Each of these gentlemen Is unique In his own field. Colonel Hofer Is -a born organizer and promoter of enter prises on a large scale, and Is virtu ally at the head of the railroad that Is being pushed through from Coos Bay to Boise. Over one hundred miles of location survey and right of 'way are completed, and the 'work of construction begins this fall. The line runs from the richest section of this state across the virgin terri tory of Central Oregon, djrect east and west to the largest harbor on ihe Pacific coast between Puget Sound and San Francisco, having four hundred square miles of the Jlnest coal fields on the coast, and seventy billion feet of fir, spruce and cednr timber, and 15,000 population, and cities with paved streets and solid brick blocks for miles on the water front. A port commission has been organized under an act of the Oregon legislature that is spending $500,000 building four miles of waterfront that Is to bo the western terminal of the new transcontinental line. Col. Hofer Is a newspaper man of German descent and a man of wonderful executive ability, prom ising to be another Honry Vlllard In the development of the Inland Em pire, and finding a new outlet to the Pacific and the Orient by a route that is several hundred miles nearer than any present transcontinental lino."
