The Portland Journal savs P" "Yollow Jacket" IViutors IN TIME TO COME. The Item! Bulletin in rather an nntisinistic manner convevs the information that the Corvallis & Kaslem railroad is the line to which the territory of the Colum hit Southern has recently been transferred; and that a report indicating the extension of the former road is current. It is also intimated that the C. Jt E. has gone over to the Chicago, Mil wnukee & St. Paul. While it is no doubt a fact that a report of this kind has again lienneated the atmosphere, the foundation for the allegations is totally obscure. Reports of this kind have been current for period of twenty years. They have been instrumental in build ing up the district through which the proposed lines were to be built and have served their purpose of keeping both the population and enthusiani at de sirable points. But further than that they have failed miserably in resuming tangible form. Both the Corvallis & Eastern and the Columbia Southern have used the same tactics, the latter to a more marked degrea than the former. It is a well known fact that Harriman controls both of these mads, and a failure to extend the Columbia Southern does not necessarily mean that the valley road will be put through the Central Oregon region. Nor is it probable that Harriman, in view of the efforts which have been made by the Goulds for several years to secure a Pacific coast out let, will be likely to let the control ling interest in the Corvallis A Eastern pass into the hands of an eastern road. Such a move would be nothing less than a heavy blow wJijlW.skatififttieS rtfirtnV state. The Gould lines have al ready forced an entrance into Salt Lake City and are looking now for a desirable point in the Pacific Northwest which can be made a terminus. Under the circumstan ces the Harriman syndicate, which has the traffic of the entire state of Oregon within its grasp, is not likely to let slip an opportunity to increase the revenue of its coffers. Central Oregon will have a rail road whenever the quantity and size of its productions are such that freight teams can no longer be brought into remunerative service, and indications point to ward the extension of the Corval lis & Eastern when that time has been reached. Horse flesh is a ' semi-satisfactory method of trans portation under present condi tions, but the development of the country, with its accompanying larger products, will soon relegate that mode of locomotion to the back ground. Not until then is the east and west line likely to be extended and even then it will be in the hands of the Harriman syndicate which can give it an eastern terminus at a point on the I An exchange remarks that Mr. 'Cleveland mav asiirc himself that Wurzweiler d Uhomson 83 securing of . desirable location U,I talker, and that be work.- bis ! fiS the building of railroads to it., Ewy ,.m ( , JJ nver, agrees , Scribe !

The Prineville Journal reports the killing of sixty-five sheep by masked men who appeared at a camp in Crook county, and after the slaughter of that nuinlier told the herder to move on or they would exterminate the entire band. It is not necessary to inquire who is to blame for sheep being here or cattle there. No matter be no justification for these murderous assaults on innocent animals who were on the range because they were driven thither by men who, though to blame, if blame is to lie located, are them stives permitted to go unpunished. The utter brutality of this process of deliberately murdering innocent animals in order to punish their owners is too fiend ish to be properly characterized. The fact that the wretches always make these attacks while .masked indicates the degraded estimate they themselves place upon the act. A man who had the sem blance of right on his side would go to the owner of the offending animals and settle with him, but a coward will cover what counte nance he has and attack the help less anima's in order to assert himself. Offering rewards is a move in the riaht direction, but the Governor should press a little further "on the enemy's works" lest we become Coloradoized in some sections of our fair state.

Thelnt'Vt'r justihable-perhaps but if Columbia Southern in the mean- 0'e of these coward! r and brutal time will serve the only purpose for which it was built-that of a local road. And the only agency which can stimulate the building of the Con-allis & Eastern ahead of the country's development is the road, generally conceded as Hill's building from The Dalles to Dufur. That line may encroach upon the territory claimed by Harriman to such an extent that he will see fit to alter his plan of! aciion, nut tlie time is so far re moved from the present prospects that there is nothing exciting in its possible course of development.
