Bosh! We coulden't stop it if the company wanted to go on with the line; but the funniest part of it is that every cit-zen of Stockton has been hopeing and praying for over two years that the road would go on and make a western connection somewhere. Far from putting a straw in its way, our city will be ready to fire cannon and beat tho -bass drum when the dilatory policy of tho Central Branch is changed for one of activity, and the work commences on the extension. Many are fearing that it won't go on this year, and predict financial distress for Stockton if it doesn't move. No one denies that an extension would be of great advantage to the county seat; and yet there are a few silly people who think we want it to stop!
