PLANNING NEW ROAD.
Elgin Business Men Drelre New and
More Desirable Wagon Road.
Elgin business men are boosting a
proposition which should meet the
hearty approval of the county court
and all business men of La Grande,
It is a plan to shorten the wagon road
between La Grande and Elgin slightly,
principally to put the road on a river
grade all the way. According to the
plans now being discussed by Elgin
business men, the new road will
branch off from the Imbler road 'at
the Rlnehart crossing, bisecting the
McKlnnls, Bennett, Hlndman and
Hallgarth ranches. The road will fol
low the east bank of the Grande Ronde
river north and enter Elgin from, the
east.
It will mean the construction of
about three miles of road, but will
furnish river grade from Elgin to La
Grande, doing away with the hills of
the Bandridga road.
ABANDON OLD CHUTES.
Traveling Crane and Pockets Now Do

After years of service, the old coal

are now supplied with coal, from the
traveling pockets, which In turn' are
loaded by the traveling crane. The
work of "spotting" the engine is n
longer so troublesome, and the serv
