future; for Portland. Hs believes : the
Hose City will be one of - the largest
cities In the United States. Mr. iloli
! ler has been here three days on a visit
and plans to leave for his home t. In
, Omaha tomorrow morning.
.''Portland certainly Is making frapid
' progress," said Mr, Mohler this morn
1 lng. ."Saturday 1 was duck hunting,
but yesterday and this morning I had
., i time to look over" the etty a. little. I am
4 certainly pleasantly surprised with the
, t, development since I was a citizen here
some, years ago. tH . -'v-;
i "I'll never forget Portland or Its peo
' plet . A person can make no mistake
; in coming to Portland and ths people
'? her make - no mistake in remaining.
k Portland ij" city with 'a J brilliant fu-
. ture. Nothing can prevent It. j ,
i In speaking of the building of an cast
' and west line from Vale, Or., to a point
on' the Deschutes river line, Mr. Mohler
& stated - that while i such- a line would
I Ion Paolflo as a part of the Oregon
, Short- Line, (he matter would be In

f through the Malheur canyon and across
the vast areas of Open country In the
central 'part of the state will throw
open for.: settlement hundreds of thou

ASSERT 0 AT OWNERS
VIOLATING BRIDGE RULE
j " S'A fw ; river boat ownrs are blamed.
by the coifnty court of breaking Into the
closed period for : draw bridges. . A
tabulation kept of Ihe time the draws
are open during the period which they
are-' supposed tow remain closed ' shows
that some of the boatmen start down
the river five minutes before the closing
period begins. This trouble Is more
frequent in the evening than In the
morning, it is said.
One bridge tender baa reported that
two boats ' have oeen watched, and
everything Indicates the captains of the
crafts waited in order Jo start through
the bridges as the closing period be
gins. The unanimous report from the
bridge tenders is that the boats making
such a practice go through the draws
as slowly as possible.
The bridge tenders are' compelled by
law to open a bridge for a boat that
reached It five minutes .before the clos
ing period. When such boat starts down
stream, all other bridges must open for
It, regardless of lh closed period.

' (Spaelil tft TU Journl.)
; Ontario. Or., Nov 20. Actual con
structlon on the Oregon Sc Eastern
railroad through the Malheur' canyon
will begin not later than spring. Is the
statement made by a prominent Harri
man railroad officials to a leading On
tario business man. The statement is
borne out by the dispatching- of a party
of 13 ; engineers for the .purpose of
making the final changes in the perms
nent survey through the7 70 mile Mai
heur canyon, the key to the great Ore
gon Inland empire. It is also author!
Uvsly stated that two more' crews of
surveyors will be sent into the canyon
to hasten the 'wrnv.--i tuiH.-i
- The Inclination . of Secretary of the
interior Fisher to favor the irrigation
enterprises ; where the rights of suoh
projects and railroad construction work
conflict Is supposed to be the cause
Of the present activity of the Harrlman
people, and the visit of President IjOv
ett and other prominent Harrimiaa off!
oials to Ontario, 'Vale anL Emmett ths
st weeK-nr supposed to be in connec
tion with the right of way" of the pro
posed lines through ths- Malheur and
Payette river canyons. .
The time' limit of the Oregon & East
era right of way through the Malheur
canyon will, soon expire and as the
government holds an Irrigation reser
voir-site near' the mouth of this can
yon it Is absolutely necessary for the
railroad to commence actual construe-
tlon in order to protect Its rights. The
company- has held the "right - of way
through the Malheur canyon tor 20
years by occasional surveys and -filing
Plats, but the activity of the govern
ment in protecting rights for irriga
tion reservoirs has made Unnecessary
for the railroad people to make a more
permanent move, and it looka as though
the connecting links of ths Oregon &
Eastern through the central part of
the state . from Ontario . to Coos Bay
will now be rushed to completion.

The gypsy evangelist said that to be
