Lester B French Wants Right
of Way to Canemah

Lester B. French, who claims to re-
side in Portland, is in Salem canvass.
ing the property owners who have
land north of this city with view OF
securing a right Of way across their
property, so feet in width, for the pur
pose of building a railroad.
The contracts are in the form of a
deed, and give French, or his sue.
cessors, until July 1, 1907, to complete
their road, and in the event that in
junction suits should be instituted
or the building otherwise delayed by
legal process, then the contract is ex.
tended indefinitely.
It is claimed by some that Mr..
French is representing the Oregon
Water Power Company, and that the
road will be built in connection with
the Portland-C Canemah line, but, from
what can be learned from Mr.. French,
he is in the interest of Eastern CAPT.
talists, and is securing the contracts
with the understanding that his com
pany win take up the proposition in
time for the fair next year.
The land owners and Mr.. French
will have a meeting this afternoon,
and will discuss the various features
of his plan at that time. 1t is thought
by some that it would only be fair to
all concerned that Mr.. French show
some substantial plan or his ability to
construct the road before the farmers
are asked to deed away a portion of
their land.
The Dallas-Salem road, however,
will not be lost sight of during the dis
cussion of the proposed Caneman
line, and whenever Mr. French has
perfected his plans, in the manner fur
nished by Mr.. Coovert, and will meet
with the citizens of Salem, and tell
them what he wants, and what he will
give in return, he will secure his right
Of way without trouble.
