TUB OBUQON HUOUT LINK.
From a party familiar with thu pro
gress of work on the Oregon Short
Line from Granger station on the U.
P. main line to Baker City , Oregon ,
wo learn that its early completion is a
lottlod fact ,
The track is already laid for ft dia-
tttuoo eighty-two miloa west of Gran-
jor. Track laying lias commenced in
earnest from that point , and is going
down at the rate of about ono milo per
day. In track-laying they use Moore's
improved patent track-laying appara
tus , which consists simply of a trough
or sided track in which are many
rollers , over which tics and rails are
sent to the front. This ia attached to
one side of the fl.U-ears , 10 that ties
and rails can bo placed on the rollers ,
and then shoved along rapidly by met
either on the ilitts or walking
by the side on the ground. Ai
the front end of the train , this
track or chulo extends forward quite
a distance , being stippoitcd by a crane.
As fast aa the tics are sent to the front
they arc taken by men and put it
place ; then the rails are dropped and
apikru , nnd the train pushed over the
rails.just laid , so aa to bp ready for
the next length. The engine is at the
opposite end of the train , and pushes
the car back as fast as the rails are
laid , until the twenty or thirty cars
nro unloaded. This machinery savci
hauling the ties ahead by teams , and
is economical in work , especially ai
there are many places along the roiu
where teams could not reach the lin
of erode.
From Granger it in 1-19 miles to
Soda Spring * , upon which the grad
has boon completed , eighty-two mile
ot track laid and many of the bridge
put in place. From Soda Springs to
1'ortnou' , where the line crosses th
Utah & Northern , it iesixty-six milcp
making a total of 215 miles iron
Granger. On thia gap between Sodi
Springs and Pocatello graders are now
at work nnd already a portion ia com
ploted. West of the Utah and North
urn the track ia laid sixteen miles , nnc
in about three weeks will bo completed
plotod to American Fall * , six mile
further. The track west of the Utal
& Northern is laid with broad gunge
ties and rails placed to accommodate
narrow guago rolling stock , and when
the line is completed from Granger to
Pocatello the track westward will bo
widened to standard guago.
West of Bnako river graders are
strung out for a distance of fifty
miles , and between 700 and 800 lonm :
are at work. This portion of the road
ia over the desert , there buing a
stretch of eighty miles between Amor
jean Fulls and Little Wood river hav
ing no water , and honoo men am
teams have to bo supplied by hauling
water from thcso two rivers. At prce
out the contractors , Mossfe. Collins &
Stevens , have about 2,000 , teams aw
3,000 men employed , and nro itnxiou
to got nil the men and teams they oat
for pushing their work.
Orders have bean issued by th
management to push the gradin
through to Baker City aa rapidly a
poesiblo , nnd this will bo done. Th
engineers uro locating the line , keep
ing nil the timD fur ahead of the gr.id
era , and there is now an ontrjy shown
by the company unsurpassed by auy
former period.
