MARRIED.
"Porter Brothers take contracts
for every distance from one mile up.
Nothing is too large or too small for
them to handle if there is money in
it, but I will say that at the present
time we are very busy aud are not
looking for small roads."
Mr. Porter was then' informed that
certain parties were thinking ofr.Tn
vesting in certain timber near !the
Fish Lake pass and were only await
ing the confirmation of the fact that ,
the road was to be extended into' the
Klamath valley.
"Tell , them to buy the timber."
was his reply.
Took Interest in Country. -
Mr. Porter showed a great interest
in the country lying between Medford
and Crater Lake and asked innumer
able questions regarding its resources
and possibilities. . He was most en
thusiastic over central . Oregon and
stated that there could be no doubt
but that the Pacific & Eastern would
prove a valuable feeder to any line !
to which it might connect. At the
present time Porter Brothers have
men scattered along the country from
The Dalles to Medford. Not one
break appeurs in the chain. Engin-
ecring parties are busy, grading is
under way. and more men are con
stantly being added to their forces.
As to a Main Line.
Mr. Porter declined to make n
statement regarding the story which
recently appeared in- the Oregoninn
as to the main line running through
Medford to Crescent City and down
the coast. He simply stated that he
was building roads where he was told
to build them, and that he did not
know where the outlet, if there was
to be an outlet, would run.
The elevation of the Fish Lake pass
is some fiOOO feet, which means con
siderable of a grade, and regarding
the feasibility of putting a road over
it Mr. Porter was most dubious, if
that grade was to he on a main line.
Era of Road Building.
"We nrc simply building in Oregon
at the present time," continued Mr.
Porter. "Whether we will build into
California or not is a question which
I cannot answer. I do believe, how
ever, that an era of railroad build
ing is at hand in Oregon, and for that
matter throughout the entire north
west. Transcontinental lines must
be fed. and Oregon furnishes a great
field for the construction of such
roads. Where these ronds (ire to be
built and where tliey are to connect
is a mntter that the future alone can
decide."
This was Mr. Porter's first trip to
the rim of Crater Lake... although he
came through last year by Arant
enmp. While enthusiastic about the
, lako ns a scenic attraction, he looked
at. it probably differently than any
other man who lias ever stood upon
its brink. lie immediately began to
figure out how many times n rail
road would linve to encircle its pre-

Rapid building up of the East Side
is predicted as u result of the open
ing of streets to the Imperial uddU
lion, which lies west of Xob Hill: The
city council has been petitioned to
open streets and lay water mains
' through the Smith tract, so that
building now i:i con tcmplii lion in Im
perial mav proceed. A total of 431
lots out of 1-3 in the Imperial ad
dition have been sold, most ol them
to persons contemplating building.
Plans for a score of bungalows have
been drawn and work Uegins within
I a few days on the first one, being

With the paving of East Main,
which will undoubtedly be pnYcd next

IMPERIAL ADDITION
Imperial addition was opened in May. We have sold
45 lots, a great many of them to people who expect to
build on them in the near future. When we unmcd the
addition we advertised that we would give away one lot
to the purchasers of the first 25. This we have done. The
lot owners deciding it by a drawing, Phil Loosly being the
lucky man. Now we are going to make the same offer on
the next 25 lots sold. AVe are also going to commence
building a neat modern bungalow in this addition to sell
on easy terms, and will continue to build them as long as
there is a demand for houses. In our judgment,
MEDFORD WILL
DOUBLE IN POPULATION
in the next two,ycars. Next summer East Main street will
be paved and East Side values will double up. Now is the
time to buy a lot in Imperial addition a small amount of
cash down and vour own time on the balance.
