PUyALLUP VALLEY
WANTS ANOTHER
STATION

A delegation of citizens from
the Puyallup valley appeared be-
fore the county commissioners
this morning with a request that
the franchise for the new Puyal-
lup Short Line be held up until
the Puget Sound Electric COM
pany will agree to put a siding
and station at a point where the
line crosses the county road be-
tween Willow Junction and Brook
dale.
The valley delegation was head
ed by Henry Sicade and Frank
Albert, heavy property owners,
who claim that at present they
are forced to haul their garden
produce and other goods which
they want to be shipped to town,
fully a half mile to the nearest
station.
The main line, 1t is said, runs
directly through the property of
both men but the company will
build no station, nor will 1t tsop
at any intermediate points. Man
ager w. 8. Dimmock, of the Puget
Sound Electric company, was pres
ent at the meeting, and told the
commissioners that the schedule
of the Short Line Is already ten
minutes longer than was at first
proposed, and that additional sta
tons would greatly Increase the
running time of the trains.
The matter was taken under ad-
visement by the commissioners.
