Watauga's best farming sections, as wel) as some, of our niQst noted views, and expressed themselves as being most highly Dleased with our county. Of m course, tbeextension of their road from Tpdd or - River Side, in to Watauga", being in their minds, we take it that their visit here wafifou.the purposed .of "looking over the territory to ascertain as near as possible the amount of freight they.w'Ould control in $an the road is built, and to see what inducements, any, pur people would offer them. ; They met witn a number of our leading citizens and many propositions were dis cussed, but, of couree,nb definite conclusion could be arrived, as such'ah undertaking as building a railroad of ' standard guage through the ' mountains a dis- tance,o.f 20 mifes is ah.undertak ing that requires much study and close. emulation on the part of the) promoters. It seems that we have the;tonnage in timber and farm products to induce the ex tension 01 tne roan, and, m tact. we believe the officials are satis fied of this fact, still it is "up to them!' to get the best proposi tion out of our people possible, and we are frank to say they are entitled to encouragement, as we need them worse than they need usi . There is' a deal on between the V. C. people and a large lura- ber.company, whose namewewil not mention here, which, if made, will practically, settle the matter of extension to Boone, and wil be decided in Philadelphia today (Thursday). Our people are more, hopeful; than ever before that we are to have railroad fa cilities, and should the deal re ferred toabove be "pulled off," there'is no doubt of it, and tha at. an early date. Mr. Johnson says that in the event the trade is made, he will have their engin eers on the survey within the next ten days, and ne dopes to com plete the line from Todd to Boone by March 1, 1916. . . . The gentlemen have highly im pressed the people of this section they being men of business, brain and bustle, and we all hope to know them better ere long. They were welcome guests in our town and the oftener they visit us the better we will all be pleased.
