TJie Narrow Uanire Bnl on ibe W ea n address to the farmers ol Yamhill. Poik and Benton counties haslieeu printed, urging the building of the Dayton, Sheri dan a, id Grand Ronde narrow gauge rail road from its present termination in Yam hill to Yaquina Bay. Thirty miles of the road, now completed, is in litigation, and will be sohl between now anil next June. I'he indications are that it the people along the line of tlie road do not lestir themselves the W. O. Railroad Company will pur chase this thirty miles of completed road. and use it as a feeder to their road, and the country lie put under tribute forever to tlie broad gauge road. It the people interested along the line of the completed and contemplated road will organize, buy in tbe road, suhscrilie the necess.iry stock and complete the road to Yaqnina Bay. they will assure to themselves continued low rates of tare and freight. The compe tition between the two roads will keep prices down, while if the W. O. Railroad be permitted to gobbie up the enterprise. Hitcs will be doubled, and tlie firmer will realize from 20 to 30 per cent, less tor his grain than he otherwise would. On the face of it. taking the address to be a true statement of the matter, it is a matter of tbe deepest interest to the citizens of tliose counties, and if they are disposed to help themselves the present circumstances are more favorable than they probably ever wil lie again for thorn to do so. It is said that $78,000 will furnish enough iron to com plete the road tr' King's valley, and the farmers along the line will do the grading at tlieir own cost. A little effort and the road can be secured in the interest of the farmer, and the tbe general interests of the three counties vastly increased. Will the farmers take hold of tlie matter ?
