Wonderful Tunnel Projected.

Sweeping down the side Of the Cas-.
eade mountains, IN Washington, an ava.
llanche carried To destruction two rail-.
wsy trains, four electric locomotives, part
Of the little town Of Wellington, and
one hundred lives. This catastrophe,
one Of the worst n the history Of the
Northwest, and unique IN the annals Of
irailroading has served TO stimulate in-
terest in a project for the longest tunnel
in the world boring its way beneath
the tall Cascades Tor a distance Of thir.
4 ty.two miles and obliterating a mountain
barrier that now divides the state into
two widely diverse sections Such
tunnel would Be longer than any three
mountain bores now in existence, yet, in
! the belief Of engineers, it is not inn
practical merely gigantic project
1t was about a year ago that a PAM
phlet was issued anonymously outlining
the plan for the Cascade tunnel It's re.
eeption was not fattering. Newspapers
ridiculed ii as ehimerical the dream Of
ain hundred years in the future Author

publication General Chittenden, then
