On the ißth day of March, 1 SOT, an act was approved by the Gov ernor of the Commonwealth ap pointing Levi HolHngsworth, Win. rurnbull, Anthony Morris, Hen 'nmiu K. Morgan, Samuel M. Fox ami Samuel Mifflin of Philadelphia City ; Nathan Beach, Abel Fellows of Luzerne county, and John Flank lin, Stephen Tattle and Reuben Hale of Lyooming oonnty, commis sioners to open books and receive subscriptions for the Susquehanna and Tioga Turnpike road. The route described is as follows : "By the best and nearest route from Ber wick 011 the east branch of the Sus quehanna or from the mouth of the Lower Wliopehawley to the point in the north line o<" the state, which is nearest to Newton 011 the liver Tioga in the state of New York." Books were to be opened for re eeiving subscriptions in the City ot Philadelphia, Sunbury, Northum beriand and Berwick. Said siibscip tions being tor shares of if 100 each on which a payment of $lO per share was to bo made. As to the organization of the Company we have not been able to obtain an} 7 definate knowledge, bul it is believed the Company was within a very short time after incor pointed. By a survey made for a road leading from said turnpike near the Loyal Sock Creek to connect with the Muncy road at a point uear Lewis' lake, the road is described by veiwers under date of September Bth, 1808. From the history of Bradford count} 1 we learn that Daniel Havelry took up a tract of land 011 the route of this road in 1810 the writer assisted by C. C. Finch chained this road from the Loyal- Sock creek to Greenwood in 1847. Ttiere was no dilliculty in determin ing the route excepting for about one mile through a swamp and fallen timber about a half mile south of the Valentine Pohni's place. The road run from near Monroe ton through Sinitiifield and Ridge bury to VVellsburg thence to Elmira. The road for part of the distance in Sullivan county is shown 011 the county map and designated as the old pike. The Doyle, Gainer, Bartli, and Bender places are along this road. Soon after the completion of the first rttoid the company were induced to change the route over the North Mountain crossing the Loyal Sock about three miles higher up the stream and followed down the south branch of the Towanda creek to Monroeton. The new route was adopted at the instance of citizens of Bradford county, who offered extra inducements to obtain the change ot location. The survey from Monroe ton to the point ot intersection with the first made road is believed to have been made tvs early nB 1814 as the cutting out of timber for opening of the road was done in 1815. Andrew Shiner, who appears to have been the cotraetor to build the road was a resident of Brier Creek, Columbia county. The roiul as now traveled through Sullivan county was built in 1817, 1818 and 181 V». Mr. Shiner having completed to the county line continued to build over 40 miles through Bradford county at the rate of ♦!, 150 per mile with ex tra pay for bridges and to take half his pay in land at per acre. The contractors sub-let part of the job to parties as it would suit their oonvenience to build. The Slate made a grant of $575 1 in laud at ♦'.! per acre per mile of j road to the company. The road wan built through Albany towunhip in 18It) and l&lio. The date of, completion of the road is not known but prior to 1824 a weekly mail route was established from lierwiek to Kluiira, mail conveyed in a two- Horse post coach, Joshua DotUoti contractor. The writer would he glad to ob tain more iiiforiuaiiua relative to this road. The early settlement of the county greatly depended upon it, and the ellorts made by Mr. Shiner iu inducing (turtles to take Up laud who Mere employed on the road- Ww Msu.aat. Aug.

Lull. Mr. Lull at present re sides nt Bernice, where he has been for a few yeais. He is a gentleman «>t pleasant manner and address ami is well known to the people of Sulli van county as ho was a candidate for this office ho is now seeking in 1888, when he was defeated by lion. Wm Waddell of Onshore. Mr. Lull came to Bernice from Towanda and to Towanda from I'unkhannock. He is about 45 year* of age and hrs always (or at least for many years) been in the employ of the L. V. It. It as passenger con ductor. We regret for several reasons thai Mr. Lull is a candidate for tho olllce of Representative. Partly for his own sake, as he would spoil an ex cellent conductor to make an un satisfactory legislator and partly be cause his nomination will cause a stuggle again between the people and the great corporation he repre sents—in these stuggies the people work to a disadvantage—they have no monoj', no concentrated orgnniza tion and are lacking in the personal interest which animates their op ponents. In 1888 the corporations were defeated, but by a very nanow majority and as this year is the Pi esidential year the friends of Mr. Lull confidently expect to elect him. Indeed, ho would not have been thought of as a candidate in any other year. The people of Sullivan county do not want their law maker to sympathize with corporate inter ests, they do not want to send any one to make -t slake at Ilarrisburg. The Democrats of Sullivan are just »s much iu earnest about this as the Republicans, but the party managers [who do not always represent the parly) think that this is u Prtsiden tial year and tho Democratic voters L-an be w hipped into line to support iny one for this important office.

Cut this out anc past it in your hat and see if tlx REPUBLICAN is a prophet. The Review seems to have di grossed Ironi its neutral position ii polities this fall.
