10 INVADE THE INTERIOR
Eloctrlc Line from Condor to
Be Used for Shipping
Ore, Coal and Other
Resources OF Con-
Z traforegon.

Organization Of the Wasco
County Electric & Power Com
pany was effected in this city
on Monday evening a few hours
sfter a large delegation Of Port
Aand people and other persons in
tNrested in the movement arriv-
ed. As proposed the company
viii invade the Deschutes and
John Day Valleys with an cleo
trio line that will commence in
this city going south to Fossil,
thence to Antelope, Madras and
Bend Branches will be built to
Howard and Dayville. At the
nesting held in this city it was
decided to commence getting the
right-of-way at once and con-
struetion work will begin as soon
as possible from this place to
Fossil. cars to be run first by
means Of a donkey engine. At
the same time big water plants
for generating electricity will be
a-wstructed on the Deschutes
and John Day rivers.
The capital stock of the COM
pany is named at So, 900, 600, and
as several offers have already
been made by Eastern capitalists
for the floating of the $l5, 900, 900
in bonds, there is no doubt but
that the work will be carried on
to early completion.
The main object which the
company has in view and which
will be the one important factor
for the building of the road, is
the use to which it will be put in
shipping out the ore and coal in
which the company is interested
in the great central Oregon coun-
try. A smelter is to be installed
at the mouth of Trout creek,
where the ore will be gotten ready
for shipment. The coal beds
south of Fossil will also furnish
a share of work for the road.
The building of this line will
build up Condor and vicinity to
such an extent as it has never
been before and will develop the
-svast territory south, which has
had practically no outlet for its
untold wealth and resources.
The fact that Condor is to be
made the starting point as well
as the headquarters for this large
enterprise will mean the greatest
boom that this town has ever ex-
perienced and will be the making
of a city twice as large within a
few years.
The promoters who are heading
the movement are Oregon men,
with the exception of c. D.
Charles, who is from the East.
They are all men who have been
watching the tremendous growth
and strides of this section of the
state and know the future of
such a venture.

elected here Monday evening are:
