Temple, an Insurance agent, is in town, having recently visited all tho principal points in the Des Chutes country. He is nn enthusiast about the pros pects of the Dos chutes country and has no doubt but that at Bond, or Cllno's Falls, or in that vicinity, at least, will grow up a town destined to be the metropolis of Central Oro gon as Spokane is of tho district of which it is tiie industrial center. Ho describes that country as having an average elovation of about 3fi00 foot, a large portion of It covered with a rank growth of sage brush, juniper and other aboriginal growths, and only needing the diversion of tho wnt.er now in tho streams, anil other systematic management, to develop into ns fine a country as can bo found in tills latitude anywhere on tho American continent. A fow miles from Bend, and a dis tinct rival to it is Cllno's Falls, at which point Is natural wat.er power rivaling in volume tho water power at Spokane, though the fall Is not so precipitous ns at that point.
