The marked feature Of the September statement

the Oregon Short Line system, including the
Oregon Railway and Navigation lines The two

and the Navigation Ss33,2s6 Should the
September rate of earnings be maintained through
| the year the Short Line system will earn about
100000 above the rental Of the Navigation
| Line, nearly per cent on its own stock. The
large crops in Oregon and the reopening Of the
of traffic for the Short Line, encourage the belief
that better results now than this may be
expected The effect Of these increased earnings
