NOT YET DECIDED UPON 238 BUILDING PERMITS ISSUED IN HAILEYBURY Despatches in Toronto and other out side newspapers to the effect that the Ontario Government has decided upon the early electrification of the T. N. 0. Railway are at the best rather preâ€" mature, and at the worst may ‘be abâ€" solutely untrue. Several months ago the T. N. 0. Railway Commission made a detailed report to the Governâ€" ment in the matter, with estimates of cost, engineers‘ reports, specifications, recommendations, ete. ‘This report is still before the Government and no decision has yet been made about it. Whether the Government will decide upon eleétrification of the People‘s Railway, or not, remains yét to be seen. In any case there is not likely to ‘be any very ‘‘early"‘ electrification, as the question is still under considerâ€" ation and even after a definite deciâ€" sion is reached there will be much red tape to be attendedto before anything canhbe. started one way or another. ‘Up to the end of last week 238 build ing permits had been issued in Haiâ€" leybury since the big fire. Other apâ€" plications for permits for building are coming in each day. Likely ‘by the time this paper is issued 250 or more building permits will have been issued for the new town of Haileybhurv.
