A Step In The Right Direction

The electric street railroad people have at last "got a move on them." Tomorrow the committee on the consolidation of the electric line with the motor line will take a trip over the motor line in company with representatives of the Wayne Electric Co. and the Thompson Houston Electric company for the purpose of determening a good point for a power house and getting estimates of the cost of equipping the motor line and reequipping the electric line out of the electric supply corapanies represented. They will obtain estimates for new overhead fixtures for the Ann Arbor line and for building the additional line for which they have franchises in this city. The Argus trusts that satisfactory arrangements may be made. The equipment of the motor line with electricity will be a great boon to the town cities and the reopening of the Ann Arbor line will be very greatly appreciated by our citizens who have missed the street cars.
