ARBITRATION is PROBABLE
Between the Northern Pacific
and the O. r. g. N.

00IWOOi Itt0 tNOu lStOtu oCIitO
and the o. r. g. N.
The dificulties between the
Northern Pacific and o. R. & N.
regarding the building OF the road
from Riparia to Lewiston and
ultimately to Csmas Prairie, seem
to have become tied up with all
their roads in the Pacific North
west. The Oregonian. which is
generally good authority on rail-
road matters, says:
The long delay in adjusting
matters for the construction of the
railroad up the Snake river from
Riparia to Lewiston, together with
the character of the statements
that s.e given out from time to
time regarding it, and fragments
of information that leak from in
spired circles, leads railroad men
to the conclusion that the harmony
between the 0. r. Il N. and the
Northern Pacific is not too thick
to be strained. 1t is generally un-
derstood that the Lewiston rail-
road enterprise does not stand
alone. Bound up with it are the
questions Of joint trackage down
the Snake and Columbia from Ri
paria to Portland and from Port
land to Puget Sound. Upon the
settlement Of those questions there
will be less evidence Of friction be-
tween the railroads Of the Pacific
northwest.
The tracksge question presents
two phases. One railroad views
it from the standpoint Of mileage,
the other from the standpoint of
traffic. The Union Pacific in
effect says:
Between Riparia and Portland
we have 298 miles of as good
single track ~ there is in the
United States. The Northern Pa

to begin to study the question of
land values" says the Lewiston
Tribune. "It is done better now
than at q later period. Land every
where is becoming dearer. 1t IL
also becoming scarce. All the good
public land is virtually gone and
the present supply is about all that
will be available for years yet to
come. 1t will take years to COM
plete the first of the government
irrigation works and the land they
will reclaim will not nearly supply
the demand at that time. When
placed upon the market it will be
at high prices and subject to fixed
annual water rentals that will take
them out Of the classes Of ordinary
agricultural operations. The east
ern lands are now 30 impoverished
and require such fertilization that
the present migration to the west
and southwest will grow great
or instead of less. The value Of
good arabic land is one of the things
that is going constantly higher and
more difficult to secure. Many
think the price is dear already.
Many thought it was too dear 10 OF
20 years ago and on that account
refused to buy home, preferring
to wait or rent until they could
buy cheaper. Now they see Their
error, for it takes from three tC
10 times as much money to buy
an acre as it did q few years ago
As an investment for ones owl
operation land is as cheap now al
it ever was. As much clear prof.
can now be made from land cost
ing $50 per acre as could have beer
made from the same land when il
was without q purchaser at s. pei
acre. Times have changed, condi
tions have changed, methods have
changed. Improved implements
more scientific farming and diversi
fed products now enable man tt
cultivate more ground and get bet
ter products per acre than few
years ago, while the prices al
around are higher. A few years ag,
q farmer was considered an unusua
success if he could pay his stor,
bill after his years work was dom
and have q few dollars left. Nov
farmers clear from 20 to 80 pc
cent on the value of their property
and the more valuable the property
the more they can earn.
| GAS the result Of farming land j
cheaper now than it ever was, evel
where the same land now costs fiv
or 10 times as much as it did once
People are beginning to realize thes
} facts and as result the demand 70
reliable land is always increasing
The vocation is becoming more at
tractive as it becomes more profit
able. Good roads, rural mail de
liveries, increased school facilities
the growing up Of towns within
few miles Of each other, railroad
, and electric roads and the prospec
of them are all having their effec
in improving the environment an
the estate of the farmer and hi
family. Fasten yourself to tn
