It w ill be remembered that in 181M a

l i n e o f electric r ai l w ay was pro jected

fr o m Dix o n to Ro ckfo rd and a co mpany o rganized under letters o f in ­ co rpo ratio n by the state, under the name o f the Ro ck Riv er Electric Rail­ way Co mpany . So me o f o ur » leading citizens were o fficially interested: a franchise was asked fo r and granted by the city : a ro ute surv ey ed and right o f way Secured thro ugh that po rtio n o f this co unty to be trav ersed, and ev ery ­ thing appeared fav o rable fo r a time fo r the pro po sed electric traffic and trav el co nnectio n o f Ro ckfo rd and Dix o n, by way o f Orego n, thro ugh the heart o f the beautiful Ro ck Riv er v al­ ley . But at this junctio n a clo ud lo o m­ ed up o n the ho rizo n, which spread o v er the financial sky . The last y ears o f the o utgo ing administratio n were y ears o f gro wing depressio n, and the stringency drew so tight the purse strings o f the mo nied men o f the East that it was impo ssible to secure the necessary capital fo r the inauguratio n o f this o r any o ther new enterprise. Besides, when institutio ns which had flo urished fo r twenty y ears under a Republican administratio n were no lo nger pay ing a div idend: when banks were failing and building enterprises sto pped; when the party in po wer was threatening the-further demo ralizatio n o f business by debasing o ur currency ,— the scheme which, under o ther circum­ stances wo uld hav e been a reaso nable and a feasible o ne, wo uld hav e been Uto pian in the ex treme. The plans fo r an electric rail wav between Dix o n and Ro ckfo rd were therefo re tempo r­ arily laid aside to await a mo re pro ­ pitio us seaso n and mo re fav o rable in- v iro nment. That seaso n is at hand. The skies are clearing, trade is rev iv ­ ing, new enterprises are starting, building is pro gressing, the purse strings o f the capitalists hav e lo o sened and mo ney is seeking inv estment and can be o btained in abundance o n the mo st fav o rable terms. The d e s i r a b i l ­ ity o f the ro ad has been tho ro ughly canv assed and admitted. 1 he pro s­ pect o f its financial success was claimed by the management mder less fav o ra­ ble circumstances than tho se which no w surro und it. May we no t, there­ fo re, no w ho pe to »00 this enterprise taken . * and at o nce pushed to co m­ pletio n. The ho pe is especially pertinent just no w, as we see by recent ex changes that the pro po sed electric railway co n­ necting Jamo sv ille and Ro ckfo rd is getting o ut o f the abstract into the co ncrete. Pro jecto rs o f this line pro mise that po ssibly by spring these cities will be co nnected by swiftly mo v ­ ing tro lly cars, say s the Belo it News. The right o f way has been secured fro m Ro ckfo rd to Belo it, and when co m­ pleted fro m that po int to James- v ille, the wo rk o f co nstructio n will be co mmenced. The ro ad to Belo it will keep in v iew the beautiful riv er nearly the who le way , thus fo llo wing the idea in the surv ey o l the ro ad fro m Ro ck­

fo rd to Dix o n. Ev entually it is the in­

t e n t i o n to co ntinue the line o n to Mad­ iso n; at present, ho wev er, the line will o nly be e x t e n d e d no rth to Janesv ille. When c o m p l e t e d , cars will run each way between the two cities e v e r y ho ur

a n d in additio n to passenger and bag­

g a g e serv ice will hav e a quick and safe mail and e x p r e s s serv ice. if ev ­

e r y t h i n g go es s m o o t h l y and the city co uncils are no t slo w to grant fran­ chise« , the ro ad will be co nstructed this winter and be ready fo r o peratio n

in March. In co mmenting o n this, the Ggle Co unty Republican o f Orego n, say s that the gentlemeu who hav e the mat­ ter in charge, and who represent a j co mpany which has sev eral similar « ro ads ,iri succeHsful o peratio n, hav e , . pro mised a v isit to Orego n in a few day » to lo o k o v er what it turn to o f- , fer a- an inducement to co ntinue the ! line to that city , and pro bably to Dix o n. 1 and to lo o k ev er the pro po sed ro utes and estimate t he ex pense o f building | the same. Orego n has felt fo r y ears 1 the necessity o f getting in to uch with ! the o utside wo rld and will o iTer ev ery po ssible inducement to get into the cur­ rent if there be a po ssible chance to better its co nditio n. We ho pe that the Ro ck Riv er Elec­ tric Railway Co mpany (with o fficers in Ro ckfo rd, Orego n and Dix o n) which has already do ne so much o f the pre­ liminary wo rk fo r a direct railway co nnectio n between Dix o n and Ro ck­ fo rd, will at o nce take the matter up,
