TIE RAILROAD OUTLOOK.


The indications for the early
completion Of a railroad into Gilli-
am county were never so promising
as at present. With three cOmpan-
ies In the field, each one declaring
that they will surely build road
from Arlington to Condor, aud
that they win commence work in
the immediate future, the outlook
ie certainly favorable. Il amounts
to moral certainty that only one
Of fthese companies will finally do
business here, therefore the ques-
ton Of most interest TO the people
just now is: Which one will ulti-
mately win out in the game and
build the road?
Assuming that all three OF the
companies are acting in good faith
and that they each expect to build
the road it may be interestin G to
consider briefly their status. 40 far
as it is known, what they have SO
far accomplished and their appar-
ent ability to prosecute the work
TO n successful issue.
The company represented by Mr..
Morris and his associates, who are
now in Condor, has. We inform.
ed, secured the survey and
right Of way acquired by Elrod 4
Moore, two years ago. They admit
their inability to build the road
without the support and assistance
OF the people of this county but do
not ask for any subsidy or dona-
ton. They ask the people of this
county, however, to subsc ribe for a
certain amount Of the company's
bonds. agreeing to redeem the same
within FIVE years with six per cent
interest added. They have, as yet
no traffic arrange ment with the
o, r. IN.
The company of which Messr'
Findlay and Simmons are the heaC
was incorporated about a year agn
They have made a partial prelimi
nary survey of the route with some
estimates of cost of construction
Their representative visited New
York last Summer and the report
is current here that their project
has been satisfactorily financed by
New York capitalists and thai
all that is now holding them back
from active work on the line is the
lack of satisfactory traffic arrange
with the o. r. & N. These gentle
men have not yet Indicated wha
concessions, ifany, they will de
mand from the people of this coun-
ty.
The third company, that o
which John c. Ainsworth, of Port
land, is president, was organized
about two mouths ago. Associated
with Mr.. Ainsworth in this projec
are Lewis Gerlinger and Henry F
Conner, and all these gentlemen
stand hi gh in business and inan
cial circles of Portland. They have
as yet done no work in the felc
but the fact of their having salts
factory traffic arrangements will
the O. R. & N. gives them some ad
vantage iu the game. These gen
tlemen declare that they will build
and that they will do SO withou
one dollar in subsidies from tn,
people of this county.
Now, the gu estion is, which com
pany will build the road? This pa
percannot answer that question all
thoritatively just now. It's like th'
old game the children used to play
