Northern Pacific is Hunting for a
River Crowing.
Railroad work is bclnir nushed as
rapidly as ossible uud prospects
are iiiai witiiiu tinny uuya .tame
thing will le doing to awaken all
business lines.
Rumors have been current that
the Northern Pacific has positively
abandoned the St. Johns crossing of
the Willamette but all conditions
now point to the fact that the
oflicials will stick to the original
intention of cro&siug here at St.
Johns aud putting in a huge draw
bridge.
Four or five routes have been
surveyed front Vancouver to the
bauks of the Willamette, and sound
ings have been taken in several
places in the river bed. Men have
been stationed for a three-day period
several times to count every boat
passing in either direction during
the 72 hours in order to ascertain
how many times the draw would
have to ooen durintr the busy
season. The total number of vessels
requiring the opening of the draw
cannot be ascertained: but these
mimLs were averaired in order to
secure all probable details of ex-
pense and bonier. 1 ne tiraw 011 111c
new bridge will work by electricity
and a ficure has been Quoted the
Northern Pacific by the Portland
General Electric Company as to the
cost of sucn service.
One of the lines surveyed passes
directly through "the home of A. M.
Roberts and continues across ine
tract of laud now being tilled by a
Chinaman as a vegetable Harden.
The general trend of all these lines
is from tue wtuameiie uauic at a
point about 150 yards above where
the Columbia Slouch empties into
the river, north aud east across the
Cattoa property aud the site of the
great Weyerhauser lumber plant,
throuch tke woods bordering the
county road leading to the Ogden
place and crowing the roau close
to Mr. Ogden's gate: from there
the route runs direct to Vancouver
in the vicinity of the Simmons
property.
Thb continued activity without
doubt indicates that tke Northern
Pacific k actually in earnest regard
ing the building of this big bridge
and the fisal abandonment of the
forrv at Coble: and each step along
the work will be anxiously con
sidered by the residents of St.
Johns.
