Those who are interested in the Ivy power project are seriously considering, it is said, the practicability of building an electric) street car line between Jupiter and this city. It is believed that the company would have no difficulty in securing the right of way and the ties for suohva Une, as some proposi tions along this line Wave already been m'ade by persons who own, property between Asneville and Weaverville. Dr. I. A. Harris, who was here yester day from Jupiter, says he is of the opinion that the people in his section would be glad of an opportunity to furniish a sufficient number of ties for the proposed line between Jupiter and Weaverville. Dr. Harris gave the information that S i a capitalists from New York had vis- ted Red Oak mountain, near Jupiter, with a view to erecting a big hotel in that locality. It. is Said that the view to be had from the motintlain is a mag nificent one.
