gon Navigation company and the Union
Pacific for moving the crop. AS it ap-
peared by the GLOBES telegraphic columns
yesterday morning that the Northern Pacific
directors had ratified the terms of the final
lease of the Oregon Railway lines 10 the
Union and Northern Pacific, it would seem
that the problem as to which of the Pacific
companies will get away with the bulk Of
the grain shipments to the East would
soon come up for solution. If it is
true, as has been alleged, that these Pacific
lines have agreed to place the line of ship
ments on an all-rail basis, the lake route
via the Northern Pacific would be barred
and this grain would come through st. Paul
instead of being shipped to Duluth, Superior
and Ashland. So far but very little Oregon
and Washington wheat has been shipped via
the Northern Pacific. Like the cattle ship
ments before this season, the wheat of
Oregon and Washington has found its out
let by the Pacific seaboard via Portland and
the ports on Puget sound. This wheat will
now doubtless follow the cattle shipments
to the East. The Northern Pacific has con-
trolled the bulk, in fact about all of the
cattle shipments, and it may be assumed
that it will get away with the lions share of
the wheat.
