm two miles
west of Pikeville which is a point mid
way between the two terminals OF the
roitd perfectly suited to the establish
ment of repair shops, etc. and Pike
vile and the new town may be united
into one industrial city.
