Wednesday mnrnine a delegation of

Mr. O’ Brien was called upon at the
ap|>ointcd hour, and gave the delega
tion considerable of bis valuable time.
He asked that complete and concise
data regarding the present freight
business from this point, and also
prospective business be furnished him,
and stated that he would send a man
from hi* traffic department to assist
in the matter when asked for. When
this is completed, he will take the
matter lip witli other officials, and see
whet can be done toward securing n
spur from West Htayton.
Tiie delegation also called upon Guy :
W. Talbot, manager of the Oregon j
Electric. Mr. Talbot gave us the !
"glad hand,” hut stated that there
was no use in talking to hitu about a
line from their road into Htayton this
year.
Tiie plans for the work to be carried
out by tiie Oregon Electric are laid for
this year— building a spur from Wood-
burn to West Woodburn, tiie exten- j
sion of their Hillsboro line and work
necessary to completing their line j
from Salem to Portland will take all j
theii time and attention. He told us
there was positively no use in Btayton
talking with him before next year.
W e rode back to Salem on the Ore
gon Electric, and the way the coun
try along that line is being developed
is wonderful. If the people of Stayton
and vicinity knew what an electric
line front this place to Salem would
do for their territory, they would dig

selves.
