men at work laying track. They are pro.
crossing at the rate Of $500 to 5000 feet

shall establish passenger train service be.

service on or about that date, running out

"This will enable mail to reach the in.

shorten the old route from The DaIles to
intermediate points sixty miles, displacing
stage lines to that extent. Daily stages
will be put on at Shaniko to Prineville

While Senator Butler would not discuss

in charge of the Chicago headquarters,

said. Everything will run so smoothly
