Effort will be made to negotiate the sale of stock of the proposed Ore gon City. Iteaver Creek & Molalla Railway to residents of this county. It Is expected by the people who are interested In having the road con structed tha. there will be no diffi culty in disposing of stock having a par value of $100,000 for 75 per cent. of this amount. J. W. Thoma and L. W. Robblns. of Molalla; C. T. Howard, of Mullno; Silas Wright and Feed H. Burns, of Liberal; and G. A. Schuebel and H. H. Hughes, of Beaver Creek, went to Portland this week and held a con ference with F. M. Swift, who is pro moting the scheme to connect Oregon City by bands of steel with the ter ritory along the Molalla road Into Scott' Mills, touching at Beaver Creek, running down Buckner Creek to Mullno, and striking Liberal, Mo lalla and Marquam. They are en thusiastic over the project and will leave nothing undone to accomplish the actual construction of the road. Mr. Swift told these gentlemen that he would have no difficulty In floating bonds for the construction of the line, providing he Is In a position to show to the bond buyers that the residents of the territory through which the road will pass, are becoming Inter ested financially. His Idea is to bond the proposition for $1,000,000, and not only construct a railroad, but build plants for the development of elec tricity, obtaining power from the Mo lalla River. With this end in view he has already filed upon water from forks of the Molalla and expects to build a dam between Dickey's Prai rie and the North fork of the Molalla. This dam, Including the wings, will be about 1200 feet In width. The railroad route Is now definitely located as far as Mullno, and no en gineering difficulties are presented to that point The grade in no place Is more than m per cent Engineer Lorlng has been making surveys for several months and has made prelim inary locations as far as Marquam. With the Immense deposits of lime stone at Marquam, and the coal pros pects at Scott's Mills, there Is little question about the road paying good returns on the investment, and it Is probable that arrangements will soon be made for the disposal of stock In the company to local people. .1 WILLIAM SHEAHAN COMING TO HAWLEY WELL GROUNDED REPORT SAYS PAPERM AKER WILL GO TO NEW MILL. It Is current report that William Sheahan will become superintendent of the new Hawley Pulp & Paper Company. Mr. Hawley would neither deny nor affirm the report, and said he did not care to discuss the matter at this time. Mr. Sheahan Is arranging to move from Camas, Wash., where he has been for the last three years as su perintendent of the Crown-Columbia Pulp & Paper Company.
