survey of the Great Northern Skagit
river line completed up the west side
of the Cascades and the survey from
the main line across the Columbia
river and to connection with the
survey now being made through the
Methow valley connecting the two
surveys, the conclusion forces itself,
many declare, that the Great North

out its itention of long standing to
build a new main line from. Spokane
to the Coast.
The activities of other great sys-
TENS in this direction, the Milwaukee

weather or the deep SHOWS in the

Locally, the belief is general that
the Great Northern will build the new
main line soon. This belief is en-
couraged by information that has
leaked" from former surveyors, that
a line could build from Spokane to
tidewater, traversing the Methow val
ley, eighty miles shorter than any
present route at a cost of a million
dollars less, and with a lower pass

THREE TRANSC0N-

YAKIMA EXPECTS THREE BIG
ROADS-NUCH ACTIVITY OVER
CONTROL OF THE VARIOUS
ROADS.

North Yakima, Dec. 2.-Sudden
activity which has been injected into
the extension of electric and steam
feeder roads from North Yakima
indicates that the different transcon-
tinental railroad lines are now fight
ing for the control of some strategic
pass in the Cascade mountains. On
the arrival here last Wednesday of a
mysterious and silent Mr. Robbins,
who departed as quietly as he came,
the Yakima Valley Traction company
began actual construction on the
North Sixth avenue extension to
Fruitvale. At the same time the
same Yakima Valley Traction COM
pany, which is believed here to be a
contingent of the North Coast, or in
reality the Chicago & Northwestern,
is busy laying steel east of here into
the Mckee pass. The fact that this
extension is to be pushed is shown
from the fact that the contract for
the construction has already been let
to c. E. Lum of this city.

Three TranscOntinental Lines.

1t is the contention of business
men here, who are in a position to
know, that this city will soon have
three transcontinental roads and that
this city will be the center of num-
erous lines Along with these con-
tentions, others are made that the
Northwestern ana the Northern Pa
cific are fighting for the control of
the feeder lines throughout the vast
Yakima valley, the Mckee, the Sun
nyside district and the Teton. Tt is
believed that the Northern Pacific
has control Of another road which
is being projected to the east and
west of here That the Portland
branch of the Milwaukee will pass
through here is believed because of
the extension surveys that are being
made west from Hartford. on the
Columbia river, from which point
connection will be made at Beverly
on the main line of the Milwaukee.
Connects With Northwestern.
1t seems evident from the course
followed by the North Coast and the
extensions made by the Northwestern
that the two roads are in reality one
as far as backing are concerned. The
present surveys of the North Coast
follow up the Naches river and the

and hollyhocks), nestled among huge
elms. On the other side Of the little
green road rose the gray Norman tow

the rectory.

He got down from the carriage and
sent the man to the local inn, and
then walked up the trim graveled
sweep to the old house.

door took him at once to long, low

pot-pourri and all the simple refine.

If man buys $4,000 worth Of
bonds, pays the money for them. locks
them up in his safe-deposit box and
waits for the interest, that is making
an investment, says Lippincott's Mag
azine.
If he orders $4,000 worth OF bonds
bought for his account, puts up $1,000
as collateral and then sits around for
the bonds to go up, that is trading on
margin.
II he meets pretty girl, falls in
love with her. finds out that she has
sl000,000 in her own right, gets wit
nesses to prove that she has a fine
disposition and Is good housekeeD-
er; in short, gathers all the evidence
beforehand that she will make an
ideal wife, why, that is gambling.
If he enters politics from disinter-
ested motives, sees a rotten condition,
makes up his mind to reform it,
makes no compromises with anybody,
stands on his merit, fights an honest
fight wins, puts his reform through
