' ,.. - ..k iv hat the city asks. On the east aide tt is merely space for a pier much smaller than tnu railroad bar built,, getting ground free from the city. The buiu'm e- right of way that Ut talked about so much isn't worth a nickel to the railroad company. ' The aewef would be burled out of sight and interfere not in the slightest with the railroad's operation. The South Portland park need never -have been -.brought into the deal, : but its real worth Is just about $00 an acre, or one tenth' of what the railroad wants. I - base this . estimate of worth upon th,llroad company' own esti mate in paying taxes on' the tract. The East Portland boulevard is of uncertain " value, so much so that the railroad pto pie themselves haven't put a value on It , Absurdity la comparisons, "To me the contrast is" rathef rldlcu- lous. The railroad la asked for- Httle, rights worth hundreds of thousands of dollars from the city. ..The railroad company pyen urges very solemnly that "we should pay for Immunity to block U and Y on the west side, when only consequential damages are possible and that money cannot be collected for dam ages of this nature. , J; "I notice' a constant .tendency upon the part of the Harrlman interests to con fuse what the city asks of the O.-W. R. N. Co with the. right of way desired ; through the yards of the Northern Pa cific Terminal company. There should , be no such confusion. The city should; deal directly or Indirectly only with the ; terminal company. Let us look, then, at j what the city asks from the terminal through Ha yards. After the piers are built the trains can puff back and v. WW ..V.t WW ttl,fc.D (AO tlVClJ as they do now. There are no damages in fact. The terminal company owes It to Portland to give this right of way without a cent of cost By the terming company's own measurement they have been using 800,090 square feet of city property, valued at. 2 a Square foot, or $1,600,000, for many years, paying no rent and giving no consideration for the ' "" ' cy, ii it aesirea, couia seise thi tiftrrAWArT nrnnort q t n nM. v - - - j . n'lj aim - to get., it back the terminal comnnnv . wuum Buiuiy give a rooo many rights or j way..
