SIDE GLANCES - | St. Paul, June 3.—Forty-one years ago, May 27, 1888, the first Northern Pacific train passed through the first tunnel through the Cascade moun- tains, marking the completion of an enginecring feat accomplished despite almost insurmountable obstacles. Andrew Gibson, superintendent of tie-treating and timber preservation Plants on the Northern Pacific system, today recalled the completion of this “ * tunnel, known as the Stampede tun- + fresh earth . : ri nel. It is located in the Cascade . fe ‘ : ye i mountains about 75 miles east of Se- “th : attle and has a length of 9,844 feet. The contract for driving this bore was awarded to Nelson Bennett, of Ta- coma, January 21, 1886, and the work was commertced on February 13, the same year. The headings met May 3, 1888, and the breasts a week later. A remarkable feature was the ac- curacy with which the engineers worked from the east and the west headings. The alignment, grade, and distance checked almost to the inch. Engineers Were Tested by Job. Mr. Gibson was transit man on the west end during the entire time the tunnel was under construction. “At the time the original location was made for the tunnel,” Mr. Gib- son said, “there was virtually no clear ground anywhere in the neighbor- hood. ‘The mountains were all thickly covered with heavy timber and under- brush.

June 3.—Land settlement in the Northwe: is eadily this year, according to J. M. lughes, land commissioner of the Northern Pacific railway. Farmers are establishing new homes in the west, where desirable land at low price is available. In the Redwater valley of eastern Montana, where the Northern Pacific @ year ago opened to transportation 1,000,000 acres of desirable agricul- tural lands through construction of a 60-mile railroad line, 71 families, with a total of 324 persons, had established themselves between March 1 and May 15. ‘The movement to these lands still continues. Since July 1, 1927, 154 families, with a total of 746 persons, moved into this area alone. tL, operated. There is only about nine miles of mountain grade on the west side of the divide and only six miles on the east side, and the physical conditions are such that even these compar- atively short helper grades could be eliminated by the construction of a tunnel five and one half miles in length. The grade in the tunnel on the east side of the summit is .02, and west of the summit, .074. The tunnel is on a tangent.” Name Makes Workers Strike Mr. Gibson said that Stampede pass, tire eee originally called Garfield pass, was discovered on March 19, 1881, by V. C. Bogue, at that time principal as- sistant engineer of the Northern Pa- cific, with offices at Portland. He told an interesting story of how the name “Stampede pass” originated. “After Mr. Bogue's discovery of the WHY MOTHERS GET GRAY.
