GRIMES HAS A GOME BACK Ill Replies to J. W. Bennett's Statement Relative to the Port Commission. Win, Grimes this morning hnnded tho following self-explanatory letter -to tho Times for publication: Hon. J. W. Bonnett, Mnrshflold, Ore. My Dear Friend Joe I was sur prised last evening In readltig tlio Timed to sec that you had ngaln chased Mickey to tho newspaper of flco to put another ploco In tho pa per. Now Joo, you were not men tioned this time; why should you as en nio that you aro tho ono who Is responsible for tho holdup policy? Tho nown I gave was to tho effect that ono of tho representatives of nyllcsby & Co.'s Interests, who Imvo largo hold ings on tho Day, nnil naturally np prohonslvo ns to Its future develop mont, waB tho party that wns innk lng thp Inquiry. They were of tho opinion, however, thnt It was outside Interests nnd of considerable Import mice, so this could not lmvo been you, Joo. Now, Joo, I have boon waiting an opportunity for hoiiic tlmo to explain to you how you came not to bo on thnt port commission. You lmvo nuked tho question outright, whether tho deal had tho "earmarks of Okla homa or wns It a native-born Ore gonlnn?" Now, Joo, without any hes itation or equivocation, I am going to glvo full credit to tho Oregonlan. I flupposo I am tho former Okln honinn you refer to thnt was on tho executive commlttco of tho Chamber of Commorco when It was called to gether to mako rccommcridntlons for Biiltablo porsoriB (o go on tho port commission. Dr. McCormnc, tho chairman, was tho ono that called that commlttco. I bollevo ho Is an old-timer of 3d years standing. When wo mot I think nenrly nil tho cotn mllteo was present with n standing ears of hnbltatlon from six to Lane County Asset Company Prepares to Build Out of ugene. l Tho Lano County Asset company, which was organized to build from Kugono to Coos Day, appears to bo going ahead with actual work out! of Eugene. The Register of that city says: Thd full b6ntd of directors of tho Lano County Asset company met nnd went over much of tho buslnesd transacted at tho meeting laBt week nnd nff'lrmcd' tho decision to bo tho final setting of stakes for tho grading" fibril Eugono to Elmlra right away. Engineer Fornorl nnd crew arrived from tho coast ns expected and will bo ready within n day or two to go out again. Tho company hns decided to follow tho' section lino from tho end of West, Fifth street, west for n dlatanco of bIx miles to tho Chrtstuer placo, nnd then beg' cutting ncroHH to Elmlra. Tho rn la mndo on tho Bcctlon lino so as to avoid cutting any moro farms than necessary. The company hna decided to nbnndon far tho present tho pro posed lino of Fifteenth street, but will tnko advantago of their track age right with tho Oregon Electric on West Fifth atroot. Kan OREGON'S CHOP DIG. In forty, with tho exception of mysolf. It wnB agreed by tho commlttoo thnt Marshflcld should only recommend throo porBQiiB, two going to North lJenq . J3?. MlnguB nnd Captain Hnrrln woro agreed to unanimously Tho division of tho commlttco enmo when your namo was presented nnd that of vour old-tlmo friend nnd compan ion, Henry Songstncken. engstnek m won. Dr. McCormae,' who had voted for you, had norvo enough to glvo tho rosultB nnd tho recommendn. tlon of tho commlttco, without any Buggcstloii whatever from tho "Ok- lahotnan." Tho committee wns not satisfied thnt their recommendation alono Bhould sufflco, so suggested to Mr. SengstHckon, wlio yob being protest !! against ly yourself and others, that ho should socuro n majority of mombora of tho Chamber of Com morco This ho did, with an addi tional U100 nnmes or moro from tho prominent business interests and far mers of tho bay. So, Joo, If you will exnmlno thnt petition you will find It signed by representatives of threo of tho larg est Interests on tho nay, who employ over 2000 men. a former Oklnhomnn who scnrcoly od by tho showing mndo nnd not by a former Oklnhomnn who sgenrcoly know him. Tho governor has known you for onrs nnd many of tho peti tioners for Songstncken havo known you from 25 to 40 years. They nil know you and know you woll, 80 don't Blnglo out ono poor, former Oklalinmnn nnd jump onto him about your defeat; bo merciful. Now, I will toll you what wo will do with this Oklahoma crowd that you hnvo often lightly referred to: wo will encourage moro of thorn to como here, ns thoy aro all pretty good Indians, nnd Increnso tho pop ulation; wo will soil them property ns wo lmvo In tho past, at from four to flvo times what wo paid for It, "nnd that ought to holp samo." So, bo n gnmo losor, .Too, and eomo on for progress, and don't bo wanting "to bo tho bridegroom at every wed ding or tho corpse at every funornl." Your friend, WILLIAM GRIMES. FIRE IX RUINS.
