HARR1MAN WORK
IS STAGNATED
Ha Experienced a Change of
Heart All Up and Down
The Line.
There was only one time when
Harriman ever said anything
about Central Oregon that the
people really believed he meant
Not that Harriman believed it
when he said it but that it ex
pressed his intentions toward this
Fection. That was when he said
that all of Central Oregon was not
worth building a railroad into.
Then he proceeded to "bottle it
up" a little tighter. When other
companies made moves toward
constructing a road into this great
empire Harriman got busy with
promises and surveyors and was
going to do the big thing by the
first of last January. But he
hasn't done anything yet, but get
a few "stragetic cinches" along the
Deschutes, and now according to
the Portland Telegram it is all off.
That papersays:
Stagnation twice confounded
now characterizes the Harriman
"activities" throughout the entire
Northwest. Not only has the
"wizard of Wall street,, thrown
down Central Oregon, but he has
undergone a complete change of
heart all up and down the line.
Reports from Seattle intimate in
strongest terms that Harriman
has little or no idea of pushing for
ward his Puget Sound extention
of the Union Pacific. Dispatches
from that city show that it has
been more than a year and a half
since the contract for the $1,500,000
tunnel under that city was awarded
and not a shovelful of earth has
been turned.
liarnman s usual cry is
"weather" when either he or his
lieutenants are asked why no pro
gress is being made on the many
promised projects. Always is the
weather bad.
He has made Oregon the real
' rromised Land." lie nas prom
ised this state more things in the
way of new railroads in the past
five years than an ordinary hard
of
working map of the state would
hold. Building roads into frntral
Oreeon has become a Harriman
state of mind purely a menta
condition. Everv now and then
in his own mind's eye, he build
the Hot Air & Oregon Listern or
the Dreamland Central, the Cos
Bav fe Niehtmire Western, Ue
Deschutes A Dopeville Southern
It has cot so now that there is
common user clause in all
Harriman's promises. They will
fit Central Oregon, Coos Bay, Tilla
mook, Seattle, Tacoma, Gray
Harbor and any other old place
Every time some other railroad
actually does something for this
section of the country, Harriman
comes to bat with a promise. He
did it when the Hills announced
the building of the North Bank
With one hand he promised to d
the square thing by Oregon and
with the other he foueht for two
years to keep the new Hill iine out
of Portland, and did nothing him
self.
About the time it was announced
that the Hill officials would be ou
here in force to assist in thededica
tion of the new water erade line
Harriman came West with another
batch of promises. When Coos
Bay people threatened drastic
measures at a Congress held there
last Summer, Harriman shot a
few glowing promises in that direc
tion. Perhaps more significant
still was the scurrying of the
Harriman people to the "promise
box" when the Oregon Electric
Company announced its invasion
of the sacred preserves of Eward
H. According to the head of the
Union Pacific, he would make the
Harriman railroad map of Oregon
look like a skein of yarn after a
kitten had played with it before he
got through.
It has always been
with Harriman, only
fellow builds while
bluffs.
The organization of a
Charities for Prinevillo
immediate vicinity was
at the home of Mrs. A.
last Satur Jav evening.
Board of
and the
I'rrfoctfd
Thomson
The board
is composed oi Mavor v. r. Stew
art and one representative eacl
from the Ladies Aid societies of the
four church organisations in Prine-
ville. Oflicei s were elected as fob
lows: President, Mrs. Ada P
Milliean (Methodist): vice-prei
.lent, Mrs. Angio" Smith (Chris
tian); secretary, Mrs. raraii
Thomson (Presbyterian); treasurer
Mrs. Effie fell (Baptist).
The object of the organization is
to help families or individuals who
are in actual need of the neces
saries of life. Cases may be re
norted to any member of the
c
board, after which an investigation
will be made, and if found worthy
the board will extend immediate
relief. The charities of the board
will not be made public, tho per
sonnel of its management leing
suflicicient guarantee that charity
will be given only where it is
deserved. Mayor Stewart declined
to accept any otliee in the organ
ization, but fully approves and will
actively assist in the work. Busi
ness mettings will be held monthly
and emergency meetings at the
call of the president.
Anyone who has donations to
make toward this work in the form
of food or clothing may leave the
same at the home of Mrs. A.
Thomson. It is announced that
an entertainment will be given
soon as a benefit for a charity.
The four ladies representing the
church societies were appointed
two months ago and several cases
of need have already been relieved
at their hands. Now that they
have organized and Mayor Stew
art's co-operation is assured, they
hope to handle this work much
more effectively.

Crops Not Damaged
Much by Winds
Conrad Strasser, a prominent
farmer from the Madras section,
was in town the last of the week
and says that he does not think
that the winds and dust storms of
last week did any great amount of
damage to the young grain in that
district. It is certain that the
iniurv was not of the nature of
laBt year, when much grain was
literally cut off at the ground by
the constant grinding of the blow
ing sand. While some seed may
have been uncovered the damage
is not thought to have been much
In the vicinity of renuieton a
terrific dust storm prevailed last
week. Big holes were scooped out
in the fields and the highways
were piled full of dust making
travel difficult, while the field
which were of a heavier 60il were
covered so deep with the dust
from others that the crop3 will
never be able to grow out. The
towns of that section were piled
full of dust three inches deep.
The surface of many fields were
transformed so much by the winds
that the owners could scarcely
recognize their own lands.
ny hurds of sheep and sum cows,
and owns land enough to make a
big county.
The tokes l ore call Bill "The
Desert Anjel,'' because be is one of
the best bosses and lust citizens
thev have. All of his men what
work for him live on tho Phat of
the land. He byes more canned
goods than ennv of the stores, and
the host be can get. And he byes
bitf. At one shipment he sent
out 70 sacks of shugar.
Bill is a Presbyterian and he is
also a anjel to that church and the
skools under it, and when he takes
a day off ho sends a check to some
church or skool. one of em for
ten thousand dollars going to the
Pendleton academy. Over in
Prineville there is a church that
Bill has helped out a lot, and
helped the minister a lot more, and
on the back of one of the pughs is
Brown's naim in big letters as
sort of monument to Bill.
Sum fokes call Bill crazy, and
some fokes call him wusser names,
and sum call him lucky and some
call him this and some call him
that. But fokes who have had deels
with Bill and have wusted him
wake up a rear or so later and
wonder how it is that Bill, being
. . t a a 1
so crazy, sot tne Mil ena oi me
bargain.
A phew vears ago when bosses
was selling for 2 to five a boss
Bill put all the loose muny he
cood Berap into bosses. Now ho
sells all the bosses he can gather
each year, five or 600 bed, at 701
per hoss. So bill was not crazy on
bosses. Then when sheep got
cheap he bought sheep, and now
when he thinks sheep is at the top
notch he is selling them ontil from
over twenty thousand he mebbe
only has 10 thousand. And the
yother sheep owners says Bill
crazy to sell sheep for they will go
higher and highor. But Bill just
winks the yother eye.
Bill is a old bachelor feller bu
it is rhuraored that he is looking
for a wife, so it might be well for
widders and others to open up a
correspondence with him. He is a
fine looking old chap, dresses like
a Methodist preecher, likes to talk
prohibition, is a republican in
polyticks and thinks that fellers
what sined statement number 1 is
lots crazier than he himself.
