Mr. Lytla la viewed as a man of pe- euliar resources. His insight into the latent .wealth of the state has the at test of conviction, and conviction with him Is synonymous with action. It is ot a aubjeot for wondar that the man who sprang from a small-salaried post tion to the rank of men who do big things should be viewed by the state with peculiar interest at this time when there ia a much of hope and expect ancy in the atmosphere. In III the railroad builder came to the state of Oregon, at the age of 21, He brought with him a general exoerl- enee in railroad work throughout Penn sylvania, where progress "stamped the big transportation Institutions. - Hs had served as telegraph operator, and latef as ticket agent In June, 1119, he se cured employment with the O. R. eV N. ayatem as ticket agent During the time of his service in thla capacity, he waa stationed at Waitsbnrg, Hood River, Touohet and 'The Dalles. It raa while at the latter point checking up freight receipts rrom the great interior, that he became imbued with the idea that the country beyond was entitled te a rail way. There was such strength in his conviction that .be was -willing to quit his - salaried position, practically "broke," and launch upon the venture of building a railway into the track leas parts of Oregon. Between lilt and 1901, when he resigned as president and manager -.of the v Una, the - Columbia a H. N.

No Other has grieved so much over . the progress of a railway rom the south, and the prospeet of Baa Francisco draw ing a rich young commerce from Port land a very doors.
