Among other advantages the city of Portland
has street railway service which compares
most favorably with any other city of its size
in the United States. The lines of the Portland
Consolidated Railway company reach nearly every
portion of the city, and for all points within the
city there Is 5-cent fare with a comprehensive
transfer system.
The lines now controlled by the Consolidated
company include those originally built by seven
different companies which by various sales and
Railway company and the City & Suburban Rail-
way company which two combined their interests
on Nov 1, 1904, forming the present company.
The system comprises some 116 miles of track
and operates daily about 175 The total
equipment of the company is nearly 800 cars
Service on the various lines ranges from about
two minutes some city lines to twenty and
forty minutes on the suburban lines. During
the last three years there has been a large
amount of track relaid with heavy tee and
grooved rail, weighing from ninety-one pounds
to sixty pounds to the yard On most Of the
main business streets heavy grooved rail laid on
cement foundations with stone block pavement

struction as can be found anywhere in the coun-
try. Large expenditures have also been made
during the last three years for rolling stock
and equipment, so that the cars of the company

with long vest1buled platforms at each end, hav.

Seed company furnishes a striking ex-

is written all over this great virgin
country, and nowhere is it more pro-
nounced and in evidence than the vast
mineral wealth of the st. Helens min
ing district, which is situated in the
parts of Lewis, Skamania and Cowlitz
counties.
On the southern boundary, Mount St.

those who are familiar with mining,
these natural advantages will appeal, as
the saving cannot be overestimated.
Men of ripe experience in mining and

mining camps, and some of the largest
copper producing companies in the
United States.
In number, extent and richness, the
mineral lodges stand unsurpassed; and
in many instances the ore bodies are SO
large, and the values so great, the
owners hesitate about telling the truth
to outside capitalists, fearing to pro-

Such are the lodges discovered on the
properties of the Colista Gold & Cop

of the lodges is 60 feet in width. The

Portland, Ore, May 4.-The growth
of the Pacific northwest in fifty years
has been remarkable. From popula-
tion of 1924 in 1850 the country has
been so. rapidly settled that it's people
are essentially agricultural, extensive
manufacturing interests have devel-
oped, until their value in 1900 was
$175,O0O, 900. Foreign commerce plays
an important role in the progress of
this great country, it's value amounting
to $36,000,000 yearly.
The mineral resources OF gold, Sill
yer, copper and lead are valued at
$7O,OOO,000. This enormous growth of
population and wealth over so vast a
territory in so short time has much
to do with the Importance of the Lewis
and Clark exposition to the world at
large. The exposition has a local as
we'll as an international value to those
who participate. The attendance from on
the states Of the Pacific coast will be
middle west and the far east, so that
the exposition must prove to be an in
centive to trade beyond estimate.

try, mention of it's scenic grandeur
must be made in passing. No matter

What Oregon Is Doing.
The centennial when opened will rep
resent an outlay Of approximately
$5,OOO,000. This includes the cost Of
laying out the grounds, and the amounts
expended for buildings, exhibits and all
other purposes. The largest partici-
pant is the United States government,
which has made an appropriation Of
$475,O00. AS the government already
has on hand an exhibit worth more than
100000, which requires little reinforce
m mem 400 its action is equivalent to
Next in rank is the state Of Oregon,
with an appropriation Of $45O,00O,
which is at the rate Of nearly ST for
every man, woman and child in the
state. No state having so small pop,
ulation as Oregon has ever appropriated
SO large sum toward an exposition
Strange as it may seem, Oregon is bet
ter able to give so large an amount than
many of the older and richer states, for
the reason that it has no state debt and
is constantly increasing in population
and expanding it's industries The Elk
position company, which was organized
and financed by citizens of Portland
will expend $475,0O0, raised from the
sale of stock and other sources.
