Roosevelt. The chief reason for
opposing the bill was the belief
that the beet sugar interests of this
country might be jeopardized.
This has been stennously denied
by the resident and other friends
of the measure who hold that no
domestic industries will be seriously
affected.
Not only ia Heppner, but the
entire Inland Empire and Port
land as well, are anxiously await
ing the time when a railroad is ex
tended to the Willow creek coal
mines and the product put upon
the market. Here is an except
from an editoral in the Spokesman
Review, which is only one of many
similar comments by the press of
the Inland Empire:If expec
tations of the present owners are
realized the opening of these
measures will mean a great deal
Not only for eastern Oregon but
for eastern Washington as well.
The coal is said to be superior to
the Wyoming product, which now
Hells in Spokane for IS per ton, and
the secretary of the company
owning the veins declares that it
can be laid down in Portland for
lens than $3 per ton. If that
proves true, this coal can be de-
of the distressed and her people
will do their whole duty in this
case. Doubtless the lone com
pany will give a good play, at
least it is for a worthy cause and
Heppner will give theru a hearty
welcome and a big ticket sale.
