Adamstown.
THE ROADS.-The Government road
from Union-street to the railway plat
form is drawing towards completion,
and should fine weather favour us for
for a few days, we will be able to
celebrate its opening. Well, the road
is about completed, but that is not all
that is required. A siding is necessary
at the platform, so that trucks con
taining goods for Adamstown can be
shunted where carts can be taken
conveniently to receive the goods.
The authorities have been written to
on the matter, and their only objection
is that the line don't pay. It is an
absurdity that a place with such a
large and rising population as Adams
town should be treated in such a way.
It is high time that a meeting of the
residents was called to take some
further action in the matter.
Teas and public meetings are all
the go here at present. This evening
the members of the local L.O.L. No.
28 will hold a tea and public meeting,
and on Monday evening the Baptist
Church will follow suit in the Carring
ton Hall.
