passenger ag'2nt conference in Chica

point to a tremendously heavy colonist
movement to Oregon this fall.

McMurray last night, "and all report

Last year the fall colonist rate' period
brought 13.000 people to Oregon 6ver
the Harrlman lines, but this number,
I am eure. will seem inalgnliflcant
compared with the traffic we may look
for this fall. ; ; v
"The Harrlman Unea have spent for
tunes In advertising Oregon In the
east and it seems that the work will
bring excellent results. It appears
that the extensive publicity that has
been carried on by the railroads and
the commercial organizations Is now
really beginning to bring results'.
"The people In the east are getting
more and mora interested In the west,
and they are eager to seek their for
tunes, in his new land, as they regard
Oregon. '' ' " ; . -'- i,
' "Wi have already ascertained that
It will be Impossible to handle the
great colonist movement with our reg

to operate special colonist trains to
Oregon. These trains will reach Port

equipped for the traffic and will carry
a special dining car Bervlce with oth
