THURSDAY - SEPT. 17, I9o8 A CORRECTION The Pioneer published a dis patch from Prineville last week, in which reference was made to some trouble in the Shaniko water supply two years ngo. The article in question -aa ob jectionable to Mr. J. 0. Powlie, of Shaniko, who has charge of the water system at that pl.au, and who requests that we cor rect any impression that there is anything wrong with the Shaniko water. The correction is very gladly made. In fact, there was not, so far as we can eee, anything in the article in question to the disparagement of the Shaniko water. It was Stated that the trouble was found to be in the reservoir, which statement presupposes an investigation, and shows a proper care of their water sup ply. Mr. Powlie says, however, that there was no trouble of any kind, and we are very glad to make this correction. OREGON TRUNK SECUR ING RIGHT-OF-WAY Professor Pulton says the at tendance will reach' 100 within the next 10 days or two weeks, and that there will be seven or eight new pupils in the high school department, as that many more havu ahead' nr ninged 10 join those classes. This will give an enrollment of 10 or 17 in the high school grades, which is a good start tor the iit st year of (hat depart ment in the Madras school. Prof. Pulton, Prof. Cook and Miss Clara Horney were all in their places Monday when school opened and have their clas-es organized, and the ensuing year promises to be a very success ful one for the Madras public sch ol. -i- HARRIMAN SURVEYORS ON TROUT GREEK Senator Rand of Vancouver, Washington, arrived in Madras last Tuesda' mrrning, and the report is current that he is here for the purpose of securing right-of-way for the Oregon Trunk Line. Senator Rand was the agent of the Harriman inter ests in securing right-of-way on ihe North bank of the Colum bia during the memorable figlit between the Hill and Harriman interests over the North Bank line. .At the present time, how ever, he is in the service of the Oregon Trunk Line, reputed to have the backing of the Hill interests but in any event inim ical to the Harriman monopoly of the transportation of central Oregon. And, if the predicted railroad war for the occupation of the Descbures canyon should materialize, Senator Rand will fend himself lined up agaiiiPt his old affiliations in the strug gle for right-of way. The possi bility of such a contingency, however, is very remote. The arrival of the Oregon Tiunk Line's right-of-way agent, eo closely following the definite location of their line, strongly indicates thatxhere will be no delay in the commencement of "construction work. The Ore gon Trunk has already secured some right-of way on the lower Deschutes, and their represent ative should expeiience no diffi culty in securing right of way in this section. There is every indication that the Oregon Trunk Line people are going to build into this section at once, and the Deschutes canyon road is the one which would mean the most to all the interests of this section. MADRAS PUBLIC SCHOOL BEGINS FALL TERM The Madras public school opened last Monday with nn enrollment of 70 pupils, 9 iu the L'ttli school grades, 0 in the Intermediate, and $'1 in the pri mary department This enroll ia turner than on the opening day to y ear ' and it CviirbB increased by the later iln'tra'nce of Alfoltf who could A party of 15 railroad" snrvej' ors are reported to be camped at-Sagebrush Spring, and to be running a line down Trout Creek to the Deschutes. The part' is believed to be in the Harriman employ, as they are not connected with the Oregon Trunk Line. The Hairiman in terests have a survey into this countrj' from the North, known as the Columbia Southern Ex tension Wirve', and connecting with their line at Shaniko. Prom this point on South as far as Bend they have two sur veys, tlie Columbia Southern Extension and the Oregon East ern, the latter of which starts at this place. The presence of the Harriman surveyors on Trout creek may mean that the Harriman inter ests will try to find a way out of the Deschutes canj'ou up Tiout creek, if they build their promised Central Oregon road up the Deschutes. With the Oregon Trunk controlling the Willow creek pass out of the canyon, that company appears to have the Harriman people on the "two horns of a dilemma," as far as the Deschutes route is concerned, for the only alterha tive the Harriman line would have would be to come out up Trout creek, or else build on up the Deschutes.
