Louis W. Hill Interviewed
About This Section In Min
neapolis Railroad Plans
That the midwest is intently inter
ested In railroad building in Oregon
is attested by tho prominence the
newspapers thero are giving devel
opments in it. R. K. Booth yester
day received from a Minneapolis
moi.,1 n nniipr with the notation,
"Hurrah for Marshfleld" penciled on
the margin of a story telling ot l,ouis
Hill's return and the possibility of
the Hill lines building to Coos Bay.
Mr. Hill did not authorize any an
noucement of his plans, reiterating
the statement that he would not
mnt.-p nnv definite announcement un
til the last of April when he ana
his father will return toPortland.
The Minneapolis Journal says:
"Louis W. Hill, president of the
Great Northern road, wno is jubi
hack from California, will leave tlds
,(!, fnr n western trip. He will
be in Portland, Ore., about April 20,
and will announce at that time the
plans of the Hill lines for new rail
road construction in Oregon.
"James J. Hill expects to go west
at the same time. Nothing in pros
pect in the railroad building in the
United States has a greater geneuu
Interest in railroad and financial cir
cles than the work under way in Ore
gon. It is rumored on the Pacific
coast that tho Hill lines will cross
the state through Its center, from
east to west. Louis W. Hill declined
to discuss the report or to go into
details.
ini.nt Viroa weeks from now I
expect to announce to the Oregon
people what we propose to do," he
said. "When there recently, on tho
way' back from California, I said to
the business men of Portland uiai on
whatever we might decide to do wo
have no desire to keep them in the
dark, but that when I came back 1
would make a statement as to winn.
