THE RIVER
CRA KELT
Advices have been received from
Huntington to the effect that the Ore
gon Short Line has resumed work on
the Northwest railroad, the extension
from Huntington Homestead, which Is
the first line In the Huntington-Lewls-ton
proposed cut-off, says the Tele
gram. It Is stated that the O. S. L.
office at Salt Lake, from which point
this work will be directed, has issued
Instructions for the construction work
to be rushed with as much dispatch
as possible.
To that end three large grading out
fits were assembled at Huntington
Saturday, and they have gone down
the river to the various camps which
were abandoned when the general re
trenchment policy of the Harrtman
system was adopted last fall at the
time of the financial flurry. .
The Northwest Railroad company,
which Is to be a feeder for the Oregon
Short Line, proposes to complete the
60-mlle road from a point about two
miles out of Huntington and while it
Is to be built principally and for the
immediate present, at least to furnish
an outlet for the ores of the Iron Dyke
copper mine, It is believed that it Is
but the first link In a cut-off from
Huntington to Lewiston, which, when
completed, will be the main line of
the Oregon Short Line, and will divert
through traffic from Salt Lake to
Portland away from the heavy up and
down haul over the Blue mountains,
which Interpose the stlffest grades In
the entire length of the O. S. L.
Through traffic, both freight and
passenger, will then be sent down at
absolute water grade from Hunting
ton to Portland, by way of Lewiston,
connecting at that point with the Lew-lston-Rlparla
cut-off, over which the
first through train was just run, and
which was commemorated by the ex
cursion of Portland business men to
Lewiston and Clarkston.
. With such a cut-off In operation,, a
train could start at Huntington and
"coast" all the way to Portland, run
ning along the Snake river gorge to
Lewiston and then following the O.
R. & N. from Umatilla Junction,
through Pendleton and Baker City to
Huntington, would be a branch line
and service would bo local In charac
ter. The Potlme Cliangca.
At the Pastime this afternoon was
seen a complete change. The center
of attraction and the big hit of the
season at this popular amusement
place is the "Sleeping Beauty," a film
over 1000 feet long and entirely hand
painted. Managers La Fountain &
Dozler say this is the most remarkable
film sent out by any house.' The en
tire proRram Is to be seen In the house
ad. in this issue.
For Snle.
Two extra fine fresh milk cows,
will be sold cheap If taken at onco.
