things
you can t believe, but keep your eyes open and don’t let
yourself be surprised too much. And another thing!
The rail road, neither deep water on the Siuslaw bar,
nor any other one thing alone will bring a g reat develop
ment to th>8 country, any more than one man will do it.
When such a task is left to one man or a single influence,
the tendency is for th at person or influence to become
selfish,—very selfish. No it will take everything and1
everybody to accomplish w hat ought to be done in the
next few years, and you should have a share in Jthe
work. Now don’t forget two steel bands have reached
