PACIFIC & EASTERN DEAL.
('.ontinuH frcin pngf) 1.)
lumber munufactnred, so that it will
not be uecessnry to depend entirely
on outside shipments.
, The first holdings reached by the
Pacific & Eustem uro those of the
Crater haku Lumber company. Upon
there uro n number of sugar pine
trees, veritable giunts of the forost,
which contain from 25,(100 to 30,000
feet each of lumber, sufficient to
completely fill the largest furniture
curs lauded to their fullest cupaeity.
Their holdings eompriso 15,000 acres
in a solid body, which is on practi
cally level ground, nnd it is estimat
ed that this timber can be logged for
$2.50 a thousand feet. In compari
son it will cost from $5 to $8 to log
ging in most other holdings on the
coast.
Comparison With Fruit.
Eifty per cent of this land, after
the timber is cut, will bo cleared and
put under cultivation, nnd sold to
employes in smull tracts. Other ex
tensive holdings in the timber belt
ulso have mills upon, nnd manufac
turing will begin nt once upon the
completion of tho road.
When it is considered that tho en
tire fruit crop of the liogue liiver
valley for tins yenr lsostimaled nt
000 carloads, or nu average of three
care per day, it will be seen what n
great tonnage in comparison there
will bo from tho timber belt. If only
200,000 feel of timber n day nro cut,
it will mean an average of five cards.
The present capacity of the mills is
approximately 500,000 feet, which
would mean five or six times tile ton
nage furnished by tho entire orchard
urea at present.
Who Allen Is.
J. It. Allen, the purchaser of the
Pacific & Enstcrn, is a prnctienl rail
road man of long experience. Until
recently he had charge of the Pan
ama railroad, previous to Hint ho was
president of tho Union Depot com
pany at Spokane, and before that di
vision superintendent of the Grout
Northern nnd chief dispatcher of tho
Northern Pacific. IIo is a big man
in Wull street anil is connected with
several railroad properties, ns well us
being prominent in muniing circles.
He represented Robert S. Towno in
tho nnrchaso of tho Hluo Ledgo mine,
and it is presumed that Mr. Towne is
nsscoeiuted with him in the purdiaso
of the Pacific! & Knstern, and that
the roud will bo extended to the Win1
l.cdge copper, mine, but there is no
authority for such a statement. j
Coal Revenues.
I In addition to the timber belt, the j
! road can nlsn receive a revenue from .
j handling coal from the local coal j
i field about Medford. Colonel ,). Y. 1
Miindy. who is developing the I (
'mines, estibates that the output of
i coal will total 2000 tons a day with
I in three vein's. Part of this coal can
be used to operate a smelter at Hie
' Itlue l.ciU'C mine. The coal itself will
I l'nriiili tonnage sufficient tn justify
nn investment niiiiiv linn'
the cost of
building u railroad.
Harrimati Co-Operates
The most hopeful sign in connec
tion with the sale of the Pacific &
Eastern is the active en-operulion of
the llarriinan system, which has
agreed to furnish the rails necessary
on long-term payment. This is the'
first lime thai any effort has been
made by the llarriman people to ac
tively co-npelale ill the development
of territory tributary to their main
line, and indicates that Mr. llarriman
was mi re in ibe .tnteinenls that he
: lm'de to Hie people of Oregon, when
ni asserted that he was willing and
