Askyotirdftggl&tfortree booklet coming Fall will witness tho commence mcnt of actual railroad construction in Crook county. Tho committee having tho enterprise in charge have committed themselves to no dlflnito routo and will not jjntil the subscription has been secured and it has been definitely assured that tho undertaking will be a success. This much has been decided upon, that Crook county will have rail transporta tion, connecting it with Portland, and touching at Bend, Frineville and Mad ras. When the preliminaries have reached tie proper stage, the moat feas iblo and practicable route will be chosen. It may be said that tho com mittee at present Jeans toward the extension of the flhaniko line, for the reason that that line is nearest to the territory to be reached and can be built njore cheaply and more quickly than any other ljne into this territory. And, after all . these years of waiting for a railroad, tjme is of the very essence of importance to fhis long-neglected terri tory. The pjd Columbia Southern Rail way extension survey, made five years ago, is said to havo been carefully made and to be a good line, and if the Shan iko line is extended, that survey will be followed.. The right-of-way contracts between this place and Lamonta follow that survey. STRIKE OIL fN THE DUFUR COUNTRY The Bevis-May Oil Company has very bright indications of striking oil in paying quantities in their well now be ing drilled on Ramsey creek a few miles above town, says the Dufur Dispatch. While drilling Tuesday morning oil was found to exist in small quantities and as tlit work advanced the oil be came more noticeable. When reachin; the depth of 310 feet a light flow of gas was found to escape from the hole and bubbling noises were heard at the bottom. This information was given to the Dis patch by Mr. Porter who has charge of the drilling operations and is about as conditions exist at the present time. Mr. Porter says the grade of oil is the same as the Pittsburg or Pennsylvania oil and that the indications for a large flow are the best he has ever seen. Drilling operations have been sus pended for a time on account of the drillers not being prepared to take care of the oil, and until the company can get a cap and some small pipe on the ground the work will be at a standstill. HAS WOMAN OPTICIAN Portland has a full-fledged woman op ticianthe only one in this part of the country. It was announced today that in the examinations just given by the State Board of Optometry examiners Mrs. Florence T. Cooper of 354 Clay street has passed successfully and will bo given a certificate to practice in this stato. Mrs. Cooper is the only woman who has ever passed the Oregon examina tions and she says that she will practice in Portland. She studied her profes sion in this city. There were seven other candidates, only one of whom, Dr. Golden of Maine, passed tho examinations of tho board. Portland Journal. Mrs. Cooper was formerly Florence Parrish, and is the daughter of Mrs. Rolando Parrish of Haycreek. PRINEVILLE DRY Tho saloons of Prinovillo closed their doors promptly at 12 o'clock Tuesday night and this city is now as dry as the strongest prohibitionist could wisli for. There was little intoxication and no dis orderly conduct or arrests. Much wine, beer and liquors was purchased on tho lust day, all to be cached away and ul timately used for medicinal purposes. An amusing feature of the day was the receipt by ovory family and man in town of tho catalogue of a Portland liquor house, which evidently is the first to mako a bid for tho Crook county trade Tho ministers even were not spared, and they sinilo in manifest ap preciation of the joke.

COMMISSIONER tEJJPP VISITS WARMSPRINQ Hea of Buroay of Indian Affairs ln opeptj ofpryatlon-rSees In Colotyrnto Commissioner fcpupp, head of tho. government Bureau J Indian Affairs, made a visit of inspppjjnn fo the Warm spring Reservation Jakf $yp,ek, spending several days at the agency ap fho guest of Superintendent Covey, fit- has beei) visiting tho various Indian respryations of the West, and camo on out tp jpspccj tho Warmspring Resryation wherp over 80Q Indians reside. The Warmspring reservation com prises in the neighborhood of 30 town? ships, much of it hilly land, but some o it along the creeks and on tho high levcj plateaus being good agricultural land; while there is also good timber land in; eluded in the reservation.. . Jt lies Nortlj of the Matolee rjver and West of tho Deschutes. The Warmsprjnga agency is attract? Ively located on Shitike Creek, and is supplied with many jnoderri convenir ences, such as electric lights, a steam laundry and a good water system. Many of the buijdlng haye been painted dur? ing the past year, apd the agency doubt less presented a pleasipg appearance to the Coippiissioner on hs visit there, He left the agency Wednesday of lasj week, gojng over to Wapinitia to attend the big celebration Friday and Satur day, in which the Indians from the res? ervation'parljcjpated, and from there on to Dufur to jta:e the train. At tho Wapinitia celebration there were Indian races, music by the Warrnspring band, and many, sports and games in which the Indians participated, all of which would be interesting to the bead of tho Indian department. Superintendent Covey accompanied the Commissioner on his trip out from the agency. COSTLY CELEBRATION OF NATION'S BIRTHDAY 72 Killed, 2736 Injured-FIre Losses Half A Million Death stalked in the wake of the cele bration of the Nation's birthday last Saturday, the list of deaths due entirely to accidents, attending the celebration being the largest in 10 years. Dp until Tuesday morning 72 deaths had been reported, with a list of casualties total ing 2730. The death list is the largest since 1899, but tho list of injuries at tending the celebration is only two thirds the average number for the last five years. This is regarded as an indi cation 'that the agitation in favor of a "safe and sane" Fourth is having its effect. Many of the larger cities this year prohibited entirely the discharge of fireworks, San Francisco being among the safe and sane cities. The loss by fire occasioned by fireworks in tho United States was more than a half million dollars this year, which is abovo the average for the past 10 years. Tho Nation's celebration was a i human lifo and property. costly one, in PROMINENT RAILROAD MAN HERE W. II. Hurlburt of Portland, ono of the candidates for railroad commis sioner in tho last election, was in town last Thursday. Mr. Hurlburt was at one time General Passenger Agent for tho 0, R. & N.
