WITHIN SIXTY DAYS
Night Cars Will Then Be
Put On.
EAsTON HAS ORDERED THEn.
The President of the Electric Line
Takes Some Suggestions on
the Subject.

The Metropolitan Railway Company will
be the pioneer line to run al-night cars.
President Wendell Easton states that
within sixty days they will be put in
operation.
The directors of the company will meet
this week to close a contract with Carter
Bros. of Newark for large number of
double-end cars for use on that line. Carter
Bros. have agreed to have them ready for
use in sixty days.
Mr.. Easton states that in his opinion. if
the pr0perty-ow1ers ia the outlying dis
tricts would make reasonable offer to the
various cable companies, there would not
be the least doubt but that all the lines
would be willing to put on night cars.
'.Iu Denver" Mr.. Easton states, "the
property-owners offered q bonus to the
street railway companies to run night cars.
and it has proved profitable. SO far as / have
heard, TO all concerned.
1.-The property-owners would be greatly
benefited by the innovation, and in my
opinion they should be willing to sustain
the companies 10 what at first would be a
very improbable venture"
In turning to the subject OF real estate
Mr.. EastOn thought the recent dull times
had resulted in comforting one benefit on a
suffering community.
"It has driven out at least half OF the
real-estate dealers and firms that infested
the market not yeaf ago.
II could mention several large firms
here" he said. who have been compelled
10 retrench Some OF the partners have re-
tired and they have otherwise cut down ex-
penses.
claimed during the campaign, but / will say
that the entire State has very bright ut
look before il for 1898.
'Property-owners in this city are begin
ming to realize that they must change their
methods if they do not want to have empty
houses.
''They must accept a small sum down on
the purchase price and take the rest in
monthly installments.
let them do that and there will be very
few houses in this city at the end of next
year that will be decorated with a sign
TO let.
Now. the Pacific Savings end Loan
Society, In which am interested, and kin
dred organizations are always ready TO help
the home-buyer in his desires.
Il have gone so far as to induce property
holders to allow people who are going to
build to have the lots without paying a cent
down and the payments to be made in small
monthly sums.
There is one thing certain. and that is
country property Will come to the front
next year.
There is much inquiry for Il now. P co.
pie are beginning 10 realize that money n
vested in orchards and vineyards brings in
greater returns than when placed in any
thing else.
ut is a safe, sure and profitable invest
ment. anticipate an eager demand for
bearing orchards and vineyards.
when the supply gives out investors
will purchase land and set out their own
trees and vines. OF course there is always
demand for income paying city realty,
but then you know ii is not always TO be
had.
Southern California is again coming to
the fore. Tourists are flocking IN there by
the hundreds. They are looking out for
good investments aud purchasing consider
able property.
During and after the Chicago Fair I look
for large influx OF visitors. They will
come here many Of them TO invest and 10
seek homes, and you viii find that w hen
1898 expires ii will have many good marks TO
be placed to its credit"
