This rnil road loomed big then and there was in Eugene a tendeney to eonsider H of more importance than the present or future development of the South ern Pacific nt that time. In 11112 owing to a number of economic causes there was a general slackening of business and the Oregon Electric did not meet the optimistic hopes of those who bad forecast a genernl rise in husiness conditions and popu lation ns a result of the construc tion. "Later the plan of construction of the so-called Natron cut-off of the Southern Pacific line was revived and this brought about a desire on the part of many in this city to have car shops ami terminals here. Efforts along this line were for a time halted owing to the movement to have the Southern Pacific and the Central Pa cific unmerged. This question, as it had a considerable bearing on the future of this city, drew the' atten tion of the chamber of commerce and others who were active in the solu tion of the rail problems here ami no definite results in the way of local development were delayed, "With the starting of construction work on the Natron line and the near approach of the time when this will be completed, the situation is now in the desired phase where this city can go before the railroad officials with a definite offer looking to the loca tion here of the terminals, The Southern l'ncifif payroll nt present approximates SUHUKK) uim...v .... .. , ........ mouth iu thia 'itv.
