Railroad to Coast
Under Construction

The Twohy Bros. Construction
Company has taken over the munich
pal railroad from Grants Pass tc
Wilderville and work will be started
Immediately for the extension of the
road into the Illinois Valley. The
road is to be completed and in oper-
alton to Hays hill within six months
from date, and forty miles of the line
must be completed within time limit
of forty months. The municipal rail-
road of ten miles is to be decided. to
the Twohys and a mortgage taken
back to the city, this mortgage being
subject to cancellation when the
terms of the agreement have been
met.
This road means the immediate
opening OF a great area of heretofore
partially developed and totally unde-
veloped land and the development of
numbers of mines which have not
paid before on account of lack of
transportation facilities.
While present plans include the
building of forty miles of road, the
Twohy brothers state that the road
will be extended through to the coast
probably within the next three years.
The contractors are now in San
Francisco ordering supplies and ma
chinery. Work is to commence i'm
mediately upon their return.
In regard to labor Robert Twohy
told the Grants Pass newspaper men
that while laborers could be hired in
Portland at 50 per day, they would
pay $2.25 and would favor local men.
In an interview Thursday he said:
1T is well within the range of pos
sibility that $500 men will be en-
ployed in the near future. My father
spoke this afternoon of putting $500
men on the job, but l have been bit
more conservative. We are deter.
mined, however, to reach the tonnage
upon which the road must depend fol-
its profitable operation at the quick.
est possible date. l want to see
those mines that l visited for the
first time yesterday employing hun.
dreds of men, as l know they will be
as soon as transportation is provided
for the ore"
This road means much to the val
ley. Not only will the building OF
the road and the opening UP of the
mines and numbering mean the en-
ployment of many men, but the valley
will eventually be given an outlet to
the coast and freight will have to
travel only ninety miles instead OF
$50 to reach an ocean shipping point.

o. A. c. Band Off
For Exposition

Thirty young men who succeeded
in making the band at the Oregon
Agricultural College will leave with
Captain Beard for the exposition at
San Francisco about the first of June.
1t Is expected that the trip will be
made as the official band for the Ore
gon building, in which case the band
will give series of concerts on the
Oregon grounds in addition to per-
forming as one of the official bands
of the exposition. The experience and
success of the boys on their recent
tour of the state have given their
leader great deal of confidence in
their ability to acquit themselves
creditably both to themselves and to
the state of Oregon. The band will
remain in the exposition city about
three weeks.

ARGUS TELLS THE STORY
Mount Vernon Newspaper Brought
First IntimatiOn of What Recent
Trip TO the Northwest Involved.
fFrom Marshfield Record. }

(From Marshfield Record)
A copy of the Mount Vernon Argus
has been received by the Record and
in it there is found the following,
which will be of interest to Marsh
field people:
Frank E. Conway's visit to Mount
Vernon last week recalls the towns
peoples first glimpse of him about
ten years ago. He was first seen rid
ing a bicycle; he was dressed in
Khaki and gave the impression that
he was just out of the army. He
had been a member of the militia in
Seattle, where he worked at the trade
of electrician.
With few hundred dollars he
launched into the real estate busi-
ness and one of the first things he
did was to lay out an addition on the
hill in the bend of the Great North
ern railroad in the north end of the
city. He built houses on it, disposed
of them on time payments and other
wise sold the property. This having
proved a profitable venture, he
bought another tract on the hill and
named it Conway's addition. This
tract was handled in the same way.

derful faculty of being able to dis

cash with lightning rapidity. He left

thousands of dollars
To Enter New Field.
In an interview Mr.. Conway stated
to a representative of the Argus that
he was going to abandon the specu-
lative for a more certain field. He
said he was contemplating the organ
ization of bonding and mortgage
company with a capital stock of
100000 to operate in the Pacific
coast states, and that several promi-
nent local men will be interested with
him. He sees great future in this
line on the coast as capital will be
required to develop the great natural
resources yet untouched. It is his
idea to interest eastern and foreign
capital for development work on the
coast to become available as soon as
conditions adjust themselves. Mr..
Conway, while in Mount Vernon, or
ganized the F. e. Conway Company,
which is incorporated under the laws
of the state for $4,000. He is presi-
dent and general manager of the COM
pany, which is still going concern.
Mr.. Conway earned a reputation
for hustle such as would be the envy
of many man and in keeping with
his fame he came in like lion and
went out like lion.
