The state board of portage commissioners met at Salem and reviewed L. & Cook’s March report for the Celilo portage railway. March earnings were 260.87 with operating costs 851.30. The river stood at 95.88 feet, about six feet above low water, enabling boats to Lewiston. a 500 ton Portland to Lewiston passage via canal was touted, while down freight could yield profit. Discussion covered gasoline launches at Big Eddy, plans by Dallas merchants to send the Steamer Simmons there daily, and potential six to eight passenger plus freight engines. The carrier hoped for increased passenger business and fish hauling along the line, though weekly operation constrains earnings.
