in the newspapers OF this section re-
Gently given to a proposed change In
the route of the Southern Pacific
railroad over the SiskIyou mountains.
The Ashland Tidings, under date OF
September lS, in an article anent the
controversy, says;
at is a fact, however, patent to
anyone familiar with the country,
or who is capable of reading the con-
tours of a map that If a suitable site
for tunneling railway passage
through the Siskiyous could be found
west and south OF Ashland and Wsg-
ner Butte with proper approaches
from the California side, the new
line would. from every consideration
of economy and grade, be carried
down the Little and Big Applegate to
Grants Pass or a point near there, or
If 1t approached any town this side OF
the Pass, it would probably be Jack
sonyille and thence on to Central
Point or near there. In either case,
Medford would be left far off the

and with truth, that the only feasl'
