Slgnl fylnjf Its Intention of transacting business In this rtate, the Nevada-Cal-Ifornla-OrfKon Hallway today flied with the Secretary of State a copy of its articles of Incorporation and also a declaration setting- forth the names of Its officers, and Its attorney upon whom K'Kal service may he had. Krotu an amendment to the original articles of Incorporation the Inference may be drawn that IIih company con templates railroad bulldlnK In Central Oregon. The orttcinol articles called for the construction of a line from Keno to Uiwu Lake, on tha boundary line between this state and California. The amendment, not only calls for con struction of this line, but ai.to for the buildlnc; of a line from lioose Lake Ihroutth tha counties of lake. Crook and Wasco, the terminal to be at a point near The 1'allcs. The amend ment was made In November of 'ast year. The capitalization Is given as 2.:on.- OOO. and the principal officers are: t O.imyn. president. New York; T. Dunaway. vice-president: W. J. Harry, irener.il counsel: . A. Dunaway, su perlntendent. all of Keno, and A. D. Moran. of New York, treasurer. W". Lair Thompson, of lkevlew. Is named as attorney upon whom legal service may be had. It Is the belief of local railroad men that the proposed road Is backed by the Western Pacific, a OouM line. The Western Pacific some time ago took over a narrow-gnuire line extending from lteno to Alturaa. a small towil about !i miles almost due south of Lake Hew. This road has been wtd t-ned to a standard iraitKe and prelim inary work Is In progress between Al- turas and Lakevlew. This Rives strer.Kth to the belief that the Ncvada-Callfornla-OrcKon Hallway Is a subsidiary company of the Western Pacific. It Is probable that Lakevlew will be the present terminus of the line.

Sept. 21. Efforts are being made In certain quarters to revive the Charles K. Hughes Presidential boom, notwithstanding the fact that the As sociate Justice of the United States Su preme Court only a few month's ago announced that he was out of politic f'ir good, and not to be considered lu connection with any elective office. Arcordin f to the latest report, Hughes Is to be brought forward as the Insurgent candidate for the Re publican nomination In 1S12. Senator La Follette, after keeping his own boom before the public, for another six months. Is to withdraw In favor of Hughes. Inasmuch as 1 Follette can not muster the support of more than half the insurgent leaders. With La Follette out of the way, so goea the report, Hughes will be entered In the race, backed solidly by the Insurgent faction, and Is expected to win over from Taft a large element of the reg ular wing of the party . I .a Follette ot Seir-leoylng. This story Is preposterous on its face, and was quickly denied at "progres sive" Republican headquarters In Washington, as was to have been ex pected, for those headquarters are un der the direction of Senator La Fol lette; were opened for the express pur pose of promoting the La Follette boom, and will not be used to advance the political fortunes of any other man. And no one Is so foolish as to presume that Senator La Follette Is going to eliminate himself from the Presiden tial fight. While It Is true that Senator La Fol lette will not withdraw in favor of Justice Hughes, It Is equally true that a good, many Insurgent Republicans who have refused to support La Fol lette for the Presidential nomination would support Hughes If he could be persuaded to run. Prior to the ad journment of Congress several well known "progressive" Senators, who have declined to Join the La Follette movement, were emphatic In expressing tlie opinion that Hughes. In their Judg ment, would he the strongest man tae Republicans could name next year, and they were also free to say that they mould support Hughes if they thought there was any chance of nominating him. They would not support La Fol lette, however, either because they" be lieved him too radical or felt he would go down to certain defeat. Hughe Sincerity Not Doubted. If Justice ltMshes sticks to his de clared purpose to keep out of politics, the anti-La Follette insurgents will have to fall In line behind Taft. That Justice Hughes w-lll keep out of poU itlcs Is not questioned. Not even his most ardent admirers believe he will permit his name to be placed before the next Republican convention. If It should be presented It Is believed the Justice would direct that It be with drawn before any action could be tak en. This he would do not because alone of his determination to have done with polities, but because the presentation of his name to a conven tion that Is almost certain to renom inate President Taft would be to offer affront to the man who placed him on the Supreme Bench. Justice Hughes regards his appointment as a very great honor. He feels deeply Indebted to the President fT the appointment and has no desire to run against hlvi for tne Presidency next year. One of the Interesting sidelights tn connection with the revival of Hughes gossip was the promptness with which insurgent headquarters repudiated the story. No sooner had the rumor been heard In Washington than La Follette-s manager Issued a formal statement de claring that no "progressive" Repuo ltcnn was known to favor the nomina tion of Hughes, and also denying the tstetnent that Senator La Follette con templated retiring in favor of the Jus tice. Vet It waa not many weeks ago .h.t thlj headquarters was opened with the announcement that It Wat to pro mote tne Interests oi tne insurgvni wing of the party. That announcement was amusing, for La, Follette never opened headquarters lo his life with a view to neiping an body else. He did not pick one of lils followers to run this bureau In the In terest of any other man. He did not eave his private secretary as mono In command at v asiungiuu ir." hes.io-.iarters with any other pur pose In mind than the furtherance of the La roiieno ooom. - - " been made except In the Interest of La Follette. The whole Incident, nowever, ici.ct .,nh..i two things: One. the hopelessness of running Hughes before a, convention that Is almost sure to name Taft. and secondly, tne mur iu nr of utilizing La Follette's organ isation to help anyone other than the Wisconsin senator.

Some land is worth One Thousand Dollars an acre. , Boms land Is not worth One Dollar an acre. Some land produces for a little while and peters out. The soil is not deep enough. Shallow soil too close to hardpan may produce for a little while but soon wears out. The Bldwell Orchards are approved. They have been producing: for years the finest fruita and grains any farmer ever saw. They are producing them today. There is no doubt, no question, no uncertain ty about these statements. They are true. Tou can best decide for yourself by a visit to Chlco. As soon as you get anywhere near Chico- you will beg-In to see the finest land a bird ever flew over; the deepest soil; the rich est foliage; the greatest variety of trees, shrubs, flowers and products. When you arrive at Chlco anybody will tell you that the choicest of all the lands la the Bidwell Orchards. There are 2500 acres. They are orchards In full bearing, with all kinds of fruits and nuts. . Thero are vineyards with table grapes and wine grapes. There are alfalfa fields and grain fields. There are trees you will wonder at for size and magnificence. Tou will say to yourself that never before have you seen, such land, such fertility of soil, such a variety of products, such ad vantages as are offered by Bldwell Orchards. General John Bidwell came here when land was to be had for the asking. He was an active, progressive, aggressive pioneer. Be traveled all over California. He studied its soil, climate, water supply and aU that makes for productivity plus a good place to live, and chose what is now Chlco The- Mexican government made him a grant, and the City of Chico, with its 13,000 peo ple is the center of the grant and the 2500 acres of Bidwell Orchards we are offering you now. The richest soil, the best water facilities and the finest location in all this great com munity is Bidwell Orchards. The land lies right against the City of Chico. the city limits of Chlco cover a portion of , the Bidwell Orchards. The Bidwell Orchards are just across tha street from Chlco. To live in Chico or anywhere nearby is to live" in one of the most pregressive, pros perous, up-to-date communities in the United States. , To Uve on this soil and under these condi tions Is attractive from the esthetic as well as the economical point of view. And all these things are offered you on terms allowing seven years for payment, with only 10 per cent down. Read that last paragraph again. It says seven years for payment and only 10 per cent down. Nowhere else can you buy such land, such soil, such magnificent trees, and full bearing orchards, in such a climate. In such a community, on such terms. But you must see them. Tou must see Bidwell , Orchards. Tou must feel the warmth of 1 the soil to realize its richness, its fertil ity and the climate. Eere the laborer may work in the field every day In the year, and he may plow this rich loam every day in the year. He may cultivate It and enjoy the profits of his crops while paying for it, and prac tically he may buy it with our money. Come to see Bidwell Orchards. In the mean time write to ASXTB K. K.
