Bogin.
(Oregonian Dec. 15,)
That the Columbia Southern
Railroad will be extended from
Shaniko to Bend and that work
will he commenced early in next
year is ¡insured. The cont-acts be­
tween President llarriman and
President E. K. Lytle, of tho Co­
lumbia Southern, have been sigued
and all agreements have been satis­
factorily entered into. All that
now remains is to complete plans
for the extension, have the materi­
al for the road shipped to the con­
struction points, and commence
building. Mr. Lytle announces,
that this will he done just as soon
as possible. In talking of the mat­
ter yesterday Mr. Lvtleeaid: “ All
doubt is now removed. The road
will be built. There are tio longer
any disagreements between Mr. |
llarriman and myself. We have
made satisfactory concessions, and
the contracts signed.
“ I cannot say more than this at
present, because there yet remain
some matters to be decided upon
by myself, relative to the exact
route of the extension. I think
these matters will be settled in a
few days and that all plans of the
company relative to the extension
may be made public.”

Tho Oregonian's article printed herewith shows what an intense
interest is hoi nix taken in tit is country by the people of a commer­
cial center like Portland.
This will be—not a mere jumping-off place—but a city in a few
years’ time. Possesses all the natural advantages to make it such,
timber, water power, irrigated land. etc.
Send in your order for a lot at once to the
Deschutes Townsite Co
Now that the agreement between
Mr. Harriman and Mr. Lytle have
been made, the bonds will be is­
sued by the Columbia Southern
immediately arid the most, if not
all of them will be taken up by
Mr. Harriman. In thia manner
the money necessary to build 100
miles of road from Shaniko to
Bend, will be raised. The esti-
j mated cost of this extension is
j $1,500,000.
Several routes have been survey-
\ ad between the two points to be
‘ connected by the extension, and
the edicials of the road are having
j some difficulty in deciding upon
the exact route to be shosen. All
of them present good possibilities,
but the question before the railroad
people,
how to select the best
route for the road and for the
country that will
iven railway
service.
It is expected that dirt will fly
on the grade for the extension next
spring. Work will then be pushed
with all the speed possible until
OREGON.
the line is completed into Benffi
The route is a comparatively easy
one, and there are but few heavy
grades to be dealt with
