THURSDAY July '6, 1905 K 'li 'COMING. It is pracUoaliy assured that tihe Columbia Southern railroad will extend from Shaniko to this !$ace during the coming twelve months. While the .full report of the trip of investigation made ki to this section of tke state by representatives of the Harrisoan kitereets has probably not yet peached headquarters, the na ture of the report, is known, and the fact that Central Oregonis iu dire need of better transporta tion facilities and is abundantly able to support a railroad, has unquestionably been estab lished. The next step will be the order foi construction to begin, and then, the beginning of an era of wonderful growti, and. development throughout Central Oregon. The moat recent information regarding the extension of thef Columbia Southern is to the effect that only fifty miles of road will be built during the coming year. This wonld tap all of the great wheat belt sur rounding this place, and would indicate that Madras is the ob jective point of the immediate plans of extension. Large areas ;ire already under cultivation throughout the entire stretch of territory within a radiu3 of 15 miles of this place and the ur gent need of better transporta tion facilties for the marketing of the product of this territory was manifest to the railroad representatives who made a rarefnl and intelligent study of the conditions which prevail here. This is the territory upon which the burden of lackof trans portation rests most heavily at this time, and to view it from their purely business stand point, this is the territory from which the railroad will draw its primany support. The'ail load to this point affords easy acceas to the irrigated districts farther south, and in the very near future the development there will demand the further extension of the road. It may be that the railroad will hasten the development of the country sourh of here by pushing, the fXtension through to Bend, bur the conclusions above are indi cated by the reports of the com mittee sent to investigate. A petition asking for the establishment of a stage route between Heisler and this place is being circulated for signa turesiSthis weeU. ,yhen a good proportion of the names of patrons of this office has been secured, the petitiou will be for warded to the postal depart ment at Washington, and it is hoped that some immediate ac tion will be -taken in the matter, pne stumbling block iu the way of the creation of this route has been the fact that a portion of the road over which the mail ronte would have to pass was Hot an established county road, but passed through and over private property, but this ob jection will soon be removed as it is quite likely a county road all the way through to rteisler will be established at thf pres-' ent session of the county cour;. The new mail route, if it is cre ated, will be a great improve ment over, the present cirouitousj roue ovt?r which our mails have to pass, and will Avoid a delay of ni least 4 hours in the de livery cJtour outgoing mails. (President Et & Lytle of the C. S. Ry, and his party of 0. R. N. officials, returned from Bend Tuestbiy..

The Observer does not hesitate to predipt that something will be doing pretty quick along the lines of the many timea.thwarted Columbia Southern Railway extension. Moro Observer. Antelope Herald: X C. Ed wards, C. M. Cartwright and two prominent mining men from Sampler were in town on Wed neadaj'' evening, and on Thurs day morning the party left for Aahwocd, where the Surapter men will inspect the property fuf the Oregon King Mining Co. :l reported that there is a deal o for the purchase of the property by a syndicate of Sumpter capitalists, of which the two gentleman are repre sentatives. An Indian mortar 8 inches high, and a peatal to match it, were unearthed near Bend, re- centlj', from amongst the roots of a 250 years oldt Juniper Both are of a Mne textured lava rook, worn smooth apparently by use in crushing seeds and berries for ancient habitants of the Inland Empire. Ex. A Portland fur dealer says that despite &e fact that the st&te has removed: the bonsty fur coyote scalps, more skins are received iu the market thau ever before. It is estimated that not less than 15.00Oof these animals aire killed annually in Oregon, but that the number living is on the increase. Ex. Frog Springs and Vicinity.
