TO BUILD PILOT ROCK RAILWAY
General Manager O'Brien Gives Out
Some Interesting information
At Pilot Rock.

That the Pilot Rock branch Of the
o. r. & N. railroad will be built with
in a reasonable time is the assurance
given the people of that place by Gen.
eral Manager ]. P. O'Brien, of the o.
r. & N. system, who has just returned
from a trip over the survey of the
branch line to the town Of Pilot Rock,
says the East Oregonian.
Mr.. O'Brien was accompanied by J.
w. Morrow, tax and land agent of the
O. R. & N, and together they closely
inspected the line of the proposed road
and Investigated the business pros
poets of that community and after
making their observation, the people
of Pilot Rock were assured by the Of
ficials that the branch was certain
ty.
It is hoped to secure the right OF
way soon that actual work may be-
gin. The line will have junction
with the main line of the o. r. & N.
near the mouth of Birch creek and
the branch trains will use the main
line between the junction and this
civ. Pendleton will be the starting
point for trains and will be the ac-
tual junction. although the switch
will be placed two miles west OF the
city for convenience and to save
building that much needless track for
the branch.
