Editor Courier-Herald: Following up
the advice I gave you last week with ref
erence to the large number of home
seekers leaving St. Paul last Tuesday
and Wednesday on our train Nc. 11, I
have now to say that I am today in re
ceipt of a telegram from Charles S. Fee,
general pesBenger and ticket agent of
this company at St. Paul, saying that
our tram left there at 8:55 this morning
with over 40J horaeseekers for the Pa
cific coast, and that every indication
points now to there being between 000
anu700 onthe train leaving tomorrow
momma bound for Washington and Ore
gon. The great number of homeseekers
taking advantage of the low rate of $25
from St. Paul, Minneapolis, Duluth and
$30 from Chicago, warrants the conclu
sion that thousands of people have their
eyes turned to the west and will undoubt
edly settle among u, and every assist
ance and aid within our power should be
given them in order that we may secure
them as permanent settlers in thia ter
liiory. A. D. Ciiari.tv,

Bight of Way Across Southern
Foxlflc Hallway Tracks.
On Saturaay a motion to dissolve the
injunction, brought by C. W. Ganong
and others, against the construction of
the Oregon City & Southern Railway to
Canemah, was argued in the circuit
court. W. W. Cotton, attorney for the
O. R. & N. Co., and O. D. Latourette for
the Oregon City & Southern, argued In
favor of the motion, and W.D. Fenton
and F. T. Griffith, for the Southern Pa
cific and 0. W. Ganong, argued against
dissolving the injunction. On Tuesday
Judge McBride convened an adjourned
term of court, and announced bis decie
ion in the premises. It simply dissolves
the injunction. The court also denied
the application of the Oregon & Califor
nia Railroad Company for a restraining
order against the Oregon City & South
ern Railway Company, constructing a
line of road from Oregon City to Cane
mah. The company, also asked that the
franchise granted the Oregon City &
Southern, be annulled and set aside.
Among other things the Oregon & Cal
ifornia alleges that the Oregon City &
Southern would cross its tracks twice,
thus rendering traffic exceedingly
dangerous.
It is learned that the Oregon City &
Southern Railway will not begin exten
sion operations until after condemnation
proceedings for crossing the tracks of
the Oreaon & California Railroad Com
pany at Canemah. The last complaint
