Railroad in Salem.
Salem Daily Talk.


We hear all sorts of rumors about
railroads in Salem, that the old stand
ard gauge company will build a depot
in the city Is certain. That they will
80 to the Farmers warehouse and out
TO the fair grounds is equally certain.
But this viii take a little time, and
but little. Then if it runs to Silver
ton 1t viii take the carrying trade Of
the country. The narrow gauge read
is another matter IF interest to Salem.
We have the rumor that it viii run
from Perrydale to Salem, crossing the
river here and using the Opera house
building for a depot. The building is
now owned by the Scotch company,
and 1t = "a dead letter rs it now stands.
IL would make a nice depot and hotel
combined, and throw new life into our
streets. The narrow gauge road should
have crossed ct Salem in the first place
and ran directly 70 Astoria. 1t would
take oil the Columbia river tax on our
wheat and lessen the freight tariff. 1t
wonld enable ships to load and go to sea,
while they are, under present regula-
tiOns coming up the river for cargo.
The wheat Of this valley should 90
direct to Astoria, and If the cars
crossed the river at Salem. the freight
TO Astoria would be in proportion to
the tariff to Portland from Salem.
We hope to see the narrow gauge take
this route and make a depot at the
Opera house. If the narrow gauge
does not do 1t some other road will
cross AT Salem, and pass on to Astoria.
The route dowH the Willamet valley
on the east side, through Lane, Linn
and Marion counties crossing the
river at Salem, thence through north
IamhIll 70 Astoria, takes in the largest
and best wheat raising portion of west
ern Oregon. Ii there is any sense in
running wheat t. Portland thence To
Astoria by boats or ships from this
line, we faIl To see it. By the land
route u Astoria the wheat would be
hauled twice. by the other route it Is
moved ab"ut live times. Every time
il Is moved IL Is taxed.
