"There is no doubt about it," was
the reply given a reporter of The
Capital Journal this forenoon by
Harrison Allen, general counsel for
the Oregon Electric when asked if
the company would commence the
work of extending its road to Albany
by the first of the year, and this an
swers a question which the business
men and citizens of the city have
been asking themselves and each
other for the last half year.
Dirt to Fly.
eve may experience some delays
that we did not originally antici-
pate" continued Mr.. Allen, "but for
all that the work Of building the
line to Albany will be under way by
the first of the Year. By then the
dirt will be flying, and it ought to
be finished in the course of six
months. We estimate that it will
take that length of time to COM
plete it, provided the weather is fa-
vorable, and, if it is not, then it may
take a little longer, but not much
The fact that the work may be
started late in the fall will not make
any difference, because we will be
able to go on with the work during
the winter. The Hillsboro line was
built in the winter season, and there
is no reason why railroad work

When the Senators are losing and
they drop to second place,
And the crowd is yelling wildly for
the team to take brace;
And when ON every other Sunday to
the league grounds we all
stray,
Just to see our team defeated, as we
had to yesterday;
And though Allies pitching's perfect
and Jones work is splendid,
sure,
The visitors are winning and the
score is five to four,
Then's the time We want to grab
some one and knock him off
his pins
But just observe the difference when
the home team wins.

especially in the construction of cleo
trio lines-cannot be prosecuted with
vigor and dispatch in the section over
which the Oregon Electric proposes
to build line in the winter season.
May Change Route.
well, the Oregon Electric may
change its route. he replied when
interrogated with reference to the de-
lays he had mentioned in the fore
part of the interview, 1--WE may not
follow the route along the river, but
seek another.
eve have seven routes surveyed
between here and Albany, and if it is
going to cost us top much money to
pass out over the route along the
river, we may abancon It altogether.
The Oregon Electric desires to pay a
fair compensation to every man for
his property, but it does not intend
to pay any fabulous prices. 1t in
tends to do that, and whenever l find
a piece of land where | think the
price is not right, I am going to
make it right.
Prices High.
"The company feels, however, that
the prices asked in many cases are
high. We have several cases in the
courts, and we cannot say just when
we will go to trial on them, and
there seems to be no chance of COM
promising any, save a small case.
''In taking the river route we
must pass through farming lands for
which high price is asked, and it
may be that, rather than pay it, we
will change our route, and go out
through High street or Mill, and then
by the cemetery. By taking this
route we will avoid passing through
any of the property in the city along
the riverside, and also the farming
lands, but still be able to retain our
franchises on Front street, and make
use of them.
This plan, however, is problem
atical-it is but a projected plan,
and we cannot say just what we will
do. So far we have not paid much
money down on right. of way con-
tracts, and we can well afford if we
have to pay fabulous prices for right
of ways along the river to abandon
that route, forfeit our contracts, and
take route out on High street.
Anyway he concluded, we are
here to do what is fair with anyone,
and if we can get the land along the
river route at reasonable price we
will take it, but if not, there is. like
ly to be a change of routes"

To CUT OUT
TWO.THIRDS
CITY ATTORNEY DRAWING AN
AMENDMENT TO THE CITY
CHARTER PROVIDING BONDS
CAN BE ISSUED ON SIMPLE
MAJORITY VOTE.

Convinced, after two trials at it,
that the election on the question of
issuing bonds for the rebuilding
of the bridges in the city cannot be
carried as long as a two-thirds vote
is required, those back of the move
ment favoring the reconstruction of
the bridges now propose to carry
such an election by amending the
charter, and the city attorney has
been instructed to draw up an ordi-
nance calling an election for the
purpose, and present it to the coun-
Gil soon.
TwO-Thirds Vote Too Much.
At both the prior elections there
was majority vote in favor of issu-
ing the bonds for the rebuilding of
the bridges, but when it came to a
two-thirds vote t election was lost
by a narrow margin. Believing that
it is necessary for the welfare of the
city that the bridges be rebuilt those
favoring it will submit the question
to the people again soon, but not on
the two-third plan, but by the major
ity plan, by means of an amendment
to the charter.
What the Plan Is.
This amendment to the charter
will authorize the council to issue
bonds for the rebuilding Of the
bridges. AS an amendment to the
charter only requires a majority
vote, the question of issuing the
bonds under this plan will require no
more, while should 1t be submitted
to the people at special election,
as before, two-thirds vote would be
necessary, and defeat would probably
again be the result.
Just how much the issue will be
or the rate Of interest, are questions
which have not yet been determined
