railroad it tutor way from Kigiu, in
t hi heart of the Uruiule Konde val

sinti'it'j to assemble fortes of work
men immediately and riihh the work
Willi all possible speed. It is ex
pected that the. Hue will he ,u oper
ation Into Joseph within the earning
three months.
The line into the mountains of
the Wallowa country wa,s stunted
over two years ago, but owing to the
difficulties of construction and the
fact that little could be done in win
ter, together with the recent finan
cial stringency, the work has been
delayed from time to time until the
people of the section to he opened
up despaired of ever realizing any
benefits from the projected line.
The road is hard to build and Is ex
pensive, much of the grade having
to be constructed across mountains.
Swift streams along the route that
rise suddenly, washing out the grade
at ready built, hnvo added to the dif
ficulties encountered by the enj;l
