"That Is cortaln, They, therefore are satisfied to rent with their presont terminals. "Tlio construction would mean shortening of the distance from this territory to Portland by 150 miles and to San Francisco 700 miles over tho present transportation facilities offered to that city. This, naturally, would bo an advantage. It would also make a vast empire In the cen tral portion of Oregon trlhutnry to Portland, San Francisco nnd Boise, as well. "I do not believe that tho proposed routo from here to Wlnuomiiccn to perfect a connection there with the Western Parlllc is feaslblo. I inn fr.mlllnr with the routo, having been over It In former years. The cost of construction would not only be groat, but tho territory doiw not .offer In ducements for n rnllroad.
