Trolley-car dwellers at vacation spots and lakes in this vicinity are still holding their long narrow forts, in spite of threatened action by irate neighbors who complain that the trolley cars are "unsightly, contrary to building ordinances, and black eye to the community"
 Several weeks ago, when the O. R. &c. L. was selling the trolleyS like hot.cakes, and buyers were having them transported to their property ct Hitchcock Lake, Cedar Lake, Kasson Grove, and other summer rendegous, the atmosphere in those localities was full of protest,
 Residents of Wolcott were going to resurrect an ordinance against trolley cars, and Kasson Grove lead- CTS were going to seek court orders for the removal of the cars. owners of the trolley cars assumed the the same attitude they maintain now, and told the objeetors to get their court order-if they could.
 Of recent days no work has been mentioned, and no moves have been taken toward the removal of the trolleys.
