WAR At SAN HERNARDINO
All About a Right of Way
Wanted by the Southern
Pacific.
Citizens Anxious for the Trains, but
Property Owners Are Vigorous
in Opposition.

SAN BERNARDISO, CAL, Aug. I9.-
The Southern Pacific Company has filed
an application for franchise on South z
street. or Cotton avenue. leading south
from this city The petition was accom-
panied by an ordinance granting the fran
ehise- When the matter came up before
the Board Of Trustees II produced such
2 vigorous opposition from residents on
each side Of the street that the ordinance
did not pass It's first reading The first
section of the ordinance reads IS follows:
That there Is hereby granted 10 the Southern
Pacific Railroad Company and its assigns Tor
the period OF fifty years from and after the
passage Of this ordinance the right 20 COZ
struc1- mslutafl and opera te &siuele or double
track steam railroad. and 70 operate cars and
trains thereon S1d snereoTar by means OF
steam loeom0tiv for the purpose OF carrying
freight and passengers In the city OF san Bsr-
nsrdIUo4
Then follows the description OF the right
Of way from the junction OF Mil street
and Cotton avenue 10 the motor depot,
and IN addition the franchise gives the
company the right 10 build switches and
such other privileges SIS are necessary in
the operation Of the road Is was found
by investigation by residents interested
that in some places the grade OF the rail-
road would be more than five feet shove
the official level OF the street This fact
was one OF lAe main causes OF the active
opposition IN granting the franchise,
sbutting properry-owners claiming that
the grade OF the ralIrosd would greatly
in lure their possessions Several residents
interested addressed the board in vigorous
opposition to the proposed injury TO the
avenue and their property.
Trustees Ham and Ratabun are out in
pronounced terms against the passage of
the ordinance Il requires the assent
OF four mem 3ers 10 pass it, and it is very
doubtful whether the necessary votes can
be obtained. The fight promises to grow
into one of considerable proportions and
bitterness. Ali citizens are anxious that
the Southern Pacific should run regular
standard trains IN and out Of this ctr. but
