MARSHALL CANYON
BIG UNDERTAKING

Spokane, Wash.--A most difficult
feat of engineering construction will
be attempted in the Marshall canyon
when the $1,000,000 contract, let by
the North Coatst railroad company to
Watson, Flagg & Standifer company
of Portland, Ore, is undertaken. 1t
is proposed to build an entire new line
through the canyon, involving a great
amount of rock work and a feature
o. the contract is the stipulation that
the present Northern Pacific tracks
and the Spokane, Portland & Seattle
rails. which traverse the canyon,
shall not be disturbed while the new
work is under way.
The contract calls for work through
the Marshall canyon, including IS
miles Of roadbed building from the
west city limits of Spokane to Cheney,
Wash.
Robert E. Strahorn, vice president
of the Washington-O Oregon Railroad
and Navigation company, had many
conferences with high officials of the
Northern Pacific and Spokane, Port
land & Seattle railroad companies to
gain the rlght-of-way through the
Marshall canyon, which was well talk
en- up by the two roads
C. NJ. Standifer, who negotiated the
deal for his firm, said the contract
called for most difficult work for the
entire distance Of IS miles, this be-
ing especially so through the Marshall
pass, adding:
1--WE will establish an office in Spo-
kane at once and the entire work
will be- handled from here We will
have five steam shovels at work be-
sides many dinky trains and other
equipment Our company will estab-
lish shop somewhere-along the line
of construction where all tools will be
sharpened, cars built and general re-
pairs made. l expect 500 men will be
put at work on this undertaking"

Mira Ali has resided in the Unit

for five has been connected with the
diplomatic service Of this country. He
lectured at Harvard and at the Uni

has endeared him to the United

miration for all things American. His
wife is handsome young woman Of
old American lineage and was before
her marriage Florence Breed, daugh-
ter Of Mr.. Francis w. Breed and Mrs.
Mrs. Alice Ives Breed of Boston. She
met her husband during his Harvard
days when she was delvng into the
