Columbia Southern Sure
to Go that Far.
Portland Or., Aug. 2.1 All
Railroad men concerned in the
movement for extension of the
Columbia Southern railway into
Central Oregon havev joined in
$he recommendation tlmU -the
iroad be extended to Madias at
puce. There is no doubt thai
Ithis recommendation will be
fiic ted upon favorably iriy'Jtfew
.SSTork. Indeed, it is said upon
ood authority that there is al
ready assurance of action along
linesconcernirig winch there is
agreement among the men .win
have personalty jnspei ted the
:tield.
The doubt comes in on. the
divided recommendation. Sotm
Sof i he Ilarriman officialsrareriut-
"in favorer an imraediate"exte'n-.
sion to Benn;? some are: 'Some
'insist on building to Crooked
$ river. What will be done with
these recommendations can not
;be foretold at"this time. ? . t
When the. railroad advances
there will be an exodus from
t
i
iShauiko.
The railroad and warehouse
will move on to terminus. They
are not much in favor of halt
ing at Madras, .where the term
inus would, be , bit temporary
and would haidly justify put-

no waste in moving up to

"Wesconcnr in the Bulletin's
opinion that Madras will . be lite
iiret stopping place of the Co
lumbia Southern Railway in its
, -extension into Central Oregon,
but we must join .issue on the
proposition that any buildings
erected while Madras was the
terminus would be "waste"
whetvthe road moved on. Mad
ras is even now grow'ng stead
ily. It is the natural trading
point for a large section- of
-conn try. and when Jhat xuutry
becoieg properons with the
advent of the railroad, the pros
perity and growth of Madias
will follow. The town will nat
urally become of considerable
commercial importance in this
the country further apujth, for
tue.ettlexd of the Jftind .QQuntay
will soon reauire a jailrpad.as

and Bend the next, unless some
oth.ex.Mad- atgpar iji, ancjQKosa
ing the state from easttQ west,
makes tlje etensiQa o(. the Co
lumbia Southern from Mad
ras "on so 6 th simprabtioaole.
Sucli a flung ia,M within he
bounds -of pcwsibility, nrtd
wold mike Madras a perma
neht terminus. The Bend peo
ple have always contended that
an east and west road v.ould
best serve that country,, but Jthe
conditions are different here.
Their products would be mar
keted East; onrs at Portland.
Either the Columbia Southern
or the Great Southern wauld
carry our pioduct to our best
and closest market, and that is
what we want. And we have
reason to hope and believe that
tile Columbia,: Sohth,ern' will be
the firs t road "to tap this rich
section.

The Bend Bulletin has a story
fen last weekfs issuej which takes
all the wind out of the sailsTof
the would-be "knockers" who
have been saying - that it was
'"too frosty" to "raise ally kind
of.a, crop 9-t . that, place.. . The
story is to the.efl'ect, thatPad"

strawberry patch., which is j,ust
now producing its second crop

We have heard nothing from
the. well digging society which
as supposed to have Seen or
ganized on,., the. .Agency Plains
some time ago: It lias always
been a hard thirjg, in any com
munity, for a number of farm
'ersj to. th,nk audjipt together,
but until the residents, of the
Pjain3 can get together and
plan upon digging-a few wells
as a co-operative body, time
and money will continue to be
wasted in hauling water from the
Madras wells and. other places.
