The Koad to The DalIes.


Sherman county is apparently more
interested in The Dalles and Fossil
wagon road than are the people of south
ern Gillian county, although the latter
will undou btedly receive more benefit
from the road than the former. The
Dalles at first promised liberal support
for this road. but went square back on
giving aid when the railroad went out
to Wasco, which makes that nearer
railroad point to this section than The
Dalles. But if The Dalles could but see
it, it is that city, the head of navigation.
that will be by far the greatest bene-
ficiary. OF course. if we could get an
oren river to Arlington, there would be
very little need for this road, but we
very much fear. that an open river from
Arlington to the sea is a long way off.
and will never be realized while Eastern
Oregon has a Dalles man in congress.
Therefore, let US all work with will for
the wagon road to The Dalles, even in
spite of the lack of interest in the pro-
ject shown by the short sighted business
men of that place.-Fossil Journal.
The above is respectfully referred to
the Commercial Club fer their consider
alton. The Dalles cannot afford to re.
fuse the trade OF any section when it is
| offered.
