THAT KAILHOAD.
We are not saying very much
bout railroad to Fall City, but
ercry word we utter is but half ol
what might be saliL We are apt
to underestimate the advantage
and overestimate the difficulty ot
souring a railroad. There are
those who argue that if a railroad
wilt pay to Fall City that plenty
of capital is ready to cngmre in the
enterprise, and therefore a bonus is
not necessary. Iu the first place
there is not plenty of capital ready
to engage in such enterprise, and
eoondly the capital to build a rail
road must be obtained from abroad,
in other words, borrowed. If a
railroad to or from any eertaiu
point is of no advautage to the po
pie, then it la pretty certain that
it will not pay to build. If the
people want to prove that they
want a railroad no better way can
be fouud than to ask capital to in
Test We may believe a railroad
to Falls City will pay handsomely
on the iuvettiuout but Mill our
judgmeut may bo poor on the sub
ject, but if the people clamor for a
road, and are willing to buck their
demands by something substantial
it would be backing the judgment
of individuals by that of a commit
nity.
A railroad to Falls City would
have many advantages. Since nt
Independendonce is both water ami
rail for transportation of lumber
and other products, so at this point
would be the distributing point for
all the supplies of the hundreds of
men who would be at work in the
mountains, logging, milling, farm
ing, etc., while there is no doubt ot
the fact that Falls City would feci
an immense impetus from the build
ing of the road yet our town would
always keep iu advance. While
now our people live off each other,
the farmer's trade supporting the
merchant, and the merchant the
printer, upon the advent of a rail
road manufactories would be built
tlnoe a supply of material would
always be at hand, and thus labor
given to residents, and a non pro
ducing class make larger markets
for the farmer and merchant It
scarcely seems necessary to say
that we must have a railroad to
Falls City to assure us of prosperity
which will be permanent. Prop
erty values will double and treble,
business will increase and multiply'
and our population largely increase.
The trade of southern Polk would
be centralized at Independence,
and so centralized that it could
never be diverted elsewhere. We
feel certain that our people want
the railroad, but whether they see
any advantage in having it this
year in preference to next we know
not One of the greatest i nceuti ves
to the Southern Pacific railroad for
finishing the extension from Cor
vail is to Junction City, will be the
offer of freight such us lumber,
posts, shingles, for Salt Lake, Den
ver, etc. Millions of feet are now
hipped there from Washington
and California, and the rate would
be almost the same from here.
There is a grand future in store for
us, and who knows what might oc
cur to prevent the building of the
road next year. Nothing is in the
way now. Let us strike while tho
iron is hot

Since Oregon contains !M,50
miles of territory besides lakes etc.
and according to the net assess
ment of 1890, returns the sum of
1114,177,788 in taxable property
' it follows that the average wealth
per square mile is over $1207.

STATE NORMAL SCHOOL.
As we go to press news comes to
ns that on Wednesday evening at
eight o'clock the Normal bill,
which places the Monmouth Normal
school directly in the charge of the
state of Oregon became a law. It
was very close carrying by only
one vote. That one vote stood be
tween victory and defeat. The
people of Polk county have cause
of rejoicing as well as the whole
state of Oregon, for the cause of ed
ucation would have received a se
vere blow had a step backward been
taken in doing tiwuy with uoriuul
rtdioola, which seemed to b the

On Friday tvtulng.Dth, a meeting of
the Independence llulldlng and Umu

the Willamette U.l EataU Co. for
the purMi of loaning what money
w a on hand. Il was Anuounoeil that
flOOO could lw loaned. The bidding
commenced at twenty month Interest
In advaiH- and finally reached eighty
ulu months, that being the highest

couteipjeutly Mr. Whlteaker pay too
a year Into the treasuy ou til tun
share. It I estimated that In about
eight year the stock will la? at par,
eouetUeully after payliglu f-tsuthr
Interest compounded will make It III)
therefor he simply returns hi stock
ami gets his fltloU uot having paid l
