HERE ARE A FEW POINTERS ON .. . a.. f I i HOUGH new lit lome things and though just beginning to bbserve advantages - that other cities v ; farther east have ions enjoyed t Portland is not In the rear of the pro ,' cession when electric lines are consid ered. The term street railway does not -;,. well apply to the motor system of the city for the majority of the wealth in- , vested is in suburban territory and in opening up fields many miles, from the center of the city. In the matter of i equipment, power . developed, roadbed, speed and all the other details that make t the modern motor line, Portland lias nothing to fear from comparison with : any city of twice her size in the coun ; try. When compared with cities of her ' clans in the Middlewest and South. i Portland Is far .ahead !n this respectand J various local companies are Just lntro J ducing hets to a pew era of motor ra II ' way expansion that bids fair to place her well up in the1 class of cities that have big . motor systems through adjoining states. . , The Oregon Water' Power company though operating several local lines has devoted Itself chiefly to opening up new ' fields and finding in the vicinity of Port iapd a region not touched by railroads , and rich . in all.' natural resources has , chiefly confined itself to building modern lines with fast through cars Into new -territory. : --',7 - ; During the last year tills road has i built a pretentious extension Into the i Hood River territory and at present has a line 37 miles in length operating be tween Portland and Cazadero. This new line Is In every respect the equal of any 1 steam line operated in the Bast. Sixty , pound rails have been placed, and huge motor cars are in operation that run at express speed and bear scores of people every load. The business between Port land and Cazadero has Jumped up by 1 long leaps in the few months the line r has- operated -and-already themanage- ment is discovering that the debit and . credit sides of the ledger are soon going to balance. ' Besides the considerable passenger business, which will Increase greatly -..next summer when the popular resort near the end of the line opens, the new ; road has opened a very fertile agricul tural section that will afford homes for market gardeners, later for suburbanites and country, places for the people with " . wealth. " : . A number jof sawmills are beginning to ; cut Into the standing timber along the line and the production of ties, logs and . piles will Increase steadily for some years to come. Besides this line with its vast, possibilities, the Oregon Water .Power company has. operated a. line to , Oregon . City that has long ; been the scenic, trip of the city visitors, has a newly improved line to Mt. Tabor with 20 minute service to Mt. Scott and a dou ble track line to-flellwood. titer additional track being laid the past summer. . The Portland 'Rail way 'company under its reorganised management has steadily Improved Its service and locally 1s doing more building than any other company. , ift combines the suburban policy of the Ore-fon Water Power and the strictly - city policy of the City & Suburban com panies, having a line of ears and ferry to Vancouver, Wash., and lines to every ' Important section of the city. . Curing the year now closing this com pany has. been unusually active in con struction work and has begun four new , branch lines, these being the Vernon. Holladay avenue, Russell street and Portland Heights. ' The Vernon line has been In operation for some months and is aiding in settling up the new East Bide .addition and also in relieving the congestion In the Union avenue traffic.

Chnrcnts Teeing Parks." v Thirty different denominations, are represented among the religious instltu - tiont,,. Almost every religion under the way to Irvington and vicinity has brought quick transit service near-the doors of hundreds of ; East Side people "and has also farther aided: quick handling of Union-avenue crowds. The Union-avenue question, with the remarkable growth of this main -East Side street and the opening and build lng up of many additions in which more. than 1.000 'dwellings were constructed the present year,, has troubled the Port-, land Railroad company and It has strug gled manfully to solve this .problem, with flattering success. Up to July of this year there were only- two lines operating between Port land and Highland on Union avenue; now there are three, and-a fourth aids in keeping local traffic off of through cars. The company recently relieved the crowded condition of Vancouver cars by cutting from their schedule all stops be tween East Burnslde and Mechanics, and eventually Vancouver people alone will be served by this line, all local traffic being left to other lines. Besides constructing nine miles of new road the past season, the company has greatly improved local roadbeds and has on its Washington-street lines heavier rails than those of transcontinental rail roads, the rails weighing 81 pounds to the foot. . The Portland Railway company owns Its car shops and constructs alt its rolling-stock. During the. year .88 new cars have been built in these shops and a number have been remodeled.: The com pany as far as possible uses Oregon ma terial in its carbulldlng, and has turned our some of the finest cars in the city. The. new cars are generally of the double-truck extra-length high-gear class. , .1. - One of the most spectacular pieces of railroad-building in the West will be the construction by this, company of its new. Portland heights line that will dis place the 'present cable service, the last tn "-the-elty. The-newTlne will, follow the uounds of the City Park and will cross a bridge 65 feet high and 475 feet in length, "between two high hills. When completed the line .will atford passen gers a view of. the city and the Colum bia valley unsurpassed. The City & Suburban company remains the chief single factor in moving the city crowds to all suburbs. . With lines in every direction and connections at every half-mile point, with branch lines, the company has the local field thorough ly cdvered.- The "City Si Suburban has tn operation 74 miles of track and oper ates a suburban line to f St Johns in addition to Its local work. During the year this company has double-tracked many of Its local lines and has con structed a line to St. Johns from North hill. This company builds Its own cars In the large shops at Twenty-fourth and Savler streets, and during the year has built 20 standard closed cars, 16 standard dpen cars and 12 bench open cars. The company has also built re cently a new barn to accommodate 30 cars at Twenty-eighth and East Ankeny streets. . . The City & Suburban did but little construction work the past season, since it already had double the local track age of any oiher line and did not find . the necessity confronting. Itfr speedy betterments. The company has been preparing to enter the outside field and to begin the building of roads similar to the Oresham line of the' O. W. P. and the road ' to Hillsboro was confi dently numbered as the -first step of the company into this new field. No work, however, has been done on this line as yet, and though there Is no promise of Immediate construction, the officials of the company promise that the line will eventually be built.'
