THE MOTOR LINE
STILL NON EST
But Nest Sidcrs Have Hopes That 1t
Nill Yet Come

Another week has gone by! and no sign OF
the motor line that is to bring Astoria and
the West side closer together. Yes, there is
some sign.-About week ago the drive
wheels for the engine were returned nom the
shops at Corvallis, where they had BEEN sent
for repairs. They were len lying on the dock
IN Astoria for several days after their return,
finally being brought TO this side OF the bay
The two passenger coaches are still In the
store house OF the Bay Railway at smiths
Point When the new motor train will be
started Is question no one outside the rail'
road officials can answer, though there are
number over here who would like TO have
an idea ofthe time. The stockholders of the
new Hotel Flavel appreciate, no doubt the
excellent service the railroad company is
giving their part Of the West side. II will
probably come in time however.
