The ao-1 tlvltles of the O.'R. & 3k, Co, during the j summer, In rushing a survey on the Grand Ronde river, -from the mouthJ of tnht stream to Wallowa, Or., have caused rumor that the building of that line deals with the operations of the 'North Coast road in this field.

The 'North Coast Is completing the Survey on fho line to be built from Spokane to Lewiston, and lf a rumor now in circulation is based on faot the Grand Ronde road will con nect; here with the North Coast. Such a road would not only penetnate a dis trict not served by rail transportation. but would also give the Harrlman road direct route Into the Lewiston and Spokane territory by utilizing the Elgin branch which extends out of La Grande. The character of work done along the Grand Ronde seems to leave no doubt that early construction Is planned there. Many year ago the O. R. , & - N.
