of a line that will tap the Southern

probably the former town.
It is known that a representative
of Swift & Company has recently ta
ken an option on about 160 acres of
land belonging to Mrs. Jason Johnson,
one mile east of Marquam, agreeing
to purchasa the property by Septem
ber 15 for $l0,00if? The reason for
this purchase is the character of the
land, which is well known for Its de

lime, as it is called, makes excellent

for the benefit of their health. And
no doubt they will come back with a

be obliged to subsist on their own
cooking for a week or two.
Mr. Leeson and family, late from
the East, have moved on the Gardner

Swift & Company are planning the
construction of an immense plant be

a great deal of this material.
It is not, however, for the sole use
of the lime that the road is to be
projected into the Interior of Clack

millions of feet of timber in that sec

the Diamond Coal Company, a Port
land concern, now has a small force of
men at work sinking a shaft in their

around coal mines are difficult to ob

doubt that the field offers great op
portunities in the future.
Surveys were made for a line Into
the section about two months ago.
oder'B sawmill, near Needy, will be
one of the points touched. As the
supply of lumber throughout the coun
try becomes less, the great Interests
are encroaching rapidly into Oregon,

constructed from the Southern Pa

Big Boost.

W. S. U'Ren, a prominent attorney
of this city, was Interviewed recently
by the Oregonlan on the question of
referendum and the Port of Columbia
Coramlatlon. He says that the people
of the state may enact a law providing
for the creation of a Port of Columbia
Commission, and ho also believes that
the people of Multnomah, Columbia
ami Clatsop counties may through the
Initiative enact a law providing for
sich a commission.
"I think." said Mr. U'Ren. "the
Icglslatuto can prepare a general law
and submit It to the people of the
state, providing a method by which
municipal districts or corporations
can be organized."
Mr. U'Ren referred to section 1 of
article IV of the constitution, which
has the following bearing on this par
ticular situation:
"The Initiative and referendum
powers reserved to the people by this
Constitution are hereby further re
served to the legal voters of every
municipality and district, as to all
local, special and municipal legisla
tion, of every character. In or for their
respective municipalities and districts.
The manner of exercising said powers
shall be prescribed by the general
laws, except that cities and towns
may provide for the manner of exer
cising the initiative and referendum
powers as to their municipal legislation."
We have a buyer for timber lands and for two ten
acre tracts.
We have for sale some fine river front properties.
Have made some nice additions to our list In la
