Sherman county is booming in conse
quence of the extension of tho Columbia
Southern Railroad south from Moro, nc
cording to Archie Mnson, the contractor
in chargo of that work, who is visiting
ills family in Portland says the Oregon
inn. The track is now lMd 22 miles
south of Moro, and tho roadbed finished
for 10 miles further. There are over 400
men whites and Jape at work, and
Mr. Mason expects to seo the rails laid
to Shaniko, the terminus, by April 15.
New settlers are bnilding cabins on
the prairies in all directions, he says,
and all the ngriculturnlland in Sherman
county is likely to be taken up under
the homestead act, this spring. Many
of these newcomers are plowing and
sowing, and the acreage set to grain will
be the largest in the history of the
county.
Building has begun in the new me
tropolis of Shaniko. A hotel, saloon
and several business houses are in
progress of erection, while slockyarde
and grain warehouses are being built at
points along the new line. It is ex
pected that 30,000 sheep will be shorn
and dipped in Shaniko this season, the
wool being shipped away by rail. A
number of business men of Moro and
The Dalles, are preparing to establish
branch houses in Shaniko.
Rourbon, a new town, has been started
on the line eight miles south of Graes
Valley, and this is going to be quite
an important point, as a large grain
growing and sto:kraising country will be
tributary. The town of Kent, five miles
soiUheviat of Bourbon, will be moved to
the line, and a sidetrack will be con
structed at Wilcox, eight miles south of
Kent. A depot nnd water lank are to
be constructed at Graes Valley, where
two bi; warehouses are -already nearly
completed. The telegraph line will be
extended from Waeco to Shaniko right
uway.
"Wheat looks splendid," says Mr.
Mason, "and ull signs point to an im
mense crop as well as a large acreage.
If grain is only a fair price next fall,
Sherman county farmers will have
twenties to throw at the birds."
I'aul Alnlir Visits AhtorlH.
We take the tallowing from the As
toria Daily news :
"The visit of Mr. Paul Mohr here yes
terday was on the invitation of Dr. Aug.
C. Kinney and the object was to point
out a proper place for a wheat ware
house. It is understood that Dr. Kin
ney and Mr. Samuel D. Adair each have
suitable water front on the 83uth side of
Young's bay which they are willing to
donate for the purpose. Mr. D. K.
Warren also stands ready to give ample
warehouse room on the Skipanon at
Warrenton. Mr. Mohr says the gradinit
of the portage railroad is now practically
finished and that iu ten days it will be
turned over to the owners by the con
tractors. This is a mouth in advance of
the contract time, and Mr. Mohr says
the portage system will be in operation
by June 1st or 15th from present indi
cations. He also says the company has
contracts with wheat growers for freight
sufficient to insure the enterprise pay
ing. He also gives out the information
that the farmers of the Grand Ronde
valley and around Baker City have 30
miles graded on a railroad from that
country to tap the Columbia and con
nect with lib portaee system. This they
offer to the Spokane company free and
oiler to grade ull the balance of the line,
except the rock work, free if the Spo
kane people will take tho road and finish
and operate it in connection with the
Mohr road. Mr. Mohr returned to The
Dalles last night, but expects to be back
in Astoria within a week."
