Th re seem to be little doubt of the earnretncH of
Huntington's intention to build a line of railroad from
the head of the Willamette valley up the middle fork
of the Willamette river and across the Cacalri it.to
Siutheaftcrn Oregon, and on through Nevada to trar
continental connection and through California to Saa
Francisco. Such a line will necessarily be, in a mea
ure, a rival to the Southern 1'acific, of which rual
Huntington is president, but in spite of this lurvrti
ar- being made ami right of way secured. The grn
rral route dinscn is one far sujcrior to the present one
Irtwern Portland and San Francisco for operation ia
winter time.
An effort is to lie made to protect American rail
r"nl from suffering in their competition with forrp
roads by reason of the exemption of the latter fruta
tlir provision of the interstate commerce law. A till
ha Urn introduced into the senate requiring f-rt:p
r-ads to prm'ure a license to exchange business
d'.inrstic roftdt, and this license is U remain in force
only while thoo nads observe the provision of our
intrrtat. commerce law. This is extending tip pr.n
ciplr of pn,tTtiot to railroads, to which they are w
mu( h rtitithnl A farmers and manufacturers. Wheth
er thf methml U practical is another question.
