The regular adjourned _ meeting of

Sayre Workmen Will Find the New
Train Scheme to Be Most Ad.
lageous.
*
The new train which the Lehigh
Valley contemplates placing in service
between Sayre and Towanda on Febry-
ary Ist has been the subject of con-
siderable comment among the resf-
dents of Sayre, and although the mat-
ter Is nol taken seriously here the
project is calling forth a storm of
protest, and some uncom plimentary
things are being sald of those who ars
responsible for it
According to the Towanda Dally
Review whith spears to speak au-
thoratively concerning the new train,
the Lehigh has consented to give the
cheme a trial. The object is to In-
duce workmen employed Iu the Sayre
shops 0 go to Towanda to live on
Account of cheap rent, cheap provis-
ions, cheap clothing, cheap fuel, and
cheapuess all around.
The principal Inducewent, it is yu-
derstood, is the price of-reut. [i is
clalined that the Sayre workmen will
be able to rent houses in Towanda
nt least one-half cheaper than they
can in Sayre It is sald that there
are a number of houses in Towanda
which will rent from $5 to $7 per
oath, and that they are worth every
cent of it There are also some
houses to be found In Sayre which
will rent for the same sum. They are
also worth it. . Bul when It comes
down to business the Sayre workmen
who will take advantage of this ex-
ceptional opportunity will find that
il they get a house In Towanda with
modern improvements they will pasas
much for it in Towanda as they will
in Sayre. Sayre workmen for the
most part are accustomed to lving
in houses which .are equipped with
a bath room, furaace, etc, aud other
cotveniences of the modern type. For
houses of this character the rent var-
les, according to the location, nutu-
ber of rooms. etc Many of these
houses are renting for $1500 per
month, and in a central location, $15 v0
month is demanded it eX
tremely doubtful if a house, equipped
the manner described, will reat
cheaper in Towanda Of course, If
ithe workmen want to live In shacks
in order to get cheap rent, Towanda
will afford them excellent opportun
ity.
Another feature "Wo the proposed
scheme which will of course appeal
fo all workinen who want to live at
the county seat is the t'me which will
be consumed In golpg to and from
work. In order to reach this place
10 go to work at seven o'clock it will
be necessary for the train to leave
that place at an early hour, and will
therefore mean that the workmen will
have to rise in the neighborhood of
4:30 o'clock in the morning In order
to take the train. If be lives some
distance from the station he may be
compelled to get up even earlier.
Of course he will eventually get used
to this. At night it will be at least
7:30 o'clock before he gels home, and
by the time he has performed his
ablutions, eaten his supper, attended
the chores about the house, let
out the cat and locked the doors, he
can go to bed and get a few hours
sleep. He can spend his Sunday re-
newing his acqualutances with his
family, and improving his mind by
reading Looks and magnzizes. In fact
an arrangement of this sort will Le
highly appreciated by the average man
and there Is no doubt that a large
number will take advantage of the
opportunity once they are made ful-
acquainted with the conditions
There Is still another commenda-
ble feature to the plan, which will
at once recommend itself to the man
in the overalls, Many of the houses
which are for rent to Sayre workmen
are situated on the hill side, and the
workmen will thus be given plenty
of leg exercise in going to and from
the trains. The conditions will be
$0 unlike those In Sayre that this
particular feature will be a decided
novelty and the workmen will not
be slow In taking sdvantage of it
In fact the scheme (5 a most de-
per is
