It has been tho fashion to consider literary men as of tho ether othurial, and not of the earth earthy, but thu fact is that this groat coast is so compact of earth ami BKy, oi the material ami the Ideal, I hat it is getting the most lavoruulu notonuty at tlio hands of literary eoplo.

Oregon must budpIv us booh with important and necessary com mercial prouucuonii which wu win ceano to croato for ourselves. Tho two btatcH will bo tributary to each other, generating!, mutual prosperity. Oregon lias a climate poft and salubrious by con trast with that of tho Fast, and a soil that is unrivalled for standard crops.

Much talk him been Indulged lit, dur ing tho past year, a-gatding a railroad to lleppner, Alorrow county, from some place on the Columbia riser. It had boon thought quite prubablu that tho 0. H. N. Co. would run it "feeder" up thu Wil low Creek valley to lleppner, us soon as the transportation business of that coun try would justify it; but It seems tho li-oplo of Alorrow county came to thu conclusion they wanted a railroad befuro thu O. H. i: N. Company was ready, or willing to build it. I'hcron K. Fell, tlm indefatigable bunch grass agitator, who does not beliovo in waitini: for something to turn up. org.tiil.ud himself Into a com mittee nl ouu. at mud hlinse f Willi vol uminous ntatisti cs of tho vuxt ro.-wurce.s of tho country ho represented, also with options of puiehasu on all saleable real estate in tho nelghboihood, and sallied loiih resolved to have it railroad to llepp ner or tho scalp of every railroad olllcial from l'oitland to Nuw York. His mi- selllsh ell'oits wow tinjiroduetivo of even a promise of success, until ho met alleged representatives of tho Chicago and North? western. Thoi-o ieoplo wero completely carried away uy inu nattering utsclosuro oi .tir. I'cii. ami they llually said, in be half of their Company, that If thu neotilu who wero to reap it harvest of gold by the Dunning oi siicii it roan would give them a 1 It t lo subsidy the road they should have. This news elcctrllled iho People of .Mor row county. Thoy took it for grunted that tho road was coming. This was a settled fact, but where should tho road terminate. The slumtering jealousy be tween lleppner and Lexington was sud denly kindled to tlame. It would never do to let lleppner gain tho prestige a railroad terminus would secure. With this lor u hubby tho Lexington peo ple started u HiiiMcriptlon pajier, ami raised a bonus of nearly Ilfty thousand dollars, which thoy wero to give the C. & N. V. Company to build thu road to Ixixington and no further, the company having partly promised they would do this for tho b0,000. 'Ihls busi ness was done lat summer. When the lleppner icoplo heard what wits being done, they now tu aims once more. A conference was had with tlio aforesaid Btibsidv (lends, and llmillv an itereunient entered into lhat if tho people would raise the sum of ono hundred thousand dollars to bo paid over when the road was in oieration, they would build the road to lleppner. a corlutti length or time was given the people to raise the money, whuu, it aucccssiul, tho agree ment was to have Itoen signed, lleppner and lAxingtou iooplu shook hands across thu yawning chasm of jealousy oncu more, und touted their issues. F.ach town was to raise liny thousand, 'iho lleppner paper was Boon loaded with the required amount deposited in a safe, and tho I-ox-iiigtou paper was daily expected when suddenly tho news came that it was miss ing, 'lliis created u commotion. Thu matter was thoroughly investigated ; and llmdly, If I ioiiioinwjrriglit.it was decided from evidence adduced, I fiat puillos in the employ of another company who could not sit Idly by and see this valuable territory supping iroin their grasp, had purloined it. 'iho time for raising the money oxpited and tho contract forfeited. .Morrow county enthusiasm, which had been 101 in tho shade for boiiiu time, now droiuicd to zero. Thoy wore getting dis couraged, nut again l ell pushed noniy lo tho front, rallied his forces, doubled his energy, renewed his options, and io solved to win or H'uttur his loiuuius all ovor Hastem Oregon. Thu tieoplu began to woudor what in thu duvil Ihu U. A N. W. wanted forty miles of independent railroad uii in .Mor row county for anyhow j that after all tho O. It, A is. or its Icshcoh were thu only puoplu who could successfully oporuto a road thero, bo thoy resolved to give that company their undivided attention in tho mutter thenceforth; mid they did It. That they have succeeded in interesting them lit tho matter is evidenced by the fact that lut week, by request of .Man ager Ilolcoiub, of tho O. It, it N. C,, u delegation of representatives, men of lleppner and lixiugtou, came to I'ort laud, and a coiifeienco wus held, which resulted in thu proposition of mi agree ment being enteied into, thu terms of which uru that iqioii u guarantee by tho iiooplu Interested of it free right of way to lleppner, and ilojiot grounds hi Hoppnor, the road shall bo built by u ceitaiu time, or tho company aru to foifcit (10,000, tho right of way jiuoplo to forfeit a like sum if they fail to secure said right of way by u special tlmo. A copy of tho projiosed agreement has been forwarded to Charles Francis Ad ams, and it is believed by many iiciboiis hero who aru conversant with thu policy of thu l'nlon 1'aclllo that it will bu ap proved Tho result of theso negotiations dnmnn. strides thu wisdom of dealing with a re sensible company that already has an oxtouslvo syHtoni of railway in oorution In HiIh Stato, with tho rails of which any and all now roads built from tho interior to tho Columbia river, ut uny point west of Wullulu must nccessaiily connect. t must not cioso without saying that for whatever is done in thu matter of it railroad to lleppner. tho eoplo of that section should credit to tho energy and jiersoveranco of .Mr. Fell. Ho lias labored hard and expended no small amount of money lu working up this matter, and those interested should appreciate it. Tun; Lanks. i O. F.
