ROBERT E.STRAHORNTALKS OF HIS PLANS

Tells Something of nans tor NorthCoast Railway (or Immedi-

ate Future.

During one of the brief intervalsbetween Visits to the Sound in whichhe was in North Yakitna last week,Robert K. Strahorn t;ave to a Heraldreporter some facts iv regard to theplant of himself and associates Inconnection with the North Coast rail-road. As to the system of steamrailways to (over the valley and con-Bed it With the coast cities - an in-dependent line that cannot In ion-.Bon be connected With the Northern!Pacific Mr. Stranoru talked very;freely ami in 11 manner that con-vinced those to whom he talked ofhis sincerity and determination tocarry out a long cherished plan, liesaid in part:

"The idea expressed in as fewwords as possible, is to ((instruct andoperate a system of steam railwaysrunning from tue Bunnyslde countryacross the mountains, with its coastobjective point In the most favorable ilocation now offered. It seems to bethe belief of many that the project isnew, or bus developed recently. ThisIs erroneous, however, for lie havelieen working steadily for the pastyear and a hall It lias been con-sidered advisable to withhold ourplans or Intentions from the publicfor a great many reasons, and I can-not give you any Information as tofuture plans for any except the line1 have here described.

"About a year and a half ago Ientertained a project similar to Ihepresent one. except that the powerto be employed was electricity in-stead of steam. Then local capi-talists came in my office in Spokaneand begged me not to go ahead onthe lines contemplated on theground! that the} had an electricline project formed, with which ourplans. If carried out, would greatlyinterfere I had my companyformed and the money raised —plenty of ii —bin at their earnest so-licitation I withdrew froiß the field.Those same parties are now showinga very unfriendly spirit towards ourcompany, hut neither this fact northeir plans, if the latter are com-pletely i arrled out. will workagainst üb. to our Injury, in Fact,if the electric lines they propose tobuild are tiuiii and operated, ii willbenefit rather than injure us. Ourswill In' a wide gaiye, steam railway,and ii will go through some of tlierichest lann lands, the best gracingsections, and the Bnesi timber beltsand rich mineral sections in all theBOrtbwest I may add that our en- 1

Bineers and all who have been over!the surveyed line a«ree that it ls;through some of the grandest sceneryt)-p routine!!! possesses."No one will question the statement

that the construction of this road.even if It began and ended With theline proposed, will lie of inestimablebenefit to the city of North Vakima,A really competing line, and it mostassuredly will bo that, is what thiscity and COUntJ needs more thananything else, i think it a conser-vative eslimale to place the popu-lation of this city at 20,000 withinfive yeari after the line is in opera-tion. The towns along the roadthat would be brought by it in closertouch with North xaklnui are grow-ing and the country around (hem lalieins settled up rapidly. The moreof growth and set I lenient in all pailsof the state, and particularly, itseems, in Ihis part, the more needthere is for a competing line of rail-road."

Mr. Btrathorn was asked if the newload had any connection or if it wasIntended that it would nave any withthe Chicago, Milwaukee 4Bt. Paul,nr Ihe Taroma <v Kastcrn roads. Hedeclined to say anything on this

| phase of the subject, anil merelycalled attention to the fact that thecompany organised to build theNorth Const railway was one finan-cially able to carry out the project,independent of any other "backing."

"The organisation of the companyhas just been effected," he said."and it is as follows: Krank A. Dtid-

, ley. an able and well known rail-road man and capitalist of NiagaraFails, x. y., is president; I am thevice president and manager; a. g.Smith is secretary and treasurer.These are all members of the hoardof trustees, which also includes H.
