THE RAILROAD LOG.

Work is progressing rapidly on the ex
tension of the Northern Pacific to this place
McDermid Co. the contrac tors have near
ly 400 men at work. They are scattered all
along between the Pokegama and the juno
ton, the heaviest force being on the west
ern end. From the Poke CANA into town
the work has been ublet, and the sub con.
tractor will be at work on it within ten
days East Of the Nemadji force Of about
20 men started to work few days ago cut
ting out the timber. McDcrmid Il Co. have
the contract for miles east of the Nemadii,
and viii ,sssh isyshRae- This does 40. look
like an abandonment Of the south shore ex-
tension. The two surveying parties betwe, n
here and Ashland met this week at the
Biulc river, and Col. Weeks, the engineer of
the Wisconsin, has gone out to their camps
1t is said they have found an entirely feasible
route between Superior and Ashland by the
way of Pike Jake.
The Chicago, Portage & Superior company
have located their line to a point about 25
miles south of Superior, and are pushing
rapidly ahead Mr. A. B. Schofed the
chief engineer this week went around to the
North Wisconsin road to put party in the
field ia come north from the junction with
that road. Mr.. Angle, the contractor is ex
pected to be at work grading the line within
a week or two.
The Omaha surveyors in charge of Mr..
Abbott, ran preliminary line from the
range to the Nernadji, ard are now locat-
ing southward, their camp Icing some ten
miles out. They are finding an e1cellcnt
line, and It is given out that grading on it
will commence very soon.
The Duluth l. Winnipeg company, who
are proposing TO build from Superior to the
southern boundary of Manitoba, have corps
of 25 surveyors in the field and are making
good progress They expect to build %
miles this fall. They have land grant of
10 sections to the mile of swamps lands
from point across the river from Superior
to the northern boundary of Minnesota.
1t would not at all surprise US to see 2, 900
or 5000 men at work on railroads in this
vicinity within the next 60 days.

Omaha Road has several parties in
the field, making surveys for road
from Eau Claire TO Superior. Con-
tracts have been let tor fifteen
miles of road at Eau Claire, and for
twenty miles beyond the North
Wisconsin. The whole $50 miles
will be done next year. The
Chicago. Portage & Lake Superior
Air Line, which has very valuable
grant OF 100000 scres OF timber
land, is surveying a line between
Chicago and Lake Superior, and
will have its term mus Mt Superior
City, to which sixty miles will be
built by next May. The ST. Paul
Minneapolis & Manitoba Company
lave recently bought the Mime.
apesis~G St. Cloud charter, and are
believed TO be about 10 build to and
through Superior in order to con-
meet with the roads east that will
give them an outlet to Sault Ste.
Marie and Mackinac. A conference
was held at Duluth between The
Northern Pacific managers and the
owners of the charter of the On
tonagon, Montreal & Wisconsin
Railr Dad to consider the feasibility
of extensions and ALLIANCES by
which the Northern Pacific itself
Will connect at the Sault with the
Canada Central, and at Mvckinac
with the whole lake and railroad
ny stem that leads TO the Atlantic
Coast. Whether this is done or
not, Northern Pacifc's new manage
ment look to Chicago as their most
important outlet. There the capital
and industry of the West are con
centrated. and laws of commercial
gravitation will attract the larger
part Of its business TO Chicago.
There is little doubt that the
Omaha builds to Superior City to
give the Northern Pacific it's outlet

Yreka Journal.
The travel and freight business on the
railroad from Portland to Roseburg is very
slim. One car takes about all the passen-
gers along the whole line, while the Cali
fornia road from Redding to San Francisco
increases all the way down, so as to require
at least three or four cars on leaving Ma
rysville The freight business to Redding
is also much greater than on the Oregon
branch. With connection at Redding from
Roseburg the business would be as great
for the distance as on the overland road,
because the way business would be more
extensive than through Nevada, Utah and
Colorado for the same distance, which way
business could be monopolized by the rail-
road company without ocean steamer CON-
petition except to Portland. Il Yreka Jour-
