Mr. Talbot's letter is as follows: I Portland, Or., April I. lyoK. I Mr. Charles I'isher Publisher Guard. Kngene, Or. j My Dear Sir: 1 am in receipt of ygur letter of March 31 si in quiring as to our plans to build into tithe Upper Willamette valley j and to Kngene. Our articles of incorporation cover the territory to. Kngene and we are making plans to carry out the extension to your city as rapidly as possible. We have all material on hand and are now formulating our plans to commence at once our llillsboro ex tension from Garden Home and will have the line in operation in the fall. Our next work will commence at Salem south to Albany, and later on to Kngene. At just what time we will get there I cannot say, as it will be our policy to build link by link, and not undertake to try to cover too much territory at once; in other words, as soon as the line is ready for operation into Albany we will at once proceed with the Kngene extension. However, if money matters comitate to im prove we undoubtedly will push our line into l'.tigene as early as pos sible. I can say this much that we are going to Kngene with our rails and will prosecute the work as fast as possible. llis not our pol icy to go into the field and cover a large amount of territory w ithout being ready to back it up immediately with turning the drt. When we are ready to build promptly our Kngene line we will then bring the matter up before the Kngene people and then only ask for a fran chises or terminals needed for the actual operation of the property. and from all indications J am sure that the people of Kngene will give us a pleasant reception. To sum the matter up, we do not want to build paper railroads. There have heen a great many articles published in the papers throughout the valley that our company was connected with the so called Welch enterprises. I wish to advise you that we are not in any way connected with them and what action we take through this territory will be entirely independent of theirs. P.efore the summer is over we should know positively sit what time we should reach Kn gene, and assure you that I will be very glad, when a definite time is determined by our syndicate, to advise you, as we have nothing to cover ii) in any of our enterprises. I have planned a trip to Kngene for some time past, but have been unable to get away, but hope to get to vour city some time the early part of this month, as I desire to look over the situation in and aboy.t the city.
