WE'D, JAN. 10, 1910.


to be in the minds Of the people
generally and while many are in
clined to believeEthat it will be
built, some are doubling every
move made and can not see in it
the slightest hope. Just at this
time there are ample reasons to
justify the hope+that a road will
be built from Greensburg to Co.
lumbia and in fact reasons that
it will be done, but to succeed it
will require the liberal and united
support of the people of Colum-
bia and vicinity. The Company
proposing to build has already
had it S representative on the
ground and report covering
costs and showing receipts have
been made. At a. meeting held
last Saturday by a few of the in
terested citizens committee was
selected to take" up the PROPOSE
ton with thessss Company and to
confer with the officials of the L.
& N. Road. This will be done
in the near future, and at that
time a definite proposition sub
mitted to the people of this and
Green counties. From what we
have heard of the Company in
terested in the proposition and
the report and correspondence,
the building o f the road i S a
certainty if this section comes up
with the reasonable demands it
requires. The fact is that the
present opportunity is too good
to meet with indifference on the
part of any one who is interested
in the advancement and develop
ment of this county. True sew
-eral propositions have heretofore
failed, but they should not dis
courage or affect this one in the
least. With a railroad the de-
velopment Of Columbia and Adair
county would be rapid and per-
manent and che increase in val
ues would more than offset the
expense in building within few
years. Columbia is already a
good town with much more evil
dence of thrift and enterprise than
many towns double its size with
good railroad facilities, but if we
had the service now contemplate
ed its growth would be surpris-
ing. Again, the advance in farm
products would add much to the
thrift of the county and would
save the farmers thousands OF
dollars per annum in freight as
well as give them an increase in
the price of live stock. With the
good farm lands of this section
and t h industry, intelligent,
progressive farmers in c los c
touch with the markets the prod
ucts would at least double with
In a few years. To remain a
back county with the resources
of this section is out of the ordi-
nary, a tremendous mistake and
inexcusable. The people of Co.
lumbia and Adair county have
the property and money to meet
any reasonable demands of out
siders who will invest in a rail.
road enterprise, and when.such
a proposition is submitted, which
will doubtless be done at an ..ear-
ly day, every man ought to come
to the rescue with liberal sub.

Gifted in Answer
MONROE MAKES THE AWARD

At the conclusion of the argument
yesterday in the case. of G. S. Young
against Timothy Spellacy, Judge Mon
roe, of the superior court, gave Spellacy
a judgment against Young for $4954.52.

Young also is required by the judg-
ment against him to return to Spellacy

nois Crude Oil company and in addition
Is ordered to pay the costs of the suit.
When Young returns to Spellacy the

suit and the judgment of S495452, he
will receive from Spellacy 1900 shares

mitted Young is entitled.

ceded that amount of the stock In

the stock of the Mascot Oil company as
well as half of the stock of the Illinois

tionS In connection with which the
stock ownerships were acquired.

SANTA MONICA, Aug. 26.-Club

The entertainment was given by the
Santa Monica Woman's club to raise
funds to build a club home in this

took active part in the presentation
of the tableaux, each of which was
Verp realistic. Among those who
worked necessarily to make the even
ing a success were Mr.. and Mrs. Roy
Jones, who arranged the stage and
decorations and directed the tableauX.
Mr.. Jones took a personal interest in
designing the costumes worn by the
participants.
Beautiful women and girls of Santa
Monica appeared to good advantage
in the living pictures. Included in

Property Owners Favor
Proposed Structure
BOWEN WILL FIGHT PLAN

Announcement by the Pacific Elec-
trio company that it intends to build
q big car barn south of Agricultural
park, facing on Santa Barbara avenue,
has caused O hot controversy to de-
velop among residents just south of the
park. p. e. Bowen, president of the
Santa Barbara avenue improvement
association, is leading the opposition to
the plan. The Pacific Electric COM
pany, on the other hand, claims to
4 have canvassed the district and as
serts that a majority of the property
owners favor the project
Bowen and his associates, including
members of seevral improvement as
sociations, want the city to condemn
the strip on which the Pacific Electric
propose to build as a public park, and
add it to Agricultural park. They pro-
pose to have a hearing on this plan
next Thursday. Last night the follow
ing statement was given out by
representative of the Huntington In
terests:
1.-THE sixteen-acre tract adjoining
Agricultural park on the south side
has been transferred by the Redondo
Improvement company to the Pacific
Electric company, and Mr.. Huntington
will erect, regardless of Mr.. Bowen's7
objections, which we regard as purely
majority of the property owners in
that vicinity, a 1000-foot steel rein
forced concrete car house in the near
future.
I'VE have canvassed many of the
property owners in that section, and
have been given to understand that
there will be no objection. The plans
call for an entrance to the park from
the south side, and this feature seems
to satisfy the property owners that
we interviewed, as the car house, when
completed, will completely obstruct the
view of the stables to be erected at
the south end of the park by the Los
Angeles Driving club.
when completed this car house will
be one of the finest and largest in the
state, being 1000 feet long by $50 feet
wide, built entirely of concrete and
steel. With a car house of that ca
pacity the company will be able to
give the residents of southwest Los
Angeles the best of car service. Under
the present conegsted condition 1t is
hard for the company to give the res
idents of the southwest good service,
and that section of the city is grow
ing very rapidly.
Before the company decided to build
100000 was offered for a site in the
southwest section, but at this large
figure 1t was impossible to get e. de-

DEFECTIVE WIRING IS

TALLY destroyed the home of H. H.

the time of the fire and the housekeep-
err Miss B. Rollins. was also absent
from the house. The fire was discov-
cred by J. C. Holden, private watch
man. who was passing the house on

the niano and a few of the more
expensive pieces of furniture.

SUPREME COURT AFFIRMS
BURR -MkCLAY DECISION

Word was received yesterday that
the state supreme court had affirmed
a Judgment of the superior court in
the civil action instituted against the
Maclay Rancho Water company by
John Burr for the right to pump water
from ranch lands in the San Fernando
valley. The superior court rendered a
decision in favor of Burr but placed
certain restrictions in the decision
which did not meet with the plaintiff's
approval, therefore he took an appeal
to the state supreme court.
