Forest Grove Makes Promises
to Oregon Electric.
WILL GIVE RIGHT OF WAY
Property-Owners Ready to Lend As
sistance for Extension of Line
From Hillsboro Company
Asks for Terminal, Too. y
FOREST GROVE, Or.. June 12.
(Special.) Dirt will be flying; on the
Oregon Electric Railway right of way
between Hillsboro and Fofest Grove
within 30 days, providing the citizens
of this city and along the proposed
route will furnisli the required 60-foot
strip of land between the two cities.
G. W. Talbot; general manager of
the Oregon Electric Company, with M.
S. Turner, general manager of Barstow
& Co., constructors; C. J. Miller, chief
engineer, and G. M. McDowell, right
of way agent, were in the city this
morning and made the proposition to
extend its line from Hillsboro at once.
The proposition was made to the rail
road committee from the local Board
of Trade at the Forest Grove National
Bank, and was accepted.
What the Company Asks.
Mr. Talbot outlined his requirements,
which are practically as follows: Forest
Grove and Cornelius to furnish the
right of way and terminal grounds in
this city within 30 days. The route
is almost a straight line from Hills
boro and will enter the city limits 1400
feet north of the Base Line and thence
south across a corner of the college
campus to a point near the council
chamber. The company require a fran
chise from the city and extending to
the western limits affording an outlet
for the general net work of lines an
nounced in The Oregonian some time
ago.
If the right of way can be had at
once the company will transfer its
crews to the Forest Grove section and
Mr. Talbot promises that cars will be
running by the time rain falls. He
stated that his company hoped to have
the section east of Hillsboro completed
in time to haul passengers to the State
Fair, and from the way work was pro
gressing the line would be finished in
time. Enough iron to make the ex
tension is on the ground at Hillsboro.
and before the construction crews are
transferred to other parts of the state
the company hopes to continue to For
est Grove.
The prospects here look particularly
bright for an early completion of the
line to this city, as several property
owners, through whose land the route
will pass, were present and promised
any assistance needed. Other property
holders were seen and without excep
tion they all promised support.
The committee held another meeting
tonight and formulated plans and ways
and means, and a delegation will be
put in the field at once to secure the
right of way.
SHOCKS FELT FOR MILES
each waa plainly felt for miles. In
Cornucopia, dishes rattled on the
shelves, foundations were shaken and
miners at work on night shifts came
from the mines and refused to return,
so plainly were the vibrations felt.
People living in that section arose from
slumber and waited for what might
follow. .
At Halfway, the statibn between
Baker City and Cornucopia, the shock
was noticed, and it is said the sky was
lighted up with a purple tint. People
of Richmond say the same was true
there.
MIneowners and others, to determine
whether a magazine containing explo
sives was blown up, located all of the
magazines of any size in the Cornu
copia country and found them all In
tact. Reports from Wallowa County late
today stated that the time shocks
were experienced there and today a
heavy smoke has been hanging over
the mountain range. At Irondyke
mine, near Homestead, on the Oregon
Idaho line, people claim to have felt
the same shock.
-- While there is more or less mystery
surrounding the matter, the shock is
attributed to an earthquake or soma
upheaval of the earth.
