Practical Assurance Given That
Lehigh Will Build New Bridge
at That Place, but it Will be
of. Little Benefit to Residents
of the Town
For several years the Business
Men's association of Towanda has’
been endeavoring to induce the
officials of the Lehigh Valley to
change the course of the road at|
that place and erect a passenger
station at a point which would be
convenient to the residents as well
as to the people who are compelled
to go in and out of town. Every!
one in this section is familiar with |
the present location of the Lehigh
station at Towanda, and therefore
it is unnecessary to go into details, |
A committee appointed by the
Towanda Business Men's associa- |
tion has held several interviews |
with the Lehigh officials. The
latter were requested to erect a!
station at the foot of either Park
street or Mix avenue. Either of!
these points was considered to be |
a central location, but there was |
more than simply building the sta.
tion involved in the request. It
would have been necessary also for
the company to run the main
tracks down the west side of the
Susquehanna river for a distance of |
nearly a mile, and then cross the
stream. Doing this would mean
the abandonment of the old bridge
and the erection of a new one. It
would also mean raising the grade
at least 17 feet to meet the grade
on the east side of the river. The
project involved the expenditure
of at least $250,000, to say nothing
of the purchase of the necessary
land on which to build the road
over the proposed route.. Proper-
ty owners asked high prices and
the company hesitated. The mat.
ter has thus been pending for some
years and the committee has been
unable to get a direct reply. At
times it has looked as if the com-
pany might be induced to grant
the proposed change, but recent
developments appear to have shat-
tered every hope and it now seems
as if this wish of the residents of |
Towanda will never be realized. |
at a point nearly a half mile north
of the upper Towanda depot. So
far the chances are said to be in
favor of East Towanda. The loca:
tion of the station at the latter
place would be a slight crumb of
satisfaction to many of the resi-
dents of Towanda, as in some res-
pects it would be Tuch more con-
at the upper end of the town.
It is said that the decision of the
Lehigh is based on the fact that the
property owners asked prohibitive
prices for land over which the
requested route would of necessity
pass. It is also said that the
Lehigh has never looked upon the
county seat as a paying proposition
and that there were no prospects
of receiving enough out of the
town to warrant the expenditure of
the moncy necessary to grant the
request made by the Towanda
business men

FIRE BOARD MEETING
There will be a meeting of the
fire board on Friday evening and
the secretaries of the various fire
companies are requested to hand
in their yearly reports. This is a
most important matter especially
so far asit concerns the standing
of the members of the fire depart-
ment. Only those who are in good
standing can vote at the depart-
ment election and if a company is
not reported by the secretary the
members of such company will not
be entitled to vote.

A mecting of the Firemen's

members of the fire board had
been requested to meet with the
association but as the former failed
to show up matters of joint interest
were not disposed of.
During the meeting, however, it
developed that the secretaries of
the various fire companies have
not as yet reported to the fire
board the standing of the members
This is an important matter and
