PHASES OF
TOWNS
ON NORTH BUNK
Construction of New Railroad
Boon to White Salmon
- and Bingen.
LOTS INCREASE IN VALUE
Frospect of Transportation Facili
ties Attracts Investors and a
Heavy Building Movement
Is Now In Progress.
HOOD RIVER. Or., March 24.-(Special.)
The rapid development which is taking
place along the North Bank Railroad is
faid to be more emphasized in the towns
of White Salmon and Binjten than at any
other points along the line of the new
road. Three years ago there were less
than half a dozen dwellings in the limits
of the present town of White Salmon,
while today it has two banks, three
hotels, a school in which there are over
100 pupils enrolled, stores of all descrip
tions, a newspaper, lodges of Oddfellows
and Masons, who own their own hall,
churches, a nourishing Commercial Club
and a threater which is in process of
construction and will soon be finished.
The majority of these buildings has been
erected since the announcement that a
railroad would he built "on the Washing
ton side of the river, or within a year
and a half. The capacity of the school
house had to be doubled to accommodate
pupils this year, and for several months
many familes lived in tents while houses
were being built for their occupancy.
Application has1 been made to have the
town incorporated as a city, and it is ex
pected that by April 1 the first city elec
tion will be held. Candidates for the vari
ous offices were nominated last Tuesday,
two tickets being placed in the field, both
of which are Republican. The question
of local option will also be submitted to
the voters at the election. The town at
present is dry.
To Build Electric Koad.
White Salmon taps the Trout Lake,
Camas Prairie and Glenwood country,
which is devoted to dairyng and the lum
ber business. A company has been re
cently incorporated to build an electric
road from the river to the lake for the
purpose of hauling lumber to the railroad
and transporting passengers to the lake,
which is becoming quite popular as .a
Summer resort. The land in the immedi
ate vicinity of the town is devoted to
fruit raising, which has heretofore been
carried on without Irrigation. Some very
fine fruit has been produced, but growers
have decided that it can be improved by
the use of irrigation and have formed
a ditch company. An engineer Is now en
gaged In making a preliminary survey
for the new ditch, which, when it is fin
ished, is expected to serve about 3000 acres
of fruit land.
Hood River has been the shipping point
for White Salmon fruit In the past and
the earliest strawberries that have
reached the city markets have come from
there, owing to the fact that It is situated
on the south slope of the Columbia. This
year, however, growers are making prep
arations to ship their own 'berries and are
perfecting plans for the erection of a box
factory to make possible direct shipment.
Bltigen Also Prospers.
At Bingen. which is a mile and a half
below White Salmon, on the Columbia
River, a depot for the new railroad will
be built and workmen are now engaged
in leveling off the ground for that pur
pose. During the past three months 15
new dwellings and business buildings have
been erected there and lots have advanced
In value. A Portland Investor offered to
buy this week all that was left of the
entire townsite at what is said to be a
high figure, but the owners refused to
part with it. It is rumored that Bingen
may become the terminus of a divson of
the new road. Tt is about So miles from
Portland over the route of the railroad
and Is said to be better adapted for this
purpose than any place along the line.
The railroad company has secured a tract
there 4000x;iOO feet and is said to be ne
gotiating for more. The cheapest lot that
can be bought at Bingen is $225, and as
high as has been offered for corners
near where it is expected the station will
be built. The townsite Is owned by the
Suksdorf family, who are declining to sell
property at what is considered high prices.
Many of the pioneer residents of Hood
River located at Bingen when they first
arrived in the Columbia Valley, and it is
said to have been settled long before there
were any residents at Hood River or any
other point between The Dalles and Cas
cade Ivcks. The Suksdorf family have
been there for many years and several
of the oldest pioneers along the river re
side there. The townsite was orignally
settled up by Germans, who gave it the
present name.
OPPOSE NEW FonESf KESEKVES
Harney Valley Stockmen Itegard
Tliem as a Menace.
HARNEY, Or., March Zi.-iTo the Edi
tor.) We have had the finest Winter for
many years, not over ten inches of snow
at any one time, and the mercury marked
only 6 degrees below only twice. The
farmers have been plowing and seeding
for the last three weeks and the ground
is in fine condition. The outlook for a
crop was never better. Homeseekers are
coming in almost daily and from reports
we are receiving they have only com
menced to come.
We begin to tee fruits of the advertis
ing of the combined efforts of the 63 or
ganizations In the Oregon Development
League. The future prospects are bright,
with one or two exceptions, the first is
the Casey Act, under which a corpora
tion has filed on 67.000 acres, which is
withheld from settlement right In the
heart of Harney, which has discouraged
wm incoming emigrants. We also know
that this 67.000 acres i not desert land,
for It was so proven at the Investigation
held before the Registrar and Receiver
t tht Iand Office at Burns, November,
i9fi. which evidence was to the effect
that not more than 10 per cent was de
sert land. This evidence is before the
Secretary of the Interior, at Washington
1). C.
Second, we do not like the forest re
serve, and especially leasing the range.
We think it is well to look out for the
rising generation, but we do not think it
best to work a hardship on the poor pio
neer which. 1 think, would be the out
come of the forest reserve as the laws
now are.
We think the President made a great
mistake in making those last reserves
after congress had passed a law taking
the power from the President, the same
to take effect next July.
The forest reserve lines comes to with-

in five miles of Harney City. We think
this will work to the disadvantage of the
Incoming emigration as well as to those
who are here especially the leasing of
the range, which all object to. as we
can't herd the stock on the range, nor
can we herd them off of it.
The only profitable way to manage
stock here is to turn the stock on the
range In the Spring, then all ride togeth
er in the Fall roundup when each rancher
selects his own. With a range of 60
miles, 30 miles from home each way. a
man finds his stock widely scattered. En
closed you will find a circular which will
show what we are doing.

COXSTRVCTIOX OF SFBT ROADS
Important Highway to Be Completed
August 1. ,
HOQUIAM, Wash., March 24. Work on
the state and county roads from this city
to the Humptulips Valley and thence to
the ocean beach, is being pushed as fast
as the weather will permit and Commis
sioner Watkins hopes to have this road in
shape and ready for traffic by August 1.
As soon as the bluff around the limits of
Aberdeen has been crossed by the new
roadway and the Humptulips River
bridge, it will be possible to come from
Seattle, Portland or Tacoma In an auto
mobile, going through to the ocean
beaches.
The contract for the Humptulips bridge
has been let to the Northwest Bridge
Company, of Seattle. It calls for the
construction of a steel structure by Aug
ust 1, to cost about JliOOO.
There Is a plan to build a state road
from this city to Lake Quinlault, .the
most beautiful spot in the state. Lake
Quinlault lies 33 miles from here. It is
in the Olympic Mountains and said to be
an ideal location for a Summer resort.
As soon as this road is opened there Is
no doubt but what it will become a favo
rite outing place.
BREED FOR STATE
DUTCH BELTED CATTLE LATEST
FOR OREGON FARMS.
Clatsop Rancher Brings Six Head
Across Continent to Build
l"p Dairy Herd.
ASTORIA, March. 24. (Special.) Clat
sop County, which is rapidly coming to
the front as a dairy district, Is the pos
sessor of the first herd of pure-blooded
Dutch Belted cattle to be brought to
Oregon. The herd, consisting of one bull
and five heifers, arrived during the past
week from Pennsylvania and New Jersey
for O. I. Peterson, of this city, and is
now at his Sunflower Dairy on the Lewis
and Clark River.
This breed of cattle comes from Hol
land and the importations to this country
have been small on account of the fabu
lous prices asked, the breed being con
trolled entirely by the Dutch nobility.
The cattle, which are hardy and vigorous
as well as great milk producers, are jet
black in color with a broad, white band
around their bodies and at a distance
the animals have the appearance of hav
ing a while blanket wound around them.
As milk producers they are unequalled,
several of the cows having records of 36
quarts of miik each per day. One of
them. Echo No. 701, owned by Frank
Sanders of Bristol, N. H., has a record
of 60.000 pounds of milk in six years, and
in 1SH she produced 12.672 pounds.
Oyama No. 617. the bull received by
Mr. Peterson, was purchased from Miss
Lucy Du Bois' ranch at Glen Hazel, Pa.,
and cost at that place about $500. a fur
ther sum of $140 expressage being paid
to get him here. He is 2H years of age
and is a promising youngster. His sire
was Tamagatta No. 479 and his grandsire
was Chief Byron No. 219. a star in the
show ring. Oyama'a dam was Alpha No.
9SS. also a noted prize-winner. She is The
animal that beat the great prize-winning
cow. Countess Rose No. 964. at several of.
the big fairs In the East last Fall.
The remainder of Mr. Peterson's Dutch
Belted herd arriving last week consists
of five heifers, which -he purchased front
G. G. Glbbs, of Vail, N. J. They are
Fancy No. 1341, Fondle No. 1342, Filllt
No. 1308. Faith No. 1300 and Filu'ra No.
1302. All are registered animals and give
every promise of developing into mag
nificent dairy cows. Mr. Peterson intends
to exhibit his herd at the Oregon State
Fair in Salem next Fall, and It will no
doubt be a novelty to many of the visit
ors, as there has never before been a
herd of Dutch Belted cattle either owned
or exhibited in Oregon.
Wejerhaeusers Pay Heavy Tax.
CHEHALIS, Wash.. March 24. (Spe
cial.) Tax payments at the office of
the County Treasurer up to date have
been the heaviest ever known here:
One of the largest payments made thus
far was that of the Weyerhaeuser Com
pany, amounting to $53,000. In round
numbers, as compared with S32,000 last
year. As the company has bought but
little timber In this county recently,
the added tax represents almost en
tirely an Increase in taxes on the same
land.

IX A SOUTHERN OREGON VINEYARD.
AFTER HIGH PRIZE
Roads Fight for Entrance to
Gray's Harbor.
HEAVY BUSINESS IN VIEW
Transcontinental Lines Struggle for
Advantage In Route to Hoquiam
and Adjacent Country, Known
as Rich Timber District.
HOQUIAM, Wash., March 24. (Spe
cial.) The railroads of the country
have transferred their fight In the
Northwest from the banks of the Co
lumbia River to the Gray's Harbor
country and th city of Hoquiam is now
the star ..ing spot for the representa
tives of the Northern Pacific. Chicago,
Milwaukee & St. r-aul. the Union Pa
cific and the Gray's Harbor & Puget
Sound Railroad Companies.
Since the work of surveying a road
to the Gray's Harbor country was com
menced several months ago by other
roads, the Northern Pacific Railway
Company has fought every move and
tried to cut off the entrance of any
other railway into this heavy timbered
section of the state. For many years
the Northern Pacific has held the con
trol of the Gray's Harbor country In its
hands and it is safe to say that no
equal mileage of road belonging to this
corporation lias paid so large an inter
est on the investment as the Gray's
Harbor branch.
Coming first into this country, the
Northern Pacific was given a right of
way through this city, the grade being
builf and the "trackage laid' so that
trains could enter Hoquiam. No per
manent improvements have been made,
and today the depot and freight houses
of this corporation are an eyesore to
the public.
At a recent meeting of the City Coun
cil three railroad companies had attor
neys on the floor in their interests.
The Northern Pacific has asked for a
franchise allowing it an additional
portion of Railroad avenue, which is its
entrance to this city.
Other railroads desiring to come
through Hoquiam are fighting this
move of the Northern Pacific, declaring
It an attempt to cut oft the entrance of
other lines. This is considered the only
logical place to construct a bridge
across the Hoquiam River.
The other roads say by granting the
Northern Pacific the requested fran
chise it would enable that company to
build Us bridge several feet north of
the present structure. By retaining
control of the present grant the North
ern Pacific could then prevent any
other road from crossing its tracks and
passing over its bridge.
The fight made by other railway rep
resentatives before the Council was for
the purpose of delaying action by the
Council until March 29. when Major
Chittenden, of the United States Corps
of Engineers, in charge of Gray's Har
bor, will visit the city. He will be
asked to pass upon the question as to
whether the construction of a bridge at
this point is possible.
North of this city in the Humptulips
and Quiniault Valleys several engi
neering parties are hard at work run
ning lines and making field notes of
the country. Camps are located at
Humptulips and the crew is working
both toward this city and Quiniault
Lake. The camp at Quiniault Lake has
sent crews further north.. Three lines
are being run and there is no douftt
but that it is proposed to enter this,
the richest timber belt in the world,
within a very short time.
All supplies for these camps are
shipped from this city. On buying days
the long string of pack horses is a re
minder of the early days when rail
roads were unthouglit of.
ACTIVITY AT COTTAGE GROVE
Demand for Laborers and Property
Is Advancing.
COTTAGE GROVE. Or.. March 24.
(Special.) There has been an unusual de
gree of activity in and around Cottage
Grove for the iast month. AH the lum
ber mills are running full capacity, creat
ine 9 hlr demand for laborers. While
the Southern Pacific Is not furnishing
cars sufficient for the entire output, it is
making special efforts to do so and the
lumbermen are not complaining.
During the last two weeks numerous
sales in teal estate have been made, and
Front street property has advanced about
50 per cent. Several new brick buildings
arte already under way and more will be
commenced in a few days. Residence
property has not materially advanced, but
prices are good and sales frequent
There have been about 100 men em
ployed during the Winter ln the various
OF STATE OF OREGON
mining camps. The Oregon Securities
Company, notwithstanding it is in the
hands of a receiver, has not stopped op
erations and the mill is said to be yield
ing well.
It is reported that the Grizzly property
in Champion Basin Creek, near the Ore
gon Securities, has been sold for $40,000.
The deal was made in London. Bums
Bros., the principal owners, have been
at work on the property for a number of
years and have opened up some splendid
ore bodies.
RICH STRIKE IN PINE VALLEY
Reports of Great Wealth in Seven
Devils District.
BAKER CITY, Or., March JM. The
richness of the placer gold mines at old
Auburn and even the wealth of the Cali
fornia placers are rivaled by reports of
the strike recently made by Blair, Her
bert and Underwood In the Seven Devils
district. Pine Valley, about 60 miles east
of Baker City, is the place where the
discovery was made, and those who have
been on the scene predict that It will be
one of the greatest placer camps in the
West.
Three years ago "Dad'" Underwood,
who made the strike, located on Boulder
Creek, and began prospecting for drift
diggings. For years he had been a placer
miner and saw . what were to him indi
cations of rich dirt in the old channel of
the creek. He determined to tunnel to
bedrock, but he and his partners pros
pected up and down the old channel for
six or seven miles before finally reach
ing bedrock. Load after load was then
taken out, and many of the loads ran as
high as $10 In gold. The metal was coarse
and the nuggets ranged from 25 cents to
$11 in value. " -
For miles along Boulder Creek and its
tributaries and on other streams where
there are signs of pay dirt, claims have
been staked out. It is predicted that with
the opening of Spring one of the great
est rushes ever seen in Oregon will occur
to the new field.
Work on the Poorman Group.
BAKER CITY, March 24. (Special.)
That there are 100,000 tons of copper ore
assaying $14 a ton lying at the surface
on the Poorman group of claims, is the
declaration of Manager Arthur, of the
mines, who has just returned from the
property. There are outcroppings assaying
from 2 to 5 per cent in copper, the
greatest in Oregon. The Poorman group
promises to be one of the richest of the
copper mines in the great copper belj
of Eastern Oregon... The company now
has a double shift at work.
Railroad Company Buys Ties.
CHEHALIS. Wash.. March 24. (Spe
cial.) The Union Pacific is making
contracts in this neighborhood for ties
to be delivered on its right of way.
One contract has been let for 35,000
ties, to be delivered in six months, on
the old Union Pacific right of way
near Napavlne. The contractor Is Ally
Wright.
Find Petroleum Near Seaside.
SEASIDE, Or., March 24. (Special.)
Four miles south of Seaside there
have been discovered indications of oil
in the mountains this side of Elk
Creek. Samples of rock have been
brought in that are strongly scented
with oil. There is talk of organizing
a company to prospect .the find.
Building Active on Coos Bay.
MARSHFIELD. Or., March 24. (Spe
cial.) Coos Bay is in the midst of an era
of great building activity. Estimates
show that during the past year $250,000

largely represents dwellings although a
number of business houses have been
erected.
Fine Church for Roseburg.
ROSEBURG. Or., March 24. (Special.)
The Methodist Church of Roseburg

METHODS
Hood River Orchardists Dis
agree on Merits of Irriga
tion and Non-Irrigation.
WARM SESSION OF SOCIETY
Majority Sentiment That Flavor and
Quality of Fruit Are Improved
by Watering, but Other Side
Has Staunch Adherents.
HOOD RIVER. Or., March 24. (Spe
cial.) The Hood River Horticultural So
ciety held a big meeting here last
week in the opera-house fo discuss
horticultural matters before starting In on
the Spring cultivation and spraying. About
150 members were present and the meet
ing was a lively one from start to finish.
C. H. Sproat, president of the society,
presided.
The relative merits of irrigation or non
irrigation of fruit trees first engaged the
attention of the society and precipitated
a warm discussion. Women as well as
men took part in it and arguments pro
and con were expressed with milch feel
ing. E.- L. Smith started the ball rolling
by making a speech in which he said that
in his opinion Hood River orchards re
quired little, if any. water for the pro
duction of fine fruit. H. F. Davidson,
who owns several hundred acres of or
chard, took the opposite view and said
that after 16 years of experience as a
grower and shipper he was convinced that
the best fruit resulted from the Judicious
application of water. A. I. Mason, whose
apples took the first prize at the Hood
River fruit fair last Fall and who also
captured prizes at the meeting of the
State Horticultural Society in Portland,
was on his feet the minute Mr. Davidson
was seated and said he did not agree.
His orchard, he said, was nine years old
and had never had a drop of water on
it, and what was more, unless he changed
his opinion. It never would have any. He
thought anyone would concede that his
apples were first-class. As to the flavor
of irrigated or non-irrigated fruit he ex
pressed himself positively. He had eaten
both fruit at meetings all over the Pa
cific Northwest and in his opinion the
non-Irrigated fruit had the better of it.
J. Porter, of the firm of Sear & Porter,
who own the largest commercial orchard
In the valley, said that in many years'
experience he had found that when trees
reached the age of from 10 to 14 years
water was absolutely necessary.
B. F. Tucker, a successful grower who
has also taken many prizes for his fruit,
contended that if growers would care-'
fully watch the trees they could tell
whether they needed water or not by the
condition of the foliage. When it looked
wilted they should be irrigated. This
occurred In some seasons, but once, and
in others as often as three times.
President Sproat said that Mr. Mason's
statement that he would never use water
on his trees was ill-advised and that
when they got to be 15 or 18 years old he
thought Mr. Mason would have a change
of mind. Others who talked on the ques
tion were J. A. Wilson, Professor J. L.
Carier, A. C. Staten, manager of the
Farmers' Irrigating Ditch, and Murray
Kay. The advocates of irrigation out
numbered those In favor of non-Irrigation.
Other topics discussed were "Over-Cultivation
of Orchards," upon which E. L.
Smith delivered an address. The gist of
his discussion was that too much culti
vation extracted the humus from the soil,
rendering it necessary to use artificial
fertilizers or plant vetch or some other
crop that would restore the natural plant
food. R. H. Wallace responded to "Prob
lems for Novice Fruit Growers." County
Fruit Inspector Castner told of the re
sults of spraying experiments and advo
cated the moderate use of lime to im
prove the soil. B. F. Tucker addressed
the meeting on "How to Keep an Eternal
High Price for Apples."
Poles Establish Colony.
ABERDEEN. Wash., March 24. (Spe
cial.) During the past two years a consid
erable number of Poles have arrived in
Aberdeen, and a Polish settlement has
also been established a few miles from the
city where they have been colonized. This
week a Polish priest came to the city
and purchased lots on which the first
Polish Catholic Church on Gray's Har
bor is to be built.
