The subject of the construction of
wooden railroad from this city to Lebanon
is receiving some attention. , Such a road,
it is said, will cost not over $1,000 per
mile, and would be a matter of great con
venience to the people ol Lebanon and
Albany Prairie. It would pay from the
" first jump." T)f course, In time,""Snch a
road would grow into a railroad with Iron
track, locomotives and cars; but for the
present, it is argued, a wooden-track, with
cars propelled by horse-power, would an.
swer all tlie demands and pay good divi
dends.

; The citizens of Lebanon are canvassing
the subject of building locks on the Albany
& Santiam Canal, so as to render the Canal
a navigable' stream from tlie head to its
mouth, and are urging its necessity, not
only as a great convenience to that whole
section. Including the Forks of the Santiam.
but as a ma tter of profit to the Canal Com
pany.; Probably It would require but three
locks, the construction of which would not
require an exhorbltant sum,: to render the
Canal navigable. Boats could be loaded at
Lebanon, and floated down to this city,
delivering their freight either at the depot
of the O. & C. Railroad or at warehouses
on tne river bank. .With the necessary
locks the current; would be much less rapid.
and the wash in the Canal would be much
less, while tlie depth of water in the Canal
would be greater.; If we are correctly in
formed, the people of Lebanon are deeply
Interested In the matter, and will subscribe
liberally in aid of such Improvement.
