Hammond Holds Key To Central Oregon Railroad Race
President A. B. Hammond of the Corvallis & Eastern may push into Central Oregon next year, possibly reaching Laidlaw via Sisters and Tumalo and timing ahead of rivals Oregon Trunk and Harriman lines. Hammond, worth about 15 million, holds leverage to claim the first Central Oregon field and must move quickly to beat Neilson’s Oregon Trunk Line.
