SECURE R|GHT-OF-WAY.
THE NEXT step
PROPERTY OWNERS ALONG
SEASIDE ELECTRIC LINE TO
BE APPEALED TO SOON

Within a very short time effort,
will be commenced 10 secure the
rights OF way, and the necessary fran.
chises. for the electric line to Seaside
The surveyors will have entirely com.
pleted their work within week or
thereabouts and then the next step Is
TO formally obtain the rights Of way.
Already virtually everyone over
whose land ne tracks are to pass has
signitied his willingness 10 donate the
necessary strip, but naturally before
the matter can be placed in proper
shape for the financing Il Is requisite
that the land owners formally sign
over the strips OF land. That this will
be done readily enough on their part
is thought to be ioregonc conelu-
sion. II there should be any one who
objects and demands money the only
alternative is for the company to di.
rect its routing in a new way, So
much enthusiasm, however, has been
shown by people along the line that
il is believed there will be no trouble
now. The city is expected to grant
any reasonable franchise asked by the
company, too, and il should now be,
only a matter OF very short time
before the whole matter will be in
shape to present to the one or more
financial institutions that are figuring
on financing the line
1t is said the route as laid out Is a
satisfactory one, though Of course II
will not prove a difficult matter TO
make slight changes il any be deemed
necessary

BASE BALL MAKING PROGRESS.

BASE BALL MAKING PROGRESS.
There was virtually ended in New York
yesterday what has been by long odds
the most successful season that the game
of base ball has ever enjoyed. In fact,
the game has occupied such a command
ing position in popular attention that
few people in the newspaper reading
public have not had their notice chal.
lenged by the reports and comments OF
the various games. This condition has
been brought about by the unprecedented
closeness of the contest for the premier

whole, too, that the status of the game
has been greatly raised by the elimina-

are inevitable in a body OF men drawn
from all spheres Of life and dominated
by the influence Of their former environ

tirely amenable to the dictates OF de.
cency when the predictions Of many Of
them are to the contrary, makes a diff

been performed in a fairly satisfactory
measure during this season Of 1908 The
reason for this seems to lie in the more
arbitrary powers invested in the officials
of the game, the umpires, who have the
right to send offending players from the
contests, with the additional possibility
that the offending players may be sus-
pended from the game by the board /
which controls each league. A tight rein |
is all that will keep the game Of base
