La Grande, Or., Dec. 21. La Grande s
'railroad shops passed muster when thorr
oughly Inspected by Julius Kruttschnitt,
director of maintenance of the Harri
nvan systems, and therefore the highest
man in authority except Judge Lovett
that operates the vast Harriman con
tinental steel girdle. After a half hour's
inspection and scrutiny of all depart
ments, Mr. Kruttschnitt classified the
l,a Grande shops as the finest and most
up-to-dat'j small shops in the Pacific
northwestand he has 6een them all and
is king pin over, them all. '
Sir. Kruttschnitt'8 coming has been
expeettd for some time and when he
reached here Sunday the yards may have
been brushed, tip, a bit for the special
occasion, but the general workings of
the shops are always the same, and the
high compliment from the right bower
to the throne of Harrlman's systems is
not only an -asset to La Grande, but
complimentary to the local lieutenants
who keep the shops' in operations '
A galaxy -of. officials such as seldom
visits La Grande at one time, comprised
the Kruttschnitt party. - General Mana
ger J. P. O'Brien, who by the way, be
comes vice president and general mana
ger of the Oregon-Washington Railroad
& Navigation company after next . Sat?
urdayand then becomes one of the tri
umverata which will rule the Harrlman's
in the-' northwest; Assistant" General
MHnagers J. X. Stack.and "William Bol- j
