saving in construction. It would be
necessary to build about 26 miles of

Diagonal, is in excellent condition

stretch of road in the state. In other
words, if the route by Hermiston is
selected, it would be necessary to
build but 21 miles of road, while via
Umatilla 26 miles of construction
would be necessary.
The route through Pendleton as it
now follows, is, of course, entirely
out of the question if economy is to
be practiced. It is practically a 65-
