Electric Car Line.

Strawn. Texas, Nov. S.--The OPP
portunity now. and the most import
ant since the coming of the Texas
G. Pacific road, is the proposed cleo
trio car line which northern CAPT
talists propose to start at Strawn and
build 10 Thurber by way or Lyra
and Mingus. And We have an Idea
that it will not stop at Thurber but
that this IS to be really the beginning
of a line, that will in the very near
future. touch at Mineral Wells and
later be built into Fort Worth, there
tn connect with the Dallas interur-
is the possibility OF the
very near future and certainly 1t
would give Strawn such boost as
no other town in Texas has had from
such a source in many year, II ever.
Electric lines now honeycomb Sec
tTons of the North and East. They
have DIV begun to come south. There
are not half dozen interurban lines
in Texas The first one was an eight
mile line between Sherman and Dem
$50. Then the fort Worth and Dali
las line, thirty-two miles long was
built. Then the people at Bolton
and Temple began taxing OF a line
fifteen miles long connecting these
s. In each case lots OF peo-
pIe said, ooh, this won't pay" But
the lines eventually built and have
paid handsomely, There are few
who say the same thing about the
srawn-Thurber line-that 1t will
not pay. But it will be found to
nav more Handsomely than the 9th
ers mentioned. Let no one worry
about that. The thing for Strawn &c
do is to get in line. 1t will certainly
pay the town as we'll as other parts
of the country touched by the road

Surveyors COMPLETE Work.

Mineral Wells, Texas, Nov. s. i
The surveying corps from this end
of the extension Of the Mineral Wells
& Northwestern have completed their
work and withdrawn AT appoint
some $50 miles northwest of here
they formed a junction with the
corps surveying this way and now
after all cross sectioning and proofs
Of surveys they have permanently es-
tablisned the line and have gone in
TO figure out the actual work OF
grading the line. This done the
graders will take charge and the line
pushed to completion. AS has been
said before this line just at this time
Is engaging the attention OF the en-
tire Gould system as never before,
and the claim Is made that President
George Gould Is now in st. Louis
for the purpose of consummating
some important deals In the south
western lines of Che system and that
the Mineral Wells extension is the
most important Of all the deals con-
templated. The rumor that the San
ia Fe has taken over the Texas Cen
trail or is at least operating 1t, Is
said to have given our proposed ex-
tnslon new life. The Santa Fe ru-
| NOR has been made before, but it
is now a fact that the Central is
actually using the waybills and sta
tionery Of the Santa Fe from Waco
to Stamford in Jones county and
that the Central is also to be extend.
ed. Whatever the rumors, it Is now
considered as certain that dirt will
fly over the Mineral Wells road be-
fore the grass comes again.

Work Suspended.

dress arrived from San Angelo We'd
nesday, He says work on the Orient
between Sweotwater and San Ange-
10 Is practically suspended for want
of labor, nearly all tho hands hav-
ing qult railroading to pick cotton,
Of which crop there Is an enormous
quantity. Work win be resumed aft
er cotton picking is over but 1t will
not be possible TO finish the grade
according to contract. Mr. Childress
has put his teams on freight line
from Bronte to Ballinger, having
found this more profitable than rail-
reading. Mr.. Chlldress says tho talk
now is that the road win be extended
south from San Angelo and to hasten
the completion Of the main line the
track OF the Texas & Pacific will be
used from Swectwater to Monahans
and n line will be built to connect
with the main line by Alpine TO e!
ORC on the Rio Grande. The object
of this, if the report be true, is to
save time. The part Of the main line
between San Angelo and Fort Stock
ton will be built afterwards. 1t Will
be noted that Mr.. Childress does not
claim to have reliance that the ORR
ent has changed its plans, he simply
repeats the talk he heard in the con
struction camps and on the streets
