Independence), March 4. -It has been authoritatively reported here that th Southern Pacific will put on a regular train between Corvallls and Portland, passing through thla place early. In th morning and returning In th evening, If this should be done.it means much to this side of the valley as It will give the railroad connections which the val ley has been so long trying to secure, Heretofore the officials of the Southern Paclflo have stated that they would place suoh a service In operation a soon as th traffic would warrant, but the paa senger traffic was not enough to justify th extra expense of the service and they were giving fair service in that they connected with - other tinea and reached most of the principal cities on th west side both for morning and evening travel. But it la said that dur ing the last six months the traffic has been increasing very rapidly, mainly due from th advertising that has been done in eastern states and to the fact that much property has been changing hands and the district is attracting more attention than was heretofore the case. - During th last two years the hop buslneag alone has increased to almost double its former extent, while the stock, dairy, fruit snd vegetable bust neas la more than keeping pace with the increase that la noticeable in other sec tlons. In Polk county there has been In th last, two yeara a very large sale of excellent property. The magnitude of the sales can hardly be estimated without going to the records, but of these sales a llttl Idea can be -gained by considering that Krebbs Bros, invested about IJ0.000. William J.1 Illff some thing over 125,000. Dickinson and E. X Roae each $16.000, . approximately, and Mr. Brown 19.000.

Small saies naver pern very nu merous and It is estimated mat there will easily be 800 acres of hopa placed In the erround during the next year. The dairy business has been keeping rjace - with' the hop business and the creamery here reports a large Increase in the number ot cows and in the quality 6t cattle. The fine grade of goats, hogs and Sheep la becoming well Known every, where and these Industries, coming for ward so rapidly, are doing much to bring this county forward and tor. make the Southern Pacific a larger-trafflo and more extensive freight trade. Five families of Oklahomans arrived here the first of this week and it was Impossible to get homes for them to lo cat in, but two vacant houses were found, to which they have moved until they can secure permanent quarters. They have a carload of material, com lng- from the east and will locate here as soon as they can secure proper ac comodations. The Independence Im- Drovement league haa beerv doing effi cient work in securing these emigrants from the east, and It was literature sent out by the Jlarriman syndicate that caused them to com to this place. G. A, Hurley, who is the Secretary of the league here, states that they were com municating with him prior to their com ing, and tbat he expects a much, larger delegation from Oklahoma and from II? Hnois. These new arrivals state that they are communicating with some 60 families In the feast who are waiting for mors complete reports before 'they decide to leave for the weat.
