PORTAGE RAILWAY PLANS NOW
IN THE HANDS OF THE
COMMISSION.
Contract for the Work of Constructions
Will Be Let Early Next
Week.

The official engineer of the state
board of portage commissioners. A. J.
Mcmillan. has taken to Salem final
surveys and estimates on the cost Of
building the road, which will be con-
sidered at the meeting that is being
held in Portland this week, This sur
vey is for Il portage road around the
Cello falls in the Columbia river. and
does not in any way interfere with the
construction of the canal by the gov
eminent. Several problems. such as
loading and unloading freight. have
been worked out in different ways, and
the most feasible will be. selected by
the board The estimated cost is not
yet made public but will far exceed
the amount of money appropriated by
the Legislature for that purpose, $685.
900. But under agreement with the
Open River association. of eastern
Oregon. the state is to furnish the
money appropriated for that purpose
and the association is to furnish
contractor who will do the work ac-
cOrdlng to the specifications of the
state board. The Open River associa-
ton will raise sufficient money to pay
the contractor for his charges over
and above the $165, 900, and it is likely
that the road will be begun within
short time.
