Construction Work
Will be Rushed
Construction work on tba Or
pgon-KaNtern IUllroud, which la
to bo Urn new Hurrlman line
from the eastern border of the
atute to Central Oregon, will be
rushed with all potuiible ped,
with the evident Intention of
reaching Dog Mountain, In Har
ney county, HO mllea westof
Valo, before the eud of the com
ing year.
There will be no stopping at
Dog Mountain. Plans of the liar
rlman lytteni provide for exten
tion of tho now road to Hums,
which at present la the proposed
terminus. However the line will
extend evontually to Huud, and
may possibly ponotrate the Can
cades and llnd an outlet in the
VVlllamotto Valley.
As soon as tho road Is com
pleted to Bond, loss than 50 miles
will remain to connect It with the
main lino of the Southern I'ucltlc
at Crescent, which will be one of
the principal points on tho Na
trou-Klumnth cut -off, work upou
which now Is undor way.
It Is probable that tho extun
tion from 1 lend toCroscimt will
bo made even before the cut off
U tinlshfil. Cloudy construction
from Hums westward, therefore,
Is expected so that the K intern
Oregon country will have direct
connection with tho Willumulto
Valley, and that the heavy t radio
of the valley, which constantly is
growing heavier, may be handled
eastward without the circuitous
haul through I'ortland ana over
tho main lino of the O.W. It. &
N. Co.
Tho Harriman system will
complete the work planned to
. Eastern Oregon without delay, Is
the information coming from the
general offices of the Oregon
Short Lino at Salt Lake City. W.
H. Bancroft, goneral manager of
the Short Lluo, will have charge
of the construction work, while
Carl Stradley, chief engineer,
will direct the Held forces.
While the completion of the Eu
gene Coos Hay lino, now being
built by tho Southern Pacific,
will give the llurriuian interests
an opportunity to reach
the Coast at Coos Bay
from the east by a route much
shorter than auy of the existing
routes, the real object of tho
present activity in tho eastern
portion of tho state is not for
' this t urposo. It is ostensibly to
givo a more direct route from
Portland to the cast, and to pro
vide better facilities for handling
tho trade of the Willamette Val
ley and Central Oregon.
However, one of the primo ob
jects In this construction work is
to be the first in the Eastern Or
egon country that is now on the
eve of a period of development
that will make it a desirable ter
ritory for any railroad
A largo staff of engineers is at
work in Mainour Canyon and
other points botweon Vale and
Dog mountain, obtaining final
surveys In accordance with the
orders given by Judge Robert S.
Lovett, head of the Harriman
Bystom, when he was here two
weeks ago. As soon as these
survey reports are complotod,
contractors will be askod to bid
on the work. W. II. Watts, gen
eral manager of the Utah Con
struction Company, is so confi
dent that tho construction of the
first 110 miles will be authorized
before tho end of the winter
that he has had personal charge
of a force of men who are cover
ing the route with the view of ob
taining such information that
will bo of assistance to them In
bidding for tho entire project.
Tae Utah Construction Com
pany has done considerable work
for various Harriman ronds-in
tho last few years. At present
it Is completing a contract on
tho Natron Klamath cut off of the
Southern Pacific
Although the .Eastern Oregon
construction work is in charge
of Oregon Short Line officers, as
the road will connect directly
with the Short Line through Vale
and Ontario, It Is likely that, af
ter completion of the road, by
a connection with the Deschutes
line at Bond, official)! of tho O. W.
K. & N. Co. will take charge of
It Bnd operate it.

size, building two section houses
and a residence for the agent. A
12-cur stockyard is under way, and
a cold storage and ice plant will
soon be built. Local firms will
erect coal sheds near the right of

has finished drilling the well at
Opal City he will move the outfit
