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.

RAILROAD FOR BEND
Either today or tomorrow a crew of
O. 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

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. Hood River

Echo, Feb. 6. 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. -

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. Was a
crater with raised edges three-quarters
of a mile in dlaoieter and about f 1 feet
