sTREET RAILWAY NEws.
Consolidated Company Likely to Meet
With Strenuous Opposition.

Wlth strenuous opposition.
1t was expected by some of the lead
ing promoters Of the electric railway
which is to convey Grafton people the
fourth of next July, that a petition
would be presented to the town at the
recent postponed meeting Of the select
men, but as such failed to be, the re-
quest for a franchise Is now looked for
at any time. 1t is argued by many
leading townsmen that the Consolidated
Company will make the Grafton street
extension as early as they can get at
the work, and as the extension will be
of comparatively little value to the
company with its terminus in 1.-The open
country" as they say, that preparations
will be made to have the whole line
from this town to Grafton square under
course Of construction at the same
time.
The laying OF an electric road over
the proposed route, via Millbury juno
ton and North Grafton depot, is likely
to meet with strong opposition from the
abutters along the line Of the Boston
and Albany road As a street railway,
unlike a steam road, has not the power
to build over private property without
the consent OF the owners, and have the
praisers later, the Consolidated WILL
without doubt, meet with a stubborn
obstacle when they come to the proper
ty of Harrington Bros, which lies in the
line of the route which it is believed
will be adopted.
The route via North Grafton depot
will make the street railway line of far
greater value to the citizens Of that
village, especially those who live in the

quent service to walking three-fourths
Of mile to he electric line, as they
would have to if the turnpike was fol-
lowed the entire route. The CONSOLE
dated Company also seems to take this
into consideration, and for that reason,
will work hard for that route.
A neat little idea has been originated
in this connection which will put the
line where wanted, and that is to ex-
tend Oak street, North Grafton, across
the land of opposing abutters, and thus
make a highway for the electric road
to follow.
CONFERENCE POSTPONED.
c. N. Neahr of Gloversville, N. Y,
