READ IN THE FOLLOWING THE, STATEMENTS OF LOUIS W. HILL, PRESIDENT GREAT NORTHERN, AND WIL LIAM P. CLOUGH, CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE NORTHERN PACIFIC. ONE SPEAKS OF TONNAGE, THE OTHER REFERS TO PASSENGER TRAFFIC. WE THINK THESE STATEMENTS BY SUCH MEN SET THE STAMP OF APPROVAL UPON THE EXPECTED GROWTH OF FLAVEL. With Far Less Louis W. Hill, president of the Great Northern, standing on the ground at Flavel where the Hill terminals are now being built, said: "This is un doubtedly the place from which the grain shipments of the great Columbia River Basin will be made; you have the situation here unquestionably." FLAVEL, OREGON The Hub of the Columbia Harbor William P. Clough, chairman of the board of directors of the Northern Pacific, made the state ment that train schedules of the Great Northern, Northern Pacific and allied lines will be arranged throughout the Northwest so that passengers leaving Puget Sound, Spokane, the interior or Eugene in the morning will be able to reach FLAVEL by evening, there to embark on the great steamers of the Hill interests when they are put into operation and reach San Francisco the next evening. We decided that this district merited recognition and a quick and easy way to travel between here and San Francisco. t X 0 J J X bex a i iiiiiiiiniiiiniiiiiiii niriTiTi iiiiiniiiniiiimiiii iiiiiiimiiimiii u(97tOTfr-'"- , .nm.nu FREE FACTORY SITES WE WILL GIVE TO THE MAN WHO WILL ESTAB LISH PAY-ROLL INDUSTRIES A SITE FREE ADJOINING THE HELL DOCKS AND TER MINAL YARDS.
