THE 'MORNING OREGONIAN. TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1908. 11 RESUMPTION OP WORK ORDERED Extension of llwaco Road to Knapptoh Will Be Rushed to Completion. ORDERS GIVEN BY O'BRIEN Authority to Complete List Comes From llarriman Headquarters at Chicago Three Months May See tho Knd. ' Authority to proceed with the construc tion of the extension to the llwaco Rail road, now under way from llwaco to i Knappton, Vash., was received from Chicago yesterday by General Manager ' O'Brien, of the Harriman lines in this territory. 'Mr. O'Brien lias ordered im mediate resumption to the fullest extent that weather conditions will permit. The work has been placed in the hands of engineers and it is not known yet whether the company will perform the work Itself or let contracts. Just as soon as these matters are arranged, the con struction crews will be assembled and tha work rushed. When work was stopped on the Har riman projects in the territory last Fall, work was kept up on the tunnel at Fort Columbia, which is 900 feet long. Grad ing operations on the llwaco road were stopped. This tunnel has now been com pleted. The remainder of the work is well in hand but tha haste with which it can be rushed along will depend on the weather, for a large part of the grading to bo done Is through low, marshy ground where dry weather is needed for successful operations. "Wo will proceed with the rock work on tha new line first," said General Man ager O'Brien, "and close up the re mainder of the extension just as soon as possible. It should not take over 90 days to have the line ready for operation. Work remaining to be done will require the expenditure of $75,000." The object in extending the llwaco Railroad Is to afford a water connection at all stages of the tide. The line will handle the beach travel to the Washing ton resorts and instead of carrying beach visitors to llwaco, as formerly, they can be transferred from steamers to the trains at Knappton. This will mean a regular beach schedule out of Portland Instead of the irregular one formerly maintained to catch the tide at the proper stage to reach llwaco docks. Sternwheol steamers can touch at Knapp ton, while only propeller or sldewheel boats are allowed to cross the mouth of the river to reach llwaco. One by one the Harriman projects in this territory are being resumed and It Is expected that by the time Spring opens and favorable weather conditions are realized, practically all the con struction stopped last Fall will be taken up. It is understood that the change in the main line of the O. R. & N. between Troutdale and Bonneville, work on which was stopped, will be taken up again within tha next 30 days. The company . will spend about $.'1:0,000 more on this piece of track. - - WRITES OP NORTH BANK ROAD Appreciative Article by Portland Man in Engineering News. An engineer's appreciation of the splen did construction of the Spokane, Port land & Seattle Railway is contained In the current issua of the Engineering News. New York. The writer is W. P. Hardesty, of Portland, and his contribu tion is the leading article. He deals with the engineering difficulties presented in tho construction of the road. He tells of the details of the work at consider able length. The article is Illustrated with -views of the grade and of both portals of the Capo Horn tunnel. In summing up his observations on the work he says: "It Is believed that no other road in the United States, even when the condi tions for easy construction are much more favorable, has such light grades and curves for such a length as this one. The fact that there are no adverse grades at all between Kennewick and Vancouver . for westbound trains will allow trains of enormous weight to be hauled in this direction. The exceedingly rigid require ments and high standards used la con struction, applied to a country of the rugged character traversed by this road, have resulted In very costly work. No expense has been spared to make every thing of the best and the needs and mora rigid standards of the future in the rail way world have been anticipated for many years." Mr. Hardesty points out that the high price of labor and materials have resulted in a very expensive road. He says that lor miles at a stretch, the cost will . average over $100,v a mile and will some times reach $150,000. That the construction of the Spokane, Tortland & Seattle Railway is possibly the most important piece of railroad work carried out in the United States during 1907, Is the editorial opinion of the En glneering News, given in the same num ber. The editorial points out that the Hill line6 will be able to get away from the steep grades over the Cascade Moun tains on the Northern Pacific and Great Northern, the former crossing the range at an elevation of 2S27 feet, and the Great Northern climbing to an elevation of 33?0 feet, while each road has grades as steep as 2.2 per cent In its ascent of the moun tains. "In the entire distance of 220 miles alons? the valley of the Columbia," con tinues the editorial, "there is absolutely no rising grade against westbound traffic and for eastbound traffic the maximum grade Is only 0.2 per cent or lOVj feet per mile. The total rise in the 220 miles is only S24 feet. Notwithstanding that the line is compelled to follow the narrow valley of the river, maximum curvago has been reduced to 3 per cent. That such a road will permit enormous train loads and very low cost of hauling and will have great traffic capacity can be eeen at a glance." wiLii nrsn hillsboro road United Railways Only Waiting for Granting of New Franchise. Work will be commenced today by the United Railways on track-crossings at the corner of Fourth and Stark streets, where the trolley lne crosses the Southern Pacific's steam road, and upon the completion t of this crossing the Stark-street line, which forms tfte city link of the interurban project to Hillsboro, will have been finished. En gineering work on the , remainder of the Hillsboro division of the road is now going forward, and as soon as the Council will permit the United Rail ways the changes In the franchise in dicated some time ago, the Hillsboro line will be pushed to completion.' Materials for this road to tha value II PLENTY OF WATER ADVICE AND PRESCRIPTION BY EMINENT AUTHORITY. How to Make Splendid Remedy for Kidneys, Bladder and Rhenmatism. "The people here do not drink enough water to keep healthy," exclaimed a well-known authority. "The numerous cases of stomach trouble, kidney and bladder diseases and rheumatism are mainly due to the fact that the drink ing of water, nature's greatest medi cine, has been neglected. , Stop loading your system with patent medicines and cure-alls; but get on the water wagon. If you are really sick, why, of course, take the proper medi cines plain common vegetable treat ment, which will not shatter the nerves or ruin the stomach.". When requested for such a prescrip tion for the cure of rheumatism and kidney trouble the answer was: "You must make the kidneys do their work; they are the filters of the blood. They must be made to strain out of the blood the waste matter and acids that cause rheumatism; the urlna must be neu tralized so it will no longer ba a source of irritation to the bladder, and, most of all, you must keep these acids from forming in the stomach. This is the cause of stomach trouble and poor di gestion. For these conditions I would suggest the following prescription: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Mix by shaking well in bottle and tak6 in teaspoonful doses after each meal and at bedtime, but don't forget the water. Drink plenty and often. , , This valuable information and sim ple prescription should be posted up in each household and used at the first sign Jf an attack of rheumatism, back ache or urinary trouble, no matter how slicrht. of $30,000 are now stacked In the con struction yards awaiting the beginning of work. The company has three alter nate surveys over the hills west of the city. Tho section of track between the city limits and Mount Calvary, a dis tance of about four miles, is the most difficult to build on the Hillsboro road. In that stretch of track the road will rise 900 feet. When Spring opens -work will be started on this track, and by Fall It is expected to have these four miles of road completed. -As soon as the Hillsboro road is finished to Mount Calvary, It is ex pected to put the Stark-street line into operation. Contracts for tho grading and trestle-work outside of the city will be let by the company, and esti mates are now being prepared by the engineering forces of the United Rail ways. The company will do the track laying and will put up the overhead materials, as well as take care of the engineering work. There are a number of consideration that will govern the choice of route over the range of .hills west of the city, and the exact course the road will take has not yet been de termined. Work will alfio be begun this week on laying 2000 feet more of track on Macadam street, which will take the line into the manufacturing district of South Portland. With the completion of the crossing at Fourth and Stark streets, which is a very short Job, the United Railways will -have seven miles of track In tha city limits connected up and In first class condition. Most of this track Is among tha beet ever laid anywhere, being of the most substantial construc tion. During the Spring months before bitulithic pavement Is laid pn Stark street, a second track will be laid on that thoroughfare from Twelfth street to Third, . making a double track Una all the way out the Stark-street line. J. P. Elmer Visits Portland. J. P. .Elmer, general passenger agent for the Chicago Great Western, vaa in Portland yesterday, greeting railroad friends about the city. He resembles A. D. Charlton, assistant general freight agent for the Northern Pacific, in appearance, and while at Coronado recently Mr. Charlton was mistaken for Mr. Elmer. The latter says that pas senger ' business is even better on hie line than what it was last year, when If' was making new records, and he considers this is a good iadlcatlon as showing that the threatened panic of the past few months has been over come. . He will go on to Chicago by the Northern Pacific. DAni METEOROLOGICAL KEPORT. PORTLAND. Feb. 24. Maximum tem perature. 49 degrees; minimum, 40 degreea. River reading at 8 A.
