Bend Bulletin. .accommodate without damage to the forests, and today that policy is immensely popular with all stockmen throughout the "West for the reason-that the range is bujug preserved for them instead of being destroyed. It may be said that no man in the government service has -done more to prevent the waste and destruction of the natural wealth of the nation, .and in future generation? our carefully preserved and well kept forests will be a memorial to the wis dom of his far-sighted policj THE DUFUR EXTENSION The Columbia & Great South ern Railroad, which two years ago began in a modest way to build a railroad from The Dalles to the rich wheat country lying to the south of that city, has announced its intention of extending the line from its present terminus at Dufur fur ther into Central Oregon. Build ing of the road has resulted in development of new territory that is now producing a large traffic, and it also greatly in creased the profits of the old producers who fur man' years were obliged to spend about all of the profits of their work ixi getting their crop to market. This new-line was financed by Jocal capitalists of Seattle and Portland, and for that reason its resources have never been Frauk May of Bend has announced his candidacy for county surveyor on the Repub lican ticket. Mr. May's qualifi cations for the office are highly spoken of by the people of that section, and his candidacy is strongly endorsed by all who know him. Dance Schedule x &&&& & $ work begins will witness the completion of the line from Gresham to Bull Run, A.steani shovel is at work on one of the biff cuts near Gresham, this cut being 24 feet deep and 1500 feet long. Much of the grade is already completed, and steel rails are already ou the ground, ready to be laid. The big power plant at Bull Run is to furnish power for Portland, and the rush work on the line between Gresham and Bull Run is for the purpose of completing the line that the big machinery may be taken in. The character of the work, which at great expense in con struction hiis secured an easy grade up the mountain, is be lieved to indicate that Bull Run will not long be the terminus of the Mount Hood line, and this view of it is supported by the fact that last year engineers of tne Mt. 1100a Jine ran lines down 'the east side of Mt. Hood and down the Warmspring River, wlrile other engineers ol that company made a recon noissance through this section. EDISON PIIOXOGHAl'IIS ami rcconla A. C. rJanfonl, ajjent, -Madras, Or.
