HOOD RIVER SAVES
DAY FOR COL. MOORE

Iood River saved the day for Colonel
Moore at the Good Roads convention in
Portland last week The colonel recog-
nizes this, and is deeply gratitied at
the good work Of his Hood River friends.
81 shal, never forget you as long as
li:e," remarked President Moore in The
Dales Tuesday evening, "and ii it is
ever in my power to return the favor,
you may depend upon it ! will do what
can for you.
The squabble in the Portland conyen-
ton was over the election OF a presI-
dent. Secretary Richardson wanted to
be president and had stacked the cards
to that end But Colonel Moore and
his party outgeueraled Mr., Richardson,
and with the help OF four votes from
II ,od River postponed the election OF
the national president until the annual
November meeting.

NO NORTH BANK
ROAD FOR N. p.

President Howard Elliott Of the
Northern Pacific, who has been in
Portland for several days. Monday
gave it out to direct question, il the
Northern Pacific was to be built down
the Columbia, that no road is to be
built by the No-thern Pacific down
the north bank of tie Columbi The
company has no sue h plan in prospect
and the move, though generally cred
tied for some time past as being one
to be realized in the future, is not
even contemplated.
Mr.. Elliott stated positively the
route along the noIth bank was not
desired by the company in connection
with it. present plans and, in fact, it
had no building to be carried on in
that tern or, the ne rest woIk to be
started being that III the Clearwater
country.
On the way to Portland from st.
Paul, President Elliott and party
made a short stay in the Clearwater
region. The head of the road explains
that the surveyors are yet seeking a
route for the Northern Pacific branch
from Lewiston through the Camas
Prairie section to Grangeville. 1t
will prove a difficult engineering feat
to reach Camas Prairie without a
heavy haul, but the road from Ripa-
ria to Lewiston, which is being staked
off and will be constructed by the 0.
h. n N, to be owned jointly with the
Northern Pacific, will Ee carried out
under more favorable conditions.
Mr.. Elliott thinks the line from
Grangeville, in connection with the
Riparia- iston connection, viii
prove of vast Importance to the resi-
dents of Eastern Washington and a
large part of Idaho, because of elimi-
mating the haul from there by way of
Spokane and placing them in direct
connection with Portland.
In view of the positive assurance
that the Northern Pacific will not
build and is not the company secur-
ing the right of-way now in the White
Salmon country, makes the game grow
deeper. Who is it? Will it be found
out to be true that it is the Chicago,
Milwaukee Il st. Paul? vt any rate
some one is going to build a road
along the north bank and time alone
will tell
