Mr. Briggs brings to our people thq news that the little hamlet of New Corydon has agreed to do its part toward securing the road by promising the sum of $25,000 as its contribution to the road, which will mean great things to the part of Indiana and that part of Mercer county that has never had railroad facilities. For a time there was a sentiment existent to merge the road in operation between Bluffton and Geneva into a big Indiana traction merger. But the Bluffton and Geneva Xen who have built and maintained the road so far, believe it to be too good and | too reliable an enterprise to dispose I of it Why not let the people of » Bluffton, Geneva, Celina and the Ini’ tervening country keep the road wlthJ 1 in their own hands’ There can be no question as to the road becoming a j paying proposition if completed 1 ■ through to Celina.—Celina Standard. o FOR RENT.
