CANADIAN PACIFIT?
SHOWS BIG INCREASE
In the face of the mechanics' strike
and the business quiet the monthly
statement of the Portland office of tho
Canadian Pacific for the August just
comlng-to a close will show an Increase
of 20 per cent over the same month In
1907. The present month will be the
largest in the history of the Portland
office of the Canadian Pacific.
Although the fact that the sale dates
for eastern excursions do not extend
Into September would explain a slight
increase in business under normal con
ditions, the 20 per cent increase can
only mean, to the minds of the Cana
dian Pacific officials, that prosperity Is
on the wing again and that, tile finan
cial depression is over.
It is claimed by the local representa
tives of the Canadian Pacific that the
strike has not injured their business in
any way, and that it is practically won
by the railroad company. The train re
ports on C. P. R. ocean-to-ocean trains
received dally in this city show that the
trains have not been over four hours
late reaching Vancouver, while the ma
jority have been in on time. They
claim that the union car builders have
been almost entirely replaced by non
union men.
