Hut the cxorhituitt rales on teams, wag

The road to Oregon City on the east
fti luoftho Willamette is said to be
almost impassable. This route presents
a line lit'M for un electric or motor rail
way. A railway along the east bank of
tho Willamette to Oregon City would
pay from the start, as it would touch a
number of ibe thriving towns, including
Midway. Sollwood, Willnburg, Milwutikit
uud Clackamas. It is very probable
Hint a suburban railway will be extended
through these towns this year; at least
the project will be under way by the
close of the year, says the Oregonian.
The subject tukon up by the Oregonian
has long been a general topic of conver
sation among residents ot this place and
steps looking to its construction have
already been taken. The completion
mid operation of such a line is eagetly
looked foreward to by everyone.
