accordance willi the instruction of the
board, Kosd Supervisor i'lank hna
itartod the work of touring away the
structure and intends to temporarily
replace It by putting in a structure
nearer the ground, aomothlng that will
answer for uae thla winter. When

bearing around the contour of the bluff
to a do lit nuar where the "Canyon"
bridge now standi, wliera thu present
road will lie intercepts,
It la laid that thl plan and mute will
not onlv be far more practicable but
will afford a much cheaper and more
permanent thorough luro. urlglnally
thia bridge waa a costly structure, but it
jja called fur ihe outlay of but little
cash or labor iu keeping it in repair,
However. It tine outlived ita usefulness
mid ia considerably decayed and not
perfectly aafo for travel. It terved ita
uuhmmm) well, but it la now believed
that to diaporae with the bridge and
abandon the preiient route from the
south end of the structure will In future
be more economical and ia now more
nract cal.
Hnlendld road material la to be had
all along the propositi route fur the new
road, the utilisation of which will not only
afford (rood and permanent roadbed,
but it will reduoe the coat of construc
tion and maintenance almost to a mini'
mum. One of the moat neceiwary things
to be puriuexl in our road work ia to
permanently locate, our roaua on a inor
uughly practical basis, avoiding bridges
M muoh aa poaalble, because their life
ia short and coat and maintenance enor
mous. The road located on aolid terra
Srin, can in lime be worked up to a
cares of absolute perfuctnuae and solid
ity, if not by the ordinary methods then
certainly by the employment of more
modern means of tlrat acquiring the
aolid foundation thence covering it
with crushed rock and gravel until the
roadbed becomes almost aolid cement,
Thia degree ol perfection cannot be
hoped to be accomplished in a year or
two, but we eipect to remain here and
continue the work of road building u a
business ami in the hope of bringing up
' the standard of the quality of our thor
oughfares. " We know by siperirnoe
that slipshod methods of road building
avail nothing. It's good money thrown
after bad to continue in such work.
The sooner the County starts out on a
crusade of abandoning impracticable
routes and establishing highways on
natural locationa and with a view to
making roads, of them roads that we
ran hope to work up to become roads,
then will wo have opened the way to bet
ter thoroughfares throughout ourCounty.
The anving of 12,500 more or lesi each
year of Intercut paid on the public debt,
can with abumhtnt profit, be applied
tin bur road. This ia not an important
factor when considered for but one year,
but ita application on the roads year
niter yar, aa can now certainly be the
case since tht publio debt has been so
reduced, means that the aggregate after
number of yours must certainly be
come of eontu public benefit in a notice
able improvement in the public roads.
We eanuot hope to attain to all this
atate of perfection iu a ahort time, but
with the roads properly located and
each year properly worked, we may
reasonably expect a decided improve

V. Ifciker's new atom

was
the
RAIfiHUAD AGITATION.
Another Hove for Road to Nehalem
lluai and Timber.
Tuesday's nregunliu.
A project for a railroad from Portland
to the Nehalem coal Held la taking
shape. Those who are ou the Inside ol
the negotiations decline to be quoted,
nut it is evident that a careiui examina
tion of the couutry has been made, and
fiatallof the necessarU-s (or determining
the matter has been gathered and ia
available for use. It ia unloosed that
influences favorable to the Great North
ern are behind the preseut Nehalem
project. It is expected that something
definite regardiug the building of the
line will be given out in a few duye. It
ia expected to , bring the Nehalem coal
and timber, us well as the agricultural
Iiroducta of Tillamook County, to Port
am! direct. '
Thia route uiakea the distance from
Portland to Nehnlem bay lesa than 78
luilea. It contemplates going out a few
miles on 0110 of two tracks already built
on the Hoiithcru 1'aelflu to Hillsboro,
or on the Northern Pacific to a point
near Ilolbrook, at the mouth of Cor
nelius 'Gap. The Hillsboro route, iu
connection with the Southern Pacific,
would leave only 68 miles of new track
to build to reach Nehalem Buy; from
the Northern Pacific near Llnnton the
mileage of new road to build would be
a little more than 78 mites. On neither
route wonld the grade exceed 2 per cent.
The grade of Fourth street, Portland, is
about 4 per cent. The higheet elevation
reached would be less than 1100 feet
above the sea.
The main line would go down -the
Salmon llcrry branch of thu Nehalem to
its Junction with the main river, and
then down.- the river to Nehalem Bay,
where it would command the shipments
of coal and Himbef from the Lower Ne
lialeiQ country.':-A branch- would leave
the main line near the summit and
, penetrate the heart of the Upper Nelia
leut Valley. Nehalem Bay can be made
safe port for coasting vessels at small
pipeline. An extension of the railroad
12 miles down the coast from Nehalem
Hay to Tillamook Bay would afford that
rich region the trannportion facilities
.essential to its development.
Two reasons are given for favoring this
route to the Nehalem country over the
route via Astoria. One ia that the dis
tance is little more than half as great,
and the other Is that tho local buainoss
along the proposed direct line would be
large and pecullarlyvaluHble to Portland.
From the mouth of the Nehrlvm to Port
land via Astoria la 140 miles: via the
proposed new line, 78 miles. The new
line would tan ft large area of unsurpass
ed timber, tiie manufacture of which
would keep Portland mills busy for
many years. The coal of the Lower Ne
halem, concerning the quantity and
auality of which there is snid to be no
onbt, would be a bonanna for Portland
at once. The coal of the Upper Nehalem
is reported to be lesa valuable on account
of the sulphur it bears. The valley of tho
Nehalem la also rich In agricultural pos
aibilitiea, and the whole coast country is
unsurpassed for dairying.
