THE MORNING OREGONIA?, MONDAY, (XJTOBER 17, 1904. THREE ROUTES PROPOSED ELECTRIC ROAD TO TROUTDALE WOULD HAVE SOME CHOICE". Any of Projected Lines Would Ternv inate at Columbia RiverFarm ers Seem in Earnest. There are now thrfee routes proposed for an electric railway from Portland to Fairview and Troutdale from Cedarville, one the Oregon Water Power & Railway Company's Gresham line, two miles west of Gresham; an extension of the Monta villa branch of the City & Suburban Rail way Company by way of the Barr road, and an extension of -the Portland ' Rall--way Company from Woodlawn northeast to tho Columbia Eloush county road. The people of Falrvle-w and Troutdale say they are not much concerned which route Is selected. Any of the three lines would terminate at the Columbia River at Troutdale at the mouth of Sandy River, where a steam ferry may be operated on the Columbia River, connecting at La Camas and the rich district on the Washington side. It Is claimed that an electric railway be tween Portland and the terminus on the Columbia River would be ,a big paying proposition, provided a steam ferry be placed on the river. The ferry would carry all the teaming to Portland that now goes by way of Vancouver. Tho Pairview Push Club has appointed a committee to confer with the Oregon Water Power & Railway Company. P. A. Morris, of this company, went over the entire route from Cedarville to Trout dale, which is more than any other rail way manager had done before, and he eaid" he would put a steam ferry on the Columbia River if his company built the line. While this route would give the desired railway connection with Portland it would not develop the country between Pairview and Portland as such a railway along the Columbia Slough or "by way of Slontavilla. Lukewarm About Railroad. Over a year ago, at a railway meeting held in Fairview, many representatives from Columbia Slough -were present, but most of them were lukewarm about a railway that would want a right of way through their front gates, or some por tion of their farms. There is small hopes of the County Court giving any electric railway a franchise to build a line' on a prominent county road like the Colum bia Slough road. It was then proposed that the county road be widened to SO or 90 feet, taking strips from both sides for this purpose, and then the clectrjc railway could be built on one side without interfering with the public. While the matter was talked over nothing was done, and the project of bJilaing from Wood lawn has been sleeping, -until recently tho Columbia Slough people have awakened to the fact, that unless they do something they will lOBe electric railway connec tion with Portland, and a meeting has been called tit Fairview for next Friday. The route along Columbia Slough road would undoubtedly -pass through one of the richest countries anywhere, hear Portland. What tho farmers are pre pared to offer by way of Inducements will probably be developed at the coming meeting. The route by, way of Montavilla is the shortest direct route to Portland, and there would bo only about 10 or 12 miles of track to lay to -reach the Co lumbia River by way of Fairview and Troutdale., A vigorous effort is now be ing made to get an electric railway on one of these three routes mentioned. The New Road to Oregon City. C. F. Clark, one of the promoters of the new electric railway botween Oregon City and Portland, on the- East Side, said yesterday there was a constant flow of letters from the money centers of the East asking about the enterprise. One was written offering to finance the rail way on certain conditions. Another of fer comes from Portland to build the road outright provided that a certain subsidy per mile is raised. All sorts of inquiries have been received, and to all these answers have been sent. While no definite results have yet been secured out of the work that has been done, Mr. Clark feels highly encouraged over the prospects. Owing to tho unsettled affairs of the City & Suburban Railway Company and the Portland Railway Company, no answer as to whether the consolidated company will consider a proposition to build the road or not, has been received. Mr. Clark says that the farmers along the lino are organized to keep up the agitation until they get an electric rail way, even if it takes several years. Tho enterprise has attracted so much atten tion abroad that hopes are entertained that outside capital may bo induced to take hold. He says that railway men who have investigated the proposition have admitted that it would be a paying proposition, basing their judgment on tho resources of tho country through which lhe route runs. THINKS CITY SHOULD PAY COST Committee Reports Against Bridging Sullivan Gulch. The Sullivan Gulch bridge committee held a meeting yesterday afternoon in the office of Joseph. Buchtel, and after thorough consideratlsa decided that It would be impracticable to build elevated roadways or bridges across Sullivan Gulch under tho present plan of district assessments, and that the only feasible way to build bridges would be by -issuing bonds. i It was also the judgment of the com mittee that tho present elevated roadway on Union avenue, now closed to teams and used by the cars of the Portland Railway Company, could be made safe for the use of tho public for the expen diture of a sum not to exceed $1000. H. H. NodhalL chairman of tho mass meet ing and of the committee, presided. Jo seph Buchel reported that he had talked with C. X. Harbaugh, of the Oregon Real Estate Company, and he expressed tho conviction that the only right way to build such bridges as are needed across Sullivan Gulch was to issue bonds so that the whole city, which benefits from them, should pay for them. Mr. Har baugh, who represents perUaps 3000 lots in the district, said that he could not say whether the Oregon Real Estate Com pany would sign a petition for elevated roadways or not. Mr. Buchtel also spoke of the nncer taint .surrounding the plan of district assessments even if tho petitions should be sighed, and of the great cost of ad vertising, besides which Attorney New ion McCoy, who prepared tho petitions, had expressed a doubt whether they would be legal if carried out. It ap peared to him that it would bo wasto of time and effort to circulate the petitions for elevated roadways. This opinion was concurred in by all the members of lhe rommlttee. On motion tho secretary was authorized to lay the situation before the Executive Board, setting forth the great inconven ience the public is suffering through the closing of the Unlon-avenue. bridge, which hampers the Fire Department and divides tho Bast Side into two parts, and asking the Executive Board to repair this bridge so it can bo used -until a new structure is erected. By resolution also the committee de clared that In its Judgment all such bridges should be built by issuing bonds, and that the charter should be so amend ed at tho coming Legislature so that this ran be done. Tho committee Jias wrestled with the bridge -question 'for several weeks. When the committee undertook to raise some money to meet the . cost of circulating the petitions those Interested offered no encouragement. Welcome to Former Pastors. Rev. J. E. Snyder, formerly pastor of the Third Presbyterian Church, occupied the pulpit of that church yesterday, and was given a hearty welcome by the con gregation. Mr. Snyder was pastor of the Third Church for about two years, when he resigned to become an evangelist, and then was called back to Brownsville. At the Mlzpah Presbyterian Church Rev. W. T. Wardle, a former pastor, was present. At both the Third and Mizpah Churches new buildings have been put up since the pulpits were occupied by these ministers. Union Avenue May Revive. The new elevated roadway on Union avenue, between Belmont and East Madi son streets, is completed and thrown open to the public, and the remainder of the avenue south to Hawthorne avenue will soon be finished. Here tho surface Is simply regraveled. There is a revival of business on Union avenue that threatens the prestige that Grand avenue has held for many years. Teams have been driven from Grand to Union avenuo by the bad condition of tho roadway between East Stark and Pine streets, which is really dangerous, with no prospects of its being repaired. Union avenue lost its business years ago because the roadway became unsafe and trade was driven to Grand avenue. The situation now seems to have been reversed. New Pastor's First Sermons. Rev. T. B. Ford, D. D., the new pastor of the Sunnyside Methodist Episcopal Church, preached his first sermons yes terday morning and evening to large congregations. Mr. Ford received a hearty welcome, and expressed, his pleas ure in being called to serve the Sunny sldo Church. SITAEE STORIES ARE TRUE. Millions of Reptiles Infest 'Klamath Region, Played With by Children. Something over a year ago an article- was published in the Oregonlan. a sort of "fish story" about Klamath Lakes and the myriads of snakes re ported to swarm about their shores, at tributed to on5 "Bishop Barkley," a politician and preacher, well known in parts of this state. -. The truth of the etatements made were not vouched for, but it was promised that they would bo. investi gated and results reported, and the trend of the article was inclined to pre vent readers from accepting the state ments as gospel truth till the facts had been verified. Yesterday H. G. Grimes, an old-time settler of the Klamath region, who is in the city, called at The Oregonlan office and hunted up the writer of the snake story to ask if tho statements given had ever been attested. Ho was told that no one had ever offered to verify them, ,and said that he had called for that purpose. He said that the number of snakes had not been exaggerated in the least, for at the proper season in the spring thereworo millions of them and many were as thick as his wrist. They Were harmless, being a kind of water snake, and boys and even girls did not hesi tate to seize one four or five feet long and swing it around over their heads for" fun, but the snakes did not seem to derive any amusement from the pro ceeding. There are myriads of frogs in the lakes, and in the Spring, when the tadpoles hatch out, they appear to emigrate from one lake t3 another and tho snakes follow them. There are also vast schools of "suck ers," a fresh water fish, called "mullet" by some, which inhabit the Klamath Lakes, and in the Spring swarm up small streams, running into them in such vast numbers as to fairly choko them. The snakes also prey on these fish, which are too large to be swal lowed whole, but a snake will fasten to one and hold on like grim death till ho tires it out and then devour it at leisure, the same as a cat would. In the schools of these suckers many will be seen with wounds or spars on them, where they have been seized by snakes and have succeeded in breaking away from them. A few years ago some Eastfern show man or proprietor of a zoological garden had a thousand or so of these snakes caught and shipped to him, probably to be exhibited in his show or to be used by snake charmers, who probably passed them off for cobras or some other poisonous snake and won admiration for the fearless maner in which they handled the harmloss rep tiles. In regard to tho matter of hogs eat ing these snakes, and even being fat tened on them to be slaughtered and made into hams, bacon, etc., Mr. Grimes would not speak definitely. Ho was Inclined to think that' Bishop Berkley's statements on this point had been exaggerated by himself or some ono else. And while admitting that razorback hogs miglit eat snakes when hungry, he had never seen or heard of hogs being fa'ttencd on snakes. Ho says that as the country around the lakes Is settled up, the snakes, frogs and "suckers appear to beco'me le3s numerous, and thinks that in a few years the stories about them will have been forgotten. 'MAYOR COMES TO LEARN. L. F. Boyd, Head of Spokane's City Government, a Visitor. Mayor L. F. Boyd, of Spokane, is in the city to learn from tho administra tion of Mayor Williams, in order that ho may be able to return to his home and clean Tiouso a little, if perchance he finds anything hero that will. neces sitate such a move. Mr. Boyd Is In Portland for several reasons, and all of them are educational. He Is a man who was raised as a boy in i'oruana wnen the town reached no farther back from the river than Fourth street and now as a man at the head of a large and growing city, he comes back to the homo of his youth In search of information for the brightening and adornment of his own adopted, home. Spokane Is about to have a now city park and a zoo and hearing that Port land bad the best park and the largest zoo on the Coast, with the possible ex ception of San Francisco, Mayor Boyd decided tp Journey to this city to look It over. Ho will go out to the park today and look over the appointments of the menagerie, learn how the animals are handled and kept, and in fact learn the zoo business from first t6 the last. Mr. Boyd also wants to 'find out about bridge flooring, and will take a course from the City Engineer or who ever it is that knows how to put a floor on a bridge that will not wear out Spokane has several bridges and In the past has had a hard time to keep the floors in repair. The rumor reached that city that "Eortland had a way of paving its bridges across the river that made them last for many years, and the Mayor from the North will try to carry the secret homo with him when he returns in a couple of days. A little course in municipal reform is also blocked "out In tho mind of the Mayor, ,and today he will take the first lesson or ms post-graduate course from Mayor George H. Williams, the head pro fessor of the, department in the North west. "I think that Spokane is a pretty clean little town and Is as quiet and orderly as the average, if not more so." said Mayor Boyd last night at the Portland Hotel, "but I want to see If I can learn anytnmg oi interest to me in carrying on my administration, and so I have come to Portland. "One of the first public men remembered by me was George H. Williams, the Attorney-General of the United States, and I am sure that I will have an interesting taiK witn mm wnen x meet him tomor row- "I have closed open gambling in Bpo- rasx, xxtscxan, zm .

Mr. Boyd, "and there are but a couple of things that are yet to bo overcome, one of which Is the sa loon box, the other the box In the variety theater. When I have these closed the town will be on a par with, or in advance of, with any town In the country. "I do not think that It is a good policy to try to do things all at once. If you go too far with a reform you press public ssntlment and there is a reversion to the liberal Ideas and all that has been gained is lost. I think that Spokane is in a fairly good condition now and that the rest will come as a consequence of the education of tho sentiment of the public." Mr. Boyd will remain in Portland for a few days making his Investigations, when he will return to his home by way of Seattle and Tacoma. DAILY METEOROLOGICAL REPORT. PORTLAND, Or., Oct. 16.
