ii mom Hrriman People Reveal Intentiotr of Extcnd- ing Their Washington' Line to TJiat City ' .,L.toTap the Great Northern's Terminal: . A legal fight t determine th right of the Harrlman lines to condemn round for. a right of way In- Kalama for the proposed extension of the South ern Pacific and Union Paciflo railroad to the sound has brought out the fact that the HarrUnan people will push their Waahlngton road on to Everett, tapping- the Oreat Northern's lermlnaJ there as well as those of the Northern Paciflo at Taconie and Seattle. In . the action to condemn ground at Kalama the court decided In favor of the Har rlman roads. The suit' was "brought before-Judge MoCredle In the superior court, and the - defendants war .Pred a Catltn. William Welst, Marlon Smith. James P. Reyn olds, Olof Oleon,. George P. Pavelt, Mrs. m. R. ' Chapman and others, property owsers at. Kalama, who disputed the railroad . company's right to condemn, . and' Set" up a claim that , the lands sought were not to be devoted to a pub llo us. The Northern Pacific which operates the present railroad and ferry at Kalama. - injected Its attorneys Into the fight and made a determined effort to block' the Harrlman program. The court decreed that It .was neces sary to condemn the lands In question, and that the' contemplated us of the land by the railroad company was really a public- use. As soon as decrees are signed the court will call a Jury to try the Question of damages to the landown er. . George . Shepherd of Portland, Oeorg R. Tennant of Seattle and Judge ii. S. Elliott of Chehalls appeared for th Harrlman companies, and their wit nesses were Secretary Lltsenberg of the Washington' V Oregon Railroad com pany, - and ' Engineers- Cummins and Scurry. Judge A. L Miller of Vancou ver represented the Northern Pacific. It la the Intention Of the Northern Pa cific to fight every foot of the advance of the Harrlman road from Portland to the sound. - The old ITnlon Paclflo right of way from Veneouver to Olympla promises to be a leading' factor In the railroad scramble (for advantage through the country between Portland and the -sound. The Northern Pacific has se cured" undisputed ' title to this right of way, and will. It Is sald build an eleo trlo railway if necessary to carry on a successful ftght for the traffic It ia still a question whether this com pan j baa ' announced" an electric road for the pu rpos M. harrying the Harrlman extension or to keep out of the field other capitalists who - have been considering .the construction of an electrto railway between the Oregon me tropolis and Tacoina, In any event, there promises to be active railway com petition between - these two points, and the certainty -of this Is best shown by the Northern Pacific's determined oppo sition to the right-of-way work of the agent of th Oregon . t Washington Railroad company, the nam under which1 th Harrlman people ar proceed ing. .

' Arleta, Lenta, Anabel and th other towns along th Mount Scott car line have Inaugurated a campaign wlth-tb double purpose of having their atreets lighted and equipping with fir appara tus the volunteer brigade organised for that district some . weeks ago. It la proposed to ha v about on dosen arc lights placed at th most needed point along the line of th street railway from Anabel to Lenta, with perhaps as mahy more swung , at street Intersec tions a block or. tw distant from tb car Una .-'.;!.,' A Urge arc light already hang In front of th -Douglas grocery stor at Kara Park. It la proposed to have on at each of the following points: Bhaughnessy store, Myrtle. Stewart. Laurel wood, Arleta. Kern Park, HaseU wood, Millard avenue, Nashville, Tre mont. Wood mere, Oray's Crossing and Lents.' These light - would not, ' of course." light all th Intervening space, but th people would soon learn them and they would serve as. beacon lights t th belated traveler. It Is said that.th coat, of th highest candle-power are light Is but t cents per hour. Th people of th Mount Scott, district say that nolle nrotactlon at th present time is too. expensive to b put In fore over so large a territory, and that th next best thing for them to do is to light their principal highways. The Mount . Scott Improvement club will be asked to-consider th Jtght auaa- tlon at It next meeting and If possible devise some means whereby th sugges tion may be carried out. The burning" of Norman Draper's noma at Lenta Wednesday morning haa aroused th people to th necessity- of providing the district with some sor of nr protection. Seven residences -have been barned to th ground In th Mount soott district In th past few months, all of which could have bean partly saved had even a Wicket brigade been organised. "A number of th property Owner there met som wseka ago and formed a volunteer fir company, which It Is now proposed to equip with a chemical engine and a hose reel. , It Is argued that no, two Improvements could be mad that would appeal more to tn nom seeking public than street light and a well-equipped volunteer fir department. Th dlstrlot around Lents bears no trace now of th d tructlv forest fir that swept over th wnoi eastern part of tb county four years ago. Homes and barns bav been rebuilt and fences replaced. In many Instances whole crop of grain and hay went up In flame' and amok, but this year 'the farmer out there ar harvest ing the biggest crop In years. .Th little two-room sohoolhoua that was burned at Lents has been reolaoed by a 11-room building, on of th hand somest in th county. At th time of th great forest fire hundreds were left in destitution and Portland was called upon to- supply them with their imme diate needs. Seed for th following year's crop was advanced, and money furnished to rebuild th deatroved homes. But all this has bsen changed.
