I0ISE TO COOS Eliii I .-.-i-i - . OREGON RACE STEAMER i ruruLHiiun claim That Survey Is Being Made Through Eastern Oregon Now. ROSCDURG, Ore, Jnn. 30. Tho losoburg News prints tho following: 'Surveyors, poBlng ns geological en gineers, who hnvo been working from Snlnion City to Lowlston, ldn., nro now snld to be In tho service of the Ollmoro & Pittsburg. Tholr operations nro regarded ns confirm ing n report from Portland, Ore., thnt this road Is nbotit to begin tho building of Its Hue between the points where those men have been nt work. Another fact having tho lame effect Is tho purchase of 1,000, 000 ties, to bo delivered at Salmon City. Tho Ollmoro & Pittsburg Is an un dertaking thnt up to this time has been a subject of moro or loss specu lative gossip as to whether It Is In dependent or has behind It some es tablished and strong railroad Inter est. At one time the latter Idea did not seoin to bo wnrranted, owing to developments suggesting that Its promoters wcro In trouble, or clso had had differences with n flnnnclnl ihouso In Pittsburg, through which its obligations wero being settled. There still remains an element of uncertainty rolntlvo to tho cntor prlso that not a few pcoplo would like to sco removed. This much Is conclusive" If It Is really to bo nn Independent rond, eventually the Hill and Hnrrlmnn systems hnvo iiomo strong competition to meet later an, A citizen of Ilosoburg recently re ceived a letter from n friend In HoIse, Idnho, who says thnt tho Im pression prevails to a certain extent In Boise thnt this railroad will bo extended westward through Central Oregon to tho const, passing through Ontario and Ilosoburg. Surveys have been mado through Dolso', nno nlso through Emmott, Idaho, nnd tho general direction of theso sur veys indicate tho rond is headed for Coos nay through Central Oregon. In nil probability this cast nnd west Centrnl Oregon lino will bo establish ed beforo tho completion of tho Pan- i nma Canal, tho principal obstruction I nt this time, it Is claimed, being tho misguided rapacity of tho owners of Coos Day terminal grounds. Thoro seems to bo no desire on tho part of Coos Day property holders to on rourngo tho building of n railroad, although tho Coos country needs transportation moro than anything l else. However, with tho natural ad vantages offered, oven tho selfish ness of its citizens will not prevent the establishment of terminals, and the railroad to Coos Dny via Roso- I burg will materialize, nnd tho sec t tlon between Rosoburg nnd tho bny bo In operation beforo tho competi tion of tho cnnnl. Tho average citi zen does not renllzo how vnluablo this lino will bo to Roseburg. It will plnco this city practically on tide wnter, and ennblo our mer chants to ship In goods at water rates, thus materially reducing freight rntes, nnd do away for all time with tho Portland local, which Is n fat rake-off for tho S. P., and also release tho Portland Jobbers' hold on this territory nnd permit the establishment of Jobbing houses in Itoseburg. It will not only bp a benefit to Roseburg, but to all South ern Oregon, and such rates as $11.70 from San Francisco to Roseburg and $5 from Portland to Roseburg, com pared with J5.20 from San Francis co to Portland will disappear rapid ly. Tho S. P. will also set out cars in Roseburg without charging the freight from San Francisco to Port land plus tho local rate from Port land to Roseburg, as is now the case on such shipments. Our fruit grow ers can deliver fruit to terminals at Coos Day for water transportation to Now York city and other Eastern points with less than a 100-mllohaul by rail, and this short haul will not permit very high charges being made by the railroad.
