How many rail road lines ure projected from Kugene to I lie coast and who Is back of them has become a matter or puzzling guesswork. Some persons who are winching developments hero seem to think this latest move another step toward the coieuininatlon of the Hill plans. That system lias a road al most completed now from Portland lo Tillamook, and seems to be pre paring to build to Florence anil on to Coos Buy. "On Thursday, as menilonetl In tho (iunrd of that date, a crew or twenty surveyors left for Wildcat Creek, In the Sluslaw country, to make a permanent location along the line of the Halph Hunt survey.
