NORTH COAST ROAD
Railway Drawn on Paper That is to
Enter City of Walla Walla
Two Directions.

Another railioad on paper is being
built. This time the road centers at
Walla Walla. reports giving two ter
minals to the garden city. The Union
says one of them to be known as the
Walla Spokane branch and the
other as the Walla Walla- Puget Sound
Branch. This information has only
recently been CLEANED by the Walla
Walla paper through newspaper in
terview with President Robert E.
Strahorn. Of the North Coast road,
who is quoted as follows in this regard :
"At suitable pionts in the Big Bend
what country the North Coast is pro-
jecting branches which will insure it
a fair share of the great traffic OF that
section. Our engineers are now at
work on new branch in this region
on which the company has but recent
ly decided. This line will be about
so miles long and is planned to leave
the main line at a point some miles
south OF Ritzville, passing through
that place. and on through Harrington
to Davenport. This branch is not as
yet entirely surveyed.
THE North Coast is securing short
line from point near Ritzville on the
Spokane Colum bia river division, south
to Walla Walla. And not only does
this line furnish Walla Walla- -Spo-
kane route about 40 miles shorter than
any existing rute but has the same
high standard of light grades and
curvature which has been adhered to
on the main lines. The great attention
being given at the engineering and
right-of way work on the Spokane
Walla Walla line, as we'll as on the
Walla Walla Puget sound line.
''The Spokane and Palouse branch
of the North Coast. following the easy
grades and very direct route-almost
a straight line-furnshed by Hangman
creek, gives it an ideal line into the
Palouse country-for example, some
eight miles shorter between Spokane
and Tekoa than existing lines, with a
maximum grade of six-tenths per cent
against grades of over two per cent on
the others"
In case the plans as announced by
President Strahorn are carried out,
Walla Walla will be given better rail-
road service than had been expected,
one branch of the new transportation
line entering from the west and the Spo-
kane branch from the north. The sur
vey of this road, as first completed,
shows the PROPOSED line to Walla Walla
from Puget Sound, but the proposed
extension from Ritzville to Walla
Walla is not given on late railroad
maps, showing the action of the
officials to have been an afterthought
Work ON the entire system is being
carried on satisfactorily, and every
effort is being put forth to eliminate
heavy grades which have proved to be
undesirable in roads already in opera
tion in southeastern Washington.

waists bids fair to go out Of fashion,
and the Venus form, long admired, but
seldom emulated, is to have it's inning.
Mrs. Roosevelt's action as sartorial
reformer is not without precedent.
When Mrs. Cleveland was America's g
first lady, she placed an eternal taboo
on the hustle and put the ban OF
official displeasure on that hideous in
strument of deformity. At that time
the hustle had grown to enormous size
and caused the American woman to
assume a resem mblance to the hump
backed ship of the desert. Mrs. Clev-
Glands example was speedily followed
by the nations femininity and the
hustle became back number.
The OPPOSITION of Mrs. Roosevelt to
the corset..is based on hygienic facts
not unrelated to the subject of race
suicide. She believes that the COM
pressing of vital organs by means of
stays has become a positive menace
and a crime against future genera
tions. Such a crusade will not be
without its effect on the financial
world, since millions of dollars are in
vested in corset manufacture in this
country, and any attempt to bring
these articles of feminine attire into
disrepute will not be accomplished
without determined fight on part OF
the vested-or "corseted"-interests
of the nat ion.
