All of the central Oregon dis trict from Condon south and tributary to the proposed line of the Wasco County Electric s Water Tower company will be vastly benefited by the new line, according to J. E. Hunt, former state senator from Multnomah county and now a prominent hardware merchant of Condon "There are now about four towns in Eastern Oregon that can beat Condon out a little bit,' said Mr. Hunt last night, but if that road is completed as soon as it is said it will be, there will be none that Condon can not boast over within a couple of year; It is to be the terminal of the new line and will naturally be the center of a large trading business as soon as the road is in ojieration and the produce of the country is moved over it. "Adiacenttothe new line as it is now proposed are vast wheat fields, immense stock ranges, coal deposits and gold mining districts. All of these products will be brought on the road to Condon, the terminal of the line and the town will prosper be cause of the added trade. "But it is not to Condon alone that the line will be a benefit," continued Mr. Hunt "The whole district will be the gainer. The wheat of the country, tho stock, the coal, which is of good quality, and the gold ore. will all be shipped out over the line and be able to find a market where it is now Dractically impossible be- cause of the rugged nature of the countrv and the lack of trans nortation." ( Mr. Hunt is enthusiastic over the future of that section and savs it will be one of the best parts of the state as soon as the last spike of rail transportation is driven and the new line is open to traffic Oregon Sunday Journal.
