track of dark complesioned etranger,
,nd if tbt chap lan't unusually nimble
be will find fcmneeif in Mr. Sweetland'a

It la all over the fact that Mr. Sweet
land bought two cowa and a four-monilia-ld
calf from a man laat Friday after
noon, paying him tha caah market price
J or the beef. The cattle were placed in
corral to fatten up and await the time
for slaughter, but on Wedneaday after
noon Win. Penes), of Tolo, came into
Urant'a I'aaa in queat of three head of
toldn calUa, anal fenaid them In Mr.
Sweetiand't corral. The Urant'a I'aaa
maker ol good aaumge then underatood
jo an Inatant that he had been buncoed.
The man he had bought the cattle of
waa a cattle thief, and In Texas would
have been tbt chief man In a neck-tie
party juithja twenty-four hourt. The
cattle were give back to their owner
nd driven borne. Tney had been taken
from tht paatura at tht fence farm after
iark.
The etranger and an associate have
fled to parte unknown, but hie track it
being cloaely followed, and it ii very
'likrly that he will be overtaken.

Farmer! and ranchmen who formerly
engaged In other pursuits, later, taking
jup tot dairy business, are doing well.
,It il rather alow beginning, aurting
into dairying, and it cannot be accom
pllahed without time. One mint have
good milch cowa, the flelda formerly
owed with grain muat be converted
into paaturea, and there are other draw
baoka at tht Mart. Considering the
brief time ainoe onr farmer! firat took
up with tha new Industry on acientllic
principles, wonderful advancement bat

there are many email aeparatora and
there la ten timce aa much milk to be ob
tained today aa there waa five Tear a ago.
The price at present paid for butter fat
la about 18 cente per pound. Of courae
it Ii understood that tht price of butter
fat ia governed by the butter market.
Thlt bualneat, from itart to flnlih, la of
.great benefit to the county. It haa been
aid that whan you find a man In tht

TILLAMOOK RAILROAD.
Plana Being Oompleted-Proapeote
Good for Early Beginning.
Plant for tht new ralk-oad to Tilla
mook are fast being consummated, says
tiit Telegram, and according to the pres
ent outlook, there ia likelihood that work
win oe begun during the next summer.
A survey of the entire route has been
made, and tbe probable course deter
mined. Tha bondi have been Issued
and placed to such an extent that the
road la now practically a aura thing.
Portland people art interested in tht
project, and home capital li behind the
enterprise. The road li designed to trav
erse a country entirely unoccupied by
any other road, and will be independent
iroin any 1 Aha roads now entering
Portland. It will have connection with
no line except tbe Southern Pacific,
which it will crosi a short distance from
tbii city. The road has been contem
plated for yean by local capitalists, and
by tbe lines now entering this city, but
no move had been made until the local
company waa organised with tbt view of
building it.
Tbe official! art very reticent in talk
ing about it, and do not disclose the
plane any further than they can help.
It will have a terminal at the union
depot, at Portland, and take a bow
shaped courae toward the north, through
Washington and Tillamook counties,
going direct to Tillamook, thence north
ward to Nehalem, making an opening
for the great volume of products of these
counties. Tillamook ia without doubt
the greatest and beat butter and cheese
producing lection of the Hate, and pos
sibly tbe Northwest. These products
will have a direct passage to Portland,
and thus facilitating it outlet into the
central part of the country. A conserva
tive estimate of the timber in the sec
tion traversed by the road is 42,000,000,
000 feet, which will receive an outlet
through this channel.
The people in the section are enthusi
astic over the enterprise, and hope to
tee the road go through at the earlieat
possible time. It will greatly increase
tht values of property and give an outlet
to product! that are now moved only by
great expenditures. The otflciale hinted
that work may begin at any time,
though a definite statement cannot yet
be made.
