by an enthusiastic crowd of citizens who
had gathered for the purpose of raising
the amount necessary to secure ths right
of way between this city and Jltllsboro
for the OreKon Electric company,
E. W. Haines, who presided, stated
that It would be necessary to raise
16,000 for the purpose of buying the
right of way and terminal grounds.
Two routes had been surveyed into the
city by the company, the first keeping a
straight track, enters the city in the
northern part; the second, making a half
turn half a mile from tne city, takes a
diagonal course through the Stokes farm
adjoining the town, tnrough the south,
east corner of the college - campus,
through seversl residence lots and thus
Into the central part of the city.
A letter- was received from the com-
Fany yesterday expressing preference
or the latter route, which Is slso fav
ored by the cltisens. ss It will bring the
terminal grounds near the business part
of town. ...-..- . .. .,.-.-
After stating the purpose Of the meet
ing, Mr. Haines called Key. C. F. Clapp
