S. F. Thinks Hill
Coming Thru Oregon

Commenting on newspaper stories
sent out from San Francisco last
week that there will be something
doing shortly in providing a direct
connection between Portland and San
Francisco via the Spokane, Portland
& Seattle railway system, the Stra-
horn line from Bend to Lakeview and
thence over the existing line from
there to a junction with the Western
Pacific, Fridays San Francisco
Chronicle says:
"Rumors and belief in them per-
sist to the effect that what are known
as the Hill railroads are at all times
looking to an entrance to this city,
which they will effect at the first
favorable opportunity. The Hill
roads are as certain to reach San
Francisco as the Central line was to
reach Hill territory in the northwest.
What is sauce for the goose will be
found sauce for the gander. The
goose has got hers. The gander will
get his.
But aside from the natural and
healthful rivalry of railroad systems,
a public necessity will be served by
direct line from this port through
undeveloped territory to connections
in the west and northwest. 1t will
give the natural outlet to the prod
ucts of the rich country opened up
and give quicker and cheaper service
than now exists between this port
and the Lake Superior region. 1t
will do what the existing steamer line
never can do. for bulk freight can
not move in that way.
THE map publish in yesterdays
Chronicle shows that the natural line
of approach is through Bend and
Lakeview, Ore, to a junction with
the Nevada, California & Oregon, and
entrance to this city over the West
ern Pacific rails. The Nevada, Cali
fornia & Oregon road is now being
broad-gauged to a connection with
the Western Pacific, and with that
accomplished to Lakeview there will
remain only link of 1870 miles to
complete the connection. Nobody
can be made to believe that this con
nection will not be made.
at is made more certain by the
situation of the Western Pacific,
Ashland tidings. [volume] (Ashland, Or.) 1876-1919, 1917-01-29

which needs traffic which Hill con-
nection would give it. The financial
condition of the Western Pacific, al
though now perfectly healthful, has
only the healthfulness of the infant.
1t is ready to grow, and cannot but
be benefited by close association with
such systems as the Great Northern
and Northern Pacific. 1t is assumed
that Western Pacific bonds and its
floating stock will drift into the
hands of Hill interests, if they are
not already there. The outcome
which is indicated would be good for
both railroads and for San Francis
CO."

a gold-mounted handle. Dr. Carna-
han responded. Rev. w. J. Douglass
of the NJ. E. church was then called
upon and brought congratulations
and fluctuations from neighboring
church friends. Delightful refresh
ments were served by the ladies and
a very pleasant evening, spent in con-
versation and good cheer, all too soon
came to a close. DR.. Carnahan has
just rounded out three years of serv-
ice as pastor of the local church.

leak somewhere. But it was none the
less a very pleasant and happy time
in DR.. and Mrs. Parsons hospitable
home. The table was most beauti-
fully laden in the dining room. The
piece dc resistance was chicken, and
since all were musical people, the at
tack q believe that is the musical
term was in perfect harmony, and
the way those good things disap
peared-well, it was a caution.
DR.. Carnahan, on behalf of the
choir, members of the choral society
and some friends about the city, pre-
sented Mr. and Mrs. Rasor with a
handsome travelling bag, to which
Mr.. Rasor responded in a few we'll
chosen words.
The evening was passed in happy
mood, and all regret that our choir
and church and the musical circles
of our city are to lose these very
estimable people. Mr.. Rasor goes to
take further studies in music, and the
best wishes of all go with them for
future success and the hope that
sometime they will come back to us
again.
