Only one material change in the
rOHte already Adopted by the eity for
the line through to the roast was sug
gested by the Twohys. Aeting iion

and that the road rottM mvuh ton

wen? IhM. Then wkrti the main line
continued on the present Minev to
wnrd the eoaM this five, wiles of line
to THkihua would be a most valuable
feeder. This proposed change met
the approval of the commission.
Xo Ilonil Sato Necessary
"Tlio starting of construction and
the completion of. (he road, at least
n far an Tnkilimi, according to our
agreement with tlio city, in not de
pendent upon the sale of stock or of
bonds," said Mr. Twohy at the coai
mihhion meeting. 'We propoc to do
this upon our own rcnoiirees. We
have the cpiinit'iit now htnnding idle
for uso in building and we have much
of the equipment necessary for op
eration. Neither is it our intention
to take the time limit in building the
vunoiis units. Wo are gong to press
bidding operations', and there is no
reason now present why the road
hhould not bo completed to Hoys hill
within sixty, or at. the most, ninety
day. Wc are more anxious upon
thfa point than you people can pos
sibly be, for we feel that the. tonnage
at thu copper mines and in the Illi
nois valley forcnt and fields must be
made available before the road will
lie a paying property."
"Laborer can be obtained nt al
most our own figure in Portland at
the present time," remarked Mr.
Q'wohy. ".Nevertheless, we are not
hunting cheap labor, and while $2
seems to be a ruling wage for common
labor, wo are telling Mr. Harmon (o
employ local wen as far as iM)sibIe,
and ho is authorized to pay $2.25 for
common labor nt thin time. Wu nre
leady to proceed with the spending
of onr money upon this project even
before, the. details ure all arranged,
for wo nre. anxious to get speedy ac
Hum. It may bo that the dealing of
lite right of way from Wildoivillo may
bo contracted for with local people,
so us to give (hem all employment and
buyo the work ilono now while the
ground in in the best shape. This
will bo delermined us soon ns wc re
turn from the present trip, which
takes us east as fur as Montreal. Wo
will, bo buck within, two weeks, liow-
ever,"
Will Kiuplojr Muny Men
Asked concerning the probable
muguitiire, of their operations in pros.
I'cujing tliQ work, tlio younger Twohy
said;
''It is well -within the rane of pos
sibility that 2,100 men will be employ
ed in the near future, My father

Pacific wt Object hp
"Onr intention in the Inking over of
this line is to carry out tlio plan that
Intel been laid out, that of a road to
the coast," continued Mr. Twohy.
"While the nrrnngcincht with the city
of Ornnts Pass takes into considera
tion only the line to the Illinois vnl
ley, the plans for tbo road arc un
changed in n general way. The name
'Oregon & Cnlifomin Const Line rail
vond' seeais to cm or the ground
thoroughly, and thnl will undoubted
ly remain the name of the rond. Its
mission, that of reaehinir the const at
Crescent City, nlso remains uti
clinngcd, though the problems of con
struction from Wnldo on have not
yet been taken up."
