A FEASIBLE PROJECT.
The Chkoxiclk notes with satis
faction that the business men of The
Dulles arc taking an increasing inter
est in matters connected w ith the
welfare of the citj-. Frequent dis
cussions are heard at the Commercial
Clnb and elsewhere over plans to aid
the material interests of The Dalles,
and tb2 result of thisjiwakening can
not help, in the course of time, from
being beneficial.
One of the topics most frequently
under dissussion is the influence
which the new railroad from Biggs
into Sherman county will have upon
The Dalles. While it is generally
believed that the damage done to the
trailing interests of this city will not
be so great as some alarmists"predict,
3'et it is conceded that substantial
injury will result.
There seems but little doubt now
that the road will he continued on
through Moro, Grass Valle, and tap
the wool territory farther to the
south. It has been the intention of
the management of the Columbia
Southern to project their line as far
as funds will permit, and, in all prob
abilit', a great deal will be done the
present season.
Just what effect this extension will
have upon The Dalles ma' be a mat
ter of difference, but all will agree
that it will in no wise add to its com
mercial advancement unless this
place be made the terminal point in
stead of Biggs.
The project, which has been pro-1
posed and talked about some, of i
building a road from The Dalles up
to Deschutes, then probabty up the
Fulton canyon into Sherman county,
connecting with the Columbia South
ern at Moro or some convenient
point, seems to be a meritorious one.
If this read were built, and a traffic
arrangement made with the Colum
bia Southern whereby .he wool
shipped from interior points should
come by the new railroad to The
Dalles, instead of going to Bigcs.
then this city would be in a position
to hold the trade of the great inter
ior country, which it now possesses.
It is just as well to take stock once
in a while and see where we stand.
There seems to be a well-founded
opiuion that the present season will
see the Oregon Pacific pushing across
the Cascade mountains and tapping
the rich stock country of the central
part of Eastern Oregon. Should this
he done and r.o way be provided
for bringing this trade to the Colum
bia river other than by wagon roads,
it is unquestioned but that The Dalies
will suffer severely in her commercial
interests.
But if the Columbia Southern were
built to Prineville, or to some point
where the traflic of that section could
be obtained, and then a line built
from The Dalles to some point in
Sherman county connected with the
former read, The Dalles would be in
a position to fear no competitors.
This plan has the commendation
of some of our shrewdest business
men, who are willing to place their
inlluence and money behind it. What
is needed ' more than anything else
is spirited action. If the thing is
worth doing, it is worth doing nt
once. It would not take much capi
tal, and the returns would be sure.
The Columbia Southern was built
under circumstances enough to dis
courage most men, yet the under
taking was successfully completed.
We trust this matter will be per
sistently agitated among our business
men, and Tin: Cjiiioniclb will do it?
share. In this, connection, we note
nn excellent article on this subject in
the Times Mountaineer, the spirit of
which we henrtilj indorse.

Every industrial icport shows con
tinued improvement m all lines of
trade. Jo better argument is need- .
ed than statements like the following ;
from a non-partisan commercial
journal: . '
''The industrial situation is satis-,
factory. Extensive strikes have
taken place in the New England cot-
' ton industry against a reduction of
wages; but the consequent curtail-j
ment of production is benefiting j
manufacturers, and there is little'
anxiety over the future. Other in
dustries are well employed. The j
outlook for the iron trade continues
hopeful. Wheat agaiu passed the,
dollar mark, touching 1.0-1, and ex- J
ports present and prospective are
ceedingly heavy. Last week 4,
000.000 bushels were shipped from
American ports, compared with less
than 1,000,000 bushels same week
last year, The visible supply of
wheal in this country is 37,800.000
