MORE BOATS ON THE RIVER.

The o. r. & N. Will Establish Its Line
Between The Dalles and Portland.
For almost year the Columbia river
has been open to free navigation from
The Dalles to the sea, but until recently
this great water course has not been
taken advantage of by foreign trans
portation lines, the D. P. s. A. N. Co.
having had the only line of steamers
on the river until little more than
month, when the lone was put on the
route between here and Portland.
Probably it will not result in any
material reduction in freight rates.
but it will make marked difference
the passenger traffic so far as The
| Dalles is concerned. The o. r. & N.
Co. having connections with eastern
lines will be in position to offer
tourists ride on the river will neces-
state their stopping in The Dalles
few hours at least, and the city will
| thus come iuto more or less promi-
nence by being seen by thousands of
people, who under present arrange
ments, pass through on the trains.
never seeing The Dalles at all. When
the Christian Endeavors visited the
coast last simmer, comparatively few
visited the Dalles, because there was
not through connection to the east ex
cept such as necessitated layoff here
for day, but had the o. II & N.
line of boats on the river then the En-
deavors would have visited The Dalles
and this will be the outcome with
tourists in the future.
But now there is prospect of still
another competitive line, the o. r. & N.
Co., having determined to put boats on
the line. Concerning this determine
tion, the Oregonian of Saturday says:
"The primary object OF the service
on the middle river is to attract
tourists. OF the thousands of well-to-
do visitors who make the Pacific Coast
tour, probably not one in so makes the
water trip to The Dalles. which affords
the most magnificent combination of
mountain, river and forest scenery in
the world. This fact will be widely
advertised in the East all winter, in
anticipation of very large tourist
travel next spring and summer. The
ride through the Cascade locks is of
itself no everyday experience, and no
doubt thare are many Oregonians who
will find the trip attractive. Through
passengers will be given the choice of
rail or river route to and from The
Dalles, and time cards will be so ar
ranged that boats will connect with
trains.
"Incidentally, freight traffic will
not be overlooked. The little valleys
on the north shore of the Columbia
have been filing up of late, and there
is considerable local business. 1t is
probable that the steamer T. J. Potter
and Harvest Queen will be assigned
to the new service at the start, one
leaving Portland and one The Dalles
every morning"
That this action on the part of the o.
R & N. will prove beneficial to The
Dalles cannot be denied.

THROUGH CALIFORNIA,

An Interesting Illustrated Talk ON an In.
terestiug Subject.
The lecture delivered Saturday even
ing in the Congregational church by
Miss Kelleher was one that was intens-
ly entertaining and instructive. Miss
Kelleher- is an extremely pleasing
speaker, and is perfectly conyersant
with the subjects which she discusses.
She first approached her hearers at the
Union depot at Portland, and for a
time called their attention to the facii-
tiles offered by transportation lines
for carrying travellers oyer the great
Northwest. She invited their atten-
tion to an elegantly apportioned day
coach on the Southern Pacific, and
then took them on flying jaunt
toward the south, making the first
stop at Medford, a splendid birds-eye
view of which place was thrown upon
the canvass. From there the audience
was carried over the Siskiyous and
shown the magnificent scenery along
the route of travel-the numerous
pleasure resorts to be found in the
mountains, the great spring that is the
source of the Sacramento river, and
the principal points of interest that
are to be found along that river to the
capital of California. From there the
hearers were taken over hills and
through valleys, sometimes by stage
coach, sometimes by railroad to the
many places of note, and were finally
invited to make an ascent of Mt.
Shasta, from the summit of which tie
beauties of nature were admired.
On leaving Sacramento valley an
intermission was given to allow the |
operator of the stereopticau to adjust
his views, during which time Miss !
Kelleher gave pleasing recitation.
Resuming the journey, San Fran
cisco was reached and many of the no.
table buildings of that busy city were
thrown upon the scene. From there
the audience was taken through
Southern California, sand the many
famous winter resorts, orange groves,
flower gardens, and magnificent parks
of that wonderful section were por-
trayed. The lecture throughout held
the audience spell-bound. and so deep
was the interest that few realized
when it closed they had sat for two
hours viewing California, or perhaps
more appropriately speaking, travelled
all over that great state while still
being comfortably housed in their
home town.
