The last of the brick for Main street arrived the first of the week and the work of laying them was resumed on Monday.

It is not only one of the best looking streets in the state, but is without doubt the best street so far as use and durability are concerned . It is a pleasure to drive on it either with a driving rig or a load, no street that is made being as well adapted to all around use as vitrified brick. The contractors, Messrs.

Parker was among this number, al though he came up town on Wednesday he was unable to work.

Postmaster ProUman of Portland is in trouble with his bondsmen because he will not make appointments to suit them, and a paper is being circulated amongst them asking the postmaster general to release them from the ost master's bonds.

The Toledo Leader unfolds tho follow ing plan for the extension of the Oregon Pacific over the Cascade into Eastern Oregon.

The latter four miles would have to be graded, hut there! a is good grading out tit on the ground to do ihe work. If this stretch ol sixteen miles of proposed road can he gotten from out of the Oregon Pacific muddle, there are men with money ready to con struct it and put it in operation, (if course, at this time the scheme is In Its incep tion and nothing may come of it. The benefits to be derived would he mani fold. It would bring Prineville within fifty miles of a railroad and shipping now goes to The Dalles Ltd miles away. It can be readily seen that the whole trade of the basin of Eastern Oregon would i come over the Oregon Pacific. One can scarcely realize he immensity of this trade. The wool shipments alone that would come over the road it asserted by some to be so great that it would keep a steamer busy Wween Yaquina ami San Francisco. The construction of this short link of sixteen miles would com plete a chain that would place the Ore go i Pacific and tributary country on its leet We sincerely hojie for the success of the enterprie.
