Canadian wheat destined for the
C;ient viii % rolling over the o. r.
& n. ifom Spo',ada t. be loaded ut
Portland and shipped to the various
markets in Japan, China and Siberia.
II traffic arrangements now being
negotiated between the o. r. Il y. and
the Canadian Pacific are completed.
In order to offset the invasion OF
Portland by the Northern Pacific. by
way Of the North Bank railway, the
o. r. & y. has reached out for new
territory and the first and greatest
stroke is about to be made I'm reach
ing into Canada over the Spokane
Northern and a new line that is being
completed north Of Spokane, connect
ing with the Canadian Pacific.
This will give the o. Il. & N direct
communication with St Paul Mime
apolis, Winnipeg and the Great
Lakes and will mean an enormous in
crease of trade for Portland.
In return for the use of Canadian
Pacific tracks by the o. r. & N. the
Canadian Pacific will use o. r. & N.
tracks into Portland from Spokane,
thus giving that transcontinental sys-
tenn direct communication with Port
land, In opposition with the Northern
Pacific, its great rival i'm the traffic
of the north Pacific coast.
The route of the o. r. & y. from
Spokane to Portland is natural river
grade and the Canadian Pacific can
send thousands of tons of export
wheat and other grain from the Ca
madam districts by way of this easy
grade, much cheaper than it can be
hauled over the mountains to Vancou-
Yer or Victoria.
This new arrangement means more
for Portland, If effected. than any
other transportation scheme yet at
tempted in the northwest. Practi-
cally all the export wheat going from
Canada westward, goes out now by
way of the British Columbia ports,
while this arrangement Will bring II
I by way of Portland and will give the
, o. r. G. n. an outlet for timber and
| other oregon products into the very
heart of the Northern Pacific's ter
ritory at st. Paul and Minneapolis.
1t will probably make Portland
/ headquarters for New Zealand, Aus
, tralan and oriental steamer lines nov
having headquarters at Vancouye
