"Why would not a stopover at The Dalles, as the junction point, be worthy of consideration of the people of this section of the state? We 'could estab lish at The Dalles an ' exhibit that would be quite as attractive as any cither anywhere, in fact, as we all know, the business men of The Dalles alreaily have a fine exhibit at the sta tion there."
