Vft The recent con ference at the state capital between President- Ralph Budd. of the Oreat '. Northern railroad, Governor Julius L. Meier and Charles M.

Conjecture -on the subject among those who are Inter ested In development of the state and who are familiar with railroad history, relegated politics far Into For Coughs Too Deep To Risk A Lesser Help Oeomulaion was made to deal with t Houghs and colds which hang on. A three-day cough is a danger signal. There the utmost should be done. But a Irifling cough may develop in to something deep and difficult. Don't you think it wise to use the utmost ielp, even if a lesser help might do? j Crcomulsion combines seven major Helps in one. The seven best helps known to medical science. One is .best for one type of cough, one for 'others. Nobody can tell in advance. "So the best way seems to be to com June all in one prescription. Creosote stands first.

In connection with the meeting four important events and situations during the past few years strengthen ed speculation concerning two pro posals Involving the Northern lines Thuy aro: 1. Common user with the Southern Pacific over the Natron cutoff. At mo lime me inierH.&wj commerce commission granted permission to the Southern Pacific to construct tho route from Eugene to Klamath Falls it was stipulated that common user privileges must bo granted to any other road If such were desired. 2. Joint highway and railroad bridge across Coos bay. Several years ago tho Northern lines proposed to the state highway commission that In event a bridge be constructed at the mouth of Coos river or over Coos bay, It be made a Joint highway and railroad bridge. This proposal was mado by the railroad. The bridge, however, has not been constructed or ordered. 3. The recent Inspection of the en tiro Southwestern Oregon section by Budd In tho compuny of englneors and other railroad men. 4. The present long route the northern lines are required to traverse .from Portland to San Francisco. In order to reach San Francisco now from the north the trains must cross the river at Portland to Vancouver; j go east along the Columbia and cross It again to connect with the Oregon Short line to Bend, then down to Klamath Falls and over Its recently connected link southeast to the Western Pacific. As a result of these situations two B ecause GRANDE EVENING OBSERVER, LA GRANDE, proposals . left open to tho Oreat Northern have' been suggested. The .first, the more readily attained, and excellent for passengor traffic, would be to utilise the Oregon Electric from Portland to Eugene, apply for com mon user over the Southern Pacific to Klamath Falls, and then go south on Its completed link. 'This would 'al so serve to make the Oregon Electric a main line instead of a dead end. , New Construction Involved Tho other . - proposal, - to obtain freight tonnage, would Involve new construction Into Coos Bay. Again tho Oregon Electric would be used from Portland to Eugene.' From this point an extension would be mode from Eugent to Lorane, going southwest, which stretch already, has been sur veyed. From Lorane the proposed route, based on surveys and engineering in vestigation, would extend southwest to the Umpqua river above Elk ton. From here It would follow the river to the Coos river watershed above Scottsburg. From, this point the road would follow the river into Coos Bay, This route would tap timber tonnage and give the oreat northern an out let to the sea. Speculation at present does . rn carry the route further, but this line would make It possible for the Oreat Northern to build on southward along the coast to San Francisco, giving the lino a direct route into the bay dlsi trlct. Neither President Budd nor Com missioner Thomas would comment on these proposals. Jnn WntArmAn. HMir.tlA hmtlnff ntn- moter,' will conduct boxing shows In both Seattle and Portland this win ter.
