equally certain to follow the advent OF
a railroad into central Oregon may also
be expected with the construction of a
railroad into the Nehalem valley. The
Lower columbia district, while greatly
retarded through lack of transportation
facilities, could ileas some Of its prc-
Ducts out of the sloughs and creeks 70
steamboat connection on the main river
before the railroad was built. The case
is different with central Oregon and
the Nehalem. Both of these rich fields
for exploration OF capital and labor
are SO effectaally bottled up that there
is hardly any possibility for further
development until they are reached by
q railroad. The almost perfect isola-
ton at this time makes it certainty
that greater plpportionate development
will follow the construction of either Of
these roads than has resulted nom the
building Of he Lower Columbia road
through territory which already had
a martial outlet TO civilization and the
markets of the world.
