The first survey for railroad purposes was made' by John Hulburt in 1SSI. The stirvev was made from Coos Bar to Roseburg, and from this city np the north prong of Deer creek and over the divide to the Xorth Vinpqna river in an almost direct line to the pa.s south .of Mount Thielsen Utl he broad plain in 'the northern part of Klamath county. His survey extended to a point north of the Klamath marsh. In the year 1900 a party of surveyors in the interest of Xew York railroad magnates, started out from Salt Lake City, Utah, and ran a line running south of Salt Lake and thence in a northwesterly direction to Terrace, where the Central Pacific line was crossed, and continuing tth'e survey the line aa ran cut across the northeast corner of Nevada into Idaho where it struck the middle fortof the Owyhee river, to near the junction of Crooked creek.. The line as run from that point was nearly a direct line westward, leav ing Harney lake to the north and Cedar mountain to the south. Continuing be tween Silver and Summer bikes to the north of Klamath marsh ani to the fountain head of the XoKth Umpqua where it ceased. Copies of this survey are on file in Philadelphia, Xew York and Chicago, and just as soon the Xew Rock Island, Denver and Salt Lake City line is . finished, or even before, work will commence on the extension from Salt Lake City Roseburg on the route indicated. It is said bv railroad men who have looked at the survey from Salt Lake City the pass south of Mount Thielsen to lie the best road survev ever made from the Rocky mountains to the Cascade Sierra Nevada mountains, as the sur vey for scores of miles at a stretch runs across a -comparatively level country and could be built for less than one half the cost of the Central Pacific 'road and for less than the Oregon Short line, and the distance from Denver to Pacific porta would be shortened from two to three hundred plated system. miles by the contem THE NOVEMBER ELECTION. On Tuesday the fall election in nearly every state of the Union was - held. In the east the Republicans "owing to labor troubles and strikes lost heavily, for tens . of thousands of citizens voted with the Democratic party. This was broogh' about by the quasi promise that if the Democrats had a majority in Congress that the party" would advocate verv radical measures regarding government ownership of the coal mines. The iJemocratic party has always been very long on promise and short on payment. but their promises of altmian benefit to be derived by the laboring classes has always caught votes not withstand ing lue lact mat everv time me demo crats got in power they found the laboring masses with a full dinner pjil and at the end ot their administration the pail was empty and suffering and starvation resulted in all the Eastern cities. In the election the Republicans expected to lose many seats in Congress and tlie most sanguine exiectations were to have a majority of from 15 to 20. From all reiwrts it seems that the majority will be 20. While the loss was heavy in the Eastern states, the west enjoying Republican prosperity voted Vt increase the blessings they . enjoyed and California, Idaho, Washington, North and South Dakota and Montana wheeled into line while Colorado the borne of sil ver fanaticism gave two republican con gressman odt of four. Nevada with one congressman went eilver-pop-deroo- ' cratic; Chicago has gone Republican and New York ' state by about 15,000, No doubt but what the personal popa larity of President Roosevelt and ids prompt action in bringing , about arbi iration between the coal miners and operators in the east had much to do in preventing a regular landslide to the socialistic ideas promulgated by the New York politieans and the leaden of other movements inimical to the Ko- publican principles of good government The majority in Congress throws the entire burdea of resjtonsibility for jieace and prosierity for the next two years upon the party that is slow to promise but quick on fulfillment and the pledge made by the Republicans before the election will lie most faithfully carried oat in all parts of the UnitedStates' vast domain. One principle that the elec tion has settled is: The Philippines w illtorever remain as territory or states of the United States of America. "W E TOLD YOU SO." . When Chai H. Fisher severed bis relations with the Eosebarg Review B8 its editor, and it we sunonnped that with R. S. Sheridun he would become associated in the publication of the Boise Capital News, a 'paper to be" made the official state organ of the Idaho Democracy, then in full power, the Plaikdealeb predicted that at Idaho's next 6late election the Republicans woold elect their entire stale and congressional tickets. By tb. authentic election returns now at bard from that stale the elec tion of Tuesday has proven our prophesy of two years ago, alas, too true, the Republicans having won a signsl victory throughout the state. Wiib such smHli caliber, nnscrnpn Jous ward politicians as the manage ment of i be Boise Capital News and II McBroom, of the Grangeville paper, pacipalatiag the Democrato politics of Idaho the result could not have been otherwise. However, the people of Idaho 6eeni to have dropped onto the fellows much quicker than they did in this county and state, where they, through their question able politics wrecked local and conn ty democracy and enabled the Re pnblicans to carry tue day against all odds. This combination of Democratic tricksters would place old Missouri or even Texas in the Republican column if allowed to direct the Democracy of . those states through a few campaigns. A FINE SHOWING. It will be observed by reference to the recent semi-annnal statement of the county's finance? that during the past six months $4,000 of the coun ty's indebtedness was paid off, re gardless of the extra heavy expenses incurred by the county, in road and bridge building. It will also be ob served that the receipts of the County Clerk's office alone fcr the month of October aggregated f-WO, a record that has never been equalled in the count t's history. .Thus, will be seen the results of a roKre98vtS business-like Republican administra tion. New roads and bridges are being built, county improvements are being kept up in first-class shape and the county indebtedness is being re duced at the rate of nearly $1000 per month. What a contrast to the old Union and Democratic regime, when county improvements were at a standstill and the county's bridges were decaying and collapsing, while the county indebtedness was only de creasing at about the same rate it is today. The old stereotyped cam paign assertion that "a republican' county conrt is running the county in debt at the rate of $1000 a month,' would hppear humorous today.

The lives and projierty of our citizen and farmers are daily in danger at the railroad crossing on Lane street in this city, and the council should take some action to comjel the S. P. Co. ti place a flag-man theie. to warn the pnblic wh-n a train is approaching, an whether or not it is safe for them to pass.- At the present time there are" five side tracks besides the main line - crossing Lane street, and the yard, is risnally so blocked that there are a sjring of box cars on each of the side tracks, allowing only the distance of the mad war for passage of teams and pedestrians and closing out any view whatever ' to warn tltemofthe approach of a train or an engine, making it a very dangerous crossing, especially if one haptens to have a fractious team, as it lias oecured several times that the driver being un able to see the approaching train has been caught with his horses head almost against the train barely stopping j time to save disaster. All other crossings should be supplied with warning bells, asjenoene ami several others cities this state are at present. Some action should 1 taken before it is too late. Wilbur Items?

Ashland Abduction Results in a Wed ding in Portland. ' The closing chapter of the sensational affair related on our first vwige is as fol lows : Portland, Nov. 5. Miss Myrtle Tar kor, the 17-year old girl, who so mystcri ously disappeared from her Ashland home late last week, was located in this city yesterday by her father nnd..lVU Com Its, of Ashland, the joung man ac cused of her abduction. The two pro ceeded at once to Justice Reid's court where they were married, which closes the last chapter iu a rather sensational affair and is the sequel to the father's hunt for his child. The couple arranged for the marriage by appointment .. the day before, and appeared before -the justice while he was on the bench. He adjourned long enough to tie tho knot, with those concerned in the court case as onlookers, and pressed into service as witnesses W. W. Watt-; and C. A. Mc Carger. S. A. Parker, father of the girl, was present and kissed tho bride in an affectionate manner after the ceremony. Whatever animosities inight have arisen between the contracting parties before the ceremony seemed to have leen buried, as nil three appeared to be on friendly terms. JOHNSON GRASS. Mnee coming to Oregon the editor bus been asked unite frequently by cattle and sheep men what kind of grass, he would advise to be ilanted in. South west Oregon, aud after several weeks study of the question we lelieve Uuit fo all purposes the above grass is lst for the livestock industry, but at the same time it is a terrible nuisance in purely agricultural land ; and the editor writes thus from actual personal exierience. We have been shown several kinds of grass in Oregon that was lielieved to ll? Johnson grass but was not; and per haps as our knowledge of the plant may be of service to ot.-.era we will slate : The seed of the Johnson grass is the same in size, form and color as canary seed or the seed put up in packages and lalteled canary. sted for birds. The plaut thrives best in a deep damp soil and as it is a very rank and free grower it rapidly drinks up the moisture from the soil. We know that it fre-iuentlv throws up strong shoots or stems from the earth tliat will grow three inches in 24 hours. If we were going to sow grass for past nre with the idea of killing out weeds or ferns it would lie this grass. On our farm we have known it to grow six feet high in the swales and average four feet in height all over the field at cutthig time, which is when the plant U iu Moom. In Oregon, we have no doubt but what in favored localities it would make two or three crops each year." When cured on the stein cattle will eat it to the gronnd and when cut for hay we have known it to make two, if not three cuttings and averaged 2 tons to the acre and sometimes much more at each cutting. If it gets startol in the farming land we are fully iersnadod that it would lie next to iinssil.le to clear the land of it exesptby devoting the bind to constant pasturage for sheep for two or three years for if the grass is not allowed to ripen seed it dies out a the roots. - Tlie method of projia-a't ion by seed and also tuberous stems which is run under the soil. These stems in rich land are frequently as large around as a mans middle finger, and have linen known to penetrate the earth to a depth r-j. arv. w kiiii-! t'i t'iiit: .a , . the surface. On sueh tulierous stems or roots are numerous sprout eyes -which in turn send np irrasjj stems to tlie surface and they in turn form bunches and send out more tuiicrs. The lnl-2ras roots are excellent ho feed but hogs have never been known to till the crop as they only cultivate the land for the grass to prow in. For several vears iist on the plains of north-west Texas, it was onr custom to commence to plow np the Johnson grass fields in the months of February and March ami let all the cat tle on the far m follow the plow aud eat the tuberous stems and llrv would thrive 011 irri. .001-11 njun oiimi 0011011; j , ..!. t 1 M:i I. 1.1 ...! I the amount f milk iif three or four days. The cattle would leave enoughof the bro ken stems in the ground to make another crop of hay. We cut as much as two tons of cured hay from an acre of land in Jnly from land sowed with seed in tlie latter part of March. The grass we fully believe would stand the drought of the summer months and afford splendid pasturage for live sbek of all kinds. In.. Texas it is ate ravenously by cattle, horses, sheep and goats and as we have said hogs will thrive on the tuberous roots and make a splendid growth but they will not get very fat on the diet. The grass we lielieve would make a good return if disced in on the scrub oak land or in any part of the state west of the Cascade range clear of dense timber or brush. .We have known of the seed being sown on w hich the eockleburs almost covered the ground, and it killed out the eockleburs. In some parts of Texas it is an offense to plant the seed or to drive over the public; roads with a load of Johnson grass hay liecatiKC when it once gets starled in the cotton, sugar and rice lands it seems to lie im possible to kill it out. We intend to continue article of in terest to farmers and stock raisers, from week to week and aive actual practical experience along the line indicated. The Great Central Railroad. The Plaixdealek is informed bv Ma jor Kinnev that the general offices of the above road w ill next-week lie moved from Portland to Roseburg and that twenty cottage" residences will be imme diately erected on the new survey north of town.
