Wu think there are many, rather than
"few," who believe that we will not grow

gentlenuui to whom he alludes; hut if we
deal with railroad at ull by contract

cil a man who, ho hiijh, Ih "unalterably
opposed to it railroad coming through any
of the HlreetH of the town," Wo do not
think (IiIh ipteHtlon wuh directly audi

rlty and of good littHlneHH ability. Wo
don't know an It wuh generally known
that Mr. Thompson wiw "unalterably
opened to it railroad coming through any
of the HtrcetH of tho town." It wiih er
hitpH generally known that he wiih not
favorably Inclined to that plan; hut not
that ho was "unalterably" so, if by no
other way the railroad could be secured.
Mr, ltothehlld conjures tip a vision of
runaway teams and general wrack and
ruin If thin railroad should bo built along
it street. We think the evil, iih he lms
pictured It, I greatly exaggerated If not
almost entirely fanciful, In tho llrst
placu there would bo but ono or two
train inlay running over the roud, and
they at regular time, which all people
would soon understand. In thu second
place, the apeed through town could be
regulated by ordinance, and train would
not run faster than a team walks. A gin-nod-up
cowboy, on it bucking cuyusu.

almoHt every day I really more danger
ouh than a railroad would be.
After all, admitting all that Mr. ltoth
ehlld says; admitting that tho building
of that road down Alhi struct would he
some damage, would inconvenience some,
would be a source of some little .lunger;
What then?
All may then be Hummed up In thin:
The objections, the Incovenleuce, the
danger, all combined, tiro small, insigni
ficant, hilluiteslmal, compared with thu
great, supremo need. If Mr. ltothehlld
deslresipilot he can have it by resisting
Hits road. If he would have ImihIiichs, he
must let tho ro.id come. Which will ho
prefer, tptlet and tuifo stagnation, or life,
bustle, and business, wllli a littlo noise,
smoke, and need to "stop, look, ami
listen" w hen crossing a certain street at
a certain hour? This Is tho situation in
a nutshell.
The writer went to Walla Walla yester
day. The town Ih alive, IIitlldingH are
going up. Tho HtrcetH are teeming with
people; the storeH with trmlo. livery
body, without exception, who spoke of it,
mentioned "Hunt's road" iih the cause of
It. On the way going up wiih ii farmer
living in the Vansycle region. Ho said
he wiih Intending to build In Pendleton
and keep his family hero must of tho
tlmo hut could not do ho liecatisu the
Hunt road was not completed; and he
said several of his neiglilsirs wanted to
do the same tiling. Some of them have
already gone to Walla Walla or (Vnler
vllle. We doubt not that the completion of
the road would bring four or live hun
dred families hero to trade who now go
elsewhere; and many of them to live.
Hut this is a small item compared with
the enormous increase of products re
ceived here, and the enormous sums
gained or saved on freight on e.Nmrls
and inisirts,
We have another won! or two to say.
Wo have hoard two tilings Intimated hi
connection with this business. One is,
that the owner of the "gravel liar," the
projmsed deMit grounds, ilenlre to sell
out that property nt a fancy figure. Now
tho llrst obstacle to remove, then, I for
these gentlemen, to openly, publicly
make some reasotiahle proposition on that
point, saying just what they will do,
Unless they do thi the Last Oukoomas,
for one, will have to drop tho tight. And
they should do thin tit once, and male
the price and terniH reasonable. Indeed,
they ought to make the price very low.
Thlsot Itself would Ih a wonderful en
couragement. The other intimation Ih that the Kaht
OiikooMak Ih paid by Mr. Hunt to take
up this matter thim vigorously. We
simply Hay that any such statement, or
intimation, or insinuation, is wholly false
and without tho least foundation what
ever, Mr. Hunt ha not ald, nor ban lie
promised to pay, or Intimated or sug-j
geMed that he could, would, or might inv, I
in any way, dheetly or indirectly, u dollar '
or a cent to the Kiht Okkooman or to any
ersoii connected therewith for our ellbrts
in this direction, or for anything wo are1
