The Ma-ons have built a new side walk along tho Washington street side of their hall, but thin was not done before the fine maples that were growing at the outer edge of tho sidewalk were felled. It ueemj t ) the Independent that the brethren made a blunder when those trees were destroyed. jJThe miploj'f at Benson's foundry and machine shop were cheerfully fashioning thing of rut iron and Htecl last Saturday when a part of a blazing shingle dropped on a lathe. Where did that fire come from?" A glance ut I ha roof showed a square yard of fliine. A bucket of water and shop ho-e hastily applied dim tried the growing spark aud soon the lire was controlled. It was a close call. The factions hi Rpedville school district have settled their dill'erences and are again to work in harmony. The matter was referred to Hon. W. N. Barrett w ho succeeded in bring ing about this very desirable result. The way it was dono was for the op. posing parties to Ui?ree upon a candi date to be voted for by both at the annual election.

There is opposition to the road, nit as fir us ha U' -u eveloped it come- from properly owners along tho route. This io us on the o tsldi seems a selfish opposition, but it nevertheless is a hinderauee. It has been charged that the present litre t car companies and the S. P. Co. op pone the buildingof the new line, but after careful enquiry it does not ap pear that those interest are moving, either for or against. - The report of tho committee aud the ordinance came up for action by the council at its meeting on Wed nesday last and was adopted aud the ordinance passed. It was said a few days ago that Corbctt aud Ladd in terests would ci j )iu the company when it commences to build its road, but it I not believed that an action so unpopular will be undertaken, or if entered upon would Ut successful. It I understood that work will be commenced at once and the Sine completed next year, though the Portland franchise allows two years for construction. The line is lo be well constructed and well equipped. The coaches both for passengers aud for freight are elegant. The route out ol Portland is not !y the Cornell road, but between that road and the B irnes road. The car lino loops arouud the dividing ridge. A line I projected Irom Portland ea"tward to Gresliaio, which is claimed to be a good proposition, but we know thai the line into Washington county will tap a country twice as large and su perior everyway. It now looks as though tho Hue Is assured; the Wash ington people can materially aid the work by promptly and cheerfully granting the right of way through our territory. Agents will wait upon citizens immediately for the purpose of obtaining tiieir consent to the pas sage of the road along side their pro perty. ' j '. ' -: '. : 1HEII.
