A gentleman from Oregon who recently visited the East, returned a few days ago, and concerning the the proposed extension of the Chi cago, liuriingtou ex. yuincy line 10 the coast, said to a representative of the Union Republican that while" en route he chanced to converse with a railroad eugineer on the C. B. & Qi When he informed the engineer he was from Grand Ronde valley the engineer said though hfi had never been in Grand Ronde, and knew nothing about it, yet he would soon become familiar with this section, as he was running & railroad survey and his instructions were to the effect that Grand Rohde" valley was on his route; but when questioned further the engineer would have nothing more to say, stating that he could not make public the intentions of his com pany. It is suppbsed, however j that it is the C. B. & Q. railroad) and that the plan is to build from1 the Yellowstone Park, where they now are, to Boise, thence to Eagle valley and via Catherine creek passJ to Union j and thence on me uuui survey to tidewater, or perhaps across the Cascade mountains ovet connections with the Oregon Pacific; road. Ex. Stealing Populist Thunder: At the republican county con' vention of Clackamas county the V following resolution was adopted: "Resolved, That Vve demand acori stituttonal convention at the earliest possible date for the purpose of re vising the constitution of Oregon1 and including therein the Initiative referendum in its strongest form;" If that isn't a plain case of stealing populist thunder we don't knoV . what It is. '' ia j,- The legislature of Iowa has not in set terms abolished the prohibi- . tory liquor lawi but has provided S way through which liquors may be sold within the state. The new law fixes a tax of $600 year 011 . any real estate upon which liquor is sold, and the payment of this tax" is to be a bar to prosecutions under the prohibitory law when a majorit of the voters in the larger cities,' and 65 per cent, of them hi places not so large, ask such exemption by petition; That isi while prohi bition is nominally maintained, , a. method of local option is devised whereby it may be set aside. In 1882, only 12 years ago, the, first creatnety yas . established inf Denmark. There are now 1,500, there, and nil find sale at a .profit for their entire protjucti tiutthen,! the Danes are probably the finest, dairyman itl the world. In the, management of herds and flocks, they have been distinguished fol; - i 1,000 years, but it was only when American cattle drove the Danish 1 cattle out of , the European mrkets 'that they turned their attention to, dairying, and now nearly all the, farmers are engaged n that industry and prosperity is the result. . . - .-,. . The legislature meets in January,, and the schoolbook men are already-1 making a preliminary canvas of the state preparatory to springing, a change of text books upon the people through the next legislature. " Qregou's. scltool book -law is, one of the numerous statutory monstrosi ties which, need revision at the very, earliest oppotiunityt Milton Ea gle. ' . . The apportionment of the 'five per cent, qjid direct tax road fundSi for 1894 hiiA been made and warrants for the sauje forwarded by the sec retary of state to the various county ' treasures. Under this distribution Lincoln county receives from the ., five per cent, fund $161 and from, the direct ax $283, making a total: of 5484 which will go to swell the road funds cf the cotinty.'
