A sago brush waste n year

if the sun shines and tho roads

aro good growing crops they say
it is a favored spot and such pe

WHAT TIIK "UOSS'' TOUNO
The manager of this groat re
ligious weekly is now in Portland
where he mcota with tho other
members of the Stnto Highways
Commission and if lliu hopes aio
realized Central Southeastern
Oregon will recoivo some recog
nition by railroad peoplo or tho
state will know tho reason why.
Accompanied by his wife and
Httlo daughter, Mai jorie, he took
the uUige last Sunday morning,
via Canyon Citv By the way.
Nothing else was accomplished
at the meeting Tuesday other
than a general discussion of the
railroad situation throughout the
state. Lvery member nresant
was thoroughly wide awake to
the necessity of opening up tho
interior, and while no radical
methods will be undertaken, the
commission expects to nccom-!
plish something towark exploit-1
ing the actual resources and1
needs of transportation.
Another meeting was called,
but what was actually outlined
could not bo received by this ol
fico befoie going to press.
Portland businessmen nio very
much interested in getting trans
portation into this region and are
going into tho matter quito un
selfishly. According to ono big
wholesale man Portland is will
ing to Uiko chances with San
Francisco or any other placo in
competing for tho trade of this
district and a road across the
state to Coos Bay is looked upon
with favor, oven though it does
not como direct to Portland.
Tho Deschutes lino is also fav
ored, but .qftt.givcn tho piofer
ence as they say wo need both.
The local representative on tho
Highways Board pointed out tho
advanlago of tho east and west
lino to connect with tho propos
ed Deschutes road, thus cutting
out tho heavy grado ore tho Bluo
Mountains and giving a direct
water grado into Portland.
