tracks and for two feet outside either rail at a cost of approximately 14,000 a great deal of opposition developed si such u step practically meant the trol ley line would be burdened with u financial load which it could not bear supervisor hiram it smith repre senting the county conferred with tin village trustees on the mutter and heard many prominent layman and luwyers uppear liefore the board in support of the trolley lime and in oppo sition to shouldering it with a paving bill that would put it out of business efforts were made to have the coun ty proceed with the work of laying the concrete paving on drove street just as if there were no trolley line there and the project was laid over for a couple of months in the hope that some such solution of the problem could be reached the
