ANOTHER SAD JOKK KOU
CKXTRAL OKKtiOX.
Here's the Columbia Southern
alreily out with its Bcmi-aniiual
rexirt again about the proposed
extension of it line. The second
report for the year in out a little
early. It wasn't due until some
time in January, hut Central Ore
gon has long since become ac
customed to eccentricities of ways
and means.
Dear, dear, what are we roming
to! Or rather, where i this Co
lumbia Southern extension busi
ness, which crops up as regularly
M warts on a turnip, going to jam
us? Surely not up against a rail
road! Because that would he put
ting the joke with Central Oregon,
while all along, these many years
past, Central Oregon has been the
butt of the Columbia Southern's
jokes.
Of course the semi-annual re
port this month bears an ear-mark
of authenticity Mr. E. H. Hirri
man. Well and good. That fact
furnished grounds for the use of
some red ink and a few colums of
space that might not otherwise
have been easy to fill. But Mr.
Kar-Mark made his statements at
the Arlington club. Bad to worse.
Only the few who were present
know the contents of the glasses,
and many a phantastic air castlr
has been builded with the aid of
Angelica. And then, besides, after
it was all over with, Mr. Harri
nian said that what pasetl at the
banquet was "rather private and
as he had a good time too much
much importance" should not be
attached to anv statements made
either by myself or others, a they
were probably made in jest."
There it is, all i. a nut shell and
deductions must be made accord
ingly. Down here in Central Oregon
there is a large Missourian imputa
tion. Every time the Columbia
Southern issues its semi-annual
extension statement that portion
of the population increases. After
a while we'll all claim Missouri as
a birth place, and an imperative
demand for the "showing process"
will be in vogue. At present the
latent Columbia Southern exten-
past, present and future.
