Railroad Celebration
At Redmond.
Committees from the Red
mond Commercial Club are mak
ing plans for Railroad Celebra
tion day, to be held there soon
to commemorate the advent of
the Oregon Trunk Railway in
that city. The date has not
been definitely set. President
Gray, of the Oregon Trunk, has
notified the president of the
club that it may be possible to
run a special there for October
2, but as the Central Oregon De
velopment League meets at
Burns on that date and tho rail
road officials of the road want to
attend that event, it was deemed
advisable to fix another date for
the celebration at Redmond.
President Gray has now wired
that it may be possible to get
special trains there aoout Sep
tember 3, or perhaps sooner,
and the club has taken the mat
ter up with General Passenger
Agent Cotnan. If possible the
celebration is to be held the
latter part of this month. Quite
a delegation of members of the
Portland Commercial Club has
promised to attend ihe celebra
tion there, and the railroad of
ficials of the Oregon Trunk and
Deschutes roads have signified
their intention of being there to
help along with the ceremonies.
Governor West and other state
officials will also be there. The
programme of the day will con
sist of baseball games, with good
sized purses; Wild West bronco
busting, band concerts, speak
ing by prominent men, and a big
banquet. Preparations have al
ready been made to take care of
the big crowd that will come
from all parts of Central Oregon,
as well as from Portland and the
Willamette Valley. I
Southern Pacific
File Answer.
The long expected answer oj
the Southern- Pacific railroad
company to the suit filed by the
government for the recovery of
2,273,000 acres of land held by
the company as state grant lands
was filed at Salem on the 6th.
The railroad company in its
answer holds that the erovem-
ment has for forty years collect- j
ed taxes on the unsold portions
of the land involved and made ilo
protest against the patenting of
the lands in question.
In the government's suit the
company was charged with for
feiting all its rights to posses
sion of the land involved when it
sold the land off in tracts con
taining more than 160 acres to
more than one individual and at
more than 2.50 an acre, as was
specified when the land was giv
en the railroad company.
The value of the land included
in this grant and over which the
suit is pending, is $70,000,000.
Suit was brought some time
ago by the government on the
grounds above to annul the title

A. A. Camp and Carl Swanson,
two of the injured in the Oregon
Trunk wreck at Moody, who were j
to have brought suit at the next j
term of circuit court for $5000 i
damages, have filed a petition i
with the county clerk that the j
cases be removed to the U. S.
circuit court. After due consid
eration Judge Bradshaw granted I
the petitions and the case will be
tried at the next setting of the'
court at Portland. The Dalles '

We are always glad to have such

a few remarks but ho preferred

We will hear him again some

legal over the company's demur
rer Judge Wolverton overruled
it, and this answer would appear
to mean that the corporation ex
pects to fight the case through
to a finish. In fact, one of the
greatest arrays of legal talent
ever lined up in any case in the
history of the country will prob
ably clash when this answer
comes up to issue and the final
result will be watched for by the
general public as it will be one of
wide interest, not only in Oregon
but all over the United States.
Those who are waiting to take
up homesteads on the company's
lands, however, would better
come to Central Oregon to settle,
for there is a strong probability
that most of them will die of old
age long before the final deter
mination of this celebrated suit.
If the company loses in the lower
court and there is every reason
to believe it will lose there is
still the circuit ceurt cf .appeals,
and finally the United States su
preme court, either of which may
re verse the district court.

A bad cutting scrape occurred
Saturday night at Opal City,
when Joe Rossi was slashed un
mercifully by a companion, Joe
Nell, with a sawedoff caseknife.
Both are Italians, and both were
intoxicated at the time. The ;
quarrel was who should occupy j
a certain bunk in the bunk house, j
and Rossi, being the larger man,
slapped his companion, who
after repeated attacks drew his
knife and cut Rossi so badly that
the Opal City surgeons wero
doubtful as to his recovery.
Rossi was taken to a hospital at
Portland, and yesterday word
came that it was thought he
would live. Nell was arrested
Sunday, admitted the act, and is
now in the county jail.
