There was a conference between the citizens of Oregon City and the officials of the Southern Pacific Railroad com pany last Friday afternoon, at hich the subject of a crossing for the south end road was discussed at some lenght. The officials of the road assured the citizens of their hearty good will and co-operation in the matter, and engine ers will be sent up witin a few days to make estimates on the cost ot the crow ing. The proposed road is to be one and one-balf miles In lenght and its cost is estimated at $9,000. There 'is a difference of opinion as to who owns the rights of way over which the Southern Pacific tracks are laid at the base of the bluff, and a friendly suit is now pending in the State Supreme court to settle the matter. The city claims that the street, winding along the lower edge of the precipice, in and al ways has been the property of Oregon City, and that the railroad company only has a franchise for its tracks through there. The company, on the other hand, claims that it owns the pro perty by right of purchase of the land from the John M''Loughlin heirs seven years ago. The city contends that the heirs of John McLoughlin had no land to sell there and that the quit-claim deed of the railroad company wis there fore void and of no effect ; that in the plat of the city Bluff street follows the base of the precipice ; that the city some years ago could have bought the Mc Loughlin interest for $3000, but upon in vestigation it was found that the heirs had no interest in the tract whateve r This new road will mean a great deal to the property owners and business men in the southern part of the town and will likelv have the effect of build ing up tha end. The town of recent 3 ears has steadily grown nortnwura while the south end has progressed very little. A Modern David Harum. 0. N. Greenman is the David Harum of Oregon City. We do not mean to say that he could be persuaded to trade horses on Sunday; but we do mean to say that he will sell,trade or"dicker, for a horse on any other day. A few days ago he sold a team of very common worn out plugs for $350. The Oregonian had it $450, which is just about ' as near to the truth as a Republican paper can con sciet ciously get. Well that is only the beginingof the story. One dav last week an innocent farmer came to town with a spanking fine team of young bay draft horses. They were fine as silk and to look upon them was good for sore eyes. When brother Greenman saw them, he threw away his cane. He approached the farmer and asked him how much he wanted for that pair of "plugs." The farmer said $375 and they worth every dollar of $300. Mr, David Harum Greenman however said he could not see it that way but if be would take $350 be might be able to borrow the money from a friend and make a trade. The fanner fell into the trap so Mr. Greenman has the best team that Oregon City has seen in many a day. It is a peach. It is good to look at. Thev are like a royal flush. The old gent has been offered $500 for the team but says no. A New Mil!. The country between Eagle Creek and High Bridge on the Clackamas is a perfect hive of industry. More than 200 men are employed along the right of way of the 0. W. P. .k Railway com pany's new electric road. At the falls of the Clackamas a large force of men are employed in setting up a much need' ed lumber mill to supply timbers for the bridges, and ties between Springwater and bresham. This new road will open up a splendid country and will add materially to the wealth of Clackamas county. RANTED To increase my list of farms and lands for sate, in all parts of the county.
