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

A LITTLE TOO RADICAL.
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.
This condition of affairs cannot go
011 indefinitely. Lynch law is

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!

The disposition of home stock
men to protect their ranges,
where such is possible, by common
fencing, nuy lead to the right solu
tion of the vexed question. Said
one owner who was driving bis
exhausted herd through the dusty
lanes of Fox vally, "I don't know
where I'm going; I started to the
mountains, but I can't reach them.
I have already paid out more then
TOO for grai-s I never got, and
when I see a rancher coming up to
me on a lope, I pull out my check
book and ask him bis name."
This goes to the root Of the matter.
