That is what this great county has needed for many years a rail
road. It certainly looks now as if this reed would be partially satis
fied this summer, by the completion of the Elgin-Joseph extension of
ineu. ac in. in an mtetview at Portland Friday, General Mana
ger O'Brien, who had returned from a trip over the lines, said work
had been resumed on all new construction except the Joseph extension
and he was expecting oidors within a few days to begin that.
The completion of the O. R, & N. to Joseph will' but emphasize
the need of the not th end for a railroad, as stated by the Journal.
And it is not stretching the truth to say that need will be satisfied
within a very few years at least. A resume of the present situation
gives assurance of that.
In the first place thre are the rumors of electric lines from Walla
Walla or Lcwiston or both. Tie Oregon and Washington Traction
company at the f irini r city, ,,no'(.f whose announced purposes was to
build a line into Wallowa count I, has recently merged with the Col
umbia & Waiht Walla which hm v.duablo rights aud franchises' and
proposes to build from Daytou .! to Wallula. The merger makes a
strong company, and while its real plans are kept secret, it is known
that, Btirveys have been made, presumably by this company, over the
Blue Mountains, down the Wenahii to its mouth and down the Grande
Runde to LewiBton.
These surveys are also alleged to have been made in the interest of

people of this county, or at least those sections directly interested, to
build a road from Enterprise to the Grande Ronde river in the north
end. as a feeder to the O R & N. At first thoueht this seems M.
undertaking, but that is principally due to its unfamiliarity.
Communities no more thickly populated and with not near the
natural resources of this have built such roads. ! Read the story of
how Dufur and Condon sot their railroads Ti, in;

an electrio road 28 miles long being built principally by the farmers
who live within 10 miles of the route. They argued the road would
increase the value of their land from $10 to $23 au acre, besides the
increased value of their crops. There is onlvone town r.n th i?n

bridges to build across creeks, besides a very heavy grade through the

There is little doubt the O. R. & N wtwiW give assistance to such
a feeder just as it did to the Condon and Dulur projects. The O R &

A c'tizen of Portland has re
ceived the following letter from A.
G. Harrisou, secretary of the board
of ' trade of Edmonton, Alberta,
which in view of the present dis
cussion on the subject of taxation
in Oregon may be of interest:
"The city of Edmonton, Alberta,
Canada, does not tax the improve
ments made on property therein.
In other words, unimproved prop
erty pays the same tax as improved
property. The tax rate this vear
is 13 1 A mills on the dollar.
That tl U method has Iwen of ben
efit to this city, 1 think the follow
ing statistics will prove:
