GIRLS LINE HAY PARKPLACE WANTS TO GET ON LINE OF ELECTRIC ROAD ' HAS MEETING PEOPLE HELP ON RICfWWAY Commit' I Appointed to Mak Term With Lsnd Owners and Talk With Company Over Change An eleventh hour change In the rich! of-way of thu proposed Oregon City Port and Hallway line may lie mail In the near future, which will Include the town of Purkplace. and In that event the roud will cross the Clack- minis river near the 8. P. tirldi!. rath er than at a point near th P. K.. U k P. Hue, which has been the plan. At a Ii I K meeting held in Crnnxc hall at Porkplncn Thursday nluht a -11(1111 'lit in fav.ir of the new roud ensuing through that little town was almost unanimous mid steps were tak en lo interest Mr. Stephen Carver, who Is building the Hue.

A franchise to run through t'.ic streets of (iladstonn Is being prepared at this time, and If the Parkplnce peo ple are atieceKsiul In persuading Car ver to run his line through their town, It will necessitate quite a change in the Cladstoiie franil. As the rluh'. of-way Is now mapped out the line will enter Uludstone at the extreme northern boundary a'ong Railroad. running thence along Railroad avenu and paralleling the 8. P. trucks to Ar lington street. The line then runs down Arlington street to Chicago avenue and thence down Chicago avenue to the Clack amas river, crossing the river at some point over the 'Island' recently deedel the city. If the Parkplnce people arc successful the line, will follow the county road at tha terminus of Rail road avenue and cross the river at son lower point, probably between the county bridge and tbo 8.

Almost the entire right-of-way be tween Mllwaukle and the Clackamas river bss been secured, and work of construction Is actually under way, over a half mile of the grade having been completed In the vicinity of Webster Acres beyond Clackamas, through which Ihe line will run. The right-of-way deed and the options therefore call for an actual completion of the line and the 'operation of the cars within eighteen months, so work la being rushed with all possible haste. Benefits Country.

It I said the builders or the line will put in a first-class road In every par tlc.tilar, and the presumption la tha; It will be an electric route, as the rlght-of way deeda except steam opera tion. The Gladstone council will take up the proposed franchise at an early date. Tha Parkplace meeting was pre sided over by Mr. E. I.. Pope as chair man, and Professor Jolly as secretary. Overy sixty persons attended the meeting and all were enthusiastic aud anxious to bring pressure to bear up on the backer of the new line. AUTO HITS INDIAN; ALSO KIUS HER DOG C. N.
