tion oatfit including a ateam shovel.
The shovel was Uken to Elgin tnie

linokley li also here and ataua that
the contract baa been let lor tbe Brit
eighteen miles, and that tbe contractor
are men who bare bad years ol
experience in railroad building and
the extension will aoon be a reality,
Mr. P A Worthlngton, tbe right ol
way agent, ia also on the ground, and
it ia evident that the O R & N 00m

General Manager O'Brien aaid la
Portland: 'We ahall secure a right oi
w lor the entire distance from Elgin
to Joseph at tbe earliest possible
moment and build this line as soon as
aa can. The road will not stop at the
mouth ot the Wallowa river bnt will be

In commenting on tbe railway
situation, the Portland Journal says

not disDOsed to again ally themselves
