Thin antaeoniHin was larKely for the purpose of securing control of the ntrnteiMC nointa on the surveys, in an endeavor to reduce the cost of con st Miction into the undeveloped territory of Central Oregon, whose vast area, rich in renources. has lonif been devoid of transpoitation facilities; partly owinfe' to topoKraphical difliculties, partly he- cause of unsettled conditions at other points between the two rival systems of the Northwest now buildini; into this section, but chiefly because there was no competition with the interests whote rail lines encircle the state. The canyon of the Deschute? River affords the only natural pass from the Columbia River to the high table lands of the inland empire, which both the Deschutes Railroad and the Oregon Trunk Line are endeavoring to reach at the earliest possible moment. There has been rivalry, with numerous con tests, for the most desirable locations below the mouth of Trout Creek. From that point the two roada take different courses South. The Harriman xoad on eavlng the Deschutes canyon, follows a rockv canvon for a distance, in whlcl the work of trading is very costly and necessarily slow for several miles. The Oregon Trunk Line .on its surveys up Willow Creek canyon from the DeE chutes ha8 practically the same difDcul- tiiM to overcome, but ludttinc Jrom a tion to announce the details at the pres- eovered by a South African astronomer. The comet Monday evening (from an,, amateur's point of view) appeared in,, the Western eky, slightly to the South, not far above the lfbrizon, and a short ent time, inasmuch as the budget has ,iiatance North of the evening star, e not yet been approved, but is in the nus The first glimpse of the comet Jg, bands of the Eastern officials of the sya- geen between 5:30 and 6:00 p. m.

Some idea of the equipment budget Tuesday evening the comet was again visible, but the weather was somewhat for the Oregon lines may be gathered from the tact that last year the appro priation allowed Mr. O'Brien was in ex cess of $2,000,000, which was nearly one- third of the entire appropriation for the whole Ilarriman system. At no time in he history ot these allied lines has there been the deflaand for betterment that the olhciflls are now facing. The new Deechutes Railway, . tvill 1 onmnleted into Central firwinn must be urovided with consid- orn lllo rnllini?-Ktock.

The areat struggle between tne jortnern linca nil d the Harriman system over mail contracts and high-class through the East, cannot be neg lected, while the normal growth oi frpiwM business for this territory will require an unusually large appropriation.

On this evening the tail appeared as if it curved sliehtly toward the South. The subjoined dispatch explains the. appearance q( the comet in this vicinity. San Jose, Cal., Jan. 18. Astronomer. R. G. Aitken. of the Lick Observatory, today gave the following ptateinept for- the Associated Press'. "The comet discovered in South Africa a day or two ago is brighter than the planet Venus. Jt was easily seen at the Lick Observatory at. noon today with, the naked eve. It was four degrees east of the sun apd. one-half of a degree north, of it, aiul was moving tawarq tne. northeast.
