SOCIALISM A CONSPIRACY.
..!
Whene'er we see a fellow-mnn
arise above the crowd.
While we against the hard
ships pound and buck,
We're apt to feel dejected and
dissatisfied with life.
And marvel at the other fel
low's luck.
And he who took the upward
step relaxes not n whit
His mighty perseverence and
his pluck
You see, ho knows as no one
else, the tfars and years
he spent
At hardest kind of work to
make that luck.

The Eastern Oregon papers that
are republishing the space-filling In
terviews from Portland papers, con
cerning the Lewiston-Huntlngton
"Water-level" railroad, forget thnt the
same story passes around each winter
when news becomes scarce.
Is It reasonable to believe that the
O. It. & N. Is going to run a road,
costing Incalculable millions, through
the Impassable Snake river canyon,
from Huntington north to Lewlston,
making the distance from Huntington
to Portland nearly 200 miles greater
and ISO miles of that road through a
country that does not yield, or can
ever yield any great volume of pro
duce? A boat line, with two small river
boats on the Upper Snake and a
branch road into Wallowa county
from Elgin, surveys for which have
already been made, will cover tho en
tire territory that would be covered
by this proposed I-wIston-Huntlng-ton
road.
And further, if the O. H. & N. stock
holders had In mind the future aban
donment of tho Umatilla-Huntington
line, they would not now be expend
ing millions of dollars annually In
track and station betterments on this
jtortion of the road.
The O. U. & N. from Umatilla to
Huntington has just been relald with
SO, 85 and 90-pound steel rails, costly
steel bridges have been put in place
of wooden structures, millions of
yards of gravel have been hauled over
the line for ballast and millions of
dollars appropriated for further bet
terments are still unused.
There Is no Immediate probability
that the 212 miles of track from
Huntington to Umatilla will be reduc
ed to the humble degree of a "local
branch." The main line of the trans
continental Harriman Bystem will run
through Baker City, Ii Grande and
Pendleton for many years yet.
It would be cheaper and more prac
tical for the company to cut a tunnel
4,000 feet long through a spur of the
Blue mountains between the head
waters of tho Five Points and Butch
er creek. In tho vicinity of Huron, and
reduce the grade 70 per cent over tho

tho Portland Flouring Mills will

flour every 24 hours. Every 11 days
in the month this great mill will load
a 5,000-ton steamer with Oregon flour

Invitation of Mr. Dosch to lucrease
