Three Roads In Snake Canyon Engineering Marvel
Three parallel routes across Snake River Canyon face extreme costs and perilous grades. The Portland & Seattle and North Coast lines climb cliff edges 500 to 700 feet high, with the Spokane region as the staging area for their Snake River grade meet. Trains would run within sight of each other on two shelves as upper and lower roadbeds approach. Sealed bids invite remodeling of Eureka Lodge No. 32 brick building in Pendleton and a reinforced concrete sidewalk along Main and Alt Streets. A spider bite anecdote and Denver population notes follow in the issue.
