In an editorial on tijp'ormit
tnPrcJal ndvahlkge- derived by
Portland from her water-level
railroads, the Oreouiaii snyi
"Paramount to nil other trans
porta Hon questions before the
oitj' today is the additiqu to
our matchless system of water
level railroad lines of the line
up Hie Deschutes, a line over
which a car started. 140 miles
inland can travel almost by
gravity to the Columbia river,
and thence on into Portland, at
a minimum expenditure for
power. No lime should be lost
in organising a movement that
will force the Government to do
what is right in this matter of
such vital importance to so vast
an area of territory."
The Deschutes route would
perpetuate the commercial su
premacy of Portland in the
great Central Oregon country,
and Portland business men are
doing all they can to make pos
sible the construction of that
road. Incidentally, it would
give this section no small
amount pf prestige to have a
water-level' haul to the Portland
markets, insuring least expense
in marketing all its products,
and correspondingly higher
X) rices here.

DEATH OF ED. KUTCHER
4 Piineville Review
, This city was deepljT shocked
at the sudden death of Edward
Jvntcher, which occurred about
b b'clock yesterday morning
after several days of semi-delir
ium. He was brought up Tuea
day from Hay creek for treat
ment, and while mentally un
balanced was able to eat and
le around town. Deceased vas
06 years old and a Mason. lie
janie to Crook county about 30
years ago and settled near.Hay
creek, where he has since re
sided. He was unmarried.
Death was due lo fsiulty
bear.t .action that forced too
much blood to the brain. The
ftlasonic lodge of this city has
taken charge of the funeral,
which will take place here to
day or tomorrow. Mr. Kutcher
bad been a great traveller in
liis earlier days, having been
around the world four different
times, and although an English
man by birth he became a Ma
eon in France, it is said, 40
years ago, and . served 25 years
in the United Sta,tes navj A
sister, near Haycreek, survives
him.
There will probably Ije fewer
accidents on the Cow Canyon
grade when the improvements
now under way are completed.
The priucipal work which is be
ing undertaken now is the
building of a new road in the
lower portion of the canj'on, to
avoid the steep, pull over the
horni but the money available
for the xtopose will be made to
go as far as possible, and it is
intended that the upper uortiou
of the grade also shall be im
proved. Cow Canyon grade
is one of the most dangeious
loads in Central Oregon, and
the accidents there have been
comparatively few, considering
the chat icter of.jhe.road.

This is the flood senson
Crooked river, owing to.the
melting suowa in he niquntains
from which the river is fed, and
the muddy f tonent which it
pours into, the Deechutes has
adly polluted the waters of that

T lie Deschutes has also raised
several feet below the mouth of
Crooked river as the result of
the high water in that stream.
THE GENTLEMAN'S AGREEMENT
The reported ,,geitlem,an'18
agreement" between Harriman
and flill regarding trallic mat
ters in Oregon, reached at their
Hcent San Francisco meeting,
doubtless also included an
agreement regarding the jivfus
on by Hill , of any of T-Iarri-pan's
sacred domain Jn this
state. If so, it puts a quietus
