VALLEY TOWNS WANT
SERVICE IMPROVED

Declaring that since the Southern
Pacific ceased to operate the Silver
ton local between Portland and Sill
erton. they have been inconvenienced
in railroad service, a large number
of citizens and business men of Hub
bard today filed a petition with the
Railroad Commission, asking that the
train again be put into operation.
The company ceased to operate the
train some time ago, and since then
the people of Hubbard have been de-
pendent upon a train which reaches
that town early In the morning. This
train, the petitioners say, is always
late from a half to three hours, and
often when they go to Portland, be-
cause of this, they are compelled to
remain over night. In view of this
and in view of the fact that the towns
of Aurora. Barlow, Candy, New Era
and Clackamas are also directly af-
fected and suffering from the same
lack OF service, the commission is
asked to see to 1t that better service
is given.

long cherished by engineers of piercing the An

November 27. 1903 when the workmen of the
Transandne railway approaching from opposite
sides OF the tunnel, faced the last thin line OF
rock which. In the heart of the Andes. separate ed
Chile from the Argentine Republic.
1t was Italian workman, operating under a
British engineer in the employ of an Anglo-Amer-
lean firm. and carrying to fruiton the project of
two Chilean brothers. who placed the fuse for
the demolition of the rocky barrier and opened
up a line OF communication which, in the opinion
of leading journal of the United States lis like
ly to change political relations in South America
and commercial conditions throughout the world"
The first man to traverse the tunnel from end to
END was the chief OF the Argentine section of
workmen followed by 80 of his operatives (most-
ly Chileans). who returned to their native land
with banners flying and cries of victory
From the capitals OF Chile and the Argentine
Republic functionaries and private individuals
5ourneyed to be present at this last act in an IN
dertaking which has engaged the talents of
succession of engineers and financiers since 1860
and which, upon completion will take rank with
the great Alpine tunnels.
Fifty years ago the North American captain of
industry. William Wheelwright. prepared a ten
tative plan for crossing the continent from Rosario
In the Argentine Republic to the Chilean port of
Caldera, over the Pass of San Francisco Thir-
teen years later the Chilean brothers Juan and
Mateo Clark, to whom the credit for the project
of the line as completed must be awarded. took
the first practical steps in the matter through
concession obtained from the Argentine govern
ment for railroad from Buenos Aires to the
Chilean frontier
In 1880 the first section from villa Mercedes to
Mendoza was built by the Argentine government
connecting with the Clark line from Buenos Aires
to villa Mercedes. in all $50 miles. subsequent
concession to British company secured the con-

Though Brazil and the Argentine Republic are
washed by the Atlantic, tracts of rubber
growing districts of the and OF the agricul-
tural and cattle sections of the other lie far
nearer to the Pacific. With facilities of trans

AS a medium Of traffic the Importance of
the route can not be overestmated At present
South America is to great extent commercial
appanage of Europe. On the east coast the trade
OF the United States with the countries of the At

ping and also by the fact that the east coast
to the south Of the turn of the continent is really
much nearer to Europe than to the United States
with the added advantage of more favorable sail
Ing conditions, and the west coast is as remote
by from New York as 1t is from Liverpool or
Hamburg. When the Panama canal is completed
different condition will prevail. Then the United
States. especially In its manufacturing sections
will enjoy tremendous advantage In respect to
all that portion of South America situated on or
commercially tributary to the Pacific. Already the
opening of the Tehuantepec line across Mexico and

The four craters which contain the lakes are
