HOBBS, Proprietor Headquarters for Good Things to Eat South 6th St. REDM OND Construction by the Harriman interests of a railroad from Vale across the state east and west is now almost an' assured fact. Prominent officials of the system while on a recent trip through Oregon looked carefully into the matter, and have decided that it is a feasible proposition, and would be a big saving in mileage and expense to construct such a line. There are several places where the line from the east could con nect with Harriman roads run ning south from the Columbia river. One of the connections that has been given prominence by the officials is to have the line connect at Redmond with the Deschutes road. It is claimed that with this connection the road would have practically a down hill haul from this city to Portland, and a long distance could be saved. Not only would this proposed line of road eliminate much difficult trackage, but it would pierce a productive portion of the state that at present is without railroad facilities. That the road would be a paying proposition from the start is a conclusion that has been drawn from all calculations that have been made on the sub ject. It is estimated that the pro posed new line via Redmond would reduce the distance from Portland and the east nearly 100 miles. The curvature between Umatila and Huntington would be avoid d and many of the grades on that portion of the present line would be overcome. The construction of this line would leave several important cities in Eastern Oregon, includ ing Baker City. La Grande and Pendleton off the main road, but it is pointed out that the business of that portion of the state is de veloping so rapidly anyway that a train service equally as frequent as that now provided for through traffic will be requir ed to handle the local freight and passenger business. The Spokesman has always held that Redmond was the logi cal point for the Harriman sys tem to connect with their east and west road, and the prediction may be verrified before long. SISTERS J. W. Dennis is putting some improvements on his place. David Roach driving for Robt. Smith, pulled into Sisters Satur day evening with an eight horse load ot' merchandise and says the roads out of Shaniko were very !>ad. Clarence Branton was over the first of the week from Redmond, with a party of land seekers, who went away expressing lhem-| solves well ¡»leased with the Sis-. ters country.

I* I'ist haa completed haul ing the lumber for his new feed yard, and his workmen, under Mr. Mcrkell are making rapid progress on the building. The K. R. news sounds good to the people of Sisters. W. F. Edmondson and family were transacting business in Sis ters two days this week. Nels Koopang, who is trapping at Horse Like west of Three Sisters mountains, came out Sat urday. making the trip of thirty- five miles on snow shoos in twelve hours.

Harvey and Dean Cyrus re turned a few days ago from n trip through California and they say there is no place like home. ft is understood that the i rook County Water. Light A: Power Co. owners of the power site at Cline Falls, on the Deschutes fiver four miles west of this city, is having plans made for devdop- ing the power at that point, and as soon as the plans are fully worked out machinery will be in stalled and a transmission line run from the Falls to this city. The project as now outlined contemplates putting in machin- ery of sufficient capacity to gen erate enough power to supply all this section of the county with lights and power, and run a transmission line to Prinevile. twenty miles from here, to suply that city also with light and power. As a project of this kind takes some time in getting all the de- Uala worked out. it is estimated that the plant will not be ready- for service before next fall or winter. The Spokesman has it from good authority that this project is going to be put through by the above company, for they realize that there is a large field here to be covered, and with the unlimit ed power they can generate at a small cost, they see no obstacle in the way of getting the plant in working order as aoon as pos sible. It has been stated to The Spokesman that lights and ¡low er can be furnished at such a small cost, when the Falls plant «sin operation, that no one can afford to be without lights in their business houses and homes. There are a number of concerns in Redmond that will take power Auto BreakH as soon as the new system is in Boy’s Arm stalled and can get a 24-hour Earl Snell, son of Wm.

The boy will be laid up as far as the use of his arm is concerned, for five or six weeks.
