TRAVEL TIDE SEEN A. M. Cleland Predicts Fair Tourist Season. FLOODS MAY HAVE EFFECT Interest of Eastern People In North west Declared as Keen as Ever and Prosperity of This Sec tion Provokes Comment. t..4v.i Viq virthvpst from the East and Middle West will be good thia year, but not exceedingly heavy, ...... a vr rM.ian1 creneml nuRseiiEer agent of the Northern Pacific, who was In Portland on business yesieraay. "While the Interest of Eastern people in the Pacific Coast country Is Just as ... tHinite Mr rieland. there are many contributing factors that will combine to hold tne uae 01 wesiwara travel far below what might be ex pected as a reasonable maximum. The recent floods In Ohio, 4 Indiana and other Middle Western States have had an adverse effect upon tourist busi- .i.. n...Ant venr. That rf ara ... - J w of the country always has been a fer tile territory for tne development. 01 tourist travel. A gTeat many people who ordinarily would come to the Coast this year are holding off until 1915. wnen they can visit the Northwest and the world's fair at San Francisco on the same trip. Local travel to sucn evenis i"c Rose Festival, the 8eattle Potlatch and other annual attractions will be as good as usual, and possibly better, says Mr. Cleland, because the Northwest has been unusually prosperous. "I have been over the entire terri tory from St. Paul to Portland," he ex plained, "and find conditions along our line satisfactory. Business seems to be good everywhere and mere are ex cellent Indications of & successful sea son for the farmers." Mr. Cleland consulted while here with l -n rimTitnn. assistant ereneral pas- senger agent, on the proposal to move , i a Vnrth.rn Paririri nassenger and ticket office away from Third and Mor rison streets to a point nearer tne present retail business center of the city. On account of contemplated lm nrovements to the property now occu pied, the office will be forced to move within a year. Mr. Cleland left last night for Seattle, where he will Join J. M. Hannaford, vice-president of the Northern Pacific, In charge of traffic. and J. G. Woodworth, traffic manager, who were in Portland earlier in the week. "The general passenger agents who visited Portland last Fall at the time they held. their convention on the Coast are still talking of the pleasant and enjoyable time they had here,' - he said. In appreciation of the accommoda tions provided them by the Northern Pacific, which carried them on two elaborate "special trains from St. Paul to Portland, the general passenger agents who constituted the party pre sented Mr. Cleland with a valuable gold watch.
