The engineers have found route that will give them a t per cent grais, ana inunra ia iuku wina its most difficult reaches between Port land and (Un VranctBcO. which will effect a, lessening of the running time - ef overland trains by about three hours. The changes of the route occur between .". Medford and the Klamath river. The preeent grade Is 2.SS per cent. - . Th a mw Hint, m.lr.a 4 nnaslhls to .'.-; eliminate the many loops by. which the Southern Paclfle now reaches the sum mi at the fltaklvaua. It will enable the . road to get through the summit with a tunnel two mllea long, while to secure ,' an equally easy grade by the present . route it would be necessary to tunnel ; four miles. ' . ; "' ' ' . JTew Tnnael ytopueea. f The proposed new tunnel is to be nn der the southeast' spur of Ashland butte, and nearly 1,000 feet below the crest of the ridge. From the summit ' the- road would run by Wagner creek divide, on easy grades, and intersect the present line of the Southern Pacific at a point between Tallant and Phoenix. The new route lies through a magnifi cent body of Pine timber, and tt Is said great development of sawmill Interests at and southwest of Medford would fol low Its construction. It would also lead to the construction of a branch line into the extensive copper country to which Dr. J. F. Reddy and others are now giving attention. Open Slew ttisMots. ' .'- There are known to be Immense clnna- bar depoelta In the regions of the north ern California line, not far from the pro posed route, and these would also be tapped. The opening of these rich dis tricts and the construction of the Med ford A- Crater Lake road into the great sugar pin belt on upper Rogue river will, it is said, make Medford one of the principal cities of western Oregon, and one of the leading lumber markets. : It is reported at Medford that the ' Southern Paclflo has secured an option on 100 acres of land north of that place for roundhouse and division point facili ties, and that Included in its plana is a pipe line from Butte creek to Medford by which an ample supply of pure moun- tain water may -be secured. The city council of Medford has been approached .for a franchise and 'contract to supply the city .with water, which is a public convenience much desired by cltlsens, as the present city water ia not used for drinking purposes. It is said that Presi dent Bsrnum, of the Medford Jack sonville road. Is trying to get sn option from the Southern Psclflo on the old line between Medford and Ashland.
