Waite of Sutherlin was in the city a few days ago and stated that he had a deal practically closed to transfer his tract of land the other side of m Bear cieek to an Oakland syndicate who will colonize it next year. There is about 2,000 acres in the Waite tract, and street rumors have it that several thousand acres additional are included Jn the deal. The Simons-Selling tract is known to be on the market, and if, as rumored, there is lii,0i." acres in the deal, this tract of 5,000 must be included. The Tidings has endeavored to de termine just how much and what land is involved; but beyond the fact that a former partner of F. G. Mc Williams, now in Oakland, w rote him regarding the Waite tract, can learn nothing. Mr. McWilliams states that the gentleman is a millionaire and fully able to carry out the coloniza tion scheme.
