RAILS ARRIVE AFTER
FIVE YEARS DELAY.
Glory be! Ralls for the new O. W.
P. tracks on Main street are being
unloaded, Tuesday. The rails are
standard, city 6treet rails weighing
86 pounds to the yard or 16 pounds
heavier than required by ordinance.
Men In charge say they understand
work of laying them will begin In a
day or two.
The O. W. P. franchise ordinance
granted in November 1902 required
new tracks to be laid on Main street
within five years. The five years ex
pire In November next. The council
recently amended the ordinance to
permit rails 6 1-2 inches Instead of
7 Inches deep be laid, as the com
pany had the 6 12 inch Iron on hand,
and the weight was above the 70
pounds required. j
Franklin T. Griffith, local attorney
for the company, says the new track
will be laid In the center of the street.
The company has permission to lay
the old tracks on top of the paving
for temporary use during the laying
of the new tracks, but only two blocks
in length can be torn up at one time.
