There is a new song going the rounds
Of the press and itruns as follows: 1--WE
don't want to buy at your place, we

A SURE GO NOW.
The Proposed Electric Line to Amherst
Will be Built.

Will be Built.
The Lorain Times prints the following:
For three years line to connect this
town with Amherst has been talked of
and several have been engaged in pro-
noting the line. The project has been
carried on to such an extent that the
right Of way for two routes have been Sc
cured up to within three-quarters Of
mile OF the south corporation line of this
city. In addition to this the G. B. E. &
0. R'y. people have planned line to
connect these two towns. The other
lines have been backed by different
parties at times but now matters are in a
very much more substantial shape.
PARIS Foster, Of Elyria, and his broth
er, b. G. Foster, Of North Amherst, are
behind the deal and declare the line will
be pushed to completion. There re-
mains but one or two obstacles to defer
actual work upon the road. One of these
obstacles was the right-Of-way on Pen
field avenue outside Of the city limits for
distance Of three.quarters Of mile.
There were some property holders that
objected to the road.
B. E. Boise has been engaged by the
Foster gentlemen to secure the right-of-
way upon this street. Mr.. Boise said
this morning that he was meeting with
very encouraging success and thought
there would not be very much trouble in
getting a right-Of-way. He did not ex
pect any trouble in securing a franchise
from the city.
