But Mils of Bight of Way to Viola,
la Clackamas County.
Right of way from the city limits of
Portland to Viola, In Clackamas coun
ty, except a short stretch of a mile,
has been secured by the Portland &
Oregon City Railroad company and
construction began early this week ac
cording to President Stephen Carver
today.
"We have a small crew of men work
ing near Clackamas station now and
will add to this soon," he said. "With
in four months we expect to have 10
miles of line finished and ready for
operation between Clackamas and
Htone, our first townslte-.
"We have secured virtually all our
right of way to Viola save a small
strip that probably will have to bo
condemned. In securing this we found
llttls or no opposition. In fact, many
of the ranchers, recognizing the ad
vantages of a new line, gave us right
of way."
Viola is approximately 25 miles from
Portland. The proposed route of tho
electric road, which will be broad
gauge, runs from the North Bank
depot, down Flanders to Fourth, up
Fourth to Madison, across the Madison
street brtdg. through Sell wood. Mil
waukie, Clackamas, Stone, Logan to
Viola, the terminus. ' The Oregon City
branch of the line will Join the main
road near Clackamas.
The proposed route would extend In
to a rich portion of Clackamas county,
midway between the proposed Clacka
mas Southern and the P. R., L. & P.
company's Casadero line.
At the present time the company's
entrance Into Portland is blocked by a
referendum Invoked against the fran
chise granted last year by the city and
the matter is now being fought out in
the courts.
