Much capital Is behind the enterprise and this pro ject must of necessity attract enor mous attention to that great portion of Oregon, which only needs Improved transportation facilities to make it oae of the most productive and popular sections of the northwest, and the rap Id settlement of these lands will force the building of the transportation lines.
