EXTENSION COST
NOT VERY LARGE
President Rea Tells of Outlay
to Make Certain Detroit
Branch
Philadelphia, Sept. 16. Setting at
rest many conjectures in financial cir
cles regarding the Pennsylvania Bail
road's outlay in extending the Unes to
Detroit, Samuel Rea, its president, in
a formal statement yesterday said that
by using portions of existing facilities
the cost of the project would be con
siderably under $10,000,000. Not only
will the ennsyb'nnia be able to handle
freight in and out o." the Michigan
center by the extension of its lines,
| but through a working agreement
with the Wabash and Pere Marquette
railroads it will be able to handle
passenger service, the present termin
als being used for that purpose. .

Arrangements for the start of the
second of the farming region tours of
the State by Governor Brumbaugh and
his party were completed to-day by W.

agriculture discussed by the State of
ficials who are making every effort
to make the tours serve the purpose
of carrying the work of the State
Government to the rural districts and
in bringing to their attention what the

LOCAL OPTION MAN
SEND CROW LETTER
Want to Know What Republi
cans Will Do; Democratic
Meeting Ignored
The Local Option Committee of
Pennsylvania, which is conducting a
lotal option campaign apart from
other organizations working for the
same end, has asked the Republican
State committee to incorporate a local
option plank in its platform at the
coming meeting. As far as known,
nothing was done to get the Democrats
on record at their recent meeting or
whether there will be a drive made
at the Republican League of Clubs.
Leaders of the committee yesterday
made public a copy of a letter which
they have addressed to Chairman
Crow, in which they advocate the in
corporation of a local option plank in
the Stale platform.
In their letter they among other
thingrs say:
• The undersigned, Republicans of
Pennsylvania, are earnestly in favor of
the enactment in the 1917 session of
the Legislature of a county local op
tion law. To this end it is respectfully
urged upon the members of the Re
publican State committee that they
incorporate a local option plank in the
party platform at the approaching
meeting of the committee.
"One of the most vital'questions that
will come before the voters of Pennsyl
vania at the November election Is local
CASTOR IA
For Infants and Children
in Use For Over 30 Years
Al-vy bears _
option. In order that the Republican
party may stand right on this issue and
be In the forefront of the fight for a
local option law in the next Legis
lature, we strongly recommend that a
local option plank be included in the
party platform.
"Everyone who believes in our form
of government should be willing to
favor legislation which will permit the
voters of each county to determine by
their votes at the polls whether or not
they desire licenses to be granted in
their county for the sale of Intoxicating
liquors. The passage of a local option
law merely gives to the citizens this
rtght.
"The ejes of thousands of voters in
this State ore now watching to see
what the Republican party will do on
the local option issue. There Is an in
creasing sentiment in every section of
the State for this proposition. It would
seem to be the part of wlsdifm for the
Republican party at this time to place
itself on record as being in favor of
the local option principle."
