The South End Road.
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.
