Members of Council and officers of
tho Southern Pacific Railway are mak

the needs of tho city and Is deter
mined to safeguard them; on the other

they are planning for and don't want
to spend any money needlessly In tho

their statement that the company con
templated spending some $18,000,000
In betterments and adding another
track to the Southern Paclflo aa fast
aa the Improvement csn be tsken up
snd completed. Pert of tbat expendi
ture embraces the double tracking of
the Hne through Oregon City. Within
the city conalderablo nil work will be
made and the trestle work at and near
Twelfth otreet Is psVt of the Improve
ment contemplated within this city.
The company recognises the needs
of tbe street at the point where the
railway crosses Twelfth street And
the offlclala of the road agree with
the representstlves of the city tnat
there should be but one span serosa
the street, and this of steel heavy
enough to carry any possible load. And
the company concedes that tho city
ahall have this.
But there Is the question aa to the
time. The improvements contemplst
ed will take two or three years at the
best, and If any considerable dlffloul
tlea arise It wlU mean one or two yoara
more. What the company wanta la
to put in a temporary overhead struc
ture, and as cheaply as will be oafe,
putting In the permanent overhead
work when the double track work Is
Instituted. To put In a steel truss
now, with It8 stone abutments, would
cost 135,000 to 850,000, and little If
any ot It would be practicable for use
'In tho finished roadway. Tbe com
pany does not want to g;o to this ex-
PnBe- . I.W
To show the company a good faltn
in the matter the engineers agree to
study the situation locally and then
submit prints and other data showing
what the company Intends at the final
completion of the Improvement, with
like data of the proposed temporary
structure, with assurance that the
compsny will do ss It shows in Its
submitted plsns. This It asks Council
to accept for the present. ;
Certain members of Council are de
sirous thst the company sot a date at
which these Improvements shall do
completed. It la also the desire of
Council thst tho fscts sot out In the
company's data be explicit and In the
naiure of a pledge or agreement To
this th officials have agreed and the
work Is to be taken up and aubmltted
to Council at tho earliest convenience
of the company. ' .
It Is well known to Council and tho
cltlaens of this city thst the oompsny
I. making surveys In this section of

When the company sends its aai

and what It proposes for tbe tempo
rary shift, with the time limn use
tbo company seeks to have pot Into
the agreement, then Council will take
tho matter no and give a aennue
answer. Council Is Inclined to be fair
with th company, and wnen tne citi
zens of the city are made familiar with
th. whole nlan- there is not likely to
ha any nroteet against Council doing
what Is right and fair In the matter.
And If the company is resiiy in earn

there will be ao trouble In securing.
any and all concessions toai are wun-
