QF THE FORESTS
A Walia Waila-Wallul«
Railroad
The farmers anti business men ot
Walla Walla county, according to
.1 recent news dispatch, are planning
to build a railroad between Walla
Walla and Wallula, on the Columbia
river, by next spring
The farmers
are taking the lead.
They have a
cooperative union up there, at a re
cent meeting ot wlych plans for
this project were adopted.
It is
proposed that after the harvest am
fall seeding are over, several hun­
dred tampers shall turn to this
job with their teams and grade the
line. Right of way and a franchise
have already been secured,
Many
farmers up there are wealthy, and
w ilh other moderate capitalists can
supply the necessary funds, This
road would
yould occupy the route tra-
veisciRby
by the old P.aker
Baker railroad,
the first one built in that region, and
which helped to . make its builder
and owner very wealthy.
This seems likf an entirely feasi­
ble and thoroughly worthy enter
prise. This strip of railroad would
bring Walla Walla and all its rich
immediately surrounding country
into direct, close connei lion with the
Columbia river and the boats of the
Open river association that are to
be put thereon. l he farmers,could
■wn and opt r*l** this road and
practically fix their own freight
rates. At least they would get the
benefit of water transportation for
their products from Wallula to the
sea. So would merchants and their
customers for merchandise.
The
road could scarcely • fail to do a
large business, and to be a payirig
investment at low freight rates. It
would save and make for the peo­
ple up there millions, eventually,

be a good thing for farmer's and
