THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, WEDNESDAY EVEWO, AUGUST SI, 190i. 1 - PORTAGE ROAD TO BE BUILT SOON 3. 9. tjjal, attu ooimnoi WRI COMMISSION, SAYS THE UBJB nUi PSOBABLT BB ZB BTXIB jifOTBBB TEAB r J N Teal has returned from 8slM tally convinced that the porta road will be in operation In time to handle next years crops. HI. trip to thLpap ltal M for the purpose of meeting with the state portage road commission and considering the proposition f the Open River1 association, which Mr. Teal represents, and which la making vigor oub efforts looking to the early con struction of the line. 1 am well satisfied with the result of my trip." said Mr. Teal this morning, for It is virtually certain that the pro posal of the association will be accepted b. the commission. It was well con 1 Motored by the board, the contract was agreed upon practically, the few changes suggested being of such a nature asto push on the work, rather than hinder it. The board wants the road In operation wo as to handle ths crops next year and. personally. I can see no reason why It should not be completed by that time. I am so conflder la the matter that the executive committee of the Open River association has been called together for tomorrow to hear the report, receive rec ommendations and take final action. Preeldent Bmlth and Secretary Mariner are already hers." The situation as It -will doubtless work itself out means ths the state is to build aa much of the -rota as the ap propriation of the legislature will cover and aU cost over and above that Is to be met by the Open River aasoclatlon. The contract work and all other matters pertaining to the road will be under he auspices of tbe portage board, acting In the name of ths state. Aa soon as the papers are signed up. surveyors will be put into the field and as early as possible the board will ad vertise for bids on the construction contracts. AXiOBO TBB WATBBFKOBT.
