THURSDAY July n, 1907 STILL THEY COME Central Oregon is gridironed with ruilroiid surveys with the emphasis on the word "surveys." Every few days there is n new assortment ol engineers and promoters in this territory and the supply is apparently inexhaustible. The ues I ion of which will build jhto Central Oregon first, and when, has more intricacies than .the mathematical puzzle 'IIot ,01dls Ann?" and no one has . claimed the prize of a compos ite picture of E II. Harrim-iti and W. W. Cotton, for a correci solution of the problem. The : latest scare is from the Tygh Yalley Bee. which prints the. following: J .. "In Camas. Prairie about 20 .miles west of Wnpiintia i camped a surveying party ol perhaps 20 men, who from all -reports are surveying and try .ing'to locate the most practical route from Portland to the Agency Plains country for an electric railway. The j' have alreadjr run thei; line fiom-'Poitland b' way of ,Mt. Hood as far as their preseur .camp, but the route they will take from there t" the Plains is not definitel' understood. The Oregon Light & Powei Companj' of Portland is behind tlie project and from present .conditions the outlook for the road is very favorable. - The partj'.is headed by a . Mr. Ha nee and he, like all oilier s rail way magnates, is loath to give out any information otliei titan has ahead' been stated. He, however, speaks vtrjT favor nhy i.of the country through whioh the road is to run and expresses himself with assuring .terms that the road will be "built' The Harriman system litis $700,000 for a tunnel to get into .Portland from territory already abundantly supplied with mil roads Paget Sound and nothing for a railroad from a territory' Central Oregon which has no railroads and will have none, perhaps, tirf Jlarri rrian geis ready. Has Mr. Harriuian no duty to the public dependent on his railroads foi transportati n .that he can be obliged 10 fuliillf Apparently not. Certainly Jitj has none which he acknowledges and freely discharges. Oregonian. BIG GROWD CELEBRATES (Oontinut'd from fiiht page.) 6adence of uailz and two step the evening glided into the wee 1 0.1 "i Biun Hours 01 tne morning .The 7 "before the dauciilg was ended. ' Madras enjoyed her portion ' 'i'JjiB hostess 011 the Fourth, and Jjiail occasion to be proud of Ihe ItiVga and orderly crowd which 'participated in her celebration. Thtkvisitors, too, 'appeared to enjgythe occasion and to enter into tile spirit of the celebra tion.' iNo a(cidents were re .. ported, audthe day was free from incideuis that might have marred the pleasure of it. In years to come Madras will have other celebrations, and doubt less bigger ones, but it will' not entertain a nicer crowd, or a bettor-natured one than it did pn July 4, 1007.

They Were told that ouo would be furbished after July J, and 1 naked ifthey would llkoto havo Mr. J)i7.nej returned to thfin in thatcnpaeltv; ther answer was a united protest. They say Mr, nlzuey wits quarrelsome when ho was hlaek smitb, did not attend to their work promptly and had. two or three fijihtf) with some of the. Indians. My sutyies tion was made for thupurposeof ettinn their true opinion of Mr. Dissney. T next informtMl them that Mr. Diznoy desired permission to build a ferry or extern! 11 eanle across the uesrnutes Uivor to assist him in jotting across with the mail and to this they all objected." Continuing, the Suporvisor says that Mr. Dizncv's officious mid meddlesome disposition and desire for notoriety and to injure Superintendent Covey, have prompted him to liie cluirges ijnd fur nish material for the newspaper articles, all of which are without foundation. He concludes his report with the belief that the Office would be justified in askiny tlmt Mr. Dtanev be relieved from his contract for carrying the mails. Very Respectfully, 1 C. F.

Deschutes Fishes A feature of the big Fourth of Jul' celebration at Bend was' a trout barbecue. Of this part of the day's program the fBeiid Bnllet'n says: "Then cairn the iand uout baroecue and liasket dinner. Numerous tables had been made for ihe occasion. These were soon distributed over the mounds in ihe shade of the trees and various families, cliques and neigh lioilinnd crowds were gathered around 1 hem unpacking ihe good things fioni their dinner baskets. And during all this time Chailey Coil or and hi.s corps of assist ants were buv over a great -tone stove, frying those de dcious Deschutes trout. This was undoubtedly the chief fea. tare of the day. For about three hours these men were kept my supphing the hun gry crowd, and when their task was finished they had served close to 3 000 trout. The two crews sem out caught ahout 5,500 iih. These were added to' by the catch o a few individu il lisherinen, bringing the total up to 3.000. It is doubtful if ihere has ever been in the United States a similar event, wheie 1,)00 people gathered beneath the' big pine", beside ihe running water and feasted on tooihsoniH trout until all wt-re satislied and none weni away hungry'. Where is There aiioiher community in which this could be done and the fish caught legitimately, no traps, neis or other unlawful contriv ances having been used?" 4t ARE SERVING SENTENCE M. R. Biggs and Dr. Van Gesncr Confinod In Multnomah Jail Marion R Bigijs is now serv ing his sentence in the Mulmo mnli County Jail; convicted of subornation of perjury in connection with the Blue Mountain land frauds. Bigs will serve a sentence, of ten months and in addition, will pay a fine of $500. After ""his arrest Bigg's filed a petition with the Federal Court asiung that his place of incarceration be changed from the Multnomah County Jail 10 the Crook County Jail. His reason was that he has several arms in'Crook Cojiniy that he should be neat in order to direct their management, ' and also that his wife, who is in Prifioville, is ill. This petition was not granted, the Court stating that it would bo gov erned in this matter by the exigencies of the future. I)r. Alouzo Vim Gesner lias also begun serving his live- months sentence in the Multno mah County Jail, lie was convicted in connection with Bigg and W illiainson on the same charges, and lira sentence includes tile pay meiit;ol' a line olSlOtK) The en s against 'c.' 0n giossnmn Williamson, who was convicted at the Mime time with Biggs and' llr.
