Camden to Lancaster Rail Service Hinted for Next Month
Camden correspondent reports Thursday schedules for milepost lines, Hanging Rock cut to finish this week, with a regular Camden to Lancaster route likely by the 20th of next month. Major Johnson praised road plans and urged Sumter subscription, promising Camden to Sumter by July or August if begun. An offer from a $750,000 plant company to complete the line from Abhiland, Ky., through by January 1889 was under advisement, including night work and electric lights with guaranteed completion despite tunnels and other costly sections.

Democratic member cites tariff bill unlikely before March
In Wasnxierox Feb 1 a Democratic member of the House Ways and Means Committee said it was improbable the tariff bill would take definite shape before the 25th and that action and report to the House before March 1 are unlikely. The majority faces a snag in the front and steel schedule and cannot agree on enlarging the free list. Several times items were added to the free list and then removed. The committee chairman is the only one who reads the bill, and he cannot do so without wide support.
