Much Significance Attached to Trip flere..Par-

Line of Northern Pacific

There is much speculation as to the
purpose of the officials in making the.
trip at this time but it believed tftat
one of the objects is to give Mr.. Calvin
a chance to become acquainted with the
lire which he so recently became con-
nected with. Nothing is known as to-
the plans of the party on their arrival
in the city but il developed this after
noon that orders had gone out from the
\. p. offices giving notice to agents orx
the Clearwater line that the speciaf
would go up the line. All kinds OF
specula ton is rife as to what the trip
up the Clearwater by o. r. & N. off,
cials means. Much significance may
be attached to the trip, however, and II
is barely possible that an announce
ment may be made in the near future
relative to construction work on the

route but also into the interior coun-
try, invading the Northern Pacific ter
