EXTENDING ST. PAUL SYSTEM.
Proposition of (Irrat Intci-i-st to' the
NorthweHt.
Chicago, Nov. SO. For tho first
time authentic Information has been
given out concerning tho ptoposed
extension of the St Paul r-ulroail sys
tem to the Pacific coast. According to
the Information given out, tho St. Paul
railroud will establish terminals in
.Seattle and Tacoma and will touch
Helena, Spokane and Portland.
The main line of the Pacific coast
project will bo run wont by northwest,
starting from the terminus of one of
the present lines to Wallula, on the
Columbia river. Another line will
branch off from the mnln road, run
ning south to meet the western end of
the extension that Is now being con
structed to cover the southern terri
tory of the system.
The Pacific railroad, running from
Seattle to Wallula, was Incorporated
In the state of Washington in October
with an authorized capitalization of
1 3,000,000. The road is projected for
a distance of 250 miles. The presi
dent is H. R. Williams, who until re
cently was general manager of the St.
Paul. In the meantime the White
River Valley railroad has been previ
ously incorporated with J50.000.000
authorised stock, to build from Cham
berlain, 8. D., the present western
terminus of tho 8t Paul, to the west
ern boundary of Dakota, a distance of
200 miles, of which 40 miles has al
ready been completed. This is the line
which will be connected with the Pa
cific coast extension by a branch run
ning southward from the main line.

An electrio railroad from Boise to
Spokane, via Grangeville and Lewis
ton. This Is the proposition now re
ceiving the serious consideration of
capitalists who are not In the habit
of taking newspapers Into their con
fidence until after the plans are ma
tured to such an extent Chat publicity
can no longer be avoided.
Q. W. Thompson, the Lewlston
capitalist is In Boise today on his way
to Sun Francisco, says a special from
Boise. When seen by a Capital Newes
reporter at the Indanha this morning,
Mr. Thompson talked of the various
enterprises that were making rapid
progress In northern Idaho. Concern
ing railroad building, he said:
"I am on my way to San Francisco
to again take up the matter of build
Ing the Lewlston Southeastern electric
line to Grangeville. This business
was thought to bsve been settled
some six months ago. You will re
member that when E. Cowper
Thwalte was there, he entered into a
contract to commence the construc
tion work within SO days after the
necessary rights of wuy, franchise and
terminal grounds had been secured.
"These were obtained and people
thought that all that was necessary
was to notify him that they had done
their part. I was In tho Bay city
some weeks ago and called to see Mr.
uowper-rnwatte. He Informed me
that It wus necessary for him to have,
In order to flnanco the deal, some
thing more tangible In the way of
local assistance that the letters
which he possessed, and when I re
turned I took the matter up and with
others went to work to get the matter
In business shape.
"We have secured tho right of way
for the entire distance from Grange
ville to Lewlston, with ample terminal
facilities at those places, and the nec
essary franchises. In addition to this
the citizens along the line have sub
scribed for $400,000 of the stock of
the road, and have given good notes
for the payment of the stock. These
with the agreements for the right of
way, etc., are on deposit with the
bank, copies of which, and the escrow
agreements, I am taking with me to
San Francisco."
Franchise Again Vetoed.
Mayor Carlson of Olympla, has Just
vetoed for the second time, the fran
chise given by tho city council of that
place to the Sumner Automatic Tele
phone company. A strong petition
from business men was presented to
tho mayor asking for such action ow
ing to the fact that the sehvlce now
enjoyed from the present company Is
good and that tho second company In
the city will only double tho telephone
expanse of the entire city. There Is
no hopo of a franchise being secured.

A. Kunkel, the well known Imple
ment dealer, has Just returned from
an extended visit to Spokane, Elmlra
and other points In northern Washing

New York and Oregon Cousins Who
First Met , Yesterday. .
Some time ago a picture of the La

river before a steamboat had ever
ploughed the waters of the Columbia

Portland, Nov. 30. It Is definitely
announced that the Oregon Water
Power & Railway company will ex
tend Its road over the Cascades from
near Estacada and Into the Inland
empire, and eventually through Kla
math, Lake and Malheur counties, and
to a transcontinental connection.
Thin has probably been the plan ill
along, as the terminal facilities of the
company at Portlund, on the east side
of the Willamette river, are sufficient
for a transcontinental railroad. It
has been known for some time also,
that a line is contemplated from near
Estacada through eastern Clackamas
county to near Wilholt and on to
Rllverton and Salem. 1
Taken all In all the railroad devel
opment of Oregon for the immediate
and near future looks very promising.

At the council meeting last night
the street committee, to which the pe
tition for the macadamizing of Court
street had been referred, stated that
Its report was not ready. Consequent
ly no action was taken In the matter,
However, it is probable that a resolu
tion asking for the improvement will
be presented and adopted at the next
meeting.
Some discussion was also had re
garding the purchase of a roller, but
the general sentiment waa that thl
council should wait until the matter
of Improvement Is fully decided.
Councilman Ferguson waa delegat
ed to attend to the matter of secur
ing the county ballot boxes for use In
the city election next Monday.
Also, the matter of additional police
for that day was brought up by Mar
shal Coffman, but It was held that
special policemen would not be neces
sary at the different polling places.
However, the marshal has the power
to supply special deputies at any time
should he find such necessary.
A bill of $1100 was presented by C.
J. -Bllladeau for work of macadamiz
ing Franklin street. Of this the Bum
of $S28 was for the Improvement to
private property and $272 for work
done on the squares for the city. In
the macadamizing of the above street
Mr. Bllladeau and ex-Councilman Wal
ter Wells have been associated, though
the contract was in the former's name.
The salary list for November was
