Now that Oregon has taken another step forward and will be known in the future aa the "Beaver" state, it behooves the citizens to aid their local commercial clubs as development leagues in carrying out the principal of the beaver in every detail. . It is a well known fact that the habits of the beaver are those which might be profitably patterned after and carried in to execution by our citizens, more espe- pecially the members of commercial clubs or developement organizations. Eastern Oregon as a whole has been somewhat divided heretofore by common decision but thanks be to all, such is not now tha case.

Would it not be easier for the various counties to send a delegate to La Grande rather than Pendleton?

R. ft N. surveyors will pass through The Dalles on their way to Dea . Gnutas and their advent into Eastern Oregon is most important We have heard much about a railroad Into the Bend country, and it looks very much as though ws are about to have it, the O. R. & N. having a finger in the pie. . - ' The Des Chutes has incorporated with a capital stock of $100,000.00, and if the projected route following ' the Des Chutes river is found to be practicable, they promise to have 180 miles of road, from the mouth of the river to Bend, completed in about a year. This road will be the longest feeder the Harriman system has pushed into Cen tral Oregon. For seventy miles it will parallel the Columbia Southern, but will draw freight from a section too far re moved to be served by that line. It will bear the same relation to the main line that the Columbia Southern and Condon and Heppner branches de, but will be twice as long as either of them.-?Palles Chronicle. (OlNdDENCf. SAVED HIS HE Somebody is going to get hurt That is not all, some one ia going to be killed if they do not keep their hands off the elec tric light wire. Some young fellow cut a tree on top of the hill the other dey and some of the limbs caught the wires. This young man instead of notifying the electric light people as he should, took hold of both wires and pulled them loose from the tree. Had he done so a few moments later or a few moments earlier he would have been instantly killed by the current but it just happened that the current was shut off for a few moments while the lineman were fixing the wire and his life saved thereby.

Reports are to the ef fect that the Washington & Columbia River Railway company, who had sur veyors in the field some months ago. are agitating the railroad which was 'talked of being built from a point a few miles from Helix to Stage Gulch, and north of Echo, entering town through a ravine near th flouring mill. It will then jrun on to Rhea siding on the Heppner branch Gooseberry postoffice will be struck, then through to the south fork ' of the John Day river near Spray, through to Prine- ville. It is believed that the ' road will be extended from there southward -to connect with a road coming from Califor nia into Oregon. It is reported on goqd authority that some steps .will soon be taken to carry out the building of this road. - A PRESENT fOR THE PRESIDENT The new town of Roosevelt on the north bank, opposite Arlington, is on land owned by T.

Here, j"a broad plain, over an area of about ve miles in diameter, had been scat- red one or two thousand masses of me a lite iron, the fragments varying in weight from half a ton to a fraction of an ounce. There was little doubt these masses formed part of a meteoric show- er, although no record existed as to when the fall took place. " Curiously enough, near the center where most of the meteorites' had been found.
