and the Santa Fe. -
Three pr four detached pieces of road
"have been taken Into the contlnuour"Br

y built In California by the Santa Fe and
' I- nmn hv the Southern Pacific. It
v.
la understood that an agreement pro

and that the. Southern Paclflo shall not
build Its coast line south of that boun-
dary, excepting for the use of the Joint

From Drain to Coos bay the' South
ern Paclflo has launched the plsn for
a new coast line. This road will be
pushed to completion under direction of
Chief Engineer Hood. The Myrtle Point
road purchased from the Spreckels peo
ple will help to continue the line south
ward. . will not continue all the way
to " Myrtle Point, as Indicated on the
maps, but will keep close to the ocean
and follow a water grade to Smith
river, where It will .probably connect
with a piece of road already operating
from i Smith's river to Crescent City.
This road is a logging road, owned - by
lumber t.lllmen who are operating on
Smith's, river. They have not yet dls
posed of. the line, but have offered to
sell It at cost to. any Company that
will build a continuous -coast line.
From Crescent City south to Big la
goon survey and rights of way were ac
quired some years ago- by A. B. Ham
mond, acting- as agent for the Southern
Pacific, which own the Oregon ft Eu
reka, a short road running from Big
Lagoon to Areata, "The Santa Fe. en
ters the game strongly at Areata. It
has a road operating from that point
to Eureka and southward to Pepper
wood, and owns all the water frontage
at Eureka, and the larger part of front
age .on Humboldt bay. ... .r
,: ' mica Bedwooa Traffic.
' From Fepperwood south to Sherwood,
about 0 miles. It baa made a survey and
acquired adjacent thereto what are said
to be the largest redwood holdings
owned by any railroad company on the
Pacific coast. .It has a large mill In
operation, and controls the output of
redwood lumber at Sherwood, the north-
em terminus of the Santa Fe's Cali
fornia ft Northwestern, tapping San
Francisco, where the lumber is trans
ferred to the Santa Fe's transcontinen
tal system.
. The Santa Fe by building this line
north to Pepperwood r will practically
control California coast business from
San Francisco to Eureka, From that
point north It win divide the business
with the Southern Pacific ; It la said
the Santa Fe directly hag set -aside
1 1 t.Gwft.e-for-carrytnsr-otrt-its-scheme
along the coast, and that the Southern
Paclflo has appropriated an amount suf
ficient to, complete construction from
Drain to the coast and. south to the
California, line.
"To give positive' home testimony In
every locality Is of Itself unanswerable
proof of merit; but when we add to this
the continued endorsement from people
who testified years ago no evidence can
oe stronger. A Portland citlsen grate
frflly acknowledges the good received
from Doan's Kidney Pills, and ' when
time aatested the cure we find the
same hearty endorsement,' with added
enthusiasm and continued praise. Cases
of this kind are plentiful in th work
of Doan's Kidney pills, and such a rec
ord Is unique in the annals of medicine.
George K. Parrlsh, musician of S72H
East Oak street, Portland, Oregon, says
"I Just as glndlyt endorse Doan's Kid
ney Pills today as I did three years ago.
Time baa proved - that file benefits
found were permanent.- and' this has
been very gratifying. ' Kidney complaint
made Its first appearancef in my case so
gradually that it was some time" be
fore I .paid any attention to It. A cold
settled In my back and Z began to suffer
from dull, heavy pains In the loins and
over the kidneys. It wag then that I
was Induced to try Doan's Kidney Pills
and, as stated above, was completely re
lieved and not a symptom baa reap
peared up to this time.". -.

the possible exception of an atmosphere

which was rapidly being regulated by

that the ore waa constantly Improving.

There will be no better transpor
tation facilities in Portland than
those that will be completed to Rose
City Park within a .few days. Al
though it was originally announced
that the car line would be ready by
June 1, it is now a fact that service'
to the foot of the hillwill be in full
force by May 15.
Many people who have withheld
the building of their homes, pending
the completion of the car line, have
announced their intention of com
mencing their homes at once.
" Service from the heart of the city
to vRose City Park
will require . oniy
15 minutes. Return- '
ing to the city this
time may be reduced , .
because of the de
cline. The car line
"will n$i along Sandy
Road, the straightest
and quickest route
from Rose City Park.
The fare will be only
5 cents."' ' , ,
Residents of New v .
York,, Chicago, St.
Louis or other large
eastern cities would -go
wild with delight
had they the street -car
facilities of Rose '
City Park. There is'
scarcely a desirable '
Suburb in Chicago
that can be reached by street car in
less than 30 minutes,' white mostof
the higher class locations are more
than anf hour's ride from down town.
' Rose. City Park is not only the
most favored by nature, but by the
street railroads as well It is an
ideal place to live, to build, to bring
up children and for every purpose
connected with real home life.
Del
Transportation need
worry nobody. ' Those
who live in the far dis
tant suburbs of " Port
land will tell you that
IS minutes downtown
is a Godsend. Street
cars will ' run on a
schedule of 15 minutes.
The first service , will
be an extension of the
Twenty - eighth Street
line. It is quite possi
ble that the inaugura
tion of street cars will
influence the prices of
the lots.-- It would be
extremely wise to buy
now ana ... particularly

statement made by Superintendent
Donaldson of the street-cleaning de

half of the blty'o springllng' wagons can
be used, owing to a scarcity of horses.
Nearly all of , the livery barns find It
impossible to add to their present sup
ply of teams, and horse buyers have sat
down discouraged over the prospects of
buying at reasonable prices. Even at
greatly Increased prices they find but
few draft animals for sale. ; 1 i
