It la all on account of a railroad that has been building south from forvallls for tho pat year, the destination of which la supposed to bo tho I.ake I'reek country, and the route for which has been first located in one direction and then in another. The grader and construction rew were put to work Tuesday on tho C. H. Star place, a mile west of the C'orvallis Alonroe survey, and on thu line thHt hart been laid out through the "near Jtellfuuntaln" way, hut on Tuesday niKht orders came, to quit work and awatt further developments. In the meantime Mr. Carver had had a final Interview with the Monroe peo ple, and all being satisfactory In a financial way, tho construction of the line to Monroe has been decided upon. Just what bearing this will have on ttie donations from citizens or Heiirouniani. who subscribed to tho promotion scheme of the C'uivalllH fe Alsea railway on the expectation of the line being built near ltellfountain, is problematical. It Is ex pected that a lawsuit will result before It Is settled. Since tho Oregon & California rail road company surveyed and purchased n right of wav from Corvallls through Monroe and on to a connection with Its east side road In I.ano county, over 25 years ago, people hnve been crying for railway connection with the outside world. It seems now that their hopes are about to berealized. as the C. A. rallroa! line is in operation to within four miles of Monroe, as soon as possi ble tho actual woik of building will1 begin.

Imrlnir the last session of parliament the 'onservat 1 ves carried on a most de termined campaign against the Iaurler government, based on alleged scandal ous transactions. The gravest charges centered about land deals and timber steals, so-called. In the western coun try, of which Saskatchewan forms a part. It is generally believed that Sir Wilfred l.aurler selected the western province, out of which so many scandals have come, to test public opinion in the west.

This will be the formal beginning of an ag gressive fight which is to be carried n without a letup until the day of elec tion. Judge Parker will arrive Tuesday morning lroin San l-'ranclsco and will be met and taken In charge by a re ception committee which has been ap pointed, consisting of Frederick H. Ho nian. John M. (Jearin. Charles K. Henry, Thomas H. Jreene, Senator J. K. Hedges of Oregon City. I 'an Fry of Salem, Sam L. (Garland of Irf-banun and Iark Hllyeu of Kugene. The details for the entertainment of tho judge during the day have not yet been arranged. W'llllam H. Holmes of Salem has young fellow and universally popular, and his many friends trust that his second marriage will prove happier then his first. He is one of the few English men of title who married1 American heiresses who cannot be charged with having wedded for money. Though tho father of his American bride, Mr. W'i- nans, Is Immensely wealthy, still It is to be doubted if his fortune is equal to that possessed by the young baronet. The mother of the latter was a daugh ter of Sir Robert Loder. who left a fortune of pome $30.000.nnti, of which she received the larger share, and which descended to her son. I boon chosen to preside as chairman of tho mooting at which Judge Porker will open tho campaign.
