THE ORIENTAL TRADE.
81 really have never taken the trouble to
ascertain to Just how much this Oriental
trade amounts, but | suppose since the
Canadian Pacific and the Northern Pacific
have started out 10 compete with the Pa
ific Mail and the Oceanic lines the trade
will be so much divided up that it will not
cut very great figure,
How about that ocean line that was to
connect with your road at San DiegOY
well, that was never established and all
/ can say is that while we would be glad to
Cooperate with any steamship company
which has any intention to establish route
from the Orient TO San Diego we know Of
no such probability at the present time and
we certainly Lave no intention to run any
steamers ourselves"
What action do you propose to take con-
corning the Temecula Canyon road, near
San Diego, which was washed out last
winter and has not been rebuilt since in
spite Of all the protestatons of the citizens
in that section"
81 shall give this matter great deal of
consideration, but our experience with that
road has been so very costly and disastrous
that | believe If we will reconstruct it at
all 1t will be over another more feasible
route than the one washed away three
times"

fore our lines in that section can be made
