Columbia Southern will not be
Central Oregon wfll be penetrated
by a railroad, work upon which is to
begin immediately, says tho Oregon
Dally Journal. The route to be fol
lowed, 'In all probability, Is up the
Deschutes river canyon from the Co
lumbia, leaving the canyon at the
southern extremity of the Warm
'Springs Indian rosexvatlon at the
mouth of Trout creek, thence east to
Madras and southward to Bend.
Julius Kruttschnltt, active head of
Han i man's coast lines, has been
ummoned to Pelican lodge. The re
ult of the conference between the.
railroad king and his associate will
be to definitely determine the ioute
Into the Interior and the Immediate
construction of the line. All feasible
routen Into central Oregon having
been surveyed, work will start prob-

Edwnrd H. Hnrrlman has uncork
ed the bottle 'within which he has
held the destiny of central Oregon
ever since central Oregon's destiny
hinged upon the advancement of rail
road transportation.
Harrimnn will build Into the cen
tral portion of the state, without fur
ther delay or parleying. Thedeflnlte
course of the route to be followed
will be made known as soon as Julius
Kruttschnltt, who leaves today for
Pelican Lodge in response to a wire
summons from the railroad magnate,
concludes his conference. '
Jtoad Extended
This much, howevtr, Is certain. The
Columbia Southern will not be ex
tended. The route Is not feasible
from Shanlko southward. Hence, It
will be abandoned. In consequence,
Harrlman has turned his attention to
the Deschutes canyon line from the
Columbia. There Is little doubt but
that within the next few weeks dirt
will brgin to fly in the ravine lead
ing southward where the line will be
constructed until the table land Is
reached at the mouth of Trout oreek
at the southern edge of the Warm
Springs Indian reservation.
An Easy Grade.
Along the entli route the (Trade Is
easy, but the construction work In the
canyon will consume probably double
the time necessary to complete the
line from Madras to Bend. where, ow
ing to the smoothness of the country,
there Is little work detailed aside
from laying the ties and rails.
Ten thousand people In Crook
county alone will wrlcnm? with utinl
loyed Joy tho announcemept of im
mediate railroad construction Into the
Interior the result of the conference
of several days' duration which has
taken place at Tellcan Lodge between
Mr. Harrlman, Governor Chamber
lain, J. P. O'llrlen, general manager
of the 0. R. & N., and Fred S. Stan
lev, head of the Deschutes Irrigation
& Power company of Crook county,
tho largest private Irrigation project
In the United States.
Vast Benefits.
The vast benefits to accruo both
to central Oregon and Portland
particularly the central part of the
state through the realization of
railroad facilities, are so far byond
computation It Is probable that citi
zens of the Interior will give vent to
some remarkable demonstrations
when the news reaches them.
While Mr. Harrlman has given a
definite and conclusive promise that
rail ronstruetlon will begin Imme
diately Into the Interior, and has al
ready summoned his aides and taken
steps to fulfill his Intentions', he In
timates that there must be coopera
tion on the part of the citizens of
Portland and tho Interior, or devel
opment may bo retarded.
For Instance, during his conference
with the governor, Mr. Stanley and
Mr. O'Brien, he referred to the
Southern Pacific's Fourth street line
In this city.
Pica of Poverty.
"Money Is tight," declared the rail
road king. "Financial conditions are
far from having recovered from the
panic of last fall. It has taken ex
treme measures to keep things going.
Personally, I had to pledge securi
ties worth JB. 000,000 to raise money
with which to keep an eastern road
from going Into a receiver's hands.
Hence, expending money on railroad
construction must be done now and
for some time to come with caution.
"We shall probably nsk for an ex
tension of a year's time In removing
our lines from Fourth street In Port
land. To do this work will require
an expenditure of close to $800,000.
If we are compelled to spend that
amount In Portland this fall, It will
seriously handicap any road Into the
Interior. We haven't any too much
money, and practically every state
through which our lines run are
clamoring, Just as Oregon Is clamor
ing, for more rails."
Governor Itftiirn.
Both Governor Chamberlain and
Mr. Stanley, together ' with Mr.
O'Brien, returned enthusiastic over
the result of the conference. If any
doubt as to Harrlman's Intentions re
specting central Oregon are enter
tained, It Is not In evidence.
"Harrlman will build Into central
Oregon," declared Governor Cham
berlain this morning. "He has given
his absolute promise, flat-footed, def
inite and without equivocations. He
has said Immediately, means It, and
hardly before we were out of his
sight he started the wheels by sum
moning Mr. Kruttschnltt for a final
conference before the line Is definite
ly decided upon. Within 60 days at
the outside work will be started on
the long-delayed means of putting the
Interior on a rapidly-developing basis,
Was Intending to Build.
There Is little question," the gov.
ernor continued, "but that Harrlman
fully Intended to build this route last
year. He told us that prior to the
panic he had 88,000,000 In bonds
Juet ready to float for construction
work when the stringency came on
vz course tnat placed a quietus on
every plan. The promise he has giv.
en us now, however, means a fulfill
ment without dtluy of his original
Intention."
That the construction of a road in
to the heart of a section rich In na
tuial resources will prove a mighty
almulus to rapid development, set
tlement and productlqn, Is the view
taken by Mr. Stanley, whose company
has a segregation In Crook county of
300,000 acres -of land, 1000 of them
under Irrigation and upon which
nearly 1 1,000,000 has already been
expended.
"There Is little question that Har
riman Intends building up the Des
chutes canyon, coming onto the ta
ble land at the mouth of Trout creek
so as to tap the wheat raising section
of the Agency Plains, then into Mad
ras and southward to Bend. He In
tlmated as much and I think the
conference with Mr. Kruttschnltt will
result In a definite announcement.

turned over to the redskins upon their
arrival at Cheyenne early next week.
Members of the Frontier day com.
mittee say they know nothing about
the affair one way or the other.
It is known that Indians visiting
Cheyenne In the past have expressed
a desire to enjoy their tribal feast of
hot dog, but have always been pre
vented. Young Sitting Bull, who will
be In charge of the band of warriors,
squaws and pappooses coming to
Cheyenne, next week, has assured thn
Humane people and the Frontier
committee that there will be no cruelty.
The young chief says eating dogs Is
no worse than white people eating
chickens, rabbits and other animals
and for himself he prefers a nice
fat dog to any meat eaten by the pale
faces.
Tho dojs will be shot or knocked
In the head, and thrown Into the
boiling water. After the hides have
loosened the carcasses will be taken
out and the hides skinned off and the
bodies put back Into the water- and
left there until thoroughly cooked.
If th" committee an.l spectators ob
ject to the feast being conducted m
front of the grandstand tt will he en-
Joyed by the reds behind the stands
or In their big tepee.
BETTER RESTAURANT SERVICE.
Under New Management St. George
Grill Regains Popularity.
Under its new management the St.
George restaurant is proving a popu
lar eating place and It gives every
promise of continuing as such. At
present the restaurant management Is
In the hands of the ladies In the din
ing room and the service has been
much Improved.
The St. George restaurant, with Its
first-class modern kitchen and good
dining room equipment. Is well pre
pared to handle a splendid business.
That it will have such is evident from
the manner In which the change has
been received by patrons.

NOT OXLY THE LARGEST, BUT THE BEST COLLEGE IX
EASTERN OREGON.
THE BEST AND MOST UP-TO-DATE TEACHERS EMPLOYED.
Pendleton College will enjoy the largest enrollment It has had for
years, due to the fact, that for two years, and since the college Is
under Its new management, students are being graduate'd In less than
half the usual time required by business colleges. All graduates who
have desired positions, have been placed In excellent paying-positions
by the school. Bookkeepers are graduated in about six months, and
Stenographers In four months and even less. PRIVATE LESSONS IN
BOOKKEEPING, NO CLASS OF MORE THAN FOUR STUDENTS
IN SHORTHAND, Is the secret of the success of the school.
