Ilos-iys: "1 hnd a long trip w hen I came out here. Wns four months to Johannes burg, and four months here. There Is no railroad, ao I came with a lot of ox wagons, 10 on each wagon. We had lots of hunting nud llshing. The country wns nil brush und there wus no giMsi timiK-r. nicy get an oi uieir lumber from Oregon, nud It costs tk) cents a foot. The cllmuto Is hard to Is-at.

Old Times. Hero I what nn East Oregonlan reMrter claimed an old '4t)er said about tho railroad: "Blast tho dam tiling, I say, I wish It had never come Into the country. Front the time the tlrst truiu went through I haven't been worth anything. But I used to have a Keketlulof twenties ull the time, and those were good times; every one hud plenty of cash. It came easy anu went as easy as u came, jib fellow got hnrd up he could always borrow and no ono hesitated to loan. I used tn run a pack truiu of nigh on a hundred mules and sometimes go from Umatilla to Boise. Money? Why I mudu slathers of it. Rut since tho rtky rnllroud came, I've been busted, any, daiiin the railroad anyway. I wlah every car In the country would run oil' the docks nt Astoria when the new road Is built there, and fall Into the Pacific. I'd start out a pack train Inside of six days and once more the country would seem liko Itself." Wonderful Yields.
