PAUL » TWO TRAINS Great Northern Plans to Send Trains to Coast Semi-Monthly prrtivc land buyers and scttlcra o f the cast and middle west in direct touch with thuee portions o f Oregon in which the railway officials seek to have them locate. The first special train left S t Paul Tuesday. March 21, and will arrive in Portland about a wrek later. Stops will l*e made at various points on the line to give the travelers opportunity to see the farming country and the small towns of North Dakota. Montana. Idaho ami Washington before reaching Oregon, the ultimate destination of the train. A few days will be allowed for sight seeing and visiting in Portland. Then the trains will run over the North Bank and Oregon Trunk roads into the newly oprned territory in this section of the state. The first train will be unable, of course, to proceed farther than Metolius, but stages ami automobiles will be pro vided at that point to take the visitors to any desired locality. As fa»t as the road ia built south, however, the suc ceeding excursions will go to the end of the tracks. Arrangements have been completed for the organisation of two excursion parties a month starting from St. Paul on the first and third Tuesdays. The passenger list for the tram of March 21 was Ailed and many are signing for the trips begining April 4, April lit. May 2 and Msy 16. From 2UU to 250 peo ple will be carried on every train.

From Chicago $33, S t Louis $72, St. Paul $25. Kansas City $25, Omaha $25. Other points in proportion, via Burlington route. Great Northern or Northern Pacific Rys., the ‘ ‘North Bank Road” and Oregon Trunk Ry. This is a good chance for your friends to come to Oregon on about half fare. R o u n d T r ip F o re s service on the Deschutes line o f the O. W. R. & N. Co. to Madras and Metoliua will be inaugurated over the company’s rails about April 20th and probably as early as April 15. The time when traffic will be opened to those points dependa upon the time the tracks are laid into them. Until that time the Harriman line will make no efTort whatever to handle aither freight or paaaenger traffic south of Trout Creek its present terminus. In the meantime, however, traffic of- j ficials are figuring on the kind of service they will establish, in both freight and (lasscnger departments. The schedule has not been arranged however, nor has the kind o f equipment received serious consideration. The track laying crews o f the Des chutes line now are working about half way between Trout Creek and Madras, near the new town of Gateway, which promises to become one of the most important in Central Oregon. A party of Portland men left last week for Gateway to lay out the town- site and arrange for the erection o f a number of buildings, including probab ly a hotel, a general store and some dwellings. The railroad will put up a first class passenger depot, ample freight sheds and a spacious grain warehouse. As this place is to be the shipping point for an immense area of wheat land, hundreds of thousands of bushels of grain will ttow through the reposi tories there every year. It is at the foot o f the slope of the Agency plains, which for years have produced large quantities o f wheat. But the farmers have been discouraged in grain culture on account o f the expense in hauling it across the country to the nearest rail road shipping point.
