THE RAILROAD SITUATION.

The Union Pacific railway company
has put up securities as collateral to pro-
vide for their debt Of $4,000, 900. This
will put the Union in shape financially
to finish its extensions in the west and
will, no doubt, be of direct benefit to Alb
erdeen, as one of the extensions of the
Union is down the Columbia to a point
opposite Astoria, and from there through
South Bend and Aberdeen to the straits
Of Fuca, and from Aberdeen to Olympia.
1t would not be surprise at any time
to hear that work had begun on this ex-
tension.
Already the Northern Pacific has been
far-seeing enough to see the likelihood of
this move on the part OF the Union, and
is making overtures to Aberdeen with a
view to building into the city on this side
as well as on the South.
Aberdeen will be glad to welcome them
both, and will try to make it as profitable
to the roads as it will be to the city.
