Practical bridge men are near Vancouver where the Columbia will be bridged and from that point surveys run to Saint Johns. Here the Willamette will be bridged in order that trains can get into Port laud without the trouble and ex pense of ferry transfer. There is a possible route for the road near Woodlawn but in railway circles it is conceded that the Saint Johns route is the more feasible of the wo and allows more independ ence of action. l ni KKvutW congratulates itself ,,, ci,ii,l I ll.nl lltt.1 .li.0 lima firol ifittnti in I . mm tin.- ii.7 itm Hint iivwii 1 arrangeu. me iniuiic mrouKii mcse columns, even though the later information apieared in other journals.
