Inler-Urban Cars, The Sontern Pacific Company is to put on this spring inter-urban cars between Forest Grove, Hillsboro and Portland. The cars are now being built iu the East aud eaoh will be- propelled by gasoline engines and be capable ot giving the car a high speed. These cars are built on the plan of the large electric cars and are to make hourly trips, but their sched ule will not ohange the present train , service on that section of the West Side road. The lnter-urban traffic Is increasing so rapidly that on the Southern Pa' oiflo road throughout Rogue river val ley that it will be but a few years un- til the oompany will be inaugroting speoial car service between Grants Pass, Gold Hilt Medford and Ash land. It is no uncommon occurrence for ten to twenty passengers getting off and on the train at Medford com-" ing from or going to other towns in the valley and this inter-urban traffic is certain to increase rapidly from this on, as the population of th Rogue river valley grows and the time ia not distant when the through trains will not be able to properly ac commodate the looal passenger ser vice. It will not be so far in the fu ture when Rogue river valley wil. have 100,000 peoplo and then there j will be an hourly truln service by fast. gasoline or electrio cars between the several towns of the valley, reaching maybe, over into Siskiyou county, Calif. 1:
