ROBINSON AND Co. . t GENERAL MERCHANTS, MADRAS, OREGON HAMMONDJHOLDS KEY COULD BE FIRST INTO CENTRAL OREGON Coryallla St aatorn Must Cross Cascades Or Its Importanco Will Greatly Diminish. Although the announcement that President A. B. Hammond, of the Corvfillis & Eastern rail road, contemplates building in to Central Oregon next year is generally considered, to b.e only a bluff in the railroad, gaine, the master cannot fail to attract serious thought in P,f ex isting facts. Th,e fa.pt tha,t give? most strength, to, the position oX the CorvaHis fc Extern, with re gard to future in Central Ore gon, is that this line could be pushed well into this section of the state months before any other line could reach it. With an early start in the Spring the "next year" promise of Presi-1 dent Hammond could be an aotual fact. It will take two yeara for the Oregon Trunk, now building up the Deschutes river, to get trains into Madras. The Harriman road could not be built across the Cascades from Natron to Walker's Basin and a line run north into Crook county in much less than three years. Hammond has almost a year's time to his credit, in holding the key to Central Oregon at the present time. Coming into the Deschutes valley by way of SiBters and Tnmalo, his road would lirst strike the great pine timber belt and the iriigated region and hold tributary all of the Laidlaw, Bend, Redmond and Prineville territory, with a terminus at Laidlaw, where the survey crosses tne JJescIiutes river. There is, at least, this much to beckon Hammond into Central Oregon. But behind him there is yet a driving force. Although Mr. Hammond bought the Corvallis & Eastern for 6100,000, and with it some ships which be later sold for enough to cover i he purchase price, leaving him i he railroad as clear profit, the fact still remains that the rail road practically runs from mwhere to nowhere and barely pays naming expenses. Unless the Corvallis & Eas tern is extended at JeaBt into Central Oregon, and that before any other railroad comes into this territory, that road can never come to be one of any importance, and will be con lined to the possibilities at forded between Idunha and and Yaquina Bay. Hammond holds a strong po sition m the railroad game m this state, IDs route into Cen- ral Oregon is as good as any t not the best Hans-mountain utile into this m otiuii, and in he mattei of iim. he has fully i year to his credit, for his oiul can he built in that much ess time than un of the other uoposed roads. He is said to be worth $15,000,000, and can build the umii with his own money, and lie nays lie intends o do so. The value of his road ies largely in. his ability to be he liist to occupy the Central Oregon field. It' he does so, lowevor, he wih have to "be uu and doing", lor JNeisoti and his Oregon Trunk Line are pecking along up the Deadlines oanvou. For Sale. Two Jsrsoy heifers.

The Haycreek Coal .Mina company, whiph owns a num; . ber of coal prospects near Hay creek is making preparations, for placing this coal upon tho Brnpiville market during the coming Winter, to take the place of the juniper wood which is. used there now for fuel. Thorough tests have been made aqd. it is believed tht the qual ity ot the coal is. gopd; Mem bers of. the coiflpany state that recent reports, phovy their coal to bo similar tot the Hock Springs, Wyoming, coal. The coal vein is about three feet in thickness, and recent develop ment work seems to indicate that these coal measures are extensive enough to be of great importance. Arrangements are being, made now to have coal hauled from the mines to Prineville, where it can be sold at about $10.50 per ton, which is the price at which Rock Springs coal is sold at the end of the railroad at Shaniko. Coal at 12 a ton is said to be as cheap as juniper wood at $6 per cord. The coal can be mined at an. expense ot not to exceed 3 per- on, even with their present crude methods, and allowing 1 per ton for handling and sacking and 5.50 per ton for hauling, there would still be a, profit of 1 delivered in Prine ville at the Shaniko price, These are the figures at which i he company bases its present expressed intention of market ing ooal at Prineville. The company is doing con siderable development work at their property, A tunnel 160 feet long has been run under the vein, cutting the vein at a, depth of 100 feet below thb cropping. They now plan to drift 100 feet along the vein. ANOTHER DESCHUTES RAILROAD Tucoma, Aug. 6. Articles of incorporation were filed today !y J. C.
